AMERICAN sPENpTARiFTs.

Aluson Is often made 10 the fact that the American people are the greatest spendthrifts' in the world, and to the further fact that the nun Der of depositors in savings banks Is relatively lower n the United States than elsewhere But, notwithstanding this tact, the aceumualtIon of capital the aggre gate ot the real savings Is greater iu the United States than elsewhere.
 The simple truth Is that the large. from some standpoints the extrava- people are the mainstays of American industry. The American people com sume more than those of all of the counties of Europe. By so consum- ing they furnish the greater share of the employment to men engaged in productive industries. Save under abnormal conditions, such as pre-, 4H at present on account of the war the amount of American products which go abroad Is small fraction of tue whole, ms ignifieant as compared with that which Is consumed al home.
 The man who spends largely and the man who saves largely are both necas- sary in our economic growth. The easy spenders make the market for our large production. The savers ac- cumulate the new capital necessary tor additional eXapnsion of old in- dustries and for the creation of new ones.
 The cultivation of the thrift habit IS an individual matter as Is the habit of good living and easy spending It does not appear by the records that our national habit of living on a far higher scale of expenditures than the people of other countries IS bearing Us toward national bankruptcy, but rather to the contrary. There Is a sufficiently large remnant of the thrift ty to accumulate the new capital need ed to finance us in our upward growth. If all were as thrifty as are the few, half our factories would 'aNo to Jose their doors or look out side of the United States for a market.

PEOPLE TO RENDER VERDICT
Condemnation OF Democratic Party at
the Polls May Be Looked for
With Confidence.

In the matter of domestic policies,
history, now inscrutable, may discover
some reason in the administrations
effort to turn the Philippines adrift
amid the war-churned currents of the
world II may find some support for
the Democratic contention that the
Republican party in its domestic posi-
tons is unprOgressive. But con.em-
porary opinion will point to the So
called war taxes, the onerous income
tax, the depleted treasury, the blow to
American industries and the failing
off before the war created abnormal
conditions Of the nations exports end
the high cost of living unreduced and
still soaring. And contemporary opin-
ion will be registered at the polls and
this will be decisive.
Thus the contest now Is that of the
contemporary judgment as opposed to
an appeal TO the unknOwable verdict
of history. AS Americans do not elect
presidents according to auguries
drawn from the flight Of birds and the
like, but according to their estimation
OF the needs of the nation and the
men to fiji those needs, the Republic
ans may look for success-even omit
ting from view the normal superiority
of their party ut the polls.

Sentiment That Appeals.

II have no apologies for Republican
cxtravagancies," said Mr.. Hughes. II
am just as quick to condemn that
which is wrong in my own party rs
am anywhere else. don't stand for
what / don't believe to be right, simply
because 1t is under the banner Of a
particular party.
~ stand for a businesslike admins
tration Of the United States. Not
for politics, not to reward friends, not
to build up personal machine, not
to put myself In any particular posi-
tion of favor, but to honestly admin
lister the affairs~of the United States.
II desire to see throughout the ad-
ministration of the government" he
said, "the tonic Of fine ambition to
conserve. We do not want to main
tain political almshouse; we do not
want to maintain n place of refuge.
Almshouses are all right; asylums are
all right. They need public support,
but not support by putting incompe-
tency in places Of public trust"

Protective Tariff Needed.

The return OF world peace and the
normal annual food Of million for
'eign immigrants to our shores--at
present suspended to iii the ranks of
Europe's belllgerent armies-added to
increased importations Of foreign-made
goods to our only open neutral market,
now somewhat restricted by war en-
bhrgoes and prohibitive ocean freights,
should impress the American people
with the urgent need of industrial pre-
paredness by the enactment of re-
vised protective tariff, sufficiently high
to maintain our present American
standard of wages and insure to do
nestle industry the right and the OPP
Dortunlty to manufacture our own
wants and provide our own workmen
profitable employment, and thus guard
against recurrence of the hardship
and distress of unemployment which
darlicned the Industrial record of the
United States in 1914.

owe MUCH Il. WAR.
Democrats Should Be Grateful
for European 0utburst.
6y Making the Country Dependent
Upon Its Own Industries. Fail
ure of Tariff Revision Was
Largely Covered Up.

