Bull Moose Weak In oreoon.

Straws indicate the course OF the
wind with respect to the Bull Moose
party, which, II We may believe its
leaders, cherishes hopes OF sustain
ed and enlarged existence as force
In the political life of the country.
The latest comes from Oregon, where
the Moose movement was strong
enough last year to break the con-
troll of the regular Republican party
and give the vote of the state to the
Democrats. Practically the old-tlme
Republican vote of two-out-of three
was divided between Roosevelt and
Taft. But current registrations lndl.
cate that the Moose movement; has
passed.
The plain significance of these fig.
ures. taken from counties widely sep
arated. Is that those who left the Re.
publican party to vote the Roosevelt
ticket acted under temporary motives
and that they are returning to their
normal party affiliations. And II this
be true in Oregon, where under In
SEPARATIONS OF very exceptional kind
the Roosevelt movement was very
strong, 1t would seem to give assur,
ance of what is happening or what
Will happen elsewhere.

loss of life did not reach Juneau un-

with some of the passengers and crew
who had been rescued from the icy
waters.
Members of the crew found on the
raft could hardly be called survivors
because they were more dead than
alive. All but one died before arriv-

INDUSTRY IN ALARM
Proof That Tariff Meddling Is Sc
riously Feared.
Significant Trend Toward Establish
ment of Plantu In Canada-Re-
markable increase OF American
Investments There.

When the federal authorities find time
to make Governor F'oss' attack on the
tariff a test case they will find that
government reports substantiate his
statement that the tendency OF manu-
featuring interests is toward the es-
adjustment of plants in Canada.
Since Governor FOES Is leading DEM
ocrat as well as the chief executive or
large state and prominent manu-
facturer, his case is one Of the best
that can be had for testing the Dem
ocratic theory that manufacturers who
reduce wages or close their mills
are guilty of something close to trea-
son.
While 1t might be encouraging to
take the view that Governor Foss'
case Is exceptional, the government
reports prove 1t to be otherwise. 1t
Ia estimated at the bureau OF for
eign and domestic commerce that
American capital invested In Cam
ada now aggregates $500,000,O0O.
There has been a remarkable increase
In the last few years--ever since the
agitation for lower tariff In this
country was started.
Not long ago Champ Clark told OF
the migration OF q surprising number
of Missouri farmers into Canada. and
other states are sustaining the same
loss. Money is being driven into
Canada by the restrictive attitude OF
this government, and manufacturers
now are building plants there because
they feel Canadians will have dis.
tinct advantage over Americans under
the new tariff bill.
After while American manuiac.
turers will wake up to the possibili-
ties of manufacturing certain kinds
of supplies, notably hosiery and I'M
derwear and steel, In China and
Japan, where labor can be hired by
the month for the same price as by
the day In this country. Already
manufacturers are realizing that the
greatest danger TO American Industry,
under low tariff, is from Oriental
competition. The trend to Canada is
obviously the result of hardships
placed upon industry in this country

Albany, N Y, Aug. 20.--When the

and will continue to hold that ofiiCa
until Governor Sulzer Is acquitted or

This is the decision upon which both

much further fight.
