A commercial report informs us that
japan is buying a large number of
sheep from Australia. The sheep in
dustry is to be developed in Japan,
and her wooden and worsted mills will
soon rely on her domestic supply of
wool Under the Democratic law she
is getting into our market with cotton
goods to an extent unprecedented in
the history of our trade with the King
dom of the Sun. There is no reason
why, under the same law, she cannot
do so with wooden goods. Voters who
are permitting the Democratic party
to blindfold them with the foreign pol,
icy, should remove that bandage and
take a look forward before casting
their ballot.

The Shields water power bill, which
administration Democrats have just
succeeded in driving through the Sen.
ate, is denounced by Clifford Pinchot
as something most outrageous. And
Pinchot declares that President Wilson
was fully informed of the evil char
aeter of the measure and refused to
lift a finger in opposition to it. The
logical conclusion of this should be
that Pinchot, with all whom he can
influence, will unite with the Republi-
can party to defeat Wilson'S re-elec-
tion. But Pinehot is always more pro-
life of language than of logic in po-
litical affairs.
