And the same thing is going to hap
pen in Shoshone county. The demo-
cratic party in Shoshone county Is
dominated by one man and the people
are not disposed to turn over the
county government to party so con-
trolled. That Is about all there Is to
the political issue In this county and
the voters quite generally understand
It. Those who do not will be thor
oughly enlightened on the subject be-
fore time to vote. The record Of re-
publican officers in Shoshone county
has been one of high efficiency ana
fidelity to their duties, and the cam
didates who now seek election or re-
election have the character and quail
fications which insure the very best

self to voters who have no special In

is to see the administration Of the af-
fairs Of the county in the hands OF

republicans have put up and 1t Will

Governor Hawley will probably And
as he goes from place to place that tho
main trouble with the country Is that
too many messages have already been
received from President Woodrow
Wilson. Some Of them are still fresh
in the memory Of the people The first
OF his messages placed the country on
a free trade basis and Is the
cause Of the direct tax that is now be-
ing placed upon the people by demo-
cratic congress, tax that Is wholly
unnecessary In view Of the unparallell-
ed extravaganza OF the democratic
congress and Its failure to enact q
tariff law that would meet the re-
quirements Of government. Another
message from President Woodrow Will
son has also not been forgotten, par
ticuarly by the people OF the west
who looked forward to the opening Of
the Panama canal as the beginning Of
water competition in transcontinental
freight rates. This message resulted
In repeating the act allowing free tolls
to American ships engaged in coast
wise commerce, a measure directly in
the interest Of the transcontinental
railroads and against the people OF the
west. These are fair samples Of the
messages from President woodrow
Wilson up to date. and 1t remains to
be seen whether Governor Hawley
brings anything more cheering or re.
assuring.

DEMOCRATIC RULE
PARALYzES INDUSTRY
WHAT MINORITY LEADER MANN
SAYS OF WAR TAX AND Will.
SON ADMINISTRATION.

with the Industries Of the country
largely paralyzed and labor out Of
work, it is no time to impose addi-
tional taxes, and taxes, too. which are
entirely unnecessary" declared James
r. Mann, republican minority leader
of the house Of representatives, In a
statement the other day.
Congressman Mann's statement Is
regarded as an important utterance in
view Of the fight the republican min
ority is making in both house and
senate to prevent the democratic ma
jority from imposing so-called
war" tax on the people in addition to
their other burdens Of taxation, at a
time when this country is at peace
with all the world.
Economy Needed, Not Taxation.
There is no need to put new taxes
on the people at this time" Mr.. Mann
asserts. while there may be slight
falling off in customs receipts during
the European war, that can easily be
more than met by proper governmental
economy. The war in Europe may be
over soon and the treasury can meet
the expenses Of the government with
out difficulty for a long time to come
If it draws on the government money
now deposited in the banks. Much of
the money already appropriated need
not be used for the present II the pres
ident will direct the departments to
practice economy. There are many
things which can wait over Temper
ary delay In many cases will be no in
jury.
Decrease in Trade Balance.
For the seven months of this year
ending with July 81. before the war
begun, our imports from foreign coun-
tries were 122 million dollars more
than they were for the same period
last year. while our exports were 126
million dollars less. That Is caused
by the Underwood tariff The balance
Of trade in our favor for these seven
months in this year was 60 million
dollars. For the same seven months
last year, the balance of trade in our
favor was 30S million dollars. This
shows falling of in the balance Of
trade in our favor in seven months be-
fore the war commenced OF 24S mil
lion dollars. That is equivalent to a
demand on us Of 24S million dollars in
gold. That is one of the main troubles
with the country now and Is the re-
suit of the new tariff law.
How to Get Revenue.
| "If we were manufacturing the
goods we use instead Of importing
them, we would have prosperity, and
II we had sufficiently high import
duty on the goods we bring in from
abroad, we would have sufficient rev.

need now Is economy and not new

ocratic administration Is extravaganza

WARSUFFERERS
| ARE RAILROADS
ASK SYMPATHY
Managers Make Appeal to
President, Who Thinks
They Need Assistance, but
Is Making No Promises Of
Immediate Action.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9-The pres
ident began consideration tonight of
an appeal laid before him by a COM
mittee of railroad executives represent
ing every large railroad in the country.
He was asked to aid the railroads IN
tiding over the financial difficulties
arising from the war in Europe. No
specific plan was presented.
The railroad men were hopeful after
the conference that the president
through a public letter or otherwise
might show that he believed they had
laid the groundwork for consideration
of specific requests to be made later.
These requests are understood to IN
clude a postponement of the conSldera-
ton of the railroad securities bill now
pending in congress, legislation allow
ing the inter state commerce commlS-
sion to take general conditions into
consideration in passing on petitions 1or
rate increases and reopening the rec
emily decided advance in freight rate
cases. After the conference the rail-
road executives met the members OF
the interstate commerce commission.
At the White House it was said the
president would give careful consld-
Grafton to the problem. He indicated
his sympathy with the railroad men
appeal but had made no promises.
He is understood to favor the view
that the railroads need assistance.
The specific requests of the railroad
men were: THAT the president call the
attention of the country to the prets-
| ing necessity for the support of rail-
road credit by the cooperative, SYM
! pathetic effort of the public and of al
| governmental authorities to remove
| immediate burdens involving additiona
expense.
That the president urge a practlca
| recognition of the fact that an emer-
gency is on the railroads which re-
quires in the public interest, that the!
have additional revenue, and that ap
propriate governmental agencies seel
a way by which such additional reven
ues may be properly and prompt.
