The Fairbanks Platform.

At Louisville Friday night Mr.. Fair
banks delivered speech from which
may be inferred the basis of the Fair
banks boom for the presidency. The
Indiana man is not an announced can
didate, but his friends at home and
elsewhere believe he would meet all
the republican requirements next
year, and hence are moving for his
nomination.
The Kentucky republicans are en-
gagged in a state campaign, and Mr..
Fairbanks crossed the Ohio river to
give them lift This is the pro-
gram he suggested as necessary to
the country's welfare in the near fu-
ture:
First. the restoration of the pro-
tcCtIve tariff; second. adequate pre-
paredness for national defense; third,
the restoration of the American flag
to the oceans fourth, organization to
market our wares in the world mar
ketS."
Every proposition as sound as a
dollar. Every one guaranteeing rich
harvest of dollars. Taken together,
they make as good a platform as
could possibly be constructed. And
on such a platform Mr. Fairbanks,
not alone by reason of his present
expressions. but also because of his
record while in Office, could stand
with both feet. Indeed, it is plat
form upon which the next republic
can nominee for the presidency must
stand, whether he be Mr. Fairbanks
or another.
Details, OF course, have yet to be
worked out. But Congress will af-
ford that opportunity. In the debates
OF the coming session the republicans
must show their hands as to the
measure OF protection that should be
afforded, the sort of national defense
that should be provided, the proper
way OF restoring the American flag
to the oceans, and the best means of
extending and increasing our foreign
trade. Their votes in House and Sen
ate on those points set against the
votes of the democrats will constitute
their appeal to the country in the
presidential campaign.
MIR. Fairbanks put the necessity for
tariff revision on protection lines in
this very forcible way:
TO our shores will roll tide of
commercial lnvasions, which will be
paralyzing under free trade or a
tariff for revenue only policy. We
are even more unprepared to resist
commercial than military invasion.
The weapon of cheapness, welded by
our impoverished commercial rivals,
will be irresistible. Military invasion
is remotely possible; commercial in
vasion is deadly certain We believe
IN adequate military preparedness,
but to prepare for uncertainties and
not for certainties seems incon-
sistent. We are Mortified by the dis
tresses arising from war, but are they
to be more dreaded than the despair
and hunger that arise from industrial
panic?"

tention everywhere and by both par
ties. Let US have an adequate ma
tional defense both as respects our
territory and our trade. The one as
well as the other is necessary to our
well-being, and neither, in the pres
ent upheaved state OF the world
should be left unprotected. as both
are now.

while there has been a steady de
crease In the percentage Of our popula-
ton engaged in agriculture. the per

has been increasing. This is primarily
due to the utilization Of machinery,
making 1t practicable to more and
more utilize horsepower and other pow
er instead Of man power.
Despite the fact that in practically
all other countries the intensity Of the
farming has increased with the density
OF population. this need not follow
here. 1t would be unfortunate IL 1t did
follow. because an intensive agricul-
ture has been practicable only where
there is an oversupply Of human Ia

areas have been made possible only by
the toll and sweat Of the man who.

and that was that Henderson county

MILLS GET
SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE.
Local Mills Receive Orders From For
eign Countries. Shortage of Dyes
Looks Serious.


Hendersonville manufacturers are
already enjoying a share of the much
~ sought South American trade. Dur
ing the past week the Freeze Bacon
hosiery mills received through their
agents a large order of their producte
for Buenos Aires. During the fall this
company has shipped large orders to
Bordeaux, France and to New YORK
where the goods Were reshipped all
over the world.
In speaking of the prospects R. p.
Freeze stated that orders were plenti-
ful but that unless conditions improv-
ed in the dye market it would be al
most prohibitive to buy any. In one
case he stated that certain dye had
jumped in price since the war from
rs cents to $500 per pound. His
company is paying $1.36 per pound
for dyes now.
The order received by this mill for
South America consisted mostly Of
ladies' black hose In the spring it is
thought that more orders will be re-
celyed for white goods making it bet
ter for the manufacturer in the cost
OF production for while the price Of
dyes have advanced out of sight the
cost of manufactured goods have not
advanced in the same proportion.
