In every rational campaign with
in the recollection of this generation,
the burden of the argument of the
Democrats has been that under pro-
tective tariff system the American
consumer pays the tax. Although
the statement was denied by Repub-
Leans it was renewed and reiterated
until many people believed it. Now
the Demo cratic administration has
disproved it. Protective duties were
reduced or removed. Did the con-
sumner pay less for his food and cloth
ing? According to the records of
this administration he paid slightly
more, even before prices were affect
ed by the war. The fact is, there
fore, as always declared by Republi
cans, that the foreign producer, the
importer of the middleman pays the
tax, and when, the tariff was reduced
or removed, the foreign producer,
the importer of the middleman put
the difference in his own pocket. The
consumer paid no less but
the American producer lost his job.

Four powerful searchlights have
been installed on the fortified islands
in Panama bay at the Pacific en-
trance to the Panama canal. These
lights are 60 inches in circumference
and are capable of sending their rays
about IL miles out to sea. The first
time the brilliant rays were shot
across the bay toward Panama city
it caused considerable excitement
among the native population, which
had never before seen large search

Vienna folks are drinking their
coffee without cream now. The
Austro-Hungarian government has
prohibited skimming of milk and sell
ing the cream owing to the short
age of fodder and the consequent
elimination of the milk supply. This
stops the making and selling of ice
cream, serving cream with coffee and
the production of confections with
cream top layers or filling.

Better Price for Fruit,

Apple growers of the San Juan
basin will receive much better price
for their crop this year than last.
In fact, it will be remembered that
thousands of boxes of first-class APP
pies were fed to the hogs during
the winter months as there was no
market. This was the case with
many of the choicest varieties. But
it is going to be different this year
as the price for a fair grade of
fruit will at least average one dol
lar per box during the fall and early
winter season and will probably reach
considerable higher figure before
spring, all of which is pleasing to
those who have will laden trees of

The proposition to make the San
Juan basin a national park, with all
the red tape regulations incident to
such parks, the adjustment Of min
ing, the driving away of thousands of
sheep, cattle and horses, sounds
strange to our people, yet such a
project has been proposed. The basin
wants less governmental interference
with It's development of natural re-
sources, instead of more restrictions,
