ALL DUE TO THE "ROBBER
TARIFF"

Under the Dingley Tariff the duty
on ham and bacon was S cents a
pound, under the present law 4
GEMS; fresh meats under the old
law cents, under the present one
~ cents; the duty on live stock is
the same, yet the price of all kinds
of meat has gone up several times
more than the Tariff. Under the
old law there was duty Of IS per
cent on raw hides; now they are
free. The duty on boots and shoes
and leather goods was materially
reduced, but the price of boots and
shoes and of all leather goods has
been raised IS per cent. The Tariff
on wood pulp was materially re-
duced, yet paper is higher; you
must even pay more for a Bible.
Hundreds of articles on the free
list have been advanced a3 much or
more than others. In other nations
prices have advanced the same as
here, in Free Trade England and
Protected Germany. And yet we
are told that all this is due to the

ECONOMY OF LYING.

Economy consists in getting the
largest return possible for money or
energy expended. 1t does not
necessarily mean doing without.
L may be necessary to go without
things, but this may be deprivation
to the poor and nlgardliness to the
rich. Economy consists in wise
expenditure.
Americans are great wealth
producers; they are well developed
ia the art of "money making" but
are deficient in the art of economic
expenditure. They have had SO
many things 10 enjey, accessible to
all who use the opportunity 10
obtain them, that they are free,
careless and wasteful spenders.
They have not yet learned the art
of selecting out of rhe multitude of
enjoyable things offered, those that
yield the largest measure Of satisfac-
ton to necessity, of comfort or of
luxury.
The recent high prices should
teach us that it costs us more to
live than is necessary because of a
lack of the art of economic con-
sumption. Periods of extreme high
prices, like periods of industrial
depression, bring US lessons of
economy. We find that with care
in expenditure, we can obtain that
which will yield large return OF
happiness on less expenditure. We
cannot have everything, and we
learn to select economically on the
basis of utility and service.
The instinct for acquisition
develops a passion for buying which
becomes a well defined habit.
Multitudes follow the advertise.

gains. They are not happy unless
they are buying something. Go to
their homes and fad the number OF
articles purchased on a passing
whim or desire for novelty, which
do not return one per cent on the
investment for real benefit OIL
pleasure. Books are purchased
which are practically valueless,
when care in selection would have
obtained a good book at the sam e
price. Furniture aud bric-a-brac,

In articles of dress, waste is con

things must be bought whether
needed or not. Imitation, desire

people to buy the latest style even
though less beautiful than the old.
Clothing thus becomes an extraVa-
ganee because certaiR commercially
inclined people who make the
fashions, change them for revenue

body else bat when he settles his
bill at the end of the month and
finds it $40 instead of the $Io 1t
used to be, he must not blame high
prices bat attribute the extra cost
TO advanced ideas of living.
He is now buying better and
higher priced goods in all
departments than he ever did before.
The old cheap eoffees that he
thought good enough at one time
are now discarded for better grades.
The system of inspection under the
pure food law makes it almost
impossible to get adulterated
articles.
They are purer and better and
nence higher.
the sales in the drygoods
departement average much higher
grade of goods than of old. The
cottons are materially higher than
formerly. Other lines have not
advanced much except as higher
| grades are bought.
Formerly the good wife bought
the fruits in the ssmmer and fall
and put it up in various shapes for
winter use. Now high priced
AIMED goods are bought.
The farmer is now having his
nning. Everything we buy of him
$ very high.
We should not begrudge him his
,eason of prosperity, for he has had
long time to wait.
Those who blame the tariff for
hese high prices must be either
| 1isinformed or dishonest. Have
,ou not noticed that almost every
thing that has materially advanced
either on the free list or on a
educed schedule, for example:
Bacon and ham reduced from S to
cents per pound.
Beef reduced from to ~ cents
Der pound.
Pork reduced from to ~ cents
per pound.
Lard reduced from to ~ cents
per pound.
Pou try remains the same.
Horses, cattle, sheep and mules
remain the same.
Wheat and wheat -four the same.
Thus we see that the tariff ha:
nothing to do with the advance in
prices of our living commodities.
Though farm products are high
as compared with previous years
they are none too hight to bt
properly remuRerative to the farmer
considering the money he has in
vested and the continued care anC
hard labor he is compelled to be-
stow on his business.
We find we must look somewhere
) else for the greatest factor in higi
prices to the consumer. The rail

consumer, more than we think fai

No Egg Trays for Apples.

About a month ago there was an
agent through this valley with a
scheme for packing apples. His
scheme was a cardboard tray similar
to that used for packing eggs. He
made claims that he had sold these
apple trays for use by the growers
all over the northwest. He took the
mater up with the local dealers but
no sales were made, and now the
eastern commission houses have pass
ed on these trays, saying that they
are impractical, owing to the variety
of sizes of the apples and also to the
additional cost which it means to the
growers. These trays alone would
cost approximately 20 cents per box
