LITTLE MILLS SMASHED BY
FREE TRADE.

In an interesting article descriptive
of the manner in which the little
baronies OF the little wooden towns
of New England are beginning to
crumble for the New Freedom" the
Norwich Comm Bulletin of Novem-
Der 10 cites case that fully illustrates
the deadly consequences of free
trade tariff law framed for the purpose
of enabling foreigners to drive Ameri-
can labor out of business. The mill
in question is located in the western
portion of Massachusetts. For sew
eral years past the mill has sold to
the Marshal Field Co, in Chicago, a
certain line of dress goods. The bust
ness was such a certainty that the
mill often made up the goods, amount
ing to $4,000 or 10000 yards, without
waiting for a formal order from Chi
cago. The new tariff changed things.
When the new rates were established,
Marshall Field sent to England sam
plies of the goods the Massachusetts
mill had been making for them and
asked for prices from the English
mills When they got the prices,
which were a number of cents yard
lower than they had been paying the
American mill. they sent the English
prices to the Massachusetts, mill with
this message:
I'VE would like to keep on doing
business with you. because you are
American, and have always given us
good service Here are the foreign
prices. We don't ask you to go below
them: if you can meet them, we will
give you the orders"
Careful figuring at the mill showed
that the bare cost of producing the
goods was above 5 Gems a yard higher
than the price offered by the English
bidder. OF course. there are no more
orders from Marshall Field Co. The
Made in U. S. A" movement does
not extend that far. The big import
ing merchants are in business to make
money, not for patriotic reasons. The
reduced duties of the Underwood
tariff make it an object for them to
place their orders in Europe Ameri
can mills close and American wage
earners lose their jobs. That is how
a competitive tariff works.-Ameri
can Economist

DOES THE FARMER NEED A
BETTER EXAMPLE.

During July. 1913, when the Payne
protective tariff law was in force and
corn was protected by tariff duty OF
IS cents a bushel. the imports OF corn
amounted to 2,007 bushels. During
July, 1914, with the Underwood free
trade law in force. and corn on the
free list, the imports OF corn amount
ed to l,7o4,275 bushels
During July 1913. when wheat was
protected by a tariff duty OF p cents
a bushel, the imports OF wheat
amounted 4.6lS bushels. while in July,
1914, with wheat on the free list, the
imports OF wheat amounted TO 45,
l59 bushels.
Is there any wonder that. up to the
outbreak OF the European war, the
price of farm products was declining,
and does the farmer need better eN-
ample OF the effect OF free trade has
on the products of the farm:-Louis-

THE DUTY TO ADVERTISE.

Papers are constantly going out OF
business in this State and in the coun-
try because they have not the moral
support of the community they seek
to serve" SAYS the Reno Journal.
1T is the lack OF that moral support
that causes the failure OF financial
support on the part OF the merchants.
They do not know that when news
paper suspends light goes out in
the city and it goes into darkness so
far as the rest of the world is con-
cerned.
The following extracts are taken
from the remarks OF an advertising
expert Mr.. Marco Morrow, delivered
a. Lawrence. Kansas, during Kansas
newspaper week:
1.-The newspaper is in reality a
public service institution, said Mr..
Morrow, "a public institution privately
operated The newspapers func-
tions are, first, to serve the people OF
its community with all the news that
is worth while. while it is worth
while; to reflect public opinion 10
guide, so far as possible, public senti-
ment into safe and sane channels, and
to promote to the utmost limits OF
its capabilities the material prosperity
of the community and of the people
who makes its existence possible.
"'Therefore the merchant must be
made TO understand that this thing OF
advertising is a part OF the paper ;
public service-that business news
(and that's what advertising isl is OF
as great Importance as social or po-
litical news-that the publisher is de
reiict in his duty if he does not give
his readers and his merchants an
efficient advertising service. The com
munity needs the paper, the mer-
chant must have the advertising and
the publisher must have the money
1.-The mail order business never,
never would have come into exist
ence if there had not been room for
it and the room for it was created
by inefficient business methods. 1t Is
estimated now that the mail order
business is about y per cent OF the re
tail business of the United States.
Every merchant in the country Is
trying to reach out and get trade
from a little beyond his natural com
munity and that is perfectly right; and
il is lust as right for the big estab-
lishments in Chicago and St. Louis
and Kansas City to to reach out. too,
if they want to- But the only way
they ever succeed in doing it is by
advertising That is the whole secret
of the mail order business.
so there is the proposition. The
duty of paper TO a community in
wolves expense Why does not the
duty of the community to newspa-
per also involve expense. There must
be a mutual relation and cooperation
if all are to advance together. There
must be a giving as we'll as taking
a taking as well as a giving"

the petition Of Artie Rig2le for a
peremptory writ of mandamus to

Of secretary of state on the Social
ist ticket. A. Grant Miller on be-
half Of the petitioner contended that
the fee required is exorbitant and
unconstitutional and amounted to- a

Attorney General Thatcher, on be-
half of the state, relied on the fast
that the Supreme court had already
decided the point at issue in the
case of Douglas versus Ritter rela-
tive to the constitutionality of the
primary law as passed by the legis-
lative session of 1909, and that it was
a reasonable regulation. An early
