Our democratic friends are once
more putting the cart before the horse
or shall we say before the donkey !?
They are sending a commission to
Michigan and to other sugar beet
fields to inquire into the condition of
the industry, and they are sending it
after they have passed the bill that
will affect the industry.
If they wanted knowledge about the
effect of a tariff reduction on beet
growing, why did they not make the
inquiries before they took the ire
trievable step of reducing the tariff ?
If they should now learn that the do
mestic sugar business has been SER
iously injured by the cut in the duty,
it is not conceivable that they will
restore the old duty. They pledged
their party to free sugar by their tar
if and they will carry out their pro-
gram now regardless of consequences.
Why the investigation
The situation in Michigan it that
about rs per cent acreage compared
with last year, has been or will be
planted in 1914, and that the loss of 81
cents a ton of beets is being divided
between the factory and grower.
When the present campaign closes in
the fall, it is the present prospect that

Free Trade Iron Boom

Washington, May 25.-Anticipated
spring business in steel construction
has fallen far below expectations. Re-
ports from the steel districts which
supply building material show a
great falling off in mill operations.
Building operations are usually
a good thermometer of good or bad
times. The demand for iron and
steel for building would seem to be
growing worse and worse. The whole
trend of the iron and steel industry
is downward. 1t is reported to be
operating at about sixty-five per
cent of its capacity.
In the Pittsburg district, each
weeks record in iron and steel seems
worse than the week before. Reports
to the New York Sun show that the
United States Steel corporation mills,
at Farrell, Pa, the March business
booked fell far below expectations
and that consequently prices are not
as firm as they were in the first few
months of the year. The same re-
ports say that the curtailment of op-
erations in certain departments of
the steel industry at Farrell "tends
buying of steel is running fifty per
cent lighter than month ago."
A recent report Of John A. PentOn
Of Cleveland. secretary Of the Amer
lean Pig Iron associations says that
foreign manufacturers, operating un-
der the lower cost of production, are
shipping large quantities of pig
iron into the United States, while the
industry here is being carried on at
heavy loss. The wages Of thousands
of employees in the pig iron industry
have been reduced, the report says.
or will have to be to meet the situa-
tiOn.
"Within the past few months the
tariff changes have been overlooked
by the country in general, but their
effect is now being felt" says James
A. Campbell Of the Youngstown, o.,
Sheet and Tube company. Natural
ly some time would be required for
foreign steel makers to prepare for
competition in the United States but
their selling agencies are now at work
and foreigners are reaching into the
American territory from the sea-
board points. To meet this competi-
ton we must reduce labor costs as
we cannot pay protective wages on a
free trade basis"
Mr.. Campbell says tariff reductions
are largely responsible for the pres
ent conditions in the iron and steel
industry.

State Capital Notes

The General Assembly in its extra
session enacted three laws in relation
to the strike and adopted a resolution
providing for a committee on investi-
cation and meditation, and adjourned.
The most important law provides a
bond issue of 81 ,OOO, 900 to pay the ex-
penses of maintaining the troops in
the field OF the amount seven hun
dred thousand dollars is for expenses
already incurred and three hundred
thousand is for expenses which may
be incurred should it become neces-
sary to return the troops to the field
should the federal troops be taken
away. Another law gives the COVER
nor the right to close saloons in strike
affected districts or where there is
riot and disorder. The other law
gives the governor the right to con-
troll the sale of firearms under all cir
committee of three members of the
house and three members of the SEN
ate and clothes it with power to at
tempt to arbitrate or mediate the
strike and also to investigate fully
and make such recommendations to
the Twentieth General Assembly as
in its judgment may be necessary.
Each and every law carried the emer-
gency clause and also the safety
clutch. Governor Ammons signed
them before the Assembly adjourned,
and they are now part of the statute
of Colorado.
Senator Tierney announced while on
his way here from Washington that
he intended to try to impeach Gov
ernor Ammons. Senator Tierney was
fresh from the councils of Senator
Shafroth. His every act on the floor
of the senate was in opposition to law
and order and was in support Of those
who fought Governor Ammons. The
general belief is that Senator Shaf-
roth dictated the policy which Sena-
tor Tierney followed.
Those who are trying to support
law and order in this state should re-
member that to Senator Shafroth
should be charged the trouble that

