PRESIDENT MADERO
may. BUY ARMS
IN AMERICA
PRESIDENT TAFT WILL ALLOW
MUNITIONS OF WAR TO
CROSS BORDER.

Washington, March 30.--President
Francisco Madero has decided upon a
vigorous campaign against the rebels
and the American government has
consented to permit the shipment from
the United States of arms and am
munition for his soldiers These inn
portant developments In the compli-
Gated Mexican situations were learned
here today.
1t Is the intention of President Ma
dero to replcnish dis diminished army
with fresh recruits. throwing them
around the stronghold Of the rebels.
The problem of armng them has been
slmplified by n decision of the United
States, authorizing by special permis-
sion in each case the Mexican govern
ment to purchase mnnition of war
here and ship them across the border
Under this policy three consgnments
of arms and ammunition already have
gone into Mexico
President Authorized.
The joint resolut'an o. ~ongress un-
der which President Taft's recent
proclamation forbidding the exporta-
tions of munitions or war, was issued
authorized the president TO make ex-
ceptions at his discretion. The at
tltude of President Taft, as explained
by officials here. Is 10 permit thf
Mexican government to buy whatevel
1t pleases In this country. This Is NJ
violation of neutrality II In added, as
the belligerency of the revolutionists
has not been recognized Extreme
precautions will be taken to prevent

The farmers and millers OF the
Central and Western States have de-
pended largely on foreign markets in
the past for their living. We have
been accustomed to the idea that we
were q great food-eXporting nation.
But the picture is now changed, and
expectation OF wheat and -four no
longer reigns in our export trade;-
our manufactures have taken their
place, now forming over forty-five
per cent OF our total exports, while
foods of all kinds have sunk to eigh-
teen per cent. With such figures be-
fore him the American farmer can

bed by surreptitious tariff tax. The
time will soon come, under the growth
of our own population, when our
farmers will have al they can do to

TUESDAYS ELECTION.

Before the next issue OF The AID
VOCATE the country will know the
result of the Presidential and Con-
gressional Election.
1t il regarded as almost foregone
conclusion, that Woodrow Wilson
will be elected by an overwhelming
majority. and that the House of Rep
resentatives will increase its Demo
cratic majority, and that possibly the
Senate may be also Democratic, thus
putting the whole machinery of gov
eminent in the hands OF our good and
safe old party. This would be a
marvellous achievement but is not
unlikely to occur.
There are several things the Demo
Gratis expect to settle at the coming
election.
First, we expect to settle the tariff
question, giving to the people tariff
for revenue only" a condition to
which they have been entitled for
fifty years, but have been deprived
OF.
Second, we expect TO settle the Bull
Moose party, and lay Roosevelt the
big Bull Moose, on the political shelf
for the balance of his life, while the
people will sing canticles OF JOY and
thanksgiving that such a saint has
gone to his rest.
Third, We expect to settle and close
UP the affairs Of the late Republican
party, sell out. its assets and use the
money, If it will hold out, to buy O
plain tombstone to mark the resting
place Of the deceased.
Fourth, we expect TO settle Wood
row Wilson in the White House, thus
installing one OF the greatest and
most capable men who has ever gone
into the Office OF chief Magistrate of
the country

pile up the majority for Wilson, Mar

There Is an increasing demand for
dwellings In Westminster, and the
supply Is far short of the demand.
There is seldom q week passes that
some one does not tell us of his wish
TO rent house, either furnished or
UNFINISHED, and there are people
who intend to buy property and set
tie here In the near future. They
recognize the fact that Westminster
is very desirable place OF residence.
But there are so few houses to be
had here. Now 1t seems to US that it
would be a mighty good thing for
some OF our enterprising business
men to build houses and boom West
minister. The growth OF the town
and its business industries are stifed
by present conditions No large
manufacturing enterprise could 10
cate here because we could not house
its employees There Is every reason
why Westminster should build and

The Farmer is in no wise benefited
by a protective tariff which taxes his
clothing, his agricultural implements,
his means OF transportation and many
articles that enter into his daily con-

must be sent three or four thousand

compete with the labor of the serfs

THE COUNTRIES EXPERIENCE
WITH A REVENUE TARIFF.

WITH A REVENUE TARIFF.
"A tariff for revenue only" Is not
an experiment in the United States,
We had such a tariff from 1916 until
1860, of which MIR Blaine writes i'm
his Twenty Years Of Congress, g.
1.-THE tariff of '46 was yielding abund-
ant revenue, and the business of the
country was in flourishing condi-
ton at the time his (Taylor's) admin
istration was organized. Money be-
came very abundant. large enterpris-
es were undertaken, speculation was
prevalent, and for a considerable per
iod the prosperity OF the country was
general and apparently genuine
The principles embodied in the
tariff of '46 seemed for the time to
be 50 entirely vindicated and approx
ed that resistance to ii ceased, not
only among the people but among
the protective economists, and even
among the manufacturers to a large
extent"
This is the testimony of a protec-
zionist and the political historian of
the time, The fact is that during
that period manufacturing was not
forced by a dollhouse process to pro-
duce high-priced goods for popular
consumption, but was gradually en-
couraged and developed on a health
tul and self-sustaining basis, not to
DC shaken as a reed in the wind by
every change in the financial world.
Commerce made great advances, and
our carrying trade grew SO rapidly
that in ten years from the day the
tariff OF rs was passed our tonnage
exceeded the tonnage of England.
All the great interests of the coun-
try were symmetrically developed
under this revenue tariff; manufac-
lures were not stimulated at the eX-
pense of the commercial interest.
Both were developed in harmony,
while agriculture, the indispensable
basis of all, was never more flourish
ing. The farmers and planters at no
preceding period of our history were
in receipt Of such good prices. stead
lily paid to them i'm gold coin, for
their surplus product, which they
could send to the domestic market
over our own railways, and to the
forerign market in our own ships.
How in the face of such an ideal
commercial and industrial condition
OF the country brought about by a
tariff for revenue only the oppo-
nents of the system can prophesy
disaster to the business interests,
should the country return to that
system again, is only to be explained
by that intense selfshness which
blinds one to the welfare of the many
and makes 1t impossible to surrender
an advantage no matter how obtain
ed.

hard times should the Democrats sue
