LOBBYISTS AND THE SUGAR TAR
IFF.

wv Y HlLE our wise senators are in
NR sisting there are no lobbyists
WV in Washington, it is rather
w startling to pick up a Wash
ington City paper, and read of
the investigation along that line, and
some Of the tariff matters. Of course
us backwoodsmen who rely on the tele.
graph for our news, know the city is a
hotbed of lobbyists, but it is rather
surprising to discover that the news
papers in Washington are really aware
that this condition exists.
Tho Washington Herald Of June 10
has a story of the lobby investigation
which throws some light, not only on
lobbying, but on the sugar feature of
the tariff. One of the witnesses, Har.
ry Irwin, a lawyer from Hawaii, made
the statement that through Representa-.
tive Broussard, of Louisiana, he had
received word from Mr.. Wilson before
his election that the duty would not be
removed from sugar He also gave
considerable more testimony along this
line.
The story then goes on to say: All
the sugar interest witnesses cheerfully
admitted that they were lobbyists, and
explained their operations, even volun.
teering this information. Irwin told
the committee he had been sent to
Washington by the board of trade of
Hilo, Hawaii, in an effort to prevent
the passage of the proposed free sugar
schedule. He said his people told him
to ego back to Washington and see
if he could not show representatives
and senators that they were taking the
very industrial life of the island"
This brings up another phase Of the
tariff question. Fifteen years ago the
Hawaiian islands did not belong to tho
United States, found the market for
most Of their sugar in the United
States and had to pay the tariff on it
besides, That was their condition be.
fore annexation. Now they are not
satisfied with having the tariff taken
off their product, but want tariff
kept on the sugar of other countries,
for their benefit, They have had a
taste of public pap, and like it, just as
do all the other infant industries.
However this doctrine is about obso.
lete. The people, the great mass Of
consumers arc tired Of being taxed to
contribute to the building up and fat.
tening Of private industries. The cost
Of living has gone up go per cent in
eight years, and this increase they
think is sufficient TO maintain all
kinds Of industries without adding
Fictitious value to products, They
think it is their innings and have gone
to bat If Hawaii could got along and
pay a tariff on sugar, they can syo no
reason why the sugar growers there
cannot do pretty well without tariff
since they do not have to pay II. The
consumer has been ridden, tariff rid.

WHO GETS THE MoNEY2

The bill of groceries and meat for
which you paid a dollar in 1895 cost
you $l.59 in 1912.
The figure is greater now.
This is not an estimate or a bit of
guesswork, The figures are those of
the United States bureau of labor and
the British board of trade. They are
the result of tabulatiOn of the prices
Of twenty-three standard articles of
food as they have varied in the last
: eighteen years The price quoted is
an average. In the case of many food.
stuffs, the rise in price has been much
sharper.
But your income, Mr.. and Mrs.
Householder, has not increased proper
tionately The value of your money
has not changed to meet the increas-
ing prices
There is leak somewhere, where
is it' Who, if anyone is profiting by
the larger sums you are paying your
money! The ad.man will attempt to
answer these questions. He will soon
begin an investigation of the causes
of the prevailing high prices, and will
report the progress of the investiga-
tion. These reports will give you not
theories, but facts and figures, present
ing the retailers view of the matter
the iobber's, the Wholesalers, the
packers and the farmers. They will
itemize your bill for you And per-
haps they will show you the way out.

Every good citizen will regret the
removal of the medical college from
Salem to Portland. Those in charge of
the college business think it for the
best, and hence, there is no Kick com.

worked so hard to put its finances on
a good basis, are keenly disappointed,
but there seems to be no help for it,
and their good wishs will follow it

ENFORCE SANITARY LAWS
New Officer Begins Campaign For
Better Health Regulations

City Health Officer DR.. S. A..
Drennen is planning a vigorous
campaign for better sanitary reg.
ulations in Newark, under provi-
sions of the new health law which
recently went into effect. The new
law is pretty strict and if properly

ment in sanitary conditions and re-
suit in a marked improvement in
the general health of the people.
Large placards containing a
warning against splitting on the
sidewalks and floors in public
places have been printed this week
and posted in all public places
Splitting on the walks and floors
is very vulgar and filthy habit,as
we'll as a dangerous one, from a
sanitary view, and the penalty for
violating this law is a $40 fine.

Little Son of Asa Peiley Found
: Dead In Wash Kettle at Sui
- phur Rock Tuesday

Neaviel, the two-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Asa Policy, of Dun
nington, was drowned in a wash
kettle at Sulphur Rock late Tues
day afternoon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Policy, who have
lived at Huntington for a number
of years, and are among the best
people in the county, were moving
to Sulphur Rock to stay during
the fall and winter in order to
have better school advantages for
their children. The household
goods had been unloaded and ev-
cry member of the family was
busy setting up the furniture and
arranging things in the house. The
little fellow was noticed toddling
around in the house and on the
porch, and but little attention was
paid to him as all were busy and
he was giving no one any trouble.
Some time later his body was dis
covered in a wash kettle in the
yard, and it is supposed that he
fellinto the kettle head d downward.
The kettle was nearly full of wat
er and the little fellow was drown
ed.
1t is supposed that he had been
dead Is or 20 minutes when dis
covered. A physician was summon

The remains were buried We'd

YOUR SEWING r1ACHINE

When the sewing machine works
hard and heavily, take the needle
and shuttle out and give every
joint and bearing a generous bath
of gasoline. Do this in the daytime
in order not to have a lamp or fire
anywhere near where you are
working. Turn the wheels briskly
to enable the gasoline to penetrate
every part and to loosen the old
oil and CRIME. Then wipe it per
fectly clean and use a proper lub-
ricating oil, running the machine
for several minutes before insert
ing the needle. Now run for a
minute, wipe away all superfuous
oil and you will find your machine
in good temper and it will be a
pleasure to work upon tx.

ROAD COMMISSIONER
SAYS use THE DRAG
Cheapest and Most Effective Way
of Improving Roads, Says
Mr.. Dye

Reuben G. Dye, Commissioner of
State Lands, Highways and I'M
provements, furnishes The Jour-
nal the following on the improve
ment of roads
Summer has gone and with the
Autumn season comes the fall rain
followed by those of winter. At
this season of the year, the dirt
roads are given their hardest
usage. Summer crops are being
gathered and must be gotten to
market. Cotton must be picked
and gotten to the gin and to the
railroad track.
1t has been hot and dry during
the latter part of the summer. The
weather man at Little Rock says
that August this year has been
one of the driest Augusts in many
many years. The roads, in conse-
quence, have become dusty and
full of chuck holes. With the soak
ing rains prevalent over the entire
State during the past few days
and the traffic required to be car
ried by these wet roads, the farm
ers are going to lose thousands of
dollars within the next few months,
unless immediate action is taken
by all road overseers.
Fright now is the time to begin
dragging your roads. Follow every
good rain with your drag until
you have your road in condition
to shed water and keep its sur
face intact. Do not wait until to-
morrow or next week. Commence
your dragging right now and con-
tinue it after each rain until you
accomplish what you want.
Your people desire it. Every
farmer needs it. 1t means thou
sands of dollars saved to your com.
munity what will otherwise go for
repairs to broken wagons, crippled
horses, double teams where one
should suffice, and produce is
wasted because of inability to get
to market"

The citizens interested in the

work was done last week, will
meet and put in two days more
work on this road next Thursday
and Friday, October 2 and 8.
This is very important and
much travelled road, and the peo-
pie who live adjacent to it are very
much interested in its improve
ment. The people of Newark are
interested also and quite a large
number of our citizens will go out
next Thursday and Friday and
join in the road work.