uation. They denounced sAlf-serying
politicians, irresponsible fanatics, hys-
terical women and yellow newspapers
who have maligned the governor and
villified the National guard. They also
condemned the statements of Judge
Ben Lindsey. The matter has come
directly home to the people Of Canon
City by the conflict in the Chandler
mine in their vicinity. 1t is quite
evident that the people Of Colorado

this state will go out of business and
that the industry will practically dis
appear.
That is the situation as it is. Let
us see how close to the facts the re-
ports will be.
We have met one of the men who,
it is alleged, is investigating the beet
sugar industry in this state. From
what we can learn of the investiga-
tion, so-called, we are of the opinion
that there is but. little chance for the
beet sugar industry under the pres
ent administration. Why the depart
ment of commerce at Washington,
send out men seeking information
about an agricultural industry that
they know nothing of and who at first
glance know little regarding business
of any kind, is more than we can
understand.
If Mr.. Wilson desires information
on the beet sugar industry, it would
seem practical that he would send to
Michigan some of Michigan's own
men who have grown up with the in
dustry and who can furnish facts
and figures.
The passage of the tariff bill max
ing foreign sugar absolutely free, is
the assassination of the beet sugar in
dustry. If the country can't elect a
republican congress that will restore
the duty on sugar, then this great ag-
ricultural industry will disappear
There is no use of mincing matters.
The domestic beet sugar industry has
already been injured and a complete
annihilation of the same is certain il
free trade policy is continued. Who
do you want for congress? That IL
the issue.

now exists. During his entire four
years as governor the strike was on
in northern Colorado. Murder, ar
son, and general opposition to consti-
tutional law was the rule and not the
exception and Shafroth as governor
never raised an official finger to put
a stop to the outrages. Instead he
used every dollar in the state treas
ury to elect himself to the United
States senate and went out of office
leaving the state bankrupt and in a
state of insurrection and rebellion.
Had he suppressed the lawlessness at
its inception in Boulder county the
troubles of today would never have
occurred. Whatever may be our con-
dition it is directly chargeable to the
official records of Shafroth as COVER
nor.
Lest we forget-The Shafroth ad-
ministration cost more than the COM
bined cost of the Buchtel and the Nc
Donald administrations. Again one
thousand men in the field for seven
months under Governor Ammons cost
as much as three thousand men in the
| field eighteen months under Peabody.
Colorado citizens should realize that
democratic management of state af-
fairs spells financial mismanagement.
The one. set of men whose records
are absolutely clean so far as the ex-
ira session is concerned is the regular
republicans. Coming to the session

ton they laid aside their politics and

STAKED TIERNEY TO RAILROAD
TICKET HIS ONE OFFENSE
imOsity of ShafrOth's Secre-
tary

Denver, May 23.-Lieutenant Gov
ernor Ftzgarrald says the only thing
he has done since he has been in office
that could be considered violation of
his oath was an effort to help Senator
Tierney get money enough to get to
Washington to accept the position of
secretary to Shafroth.
Senator Tierney talks about hav-
ing me impeached," said Fitzgarrald.
"Well, / guess he could if he told what
| did for him and | presume he would
put that in as part of the evidence.
When he secured the job as secretary
to Shafroth he did not have money
enough to get to Washington. He
went to Auditor Kenehan and asked to
have his voucher for the full amount
of the salary for the term issued. The
money is not due him until the Both
of next November. He said if he
could get the voucher issued he could
put it up in some three-ball place,
and assign it over and get the price
of a railroad ticket to Washington. He
said the warrant would not be issued
or cashed until the end of November.
Technically | knew the voucher could
not be issued. But he put up such a
calamity howl through his friends and
as the state auditor was going to is
sue it / would sign the voucher and
did. 1t was clearly against the con-
stitution if the matter was sifted
down to its last analysis. Now he
comes back here and talks of i'm
peaching me. Well, that is what
fellow gets for helping out a guy who
is so cheap he can't even raise the
price Of railroad ticket to go to
where job is waiting"

state by the coal miners strike and
the subsequent lawless acts which
have followed, and they are in no
mood to stand repetition of such
acts. They will insist that every man
be permitted to run his property
without being shot at or burned up,
and they will insist upon having peace
if they have to fight for it.
