able women of that group are reckon

a mother or a sister.
Those individuals whose fathers be-
long to the same clan stand to each
other in very special relation, which
for want of better name may be call

privileged to play pranks and practical

DEMOCRATIC FREE TRADE
How It Affects the Farmer and Stock
Raiser

During the ten months Of the fiscal
year 1918, under the Republican pro-
tective tariff there was imported into
this country meat and dairy products
to the value Of $12,000,000. The
bulk OF this was foreign cheese. Seven
OF the ten months ended April 1914,
were under the Democratic tarif-for-
less-than,revenue law, with most OF
these products on the free list, and
for this ten months period foreign COM
petitors sent meat and dairy products
into the American market to the value
of $28,000,00O the bulk Of them
being meats. Nine OF the ten months
ended April 1915 were under European
war conditions, Notwithstanding this,
our imports of these products reached
the astonishing figure OF $38, 1000, 900,
an increase of pit per, cent over the
1913 period. Argentine meats and
Canadian milk and cream accounted
for the larger part OF these imports.
About this time the demands Of the
belligerents for Argentine meats be-
bame heavier and her trade in these
products veered toward Europe, as did
much of that from Canada. For the
ten months ended April 1916, our
imports of Argentine meats were just
so per cent of what they were during
the 1914 period, and our total imports
of meat and dairy products were $751;
100000. The principal after-war
problem which Argentine will have to
meet is how to get rid of her vast sur
plus of farm products, the production
of which, during the past two years
has been so wonderfully increased.
With Democratic free trade law on
the statute books, the United States
is the logical market for these products
and that spells disaster to the Amer
lean farmer. With republican tariff
law on the statute books, American
farm products will be protected. More
over every cent OF duty that Argentine
pays to enter these farm products in
our market will 60 into the Federal
Treasury as revenue, and that means a
lessening OF the burden of internal
taxation on the American farmer. How
do you think he will voter
Disregarding the interests of farmers
the Democrats put eggs on the free
list, with the result that millions OF
dozens Of Chinese eggs were shipped
to this country at prices the American
farmer could not meet. The Oregon
legislature tried to protect the Oregon
farmer by enacting law requiring that
bakeries, restaurants ETC., using i'm
ported eggs shall post notice declar-
ing that fact. A test case in the
courts has resulted in a decision de-
claring the law unconstitutional, and
Chinese eggs are again freely sold in
the West. According to the American
vice-counsel at Marking, China, eg S
from that country are consigned to
America at 40 cents per dozen. While
this competition does not affect the
egg producer in the East, it illustrates
the application Of the principle of
protective tariff, which kept these eggs
of cheap price and poor quality out Of
our markets.

FAIR CONTINUED
STOCKHOLDERS VOTE TO HAVE
BIGGEST FAIR IN HISTORY
Strong Feeling That the County
Should Not Be without an
Annual Exhibition--Direc-
tors to Go Ahead

At an enthusiastic gathering Of
the stockholders of the fair associa-
ton at the Chamber of Commerce
rooms Wednesday, the directors
were instructed to go ahead and
make arrangements to hold the an
nual fair this fall Nearly fifty men
and women were present and the
sentiment for a fair was very
strong.
A resolution was passed declaring
pro rata dividend amounting to
about 81 to all stockholders, with
the privilege of either taking it and
surrendering his stock for cancel
lation or leaving it in the treasury
and the secretary instructed to no
tify all stockholders. The time limit
is June IA for the privilege Of TAX
ing the dividend and it is believed
that few will take the money.
The meeting was good natured
and the booster spirit in evidence.

A GOLDEN BELT OASIS
Water Fountain at Sand Springs a
Boon to Tourists

The drinking fountain installed or
the Golden Belt road in front OF
the Sand Springs pumping station is
a credit to the city commissioners
who authorized 1t and to the Boost
er club which suggested the plan
and furnished the sign. A concrete
basin for horses and a sanitary
fountain for people are both sup
piled with hand pressure faucets so
as to obviate any undue waste of
the water. and another faucet is
conveniently located for drawing
water to fill radiators and water
bottles. A concrete floor in front of
the fountain furnishes clean place
to stop without getting into the
mud.
Transfers hauling loads between
Abilene and Solomon will find this
convenient place to rest their
teams and give them a drink OF
clean Sand Springs water, and the
tourist who tarries there in the long
hot days of August will remember
the drinking fountain as one of the
GASES along the Golden Belt trail
and will bless the kindly spirit
which placed It there.
The city might 60 further and es-
tablish a little park east of the
spring. There is a good bunch OF
timber along Sand creek and more
rees might be planted between the
Dad and railroad west OF the creek
which could be made a good picnic
round or a place for the boy scouts

wishes to get next to nature could ,
