STATEN ISLAND THANKFUL
FOR TRADE BOARD ACTION

The decision in favor of the Staten
Island interests in their fight to pre-
vent the establishment of the garbage
disposal plant on the Great Fresh
Kills carries with 1t certain amount
] of satisfaction and congratulation for
, the Board of Trade. The president
| of the board, o. w. Ramsay, has been
organizations for his help in their
| behalf
1t has been said that the local in
terests aided more than any other
outside interests in the fight against
| the plant. The various meetings,
conferences and other arrangements
in which the local men took part
helped considerably in the successful
| report of the commissioner of the
New York State Health Department
| which, it is firmly believed, will
mean the end of the effort to estab-
lish the disposal plant on Staten
| Island.
The Staten Island Civic League.
which led the fight against the plant,
has thanked the local president for
his work for them. They say that his
efforts were of inestimable value in
! their work. Mr.. Ramsay took many
steps to aid the people of the borough,
including the services of an engineer,
who gave very interesting data regard
ing the sanitary aspect of the plant,
and its relation to the health of the
Island inhabitants and those Of sur
rounding places, which were affected
| by the plant. This engineer. employed
| by the local man, gave considerable
| data to District Attorney Albert c.
Each, of Staten Island and to the al
liec organizations which forced the
| fight against the plant.
The local board sent representa-
.tives to Washington, to hearings. in
Staten Island, held conferences with
Island authorities and meetings Of the
directors Of the local board, and with
data and physical help, greatly aided
the successful fight against the estab-
lishme ent OF the plant.

That the inhabitants of the
mountain regions of Stevens cOun-
ty are vieing with those of the
Allegheny hills of Virginia and
Carolina, in the illicit manufac-
ture of alcoholic spirits was en-
phasized last week when D. w.
Porter, a farmer and by reputa-
ton a leading citizen Of the Ar
zina district, 20 miles west of Col
vile, was taken in custody by G.
B. Montague a special agent in
the U. S. revenue service with
headquarters at Portland. Porter
was charged with having in his
possession a quantity of alcoholic
liquor upon which had not been
paid the required government
revenue. When arraigned before
Z. S. circuit court commissioner
Kathrine S. Ide, the defendant,
who is a one-armed man, waived
examination and was placed under
81 900 bail to await the action OF
the U. S. grand jury at Spokane,
in default of which he was taken
to Spokane by deputy U. S. mar
shal Fred Thorp.
The mountains in the Arzina
neighborhood are rugged, heavily
timbered and cut by deep, dark
ravines where abundant water

up the American manufacture of
cOloring matter, or of the acids
which are used in many lines of
paper and textile manufacture,
hence today we pay the penalty
in increased prices. The tariff
DID permit eastern manufacture
ers to reap enormous profits on
manufactured articles, because
their competitors were shut out,
but these same manufacturers
bought their chemicals and dye
stutfs from Germany and contin-
ued to buy them there because
they could buy cheap. They in
sisted on being protected in what
they sold, but wanted low prices
on what they bought. Therefore
they waxed rich.
The European war, and the
scarcity of ships, have acted as a
high protective tariff wall to this
country. When goods can not be
brought here at any price, it is
the same as high protective
tariff. And when Germany ceas-
ed shipping dyestuffs here, the
prices scared from 10 per cent to
1000 per cent. The people pay
this.
When the present congress, for
purpose of revenue, voted to re-
tain the last remnant of the tariff
on sugar, look how the sugar
price went up And the consum-
ers pay for it. Every time a
tariff wall is erected, the common
people pay the difference.
! The present increase in prices
Of commodities is partly from alb
normal war conditions, and partly
from the deficiencies of the old
republican high tariff. War al
ways overturns business stand
ards, which is one reason why
President Wilson has not wanted
this nation to get into any more
trouble than the war has already
brought to us.
The tariff manipulations of the
republican party are responsible
for a part of the present increase.
Only such industries were created
under the high tariff as best con-
served the pocketbOoks of the
tariff people, and the articles
which could be bought cheaper in
Germany than they could make
them here were steadily bought
from Europe and then retailed by
our manufacturers at the high
prices they were able to get under
the tariffs which protected"
their manufactured articles.
The last two years have dem
onstrated the need of tariff COM
mission which shall be non-parti-
san and not especially favorable
to any one set of men. Then a
war condition may be met. Or in
a period of peace, home industry
may be created. But high re-
publican tariff made for the ben
eft of Wall street and it's friends
is always paid for by the people.
We are paying it now.

