OUR STATE NEEDS
PROTECTION MOST
OHIO HAS THE PROTECTED IN.
TERESTS OF BOTH EAST AND
THE WEST.
SUGAR, WOOL AND STEEL
Producers Would Be Ruined by a
Revenue Tariff - Senator Lodge
Shows What Democrats Would Do
by What They Tried to Do.

The Democratic party of the house
also undertook to revise the tariff by
separate schedules You therefore
are not in the dark as to what they
will do with the tariff if they are
placed in full control of the govern
ment. They will pass the bills which
were defeated, either in the senate
or by the presidents veto, and place
them as laws upon the statute books
There is no state in the Union SO
widely interested in the protective
policy as the State of Ohio. In my
have an enormous interest, owing to
our great and varied manufactures
but we do not raise sheep and we do
not produce sugar. The states of the
far West have few manufactures, but
they produce sugar in large quanti-
ties and raise great herds of sheep.
In Ohio you have enormous manufac-
turing industries and you are also
sheep-raising and sugar-making
state. There is no state which is so
tariff as is Ohio. Take sugar, for in
stance. You have recently established
a great beet sugar factory in this
state, in which there is general pub
lie interest, and I think the governor
of your state was present at the lay
ing of the cornerstone of the building
The effect of that factory is to bene-
fit all the farmers in the neighbor-
hood and give possibilities of profit
to that region of Ohio such as it has
never before known.
What They Did to Sugar.
How did the Democratic house pro-
pose to treat sugar? They put sugar
on the free list. They threw away
over $50,000,000 of revenue raised
by form of taxation which is scarce
ly felt, on an article which has not
risen in price as all other articles of
necessity have risen, and by this
proposition they would not only have
destroyed Louisiana cane, but they
would have closed every beet sugar
factory in the country. This is no
mere fancy conjured up to alarm
those who are interested in this in
dustry. 1t is the plainest matter of
fact which every one can understand. |
Beet sugar, from the time when Ma
poleon started it's production in
France, 100 years ago, to the present
day, has never been able to exist
without bounties or protective duties,
which have been given to it because
it has been the general opinion of
civilized mankind that every country
ought to be independent in regard to
this great necessity of life. In other
words, if all duties and all bounties
were removed from sugar the tropical
cane would extinguish the beet sugar
industry everywhere. But if we re-
move our duties which now protect
our beet sugar industry we not only
meet the competition of the tropical
cane, but we shall be overwhelmed
by the highly protected beet sugar of

SEASON OPENS
NEXT

The baseball season will officially
open at the Valley City normal school
on Monday when the team will meet
the mel from Moorhead normal.
The men have been out to practice
here consistently during the past few
weeks and this game is expected to
give the management a line upon the
team that will represent the school
during the season..
In Mondays game there will be a
considerable change from what is ex-
pected to prevail later on. Gust An
derson and Christensen are expected
to be in the pitchers box with o. An
derson as catcher. Chester Smith
seems to have no difficulty in holding
down the first sack. Wickstrom will
be on second. Green at short and
Gardner on third. In the out field
the playing rests between Bleese, An
derson. Boucher. Markeson and
Moorsback.

Lovers Of the great old game will
have an opportunity to see what
promises t "a he a good exhibition to-
morrow afternoon. when the Picketts
will meet the fast Fosston. (Minn.)
team. Fosston has strengthened the
entire lineup for the trip to East
Grand Forks and the Picketts nave
likewise selected the best players OBJ
tainable for this contest.
The Picketts have had n workout
this season with the White SoN. This
game afforded an opportunity to see
the weak spots and since this contest
Eddie McIlraith's boys have gotten
down to real business and put in some
mighty hard work whenever the
weather would permit. The Picketts
will enter the ganle strong tomorrow.
They are due to give the visitors a
trimming.
Anyhow. this will be a time for the
fans to show their appreciation of
baseball and they will no doubt turn
out in large numbers and help the
boys along. The game will be called

Importance Of this affair." a y Mr..
Apperson. because we value highly
our experiences. More especially is
this tru as racing actually taught us
the proportion between wheel base,
wheel diameter and spring suspension.
Another thing Herbert Lyle, who
has always presided at the wheel. is
our branch manager at Indianapolis,
and is too busy selling cars to devote
thirty or forty days to practice work.
Again. it would be taking too much
of Elmer Apperson's and my atten-
ton to prepare a couple of cars for
the event. and we can do our dealers
more good along regular lines.
However. we will all be at the
ring side on the big day, and feel con.
1dent that the trophy will go to some
other American car. And there is
no reason why 1t should go out Of the
states"

Winnipeg is ready to help the west,

being mentioned as manager. and as
the Maroons have two other receivers

help the old Maroon leader build up a
