Federal government secures this
ideal when it is wisely administered.
This much we know of Govern
ments that have existed in the past:
What was good in them has endur-
ed; what was bad is dead or dying.
We know that the fetish of mon
a1chy is dying. Monarchy is not
progressive. Man is a progressive
being and will provide progressive
means of government TO satisfy the
ambition of a broadening vision. The
principles upon which our form of
government are established are pro-
gressive and will meet the require

betterment of humanity. They are
true heirs of all the good and great
men who have gone before. The

| What motive actuates these two
splendid types of American man

range. They understand the true
meaning of the federal union. They
would make of their country grand

MEAT PRICE SPREAD is AC-
COUNTED FOR

The facts as to who gets the
difference between the retail
prices of meats on the one hand
and the prices paid the farmer
for live animals on the other
are being sifted at last. Ken
meth F. Warner, of the Mime
sofa College of Agriculture, in
an article on Marketing Live
Stock" in a bulletin on Studies
in Marketing" by L. D. H. Weld
and others of the College of
Agriculture, shows pretty con-
clusively just what the situation
is. Is has been summarized as
follows:
The weight Of the dressed
carcass is only 81 per cent of
the live weight for cattle; II
per cent for hogs; AZ per cent
for sheep. In case of beef, the
packer sells the whole carcass
for less than he paid for the live
animal. For example in 1913,
the average price of cattle to
the packers at South st. Paul
was 1928 per hundred. Thus a
1,OOO-pound steer cost the pack
er S62.5O. He sold the carcass
for $5S.65 (average), and got
$15.O6 for by-products. Thus he
received $73.71 for the animal
that cost $3.50, a gross mar
gin of S11.21. Out of this S11.2l
the packer had to pay the ex-
penses of his packing plant, the
freight to local distributing
houses, and the operation of
these houses.
The retailer paid 1885 for
the carcass, and sold the whole
for S84.20 to consumers, at
prices ranging from II or IA
cents to 80 cents a pound, an
average of about 16 cents a
pound for the whole carcass. The
gross margin for the retailer
was S25.55, or 1913 per cent OF
selling price. Since it costs re,
tailers from 20 to 25 per cent
of sales to do business, it is ap-
parent that the retail butchers
are not making inordinately
large profits, but that the costs
of doing business are very high
The Minnesota farmer gets
for his animal about 81 or 81
per cent of the price finally paid
for the by-products and the
meat together.

SPEND YOUR MONEY At HOME

Washington May &C. Special Cor
respondence) "A striking illustration
Of the inability Of Democratic leaders
10 base their policies upon fundamen-
tai principles, is found in the columns
Of the Oregon journal, the leading
Democratic paper Of the Pacific
Northwest, which comments upon the
fact that "the gates of Europe are
barred against American tourists and
1886 100000 will be saved to this
country thereby"
The Journal says that: Instead Of
being taken out of America and spent
in Europe, this money is being spent
this year in the United States, which
means that the sum is doubled in its
effects at home. Do you realize what
the changed status means directly to
every railroad, every coastwise, lake
and steamer line, every hotel, every
summer boarding house, every garage,
every automobile dealer and repairer,
and do you realize what it means in
directly to every resident of Amer
lea ?"
And yet the Journal and its Demo
cratic co-laborers cannot see that ex-
actly the same principle is involved in
the question of a protective tariff. In
January, 1913, the United States sent
abroad something like a million and a
half dollars for breadstuifs. That was
under a Republican protective tariff.
In January, 1914, under a Democratic
tariff, the United States sent abroad
more than five million dollars for sim
liar commodities. That was an in
crease of three millions and half for
a single month on one line of COM
modities.
Every school boy can realize what
the changed status means directly t.
every producer Of breadstuffs, to every
manufacturer who is selling goods to
the producer Of breadstufs, TO every
hardware man, to every clothier, 10
every lumberman, to the butcher, the
baker, and candlestick maker.
In January, 1913, under Republi-
can tariff, the United States sent
abroad nearly a million and half
dollars for manufacturers of wool; but
in January 1914, under a Democratic
tariff, we sent abroad more than four
The Manchester journal. [volume] (Manchester, Vt.) 1861-current, 1915-05-27

millions and a half, an increase o.
three million dollars on this one com
modify for one month in the year.
This was a direct loss to the mer
who work in or operate the wooler
mills Of the United States. Those mer
are buyers of American products, pat
rons Of American laundries and bar,
Der shops, buyers of American news
papers, consumers of American food
employers of American carpenters
cobblers and bootblacks. Their buy
ing power was reduced $1,000 900 in
one month.
Let us look at the totals for January
in the two years. During that month
in 1913, the United States sent abroad
for SO specified imported products,
more than $27,000,O00; while for the
similar month in 1914, there was sent
abroad $43,000,000, or an increase of
$16,000,000 for the one month.
Commenting upon the 1886 100000
formerly spent in Europe by tourists
and now retained in the United States,
the Democratic Journal says
at does not take much of an mag
ination to grasp the meaning of the
enormous sum thus to be spent, not in
far country, but among the people
of the United States. 1t takes no ex-
aggeration of the facts to picture the
prosperity that it spells for thous-
ands."
But those words apply to money
spent for commodities just as strong
ly as to money spent by pleasure
seekers. Money spent in America for
American products gives profitable
and useful employment to millions of
thrifty, patriotic citizens.
"The sum is doubled in its effect at
home"
No stronger argument need be made
il behalf of a protective policy for the
United States than is found in the Ian
guage of the Democratic periodical
which grows so eloquent over the ex-
penditure of TOURISTS money in
America, instead of in Europe. III
those who have been accustomed to
vote the Democratic ticket, thus invit-
ing American to spend their money
for the employment of foreign labor
ond foreign capital abroad, would be
fair enough to acknowledge the appli-
alton of the same principle to the
