THE TARIFF PROBLEM
II Promises to Be the Keynote Of
Next National Campaign.
slmmonSunderwood Law VIII Be
Held Responsible for Lack Of EN-
ployment for Thousands Of
Worklnomen.

speaking for the Pacific Northwest,
the Spokane Spokesman-Review in
weighs against the new fiscal policy
of the United States for which the
existing federal administration is re-
sponsible. II sums up the situation
at the present a. follows:
Passage Of the slmmons-U Underwood
tariff bill by the Democratic party
carried the United States a long way
toward the ultimate Democratic goal
[ free trade. That fact stands out in
rong relief In a recent department OF
Smmerce review of the country'r for
ign trade. Prior to the enactment OF
he new law import were almost
venly divided between the dutiable
list and the free list. For example. Of
the total imports tin 1910, $755.S11.-
1896 were free Of duty. and 1901. 636.034
were dutiable in 1911. s776.972,509 and
$3.50. 253.596 respectively. But in 1914.
first full calendar year under the new
tariff law, imports dut free totaled
$l,127. 500 500. as against 1891, 1856. 2S9
dutiable. In February, this year duty
free imports we're nearly twice as
J much as dutiable imports-in round
numbers 10000. 900 and s45. 900. 900
respectively.
II asserts that on this record the
presidential campaign OF 1916 will be
vigorously contested between the free
traders and the advocates Of protec-
ton. and that the issue will be espe-
cially keen In the states Of the Pa
cihc Northwest. where the free trade
theories of the Democracy are given
their most sweeping application" But
if disgruntlement with Democratic
free trade notions is active now. 1t
will be much more active under condi-
tons that are sure to arise after the
war. Then there will be a sharper
struggle than ever by Europeans for
advantage In American markets, and
the difference between the high wages
current here and the low wages gen
orally current in Europe will tend
TO put American manufacturers out OF
business and throw American work
ingmen out of employment unless
there is a speedy restoration OF the
protective principle in American tariff
laws.

Rebuilding Bridges.

One of the most gratifying results
of the present war excitement in
Great Britain is the action of the
house of lords providing for a gen.
eral Strengthening of the bridges
along the main roads of motor traffic.
These bridges we're mostly under the
management of the big railroad com
panies, and the heavy truck traffic
did not appeal to them enough to
cause them to expend either money
or labor in Strengthening the bridges.
The heavy traffic in motor trucks for
the British war department has
brought the question of strong bridges
wildly before the people, and strong
pressure is being brought by the
courts, officials of the government
md the press on the railroads. The
esult is that bridges are rebuilt all
yer the country.

New England contain fair of
this material. In none of these places,
however. has potash been found in
such quantities that the price could
compare with the potash from the
German mines in time of peace.
The latest deposit is found in tbe
mud OF Columbus marsh, in Nevada.
This has an .rea of thirty-ive square

in this mud, but, as is the case with
other deposits, there is not enough of
it to warrant handling it CONNER
