WHAT The FREE
TARIFF HAS REDUCED
Among Other Things, The Ameri.
can Farmers Market and High
Standard Of Living.

The Democratic Tariff has reduc-
cd some things at least. For in
stance, federal revenue. industrial
activity, confidence in the Democrat
ic party, but not the cost of living,
as promised by Wilson. The farmer
has been forced into the world mar
ket" at the expense of his own rich,
exclusive homo market. He must
face foreign competition, based on a
scale of living that is far below his
own. He is no longer the exclusive
purvoyor to the richest. hungriest,
most extravagant 100000 people
in the world. lie has rivals who are
more patient, more thrifty than him
self. In exchange for this monopoly
he is given an opportunity to buy
foreign-made articles at reduced Tar
iii rates.
What farmer in the United States
believes that his own prosperity is
enhanced when the prosperity of in
dustry is impaired or destroyed?
Docs he not wish to see workingmen
employed at wages that will enable
them to pay for the food he furnish
es? What farmer would willing!
change his standard of living in Or
der to compete with the foreign
farmer whose chief field animals are
his wife and daughters? Yet the
American farmer must change his
standards, to some degree at least,
if he is to share the American mark
ct with the foreign farmer. The
foreigner will improve his condition,
and perhaps he will soon be riding in
an automobile like the American
farmer has been doing in the past
under Protection.
Under the Free-Trade Tariff the
farmers products have suffered
decline, wheat having dropped about
Is cents bushel previous to the
war. Wheat should never fall below
81 per bushel in our general mark
cts. That is as low as it can profit
ably be produced, but it was only
little above so cents. Hogs and corn
would have seriously declined in
price but for the ravages of the
cholera and the loss of the crop in
four of the great corn producing !
states, Under normal conditions
the large importation of corn from
Argentina could only produce a
heavy decline in price.
So there have been conditions that
have helped the farmer, even though
the Democratic party did all that was
possible through the enactment of
the Free-Trade law for farm prod
ucts, and the war is now about to
make a demand upon the products !,
of this country to feed the armies |
and the noncombattants of Europe |
that will tax its resources and re-
quire all the surplus the United
States can spare.

FOUND The TRAY|IS ALONE INDEED
But Diamonds From Santa Fl
Watch Co. Still Missing.
First Real Clue to This Baaaing
Robbery.

The tray that contained the diamonds
stolen from the Santa Fe Watch COM
pany last Saturday, was sfound late
Monday afternoon of this week by
Jesse Allen, Is years old, Of 500 Nom
roe street The diamonds were not in
The Allen boy last week found bot
tie between Third and Fourth streets,
on the alley west OF Kansas avenue.
Thinking that he would make q little
money by selling this bottle. he threw
it under a shed used by the Gabriel
Lumber company In the storing Of ce-
ment. After collecting q few more
bottles. the boy decided to get the one
he threw under the shed. Monday aft
ernoon he crawled under the building
looking for the bottle and found the
plush tray.
Not knowing what 1t was he had
found. the boy took tho tray over to
the home OF some friends. Leonard and
Joe Ekhart, who live at 100 Harrison
street. The boys played with the tray
that afternoon and then discarded it.
A Mrs. Haywood. living in the same
house discovered 1t Friday.
Believing that the tray had some
thing to do with the diamond robbery
Mrs. Haywood notified Special Officer
w. N. Bartlett of 1880 North Kansas
avenue. Bartlett Investigated and Fri
day afternoon reported the affair to
turned the tray to A. 8. Thomas of the
Santa Fe Watch company.
At 9 O'Clock last night. Chief Ross
and Detective Charles Lytle went to the
home of the Allen boy and questioned
him about his discovery Of the tray.
his story of the bottle and of finding
the tray under the shed.
Last night, as soon as the watch
company had been notified Of the find-
ing Of the tray, I. b. Hunt. diamond
salesman, went to the alley where 1t
no tracks were left. owing to the paved
alley, and he could find no traces that
could lead to the identity of the thief
or thieves.
A new theory was put out by detec-
tives this morning. that the work was
that OF local people. Before today,
nearly all of those working on the case
believed that professional diamond
thieves from bigger cities were con-
nected with the theft. Since the find-
changed their belief and will work on
the case locally iron now on.
One of the reasons set forth in the
theory. Is that thief, who was going
to leave the city. would not take the
trouble to hide the tray. The natural
have thrown it carelessly away and left
the city. By the evident care in placing
the tray under the shed, the detectives
believe that Topekans had a great deal
to do with the robbery.
Alonzo 8. Thomas, proprietor of the
store. has now offered a reward of $500
for the return of the jewels. no ques-
tions asked. AS every clue so far taken
Up by the police has failed to material
ize. he believes that the big reward
may have results. For the return of
the s.. 200 worth Of diamonds. $500 will
be paid without question.
The discovery Of the tray is the first
real clue that has been obtained on this
baffling case.
