And then my mother comes t"
me and says, cheer up, my boy,
this life is full of sunshine and
happiness anu joy; but when
you've turned your face aside,
and looking at the wall. you'll

HOW WAR HAS HELPED
PROSPERITY

Secretary Redfeld's estimate
that American export trade Tor
the current fiscal year will
amount to $2,75O,0O,00 gives
fair indication the manner IN
which the prosperity of the Uni
ted States was assisted by the
European war.
Following the enactment OF the
low tariff bill, imports increased
to an unprecedented figure. Sim
ultaneously the balance OF trade,
which previously had been in fav-
or of the United States, began to
fall off, until finally the balance
turned against this country.
War orders and the orders OF
railroads which resulted from )
per cent increase have been re-
sponsible for the prosperity which
is now sweeping the country.
When the war is over, however,
conditions again will be the same
as they were following the enact
ment of the low tariff bill unless
the Democratic party should do
the unexpected thing and restore
the tariff to a protective basis.
The reason why most business
men are disregarding the fact that
export business alone has brought
prosperity is because they have
aith in the people of the United
States. They know that the PEG
pie will see to it that the protec-
tive tariff is restored. They know
that as soon as the warning ma
tions cease to call for goods from
the United States a protective
tariff will replace the S2,75O,OOO,-
900 export business with even a
richer domestic business. Auy
mistakes made by the party in
power will be corrected at the
polls.-Washington Post.
Yerington times. [volume] (Yerington, Nev.) 1907-1932, 1915-05-15
GERMANS WOULD DO IT
FOR ONE-HALF

The persistent claim of the
Democratic administration that
the depression in business is due
entirely to the war does not hold
when the effects OF the tariff bill
are accounted for. The depres-
sion was in evidence long before
the war began, and it was directly
traceable to the Underwood-Sim-
mons bill, which was not only de-
fcient as a revenue raiser, but a
cordial invitation to the foreign
manufacturer to come in and take
the home market away from the
American manufacturer who
could not compete with the low
priced labor of Europe.
One of the most striking OBJ
iect lessons of the advantage the
European manufacturer has over
his American competitor without
a protective tariff was contained
in a statement recently made by
w. H. Morgan, an Alliance, o.,
manufacturer. In order to secure
definite information as to how
the Democratic tariff would work,
he advertised for proposals on
certain steel castings, similar, by
the way, to those manufactured
by his company. The represent
ative of a German concern called
on him in response to the adver-
tisement and solicited the bust
ness. The price quotation on the
castings was about one-half what
his Alliance company was getting
for them. Mr.. Morgan was amaz-
ed, and asked the German how It
could be done. The explanation
was that the minimum wage paid
for American labor required on
the castings was $3.50 a day,
whereas the maximum in German
was Sl.50. In fact, Mr.. Morgan
was informed that German fac
tories could deliver steel castings
in this country at about the price
charged here for iron castings.
1t is true that the war has a
present effect on industry and
trade in this way, that it is acting
as a protective tariff; in disturb
ing the industrial conditions in
the belligerent countries, and in
the interruption of traffic between
the United States and the nations
at war. When the war is over
and industry and ocean traffic re-
sumo their normal conditions
then we shall see the effects of the
uninterrupted working of the
Democratic tariff in a greater de-
preston than has yet been ex-
perienced.-Wheeling CIV. W
Intelligencer.
Yerington times. [volume] (Yerington, Nev.) 1907-1932, 1915-05-15
WILL CREATE A TARIFF
EMERGENCY

Even Democrats who are at
heart free traders admit that the
war has created an emergency
condition., and that as practical
matter it must be faced. 1t is not
so much the war as the ending OF
the war that will cause tariff
emergency in favor of American
manufacturers, a tariff higher
than the most ardent protection
list ever dreamed. : Many lines
have ceased to be manufactured
in Europe. Other lines which
have been manufactured in the
cannot reach the United States.
Furthermore, ocean freight rates
have risen enormously, in some
cases as much as 200 per cent,
making tariff wall which en-
ables the American manufacturer
to ignore entirely all foreign COM
petition. When the war ends,
this artificial tariff wall will dis
appear suddenly. This sudden
disappearance of an artificial
tariff will leave the American
manufacturer helpless, and when
the war does end there should be
a statutory tariff to resist the
shock. That will be part of the
