MICHIGAN MITTfN
FACTORY CLOSES

Every dollars worth of goods made
abroad and sent to our country takes
just so much from American manu-
facturies. You see the aim of many
people has been to get after the
American manufacturer and the
American capitalist. But in chasing
the latter they also injure the men EN-
ployed by the manufacturers aud
capitalists.
We were talking with a lower
peninsula man one day this week,
says Iron Ore He said in his town
there used to be a very active little
factory that employed a number of
well-paid men and women making
woolen mittens. They made these
mittens for the United States, supply
ing them to the army. They were
good mittens, all wool and properly
constructed.
Now the factory is closed because
the government buys wooden mittens
very much cheaper from a German
manufacturer. German workmen are
doing the knitting that used to be
done by the Michigan people. This
is only one very small sample showing
how free trade operates. American
soldiers being supplied by Germany,
and Germany making fun of our
army.
Germany is offering steel at cut
prices in the United States and secur-
ing orders, too. Oh, we can meet
them at their own game if we play it
as they do. If we cut the wages of
our men in two, and then some, we
will be paying what the German
laborer receives. Then we can com
pete with Germany, and that is what
free trade will eventually bring
about. It's quite plain this must be
so if we are to do any manufacturing
at all The German pays as much for
living as we do, but he lives different
ly. He has to. With the money he
received he couldn't live. as do the
American people.
Hill, of the Great Northern rail
way says we are extravagant. He is
right. Under a Republican form of
government we always were. We
could afford to be- Sure we were ex-
travagant. The natural facilities of
our country made it possible for u.s.
We have lived well, fed well, dress
ed well, had some of the luxuries of
life. The foreigner has only t.E
drudgery of life. And now they want
us to get down on this level and live
as does he and place hoops around our
bodies that we may keep ourselves to-
gether.
Fine game, that.
And they say the Republican party
is dead and buried. Just wait until
this Democratic ointment has had
time to soak in.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR

WHO THREW NEGRO
OFF ". P. TRAIN?

Coroner Dunn and Sheriff Lamb re-
turned Tuesday evening from Jungo,
bringing in the remains of the negro
who was thrown from Western Pacific
train No. at an early hour that
morning, at a point about three miles
this side of Jungo. OF the seven men
who were in the fight, in addition to
deceased, all were found. Three white
men were picked up here Tuesday
night, as well as the other negro. and
the remaining three white men were

\ Williams, John McCruden, W. Muir
ray, s. NJ Bowling, A. f. Organ, L..
II Wagner, who viewed the remains
and listened to the testimony of the
witnesses.
The negro, giving the name of
Young, admitted that he took the
train at Marysville with deceased,
whom he knew only as Shorty
but said that at the time of the fight
he was on the rear end of the train
and saw none of it. Five of the six
white men, however, positively iden-
tilted him as being in company with
deceased, and swore he was standing
by while the deceated was attempting
to hold them up, although he took no
active part in the proceedings.
According to the white witnesses,
they were riding on the front plat
form of the baggage car, next to the
engine when deceased attempted to
hold them up, and a general fight en-
sued Finally one of the white men
reached over to tool box on the ten
der of the engine and secured heavy
chain, with which he struck the negro,
knocking him from the train, which
was running at a speed of 80 miles an
hour.

BORAH PREDICTS
G. 0 P. SUCCESS

A glowing picture of the future of
the Republican party was painted at
Detroit, Michigan, Tuesday, by Sena-
tor William f. Borah, of Idaho,
speaking at a statewide conference of
Republicans.
"The Republican party said Sen
ator Borah, "is coming back into
power The proof of it is on every
hand. The trend is unmistakable /
said a year ago that the amalgama
tion which would take place would be
an amalgamation of the voters, but
not the assumed leaders. | said fur
ther that that was the only amalga-
nation that was worth while. The
men who voted the third party ticket
to the number of 100000 for reasons
entirely satisfactory to them can
neither be questioned as to their in
tegrity of purpose or their patriotism.
But that it was protest and not
manifestation of purpose to perma
nently leave the party is now estab-
lished by facts and figures which can
not be doubted.
"Now in view of this pronounced
and unmistakable purpose of those
who voted the third party ticket to
ally themselves with the Republican
party in view of the determination to
support its principles and it's policies,
what is the task before us? 1t is un-
questionably to make our party equal
to the tremendous problems which
now concern us. It is to build up in
this country, out of the traditions, the
achievements and the prestige of the
past, the duties and obligations of the
present and the aspirations of the flu
ture an organization efficient, mill
tant and worthy of its
old days and equal to the obligations
which now rest upon us. 1t is our
duty, in other words, in unmistakable
terms to make it clear that the Re
publican party is to be As it was in
its best days, thoroughly progres
sive party
"No man living in this splendid
age. amid these exhilirating environ
ments can afford to permit the cor
roding poison of pessimism to enter
his soul. But, on tn eother hand, the
curse of our age is that cold cruel,
selfish conservatism, which, living in
its ease and comfort enjoying wealth
ana ali III DrlnRS, REFUSES TO see OF
sympathize with the conditions of
those who, in the midst of world of
plenty, are bordering on the line of
hunger and misery, who refuse TO see
the new conditions of the new prob
lens which must be met and dealt
with in the same spirit and with the
same courage and progressiveness
that our fathers met the problems of
their age. This great and almost
superhuman task, my friends, is not
the gathering of wealth, but its fair
and equitable distribution.
'What we want in this country is
party which will do the simple, but
profound thing which Lincoln did,
that is, gather up the common sense,
the common honesty, the common pa
triotism the common courage and the
common righteousness of the common
people of this country and to organize
it into a militant progressive discip-
lined force for legal and social Justice,
and to do it all under the constitution
and laws of this blessed old repub-
