Perhaps.

Up to the nresent time the op-
erations of the new tariff which
the Democrats made such haste
to put in effect have not been
such as to promote prosperity
such as the Democratic party
promised to provide. Our read
ers will recall that manufac tur-
ing operations were to be stimu-
lated, the demand for labor was
to be increased so that there
would be no idlers among those
willing to work, wages were to
be hetter than ever before, while
the cost OF living was to be great
ly reduced. When these things
actually come to pass, when even
with the aid of income taxes, war
taxes and other devices for op-
pressing the citizens the Wilson
administration is able to provide
sufficient funds to run the gov
ernment from years end to years.

was imperative. The Customs
court, having no consideration
FOR partisan necessities, says it is
operative. MT only for our ships,
but for the ships of all the most

Those industrious agents of the
present national administration
who are so Jealous in proclaiming
the restoration of good times
should adhere to facts. The pla-
cling of a few orders for railroad
cars and locomotives seems to
have thrown them into such an
ecstacy of joy that they blind
themselves to the actual situation
as shown by comparisons. The
Boston News Bureau points out
that in the first four months of
1914 the railroads bought Al, 500
cars and 476 locomotives, while
in the same period of the present
year they bought only 10, ,O47 cars
and 224 locomotives. This shows
the kind of revival of business
we are enjoying as basis for all
the shouting of the defenders of
the Democratic regime.

Secretary of Agriculture D. F.
Houston, urges enactment of laws
in all the states to protect sheep
from the depredations of dogs.
But why stop there? There are
three we'll known enemies of the
sheep-death, dogs, and Democ-
racy. Since the Department of
Agriculture has long supplied
remedies against sheep diseases
and now proposes protection a.
gainst dogs, why not aid further
by pointing out the seriousness
of the menace of free wool? More
sheep have shed their blood on
the altar of free wool than ever
lost it through the depredations
of dogs.

Where Is That Mule
Now?

When it was proposed to put
tin plate on the protected list,
and when it was incorporated in
the Mckinley tariff act of 1890,
and the Register favored, one of
Iowa's daily newspapers said that
it's editor ''owned a mule that
could sat all the tin plate that
could ever be manufactured in
this country Where is that
mule now? Before the McKin-
ley bill became a law we impor-
ted every pound of tin plate used
in this country. In 1880 we i'm
ported 379, 9O2,O pounds. Ten
years after, 1890, our imports
shrank to 147,683!OOO pounds.
Now tin plate imports are mere.

The degradation of Congress
in these latter days of the new
freedom" has been made the sub
ject of comment by a writer in
LaFolIette's Magazine, who points
out that the Democratic machine
that dominated the House in the
sixtythird Congress was the worst
ever. And then he goes on to
show that "the lower branch Of
Congress has descended to the
'shoes-soled .while-you-wait' lev
ell in legislation" 1t is all done
by a few leaders.

Facts for Farmers.

The foreign dried egg industry
is one the growth of which will
be watched BY the farmers of
this country with some anxiety
in the future, unless some steps
are taken to meet the situation.
Witnesses before the Ways and
Means comnittee in 1909 stated
that eggs contain about 73 per
cent water and q per cent solid
matter. 1t requires three dozen
eggs to make a pound of dried
product, which is manufactured
by breaking the eggs into paten-
ted evaporating pans, slow heat
applied, and the resultant des-
sicated mixture placed in con-
tainers, sealed, and kept at re-
frigeration temperatures. A large
portion of this product was man
ufactured in Topeka, Kansas.
from eggs purchased from wes-
tern farmers.
These witnesses asked for a
duty of Is cents a pound on dried
eggs, intimating that unless such
a duty was provided tn e
Chinese would soon begin to
take advantage of the situation
and get into our markets. The
duty requested was granted. But
the Underwood law cut this duty
to 1Ocents a pound. That this was
too low, and that these witnesses
were justified in raking their
forecast is apparent from the
statement of U. S. Commercial
Agent E. T. Babbitt. San Fran
cisco, California, who says: "Sev-
eraI of the largest bakers supply
houses of the United States con-
template erecting factories and
drying Llants in China to manu-
facture dried and dessicatGd eggs.
One plant has already Eeen es-
tablished near Hankow and an
other is to be erected at Shang-
hal with a branch at Tientsin. 1t
is planned to market the produce
in one-pound tins and several
grades will be marketed.
True, it is American and not
Chinese who are entering the
business, but the eggs will be
bought from China. and not from
western farmers, as formerly,
and the dried product will Come
into competition with the eggs
produced in this country. A tru
Iy protective duty would stop this
sort of thing.

MORE OLD SOLDIERS
RIDE IN BROOKLYN
Increasing Number of Veter-
ans. Unable to March.

Thousands OF spectators. lining the
route OF the Brooklyn Memorial Day pa

usual enthusiasm the aged veterans and
the National Guardsmen who marched
with them.

there. Thirteen OF its members trudged
pluckily behind a war tat,ered flag. and

The increasing number OF the car
riages-there were hundreds OF them
this year--drove home the saddening
fact that age was numbering the fee,
OF the men who once blithely marched
to war.
At the head o. ,he parade was a de-
tachment OF regulars from Fort Hamil-
ton and a company OF bluetacksts from
the battleship Arkansas, moving witt
all the vigor OF youth and the pre-,
cision Of machines. and behind them was
the First Cavalry. with It's Jingle and
clatter.
The parade moved along Bedford ave
nue to the Eastern Parkway and thence
to Prospect Park Plaza ard through the
Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch.
Close to 100, 900 spectators fringed ths
way. but there seemed 10 be less OF thu