The Sunshine Highway, from

Ihe sunshine highway, Iroih
Boundary, in Stevens county, to
Nogalez, Arizona, is the plan OF
the Sunshine Highway Associa-
tion to form a north -and-south
roadway which will connect six
states and pass through % coun-
ties and 274 cities and towns.
In Washington it will follow
closely the Inland Empire high
way from Boundary to Lewiston,
and the Spokane county section is
nearly all paved or will be paved
within a few months. Passing
through Colville it will reach Spo-
kane by way of Deer Park, Deni-
son, Wayside and Dartford. On
the south it will pass through
Marshall, Spangle, Plaza and Ro-
salia and directly to Lewiston.
From Lewiston the route will
lead to Grangeville and by way of
Weiser to Boise and on to Twin
Falls. 1t then will go south
through Nevada to Ely and south
west to Beaver in Utah. 1t will
swing back southwest to Las We
gas in Nevada and south to
Needles, Cal A swing to the
northeast will take the road to
Peach Springs in Arizona, south
east to Ashfork, south through
Prescott and Phoenix and through
Tucson to Noagles on the Mexi-
can border.
The road will cover 2,248 miles,
traversing six states and % coun-
ties, touching two state capitals
and 20 county seats. The cOun-
ties traversed have a total popula
ton of 51O,392. The Sunshine
highway has been approved by
the National Highway Association,
according to A. l.. Westgard, vice
president and director Of trans
continental highways.

flows IN crystal streams out to the
farms that skirt the range and
sweep out to the Columbia river,
forming an ideal retreat for the
moonshiner. Porter halls from
the Appalachian range where, it
is said, his ancestors were engaged
in the distillery business. 1t was
at the opening Of one of these can
yons that Porter owned a ranch
of 160 acres. A cedar swamp
formed part of his holdings. To
get to Porter's place numerous
houses along the country road oc-
cupied by friends of Porter had
to be passed and the telephone
could spread the alarm in the
event of an intruding stranger.
Montague, being alert to the dan
gers of an expedition of this sort,
secured deputy sheriff Bryant for
guide and approached the
neighborhood by automobile.
They met Porter on horseback en-
route to town for his weekly sup
plies. Thep stopped to inquire of
him the way to a settlers place
far out of the range of their pur-
posed destination. Porter very
obligingly directed them and saw
that they did not take the wrong
road, thus being thrown complete
ly off his guard. When they
reached a convenient place they
shunted their auto into the brush
and the two officers took to the
summit of the range remote from
the settlements, following noun
tain paths, scaling precipitous
bluffs and hazarding the heights
until they reached the spring at
the source of the stream which
opens to the valley at Porter's
house.
Following the stream through
an almost impossible thicket, the
snow still hanging in the deep
chasm, they struck trail which
terminated at a rounded stone
furnace, the type used in the H.
licit business. 1t had been recent
ly used but the kettle and the
worm had been removed. Con-
tinuing to the swamp they found
a trail leading from the house to
the timber. This they followed
few hundred feet to another
furnace similar to the first one,
but the kettle and worm had been
removed from this too. Though
no roof covered either still, an eX-
animation of the ground disclosed
a cache of considerable quantity
of genuine corn whisky. At the
house ten gallon keg contained
four gallons of whisky identical
with that found at the still. The
two outfits were cOnfScated and
the liquor taken in charge to be
used as evidence. On the return
trip they met Porter, formally
placed him under arrest, and
brought him to the county Jail at
Colville.
It is not known how extensively
the "moonshine" was distributed,
but it is claimed that fully dozen
places in as many neighboring
towns have been supplied regular
ly with intoxicants, the product
even reaching Spokane. The still,
so local officers say, has been in
operation to their knowledge for
about five years without exciting
public attention. A number Of
neighbors are under suspicion as
having had an active interest in
the whisky manufactured by Por-
ter. 1t is said that there are many
families in the cummunity who
came from Porter's home in the
east.
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1916-05-06

Within the last few months
there has come to the west an in
crease in the price of number of
manufactured articles, the in
crease being direct result of the
influence of the European war,
and an indirect result of the tariff
policy which this country main
tanned for a number of years.
Increases have come in the prices
of articles manufactured from
metals, from certain cloths, from
nearly all dyestuffs and coloring
matter.
Hardware stores find that the
rising metal market has forced up
prices in the east, manufacturers
not only paying more for the raw
metals, but more wages to the
skilled men. Europe is using our
metals, and the munitions makers
can and do pay almost any price
asked for metals, skilled work
men, and for the other things
which are used in making guns,
shells, explosives, and war equip
ment.
The bottling up of Germany has
cut us off from our dyestuffs mar
ket. The extravagant prices
which munitions makers are will
ing to pay for the chemicals
which are used in making color
ing matter, cloth, paper, ETC., pre-
vent our own country from max
ing a sufficient quality and guam
tity of coloring matter to supply
our demands. And the increase
in wages of skilled mechanics has
brought an increase in the price
of many manufactured articles.
Coloring matter and the chemi-
Gals used in the paper and cloth
factories are now either unobtain-
able or so high priced that fac
tories are not trying to buy them.
When a munitions maker stands
ready to buy the entire output
of a chemical factory, and to pay
6 cents pound for old rags,
there is little chance for paper
and textile mills to try to com
pete. for Europe will pay any
price for the munitions, while our
own people have a limit which
they will pay for manufactured
products.
The tariff bogey has been
Haunted in the faces of voters for
so many years that almost any
statement may be made as to
what it has done and what it has
not done. But the old tariff pol
