How the Democrats Helped"

The new senator from Alabama,
Mr.. Underwood, expressed lively sat
isfaction at the first report of the de-
cision Of the Customs Court unfolding
the clause in the Underwood tariff for
per cent rebate of duties on mer-
chandise imported in American bot
toms. He said that he greatly desired
to help the American merchant mar
inc and the decision was a victory
But since the full finding has been
made public, to the effect that the re-
bate must also be made on all duties
on merchandise imported in the ships
Of all favored nations" which in
cludes all the leading nations except
France, Senator Underwood has not
spoken. Instead of helping" our mer-
chant marine he merely reduced the
customs revenues 5 per cent. The re-
bate now due, under the decision, will
wipe out the general fund balance in
the treasury.
Mr.. Mann, the minority leader, re-
grets the plight of the treasury, of
course, but his reputation for being
the ablest legislator in the house is
strengtheden. When the Underwood
bill was pending Mr.. Mann attacked
the rebate clause on two grounds. One
was that the democrats were hypocrit-
zeal. Their platform expressed devo-
ton to the fostering of a merchant
marine, but declared that the foster
ing must be accomplished without
imposing additional burdens on the
people and without bounties or subsi-
dies from the public treasury" He
showed that the Underwood proposal
was a subsidy, whatever name was
given it or whatever legal disguise
the skilled customer might try to de-
wise for it, and pointed out that the
rebate would not work as intended,
but that it would result in horizon
tai reduction Of the tariff The de-
cision bears him out. For the fifty
American ships benefited, there are
between 5000 and 5000 foreign ships
that will also receive the rebate. This
is another act of the democratic con-
gress to which the next national plat
form will not point with pride. 1t is
ever thus with the democrats, even
when their intentions are good.

Facts For Farmers

Nearly six million dozen eggs were
imported into this country in 1914,
according to Commerce and Naviga-
ton Of the United States 1914" Only
a million and a half dozen were i'm
ported in 1918. OF dried yolks and
frozen eggs there were imported in
1918 only 22s,0OO pounds but in 1914
the importations grew to 100000,
an increase of 1900 per cent. Why this
increase? In 1913 eggs paid an i'm
port duty of five cents a dozen but in
1914 were free. Yolks and frozen
eggs were kept out by 20 per cent
ad valorem duty in 1918 but this was
reduced to ten per cent in 1914.
Some were laid in Germany
Some in far Japan;
And some were laid in China,
In the days of Genghis Khan.
But whence they came or where they
went,
This thought gives small enjoy
ment,
The hens and ROSTERS in this land
Were robbed Of their employment.
Allowing an average per hen Of 120
eggs year, the importation Of these
100000 eggs threw 100000 hens out
of work for 1914, or put 100000 on
half time. 1t is dangerous to COM
ment on this for fear the rejoinder
Of the democratic party may be that
we are espousing the cause of the hen
rather than that of the American
workingman, and besides the hens
which suffered enforced idleness had
just SO much more time to improve
their minds in the study Of psychol
ogy.

Use Tor st-qweed.

Settlers in western Kansas are find
ing that there is money in the de-
spised soapweed that they have been
burning to get 1t out OF the way. Soap
manufacturers are. now paying sSi a
ton, for the plant at the railway sta
tions. Since man can ordinarily get
out. a ton q day. the gathering OF the
soap weed gives the settler a chance
to make. good wages at time when
there is nothing to do on the farm or
ranch. Besides. every plant means
just that much more pasture ground.
After cutting. the soapweed is allowed
to dry from so to 90 days and is then
baled in ordinary broom-corn ma
chimes. This species OF. Spanish bay
onet gathered by the Kansas farmers
is technically known as bacsta and
has exceptionally large fruit. For a
long timesthis weed has been made
into a soapy decoction which the
Indian and Mexican women have
used, particularly for washing their
hair. It is well suited for this pur-
pose as it contains no alkali. Pres
ent-day manufacturers use it for toilet
and wool soaps.

Uncle Sam has more than $4,000 en-

pays an average of S1,135 year. or :
total of about SAL 100000. The higi;
set average salaries are paid to White
louise employees who get $4,000 4
-evc- aun the lowest is paid to employ
ing, averaging $3.50 year. Co-opera'
tive buying is now practiced by pavi
o; the employees. and it is suggested
that this and other cooperative ac'
tivities might be profitably cpracticed
by the entire army of Uncle Sans
