ally dissolved by the Supreme Court.
The Democratic Doctrine is to
lower the tariff so that the great
corporations of this country which
now control the necessities of life
will have to sell those necessities at
reasonable prices else we will buy
them abroad.
1t has been clearly demonstrated
that no industry of this country
needs protection from tariff laws
because our factories are already
selling goods abroad cheaper than
they do to the American consumer,
so that the tariff merely enables
them to plumber the American peo-
pie. Mr. Taft and the republican
party cannot side track the tariff
issue.
The Harrison times., 1911-12-23
The Paramount Issue

President Taft is trying to side,
track the tariff issue and raise the
trust question. If there is anything
that President Taft is ashamed OF
in the record of his administration,
it is the tariff record he and his
party have made,
The battle which has for its object
the winning Of the Presidency in
1912 is now on. MIR. Taft like all
other stalwart republicans is doing
everything in his power to obscure
and side track the tariff issue SO
that the great monopolieS and
trusts can continue enriching them
selves at the expense Of the public,
The people Of this country are
now thoroughly convinced that the
robber tariff under which we are
now living and suffering is the
mother of the trusts The republl-
can party and President Taft do not
want that old mother" harmed
but they want her to live in health
and flourish while he goes through
the operation Of painting harmless
red streaks on her offspring the
trusts, like a clown at a circus and
tries to make the public believe that
those stripes are real cuts,
y BY the enforcement of the anti
trust law the Standard Oil Co. and
the Tobacco 60. are supposed to
have dissolved and to be cut into
several pieces. But they are not
cuts at all but merely painted
stripes entirely harmless and the
Standard Oil and Tobacco Co, are
doing business and gouging the peo-
pie Just the same way and Tor the
benefit of the same people as they
did did before they were theoretle-

Anent the Cow Question

which we want to add an endorse
ment, and at the same time carry
the question little farther,
Not only is the property Of the city
of Harrison and the people living i'll
it broken, defaced or destroyed, but
hundreds of farmers and trades pco-
pie come to Harrison bringing hay,
grain. etc, besides feed for their
teams. The half starved town COW
meets them at the city limits, fol-
lows them into towny and when the
stop proceeds to empty the wagon
before the owner can unhitch, There
are certain quarters in large cities
where a stranger dare not go unless
accompanied by guard The same
conditions exist in Harrison in re-
gard to the farmer and the town

There is an organized effort on the
part of the business men of Harrison
to induce more manufacturing enter

all right and ought to have the ap-
proval of every person in thecounty,
as well as in Harrison; but a good
many business men are like a cross
eyed man--they do not shoot where
they look, They belong to the Com

other organizations, and at the

represented in the relay championships at
Franklin Field. Philadelphia, April %.
Information to this effect was given out
at the o street school yesterday, and the
entry has been filled out and forwarded
to the authorities in Philadelphia This
will mark the first season that the o
street school has been represented since
the days OF Ed Kemper, Wallace, Clagget
and Wilson. This four made the trip in
1907. and came within an ace of bring
ing home the bacon. Had il not been for
the fact that one of the runners slipped
and fell in rounding a turn, the team
would have undoubtedly COPIED first place.

others being eleven classes below.
Although it has not been definitely de-
cided just who will run in the event, ii rs
