ONE OF rnr rIRsr rEurrs

Chicago. Oct. 24-More than 1000, :
900 pounds of fresh dressed meat ar
rived here today from Canada, the first
importation under the new tariff which
admits fresh meat free The prices
range from 81 to cents q pound, which
is lower than Chicago packers usually
pay for beef on the hoof
The above suggests h e question
whether Senator LaFollette represent
ed the farmers of Wisconsin and the
great northwest in his own country
when he voted for the democratic tariff
bill that places animals and nearly ev-
erything the farmer produces on the
free list in competition with foreign
countries? The events of succeeding
years will better answer the query.

The Hillsboro Sentry of late issue
presented an editorial on the important
subject of home trading and loyalty to
community and local interests. The
subject matter of the article is well
handled and the CENSOR commends
heartily the editors logical position.
We don't quite understand, however,
why the principle of home-patronage
should not apply to the nation as well.
The Sentry has given endorsement to
Wilson's democratic view of free-trade.
The two positions on part of the Sen
try are illogical and antagonistic. The
nation is but the larger unit.
