ROCKPORT,

May 14.-Speaking OF the EVIL
habit of gossip" editor Fogie Of
the Berry Citizen says:
/ 'YBerrS as we'll as every other
small country town has her share
of people that want to let aheir own
affairs go and me1i'e with other
peoples that don't concern them in
the least One misplaced word some
times starts and by the time it Is
handed around three or four times it
has enough added to ruin the char
acter of any man or woman in Berry.
And a character that lis good one
is worth all the gold and silver. We
know OF things that have started
in this town THAT we do not care TO
put in prnt) about people that were
of INJURY to them and caused them
trouble. still they We're nothing but
just plain lies.
What anybcidy wants to gossip
such things We are unable to under
stand, but 1t seems as though they
enjoy 1t to the highest. If SOME Df
this Class would just keep srll for a
week or so and listen to others they
surely would get Disguised and keep
still hereafter. Another class a small
town is botheru1 with is SO called
the Fknocker,' people that sit around
and knock every home industry. Ev-
cry citizen guilty of this ought 10
be sent to an asylum where they could
see no one"
Berry has nothing on Rockport when
it comes to lie-telling gossip" In
fact, We would Like to hear of
town where more down right lies are
told than in this village. People
who poke their nOsts in other folks
affairs are to be hetested and shun-
ned. Rockport has the name of be-
ing the worst town in Western Ken
lucky. This is "h.bel" ON the town
for some of the best people i'm Ken
Tucky live here-people who would no
more gossip or talk about a person,
than they would caress a viper. Still
a big lot Of people here find more
real pleasure in giving a knock"
than a helping hand. We can't i'm
agine why any one takes pleasure in
sAndering fellow citizen. Surely
they can't expect q reward for it
now or hereafter. 1t really seems
to give some people a delight to talk
evil things about person. ALWAYS OF
course behind their backs.) These
human "pole-cats" are worse than a
rattlesnake. They. smile and shake
your hand to your face-1behind your
back they stick knife in you. No

shipments under the former law. An
additional competition Of million
dollars day faces the American
manufacturers And in addition TO The
handicap, there IS the outlook for

Has there been any change for fho

sumers received a benefit IN lower

sore been enabled to make Il saw
ing? There has boen no such change.
The new Tariff has produced results
only on one SIDE of the ledger. The
increased importations under the new
law mean merely so much yardage
cut from the American teXt.e mills,
50 much tonnage taken from re pro-
duct Of the steel mills, So much less
demand for goods made by the Ameri
can producer
The question of what would happen
under 4 Wilson loV tariff is being
answered N very plain language. For
a year and more we have been living
on the promises of reduced living
costs and booming business The full
fillment of The promise turns out TO
be a more costly living than before
and serious slackening of business
all along the line.
The only panacea thai Mr.. Wilson
offers to this situation is the promise
that the new currency law when ii
gets fairly started will cure the trou-
bic. What system of currency can
be devised that will eliminate tie fac
tor of a decreased market for the
American producer? How can the
establishment OF any number of Fed
eral reserve banks prevented add
tional importatioEs from coming to
the United States? In the pathway
of the American manufacturer stands
like a mighty rock the fact that un-
der the new tariff merchandise is
coming here from abroad at the rate
of a million dollars a day more than
a year ago.
What the country needs is more
business, mot more currency nor more
banks. william Mckinley well told
the story when in 1896 he said, open

American workman now sees the mis-
take OF 1912. He believed in the
promise of cheapergoOds. He dream
ed that it was simply to be compe-
titiOu between rich American mill
owners and foreign mill owners. He
has walked to find the real competi-
ton is between himself and foreign
labor; that the mill owners prof. Il
are but a very small perez ntage of
the total value of the output of the
mills; that ninety per cent OF the com
petition and the cutting down must
fall Oh labor. because about that per
cent must be paid for the labor.
