LIVING MAY COME DOWN
BY Shutting OF Industrial Opportu-
nifty and Limiting the Peoples
Purchasing Power

The new tariff bill framed in Sec
ret caucus. dominated by the presi-
dent. and passed in both Houses over
the protests OF Republicans, who tried
in vain to modify its revolutionary
prov sions, Is a measure upon the en-.
forcement of which the Democratic
party must stand or fall.
1t was promised that this tariff bill
would reduce the cost of living. 1t
Is still claimed that 1t will do that,
not at once, but eventually. Its oper-
alton in that d rectidn so the Demo
cratic journals tell as is simply de-
ferred.
The reduction of the cost Of living
was the excuse for the Wilson I'm

passage WAS al specific promise from
IT'S sponsors that the cost of living
would go down.

limiting the peoples purchasing pow
er.
High prices have existed because
those who had goods to sell easily
found buyers who were able and will
ing to pay high prices. The buyers
could do that because their earning
power was large II they did not
earn or secure the price they could
not pay it, and the price In the last
analysis depended upon the earning
capacity OF the consumer.
But the new tariff opens our market
to goods of alien make. 1t restricts
cur own industrial opportunity and
reduces the demand for workmanship
and reduces the earning power of the
individual. Thus may the cost OF
living come down, but living will not
be any easier for all Of that. Goshen

Those who have studied the new
currency measure are agreed that it
cannot succeed without the co-opera-
ton Of the banking interests of the
country and many criticisms from dis
ricts removed from all the larger cit
les are to the effect that the so called
country bankers do not carry a large
amount of short time paper, which is
essential if they are to cooperate in
the benefits Of the new legislation.
which is designed to place the re
sources of the central or regional
banks at the disposal of the local
banks.
To the critics the administration
leaders retort that anyone can go 10
an oculist and get glasses that will
make the world look topsy turvy and
the observation is supplemented by
the statement that great many people
have this class of glasses. Neverthe-
less, the currency legislation has not
been considered entirely as a partisan
measure, although the president de-
clares that Democrats who are not
rebels will support him. At present
the greatest concern is whether the
dilatory senate can be stirred up suf-
fciently to enact a bill before the reg
ular session in December.

An attempt to iron out the difficulty
between the city of Winfield and the
state board of control over the water
supply for the State Hospital for the
Feeble Minded at Winfield was made
the other day. The state contends
that the city ought to run the city
water main to the city limits, the
board of control to stand the expense
of laying the other half mile of pipe
to reach the hospital. The city would
have to put down about quarter of
mile of pipe. At the last visit of the
board to the hospital, Gov. George H.
Hodges was present and warned the
city officials that if they expected the
state to spend any more money at
Winfield they must do their share.
Following this plan was announced
by j. w. Howe, secretary Of the board
Of control, providing for the building
of another state hospital for feeble
minded somewhere else in the state.
instead of charging the Winfield in
stitution to take care Of the large
number OF inmates. The hospital Is
said to be accommodating fifty beyond
its capacity now, and there are on
file 725 applications for admission to
the institution.
