THAT $40 TAX LEVY.

The Cottonwood Chronicle and the
Grangeville Globe seem to be having
quite a mix up over the tax levy re-
Gently made by Idaho county. The com
missioners OF this and other old coun-
ties, were called upon to face a very
serious difficulty by acts OF the past
two legislatures, which provided, first:
that all outstanding warrant indebted
ness must be paid at once and, second;
that no new Indebtedness may be Gre
ated, and making It a misdemeanor for
a public official to issue deficiency
warrant. This is mandatory upon the
county commissioners to not only levy
enough money to meet all current ex-
penses but also enough to pay all out
standing warrants, in this case amount
ing to some $4,000. This seems to be
the reason for the excessive levy this
year and should mean a material reduc.

years, as the commissioners win have

This quotation is from the Demo-

of national Importance. Mack was one
of the first Democrats to declare open
ly that the Underwood tariff law was
defective, and one of the first to as
sert that American industry needed
greater protection than the Underwood
law affords. He found few sympathizers
at first, but now that he has reopened
his campaign for revision OF the I'M

coming to his support and there is de-

REDFIEL DIS VIEWS.

REDFlELD'S VIEWS.
Washington, Oct. 19.-No lass a per
son than Secretary Of Commerce Red
field has admitted the necessity for
legislation TO provide that unfair COM
petition from abroad at ahe close of
the war ''shaM not be permitted to in
jure American industry" The secretary
has announced that in his next annual
report to congress he will recommend
the enactment OF laws to prevent the
dumping of foreign products into
the American market.
Considered in connection with Secre-
tary Redfields statement, the action of
the Democratic congress in eliminating
the "anti-dumr ing clause from the
Underwood tariff law assumes tho pro-
portions OF a colossal blunder.
Fear Foreign Labor.
That the enactment OF the Underwood
bill would render imperative at east a
small measure Of protection to Ameri-
can industries was conceded by the way
and means committee when 1t reported
the tariff bill To provide 1t the COM
mittee recommended an "anti- dumping
clause, declaring in Its report that it
was to guard the producers of the
United States against the demoraliza-
ton OF American markets caused by low
priced foreign importations.'
The clause provided in substance that
upon exported foreign articles not on
the free list also manufactured in the
United States, special duty of not to
exceed fifteen per cent should be lev
led whenever the foreign price was less
than the fair market value at home
The house passed this provision The
Republicans unsuccessfully tried to
amend 1t and then voted for IT 60 a
man. The senate finance committee
struck 1t from the BILL and in spite OF
United Republican efforts to amend and
restore 1T, the tariff bill passed the
senate without the anti-dnmping clause.
eventually becoming law In that form.
The anti-dumping clause thus thrown
into the discard by the Democrats was
very evidently necessity. the demand
for which was actually emphasized by
the passage of the law from which 1t
was finally eliminated.
In recommending anti-dumping Degis-
iation now, Secretary Redfield has not
merely turned the limeiight upon leg
islative blunder OF his party. He has
justified the position of the Republi-
cans and virtually championed their
cause.

Floods VIEWS.

New Freedom oct. %: When nations
are at war and spending their surplus
earnings while decreasing their product
i've energy they are not as dangerous
as competitors as when they are fol-
lowing the same policy of peace and nor
NAL business activities.
The Republican tariff advocates who
are sending out warnings about what
will happen to us If our present tariff
is not amended upward gives us no sub
stantlal reason for thinking that Eu-
rope viii be able to produce goods one
cent cheaper then than they ever did
There are certainly less able bodied
skilled workers in Europe today than
there was a year ago and at the end OF
the war there will be even less than
now. F'ur.h ermore there will be great
local demand for goods that has been
created by privation during the war;
whole districts being cut from supply
from abroad until there has been ex-
haustion.
AS Europe was our greatest market,
is il not our best plan to help them
build II up again? How can we help
them build 1t up again If we put up a
tariff barrier against their struggling
industry which will be an immense
handicap in comparison with our own
because they will be forced to pay
much higher rate for liquid capital?
But some will say: The Amer
lean will be driven out of the manufac-
turing business II foreign low priced
goods come into this country. not II
he manufactures good wares. Legitimate
American manufacturers are not demand
tariffs-they are able to beat the for
tariffs--they ar cable to beat the for
eigner at his own game of producing
cheaply. The manufacturer who is
clamoring for a tariff is he who does
not wish to give value received.
The tariff question is more than
economic, it is a question of morals.

Democratic standpatters.

For some time the Democratic
party has been lambasting standpat
Republicans. Indeed. it is in full con-
troll of the government today as the
result of campaign waged by it on
the issue of standpatism. It sought
and obtained power on the allega-
ton that the Republicans were behind
the times. and refused to catch up.
Out with the standpatters!
At present there is the spectacle of
Democratic standpatters. There are
men who refuse or are unable to see
the change that has come over the
world in the past fifteen months. Be
cause they voted for the Underwood
tariff two years ago they feel barred
from voting to revise it now. Be
cause they could see no need for a
larger army or navy two or even one
year ago they feel barred from voting
for an increase now. AS they are in
office on the strength of a cry against
standpatters they should get a move
on.

Mr.. McAdoo's Merchant Marine.

To replace the shipping which leg
islation of the party in power has eff
fectively wiped of the sea, Secretary
McAdoo has two suggestions.
First, to promote commerce with
countries where traffic is insufficient
to support a steamship line, ships shall
be built by the government and be
operated by a government owned COM
pany in order that the administration
may be free from the necessity of in
trusting them to deserving Democrats.
Second, all other classes of ship
ping. excepting that on the great
lakes, which is specifically excepted
from all government favor, are to be
provided by building ships at the gov
ernment's expense and leasing them
to the fortunate, or more likely, TO the
influential, at rates far below cost,
which should be as highly remunera-
tive to the charterers as costly to the
government.
The argument for this plan Of spe'
cial privilege is that the Democratic
congress and the Democratic presi
dent are unwilling to pay subsidy
but will turn over to favored people
for less than they are worth millions
upon millions of dollars of ships built
at government expense.

MUST CHANGE LAW
Need for Increased Revenue Il
Apparent.
Even the Democratic Leaders Will Be
Compelled to See That a Tariff
forRevenue-onIy Policy Is
Harmina the Country.

If the Democratic party does not
see its way clear to reverse itself and
restore protection in anticipation OF
the end of the war, the least that can
be done is TO permit a revision that
will vindicate the party's tariff-for-rev.
enue-only doctrine. The existing law
does not raise the revenue needed by
the government.
What the party means by a tariff
for revenue only has always been
shrouded in mystery. No definite sum
has ever been fixed as the maximum
that should be raised from customs.
Presumably the theory is that be-
yond a certain point a tariff will
cease to provide revenue because it
becomes prohibitive. Presumably also
an effort is made to discover at what
point the revenue-producing results
are at the maximum.
Certainly that would seem to be the
logical way of making tariff for rev.
nue. only, but the fact that sugar and
raw wool, the best revenue producers
in the list, were made free of duty
would seem to indicate that there was
to be a certain amount of free trade
ON the side.
Whether the Democratic party In
tended to make a tariff for revenue
only or some other kind of law. the
fact remains that 20 per cent of all
goods are now coming into this coun-
try absolutely free of duty, according
to the statement of the secretary of
commerce. This despite the fact that
sugar. even now, is producing an an
nual revenue of at least S50,000,00O.
Strictly from the Democratic stand
point, it must be admitted that the
tariff is not producing the revenue
that might be expected from 1t. In
view of the needs of the treasury,
surely there should be no hesitancy
in revising the tariff to the maximum
revenue-producing standard.
