tons, such as the tariff from being a

politics were discussed here today by
Secretary William G. McAdoo at a
breakfast rendered him by state off,
Gals and citizens of Montana.
We are trying" said Mr.. McAdoo.
ito take certain fundamental questions
out of politics so that they may not
be party questions in the future as
they have been in the past. Among
them is the tariff
Politicians have gone up and down
the country" he continued telling
us that their particular party could
bring prosperity. First it was the Re-
publicans then the Democrats. Then
politicians have been playing this
game Of see-saw to get offices but
their predictions and promises are ali
bunk. We have not had any real
prosperity in the United States for 10
Years because our business outgrew
the clumsy financial system which we
have been telling about correcting for
80 years, but which we did not get
to until President Wilson insisted on
Congress taking it up as soon as the
tariff bill was out of the way"
