Free Sugar and Free Wool.

Our tariff policies, in their bear
ing upon private interests, should be
as broad and simple as possible, and
should be so shaped as to avoid eth
er the creation of private monopoly
or the destruction of established en-
terprise. Even the Democratic tar
iff bills of the past have been strong
ly protectionist, and have professed
to consider the position of particular
industries and their ability to bear
tariff changes. We must not be too
severe, therefore, in criticizing rep
resentives of particular industries at
the present time, in view of the fact.
that such industries have always
been expected, heretofore, to urge
their claims upon the attention of
Congress. The Underwood bill. in
our opinion, will have an invigorat-
ing rather than harmful effect on
American industry and commerce in
general. 1t retains the protective
tariff upon hundreds of articles, al
though in most cases it reduces the
rates. The sugar interests and those
concerned with wool seem to be
more deeply worried than almost
any others. They sincerely believe
that the Underwood bill is too dras-
tic as respects their enterprises. They
have long enjoyed the advantages of
tariff protection, and they feel that
it would be just and statesmanlike
to reduce their degree of protection
but not wholly to remove it. They
have been trying to get public opin-
ion committed to their view, and to
convince statesmen at Washington

that they are right. There is room
for clear difference of opinion upon
this subject, and President Wilson,
in conjunction with large majority
of the leaders of his party, has de-
cided in favor of free sugar and free
wool from the motive of broad pub
lie welfare. While individual DEM
ocratic Senators ought to have the
courage to follow their own convic-
tons of duty, it is plain that the
country expects prompt tariff action
and that this can be had only through
adherence to a party programme
formulated by the recognized major
ity leaders. Under such circumstances
the sugar interests and the wool in
terests, in our opinion, ought to have
gone no further than to state their
case fully and frankly, putting all
their facts and arguments in the
most convenient form for the Presi-
dent and for every member of Con-
gress. They were ill-advised in en-
tering upon a pestering and insistent
campaign, which was not likely to
be productive of results, but which
was more likely to embarrass their

And soon exchanged the several boards

U S AID WITHDRAWN
FROM STATE MILITIA.
REASONS FOR THIS ACTION
BRIEFLY GIVEN BY SECRETA-
RYOF WAR GARRISON.

Withdrawal from South Carolina
of the support given by the Federal
Government to the organized militia
of all other States and Territories
brought many inquiries to the war
department and Secretary Garrison
has issued the following statement:
with respect to inquiries made
of me concerning the relationship
between this department and the
Governor of South Carolina, the
facts are briefly:
Those in control of the National
Guard of South Carolina were not
complying with the law emitting
them to Federal aid. The attention
of the Governor was called to this
and a rather sharply worded reply
received. Fearing that there was
some misunderstanding l wrote a
long explanatory letter to the Gov
ernor stating the law and the par
ticulars in which his State had failed
to comply and suggesting that upon
this being brought to his attention.
it was supposed that he would desire
to comply With the law and continue
to receive the Federal aid. In re- !,
sponse have received another sharp
ly worded letter rei:erating his pre-
vious position and practically stating
that South Carolina did not wish any
Federal aid and would not do those
things necessary to secure it.
The latest letter received by me
from the Governor, which is self-ex-s
planatory and seems to close the
matter, is as follows: "
June "a, 1913.
Hon Ii, lley M Garrison, Sec
retary of War, Washington, D c.
Dear Sir: l am in receipt of your
letter of June 13 in which you state:
After careful consideration of your
communication Qetter Of June 1D i
am forced to the conclusion that you
leave the war department no other
course to pursue than to withdraw
all Federal assistance to the organic
ed militia of South Carolina, and it
is with great regret that | have to
inform you that such action will be
Immediately taken.
This announcement is very
pleasant to me. | fought this Dick
law when was in the Senate, and I
have seen the wisdom of my opposi-
ton since, and nothing gives me more
pleasure than to see South Carolina
relieved from its iniquitous provisions
Thanking you on behalf of my
self, I am, very respectfully,
Cole L Blease, Governor.

post means simply the extension of
the fourth class of mail matter by
making the weight limit in that class
II pounds instead of 4, as at present,

scale of rates according to distances

ounce or fraction thereof All
liquors, poisons, explosives or arti-
Giles having a bad odor are excluded
from the list, while books now be-
longing to the third class will not
be carried by parcels post.
With its few days of trial the sys-
TEN has already presented some per-
picking problems, due to misun-
Outstanding of the rules governing
it. The new regulation demands the
use of the special parcels post stamps
and the delivery of the package at
the postoffice. Already instances are
reported in the large cities where

persons have deposited packages in
large mail boxes on the street cor
ners stamped with ordinary mailing
stamps and without a return address
There is but one avenue open for the
postal authorities in the communities
where these instances occur, namely,
send the package to the dead letter
office for Identification. This pre-
sents the possibility of loss to the
sender, since, in the absence of writ
ing, it may eventually be destroyed
These instances, however, in COM
parison to the vast amount of good
to result from the new system are
but few, and few months of active
operation will reduce the errors to a
minimum.

Just how much the new postal
regulation will cut into the business
OF the express companies is hard at
this time to predict. 1t seems to be
the general feeling, however, that on
small packages, say five pounds and
under, the Government will do the
bulk of the carrying business on ac-
count of the lower rate. A COM
parative table of rates within the
eight zones established by the gov
eminent reveals ratio of l to 5 in
favor of the government in the first
zone and / to 4 in the second, the
ratio diminishing to / to 21h in the
eighth and farthest. In the carry
ing OF 1o-pound packages the advan-
tage is in favor of the express COM
panies by only a few cents in the
first three zones, while the govern
ment holds the cheaper rate in the
farther distances. This table seems
Elmore County Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1910-1915, 1913-01-18

to bear out the prediction in favor
of the government in the case OF
smaller packages.
The zone system seems to have
met with the least favor among writ
tiers throughout the country. Advo-
Gates of a uniform rate for the
United States, regardless of distance,
clamored loudly against the estab-
lshment OF discretionary distances.
But the fight for the parcels post
system has been long one, and ac-
cording to the leading authorities the
compromise was necessary in order
