Undoubtedly, there was a time in
the history of the. American nation
when a high tariff wall was necessary
for the upbuilding Of American indus
tries. 1t is equally true that the time
has now come when the removal of
that wall will mean a still further up
building of American industry, al
though that may sound like q paradox.
Commenting on the change that has
come in the past few years The Min
neapolis Journal says:
The new tariff calls attention sharply
to the sudden Shift in the relation Of
the United States to the trade Of the
world. Nearly all through the last
century We WereeXporters Of food and
crude natural resources, and import
ers OF manufactures, luXuries n
products of other soils.
The extent to which this condition
is reversed, dimly realized by most OBJ
servers, is fully measured only by sta
tiStics. The tale Of imports is Jared
by the tariff change, but that of ex-
ports is plain enough alone.
Only a third of the total exports for
this year so for is raw material. An
other third of the billion and a half
is fully manufactured goods, a little
more in value than the exported raw
materials. Through domestic on
sumption Is much larger, we have be-
come distinctly a country manufac-
turing for the world. Iron and steel
exports alone have grown in ten years
from one to three hundred millions.
Here Is eason enough for the rise
in cost Of living. Consumers of food
have outrun producers. Even where
products have increased absolutely,
they have decreased relatively. Where
they have decreased absolutely, condi-
lions hint at famine, unless import OF
new production takes their places.
Cattle and beef afford the best exam
pie Of this.
Domestic cattle production has fallen
of early a third, and exports have al
most disappeared. Ten years ago, we
sent abroad thirty millions worth, last
year only nine, and this year meat eX-
ports are estimated to run only one
million. Meanwhile beef is coming in
from Argentina, and cattle from Can
ada n Mexico. Wheat has increased
in production, but exports have fallen.
The United States has turned a diff
ferent face to the world with the
change of the century. We sell to all
nations, but We must think soberly Of
our daily food.

PORTUGAL FIRM IN SADDLE.

Royalist uprisings are about as reg
ular in Portugal as those Of the moon,
but thus far the subsequent down
sittings have been immediate and de-
cisiVe. From the first day Of the over
throw the statesmen of European
monabchies have looked confidently
and hopefully for a collapse of the
of the old. Several of them have
prophesied a return to the old regime.
Ex-King Manuel has been a protege
Of his more fortunate crowned broth
ers while he has tried to strengthen
his by intimate association with
other royal families. His recent mar
Rage was, no doubt, calculated with
the old-biooded nicely that charac-
terizes most state marriages with a
view to acquiring powerful relations
rather than in obedience to the law of
natural selection.
The longer the government now in
control can continue it's hold upon
Portugals affairs the more certain it
is of perpetuity, for the people are
already convinced that a royal estab-
lishment is too expensive for them to
maintain, comments The Detroit
News. They only need a few COM

EDITORIAL COMMENT
A Name to Honor.

New York Tribune; In a busy
world, even in the middle Of a tenn
pestuous political campaign, it is
well worth while to pause and take
off ones hat to Reed B. Freeman of
Binghamton, N. Y, a courageous and
bi~g-hearted man if there ever was
one. This owner Of the ill-fated
clothing factory that snuffed out the
lives Of thirty employees has given his
last cent to the victims of the disaster.
He could not bear to continue his
business with the memory of the
tragedy before him. So he closed out
his affairs, paid his debts, distributed
what was left Of his fortune among
the families of the dead, and at the
age of IS years has set out to begin
life anew in another city. These are
the actions of an honest, plucky man.
His conduct may not prove us profit
able as the ways of other employers
with records of disaster, who promptly
resume their old business habits with
d locked door for good luck. But his
actions at least insure the stanch re-
spect M good will of everybody
possessing an old-fashioned d~istaste
for trattickers in unprotected labor.

TAKE IT SLOW.

: Secretary Cooper of the Better
! Farming association recently offered
some advice that contains a deep les
son. He urged the farmers who are
thinking Of going into dairytng and
who are not thoroughly familiar with
, that branch of agriculture to build
up their dairy herd by easy stages.
In other words to-"go slow"
Pick out good grade cattle, test
) them to prove their worth. then from
the pick Of the herd select the best
for breeding purposes. Get a thor
Oughbred sire, and in a few years you
will have a splendid herd of valuable
cattle, and with a little care they can
be kept continually improving in
value"
This was the gist of Mr.. Cooper's
advice, the c~ommOn-SenSe quality OF
which is characteristic of all the work
that has been done under his direc-
ton. At the present time cattle Of
all kinds are scarce and high priced.
This Is especially true of thorough
bred cattle, so Mr.. Cooper would have
the farmer breed up grade stock,
which is within the reach of any man,
and while he is improving his herd
he will be learning the dairy business
thoroughly in the best Of all schools,
that of experience.
In giving this advice Mr.. Cooper
did more than utter a practical re-
mark-he voiced a great principle. 1t