II Democrats have any memory
they must recall with regret the cam
palgn promises TO reduce the cost OF
living that did so much to elect VII
son. II may be they have memory
but surely they have no conscience
for they see with no disturbance OF
equilibrium prices of necessities aero
planning out Of sight. They accept with
.complaisancc the favorite excuse that
ihe war Is the cause OF high prices
.und perhaps they may be excused, for
Democracy owes much to Europe's out
burst of temper.
We were assured that revision OF
che tariff downward would reduce the
cost of living. but. fortunately for the
amateur thinkers In economics. the war
came along and made US dependent
upon our own Industries for supplies
of all kinds. Had there been no war
our Industries would have been at the
mercy of the cheap competition of Eu-
ropean products, and while prices
might have gone down. so, correspond
inGly, would opportunity OF employ
mcnt.
Fortunately America seems to have
been born under lucky star The
war STAYED off calamity for US and the
people now cognzant of their lucky es-
cape from Democratic laundering do
not propose that the country shall be
administered under the changed condi-
lions that peace will bring by the
hand that has showed Itself palsied In
times of crisis. The Republican party
has always been the party of efficiency,
and this will be the party to pilot
America steadily through the troubled
waters of international adjustment
after the war.
Meanwhile, as a dying bequest to the
country, Democracy might let us know
if all outrageously high prices are due
10 the war. Or does 1t feel so CRATE
FIJI to war that anything done In Its
name Is above reproach. ~

HAVE WASTED PUBLIC FUNDS
Bound to Be One Of the
Great Issues.

Commenting on Mr.. Hughes New
was comprehensive and well-consld.
cred utterancc. and he added: But
after all, the real issues of the cam
paign have not yet appeared. When
the extravaganza of this admlnistra-
ton Is known 10 the voters II will be
of tremendous interest to them There
is, Of course. no doubt that the extrnv-
ngance OF the Wilson administration
will be one of the important issues of
the campaign. While the record speaks
for itself. II Is evident that the Idaho
senator believes the voters have much
funds since the Democrats came into
power. There is promise OF enllght-
enment In what he said the other day
and when he discusses this issue his
speeches will command attention In all
parts of the country.
There were reasons why this admin
istration should have made u special
effort TO protect the treasury from the
raids Of the pork hunters. One was
that the Democratic platform charged
the Republicans with waste and prom
Used economy In appropriations. The
majority in congress paid no attention
TO this pledge, though warned by some
of its own members that the party in
control invited defeat when 1t es-
tablished new record Of extrava-
gance.
Mr.. Borah will find plenty Of ma
terial when he prepares his speeches
on the issue which appeals to him as
one Of the most important In the cam
paign. Not even Mr.. Wilson, with all
his skill as a debater, will be able to
defend the record made under his ad-
at n time when the i'm
portance Of saving money needed for
defense was apparent. - Rochester

A. the Record Stands.

Previous to 1912 American indus
tries and the nation prospered under
Republican rule and the tariff. The
Democrats stepped In, under President
Wilson, revised the tariff downward
and substituted for It the income tax
and corporation tax. When the war
was well under way the crippled COM
merce between this country and Eu-
rope necessItnted another tax. and to-
ctiay we are paying war tax In .
country that ~ at peace with the
world.

means to keep the National Guard on
the Mexican border until after the No
vcmber elections. II Is palmer every
day that the purpose Is largely pollti-

This situation demands timely pro-
vision for the casting and counting Of
tue votes of Ohlo's citizen soldiers. II
( Will be impossible without legislation
altering the registration laws and the
statutes governing the franchise In
other respects. If nothing should be
done thousands of citizens of this state
would probably be deprived Of their
votes next fall because they were pa

service Of the nation and risk any fate

emily impending.
