to another, but it is only within a
decade that its remarkable adapt

become evident to all. When Xerxes

In spite of the fact that millions
of acres are devoted to the cultivation
of this plant the price of alfalfa on

Alfalfa is called the poor mans

It's friends call it the greatest of

Lake made the opening statement
of the defense. He said the defense
admitted that the shot that killed
Joe Carroll was fired by the de-
PENDANT and that he was willing to
have that statement written into
the record of the case. He out
lined the defense to eTemotional1
insanity. He claimed. that CarrdllJ
had obtained considerable money
from the defendant and refused to-
give it back to her. That he was
trying to shake her. That before
she fired the shot Carroll kicked
her. That her mind was a blank as!
to what happened in the the alley
the night of the killing.
After Judge King concluded,
Judge Brown adjourned court until
10 o'clock Saturday forenoon.
Charles Sykes, the step-father of the
defendant, was the first witness

PENDANT was subject to SPELLS of in
sanity and that she was now con-
fined in the Utah insane asylum.

next witness. He testified to the
defendants physical and mental
condition since she had been con-
fined in the county Jail.

TARIFF IS a TAX

Import duties are no more than a
tax. The people fare paying the
tax in the form of increased prices
of food stuffs, clothing and rents.
The tax thus paid does not all go
to the government, but principally
to the Golfers of the Tariff Trust.
In a notable address at Columbia
University to the Academy of Polit-
ical Science, IA. B. Farquhar, a
prominent manufacturer, gave the
above clear cut definition of the
word protection"
Whether for good or for i'll"
declared this economic student,
the tariff tax is actually tax, and
it is treating the people unfairly to
deny, disguise or conceal its actual
effect in increasing the living ex-
penses of the great mass of our
citizens the consumers Of pro-
tected goods.
ut is estimated that in 1903
the cost of living was nearly IL
per cent higher than it would have
been without tariff. Hence cal
culating that the average family
consumed $941 worth of supplies
per annum its increased payment
on account Of the the tariff was
Sill. Of this Sill, $3.50 went
to the government in collections
and $94.50 went to the trusts in
higher prices. Of this $94.5O
1925 was on woolens, more than
SIT on. other clothing, Sc. % on furn-
iture, $4.25 on beef and mutton and
pork, $1,000 on building material,
and so on.
I'm 1910 the cost of Giving being
15 per cent higher, the average
family pays $1,000 Of which 10 pc per
cent, or $1O8, is attributed to the
trusts and other protected in
terests. 80 ' u
Since the scale of average prices
rose 81 per cent between 1896 and
1910, while the rise in free-trade
England was about q or 80 per
cent, it is significant that our pro-
tective tariff must have played an
important part in making the
difference.
The true fight for US is not
against the existence of corpora
lions, but against their abuses.

profits, but take away the exor-
