Military Hue For
1917 Harley-Davidson

Military fashions have extended
beyond the range of feminine attire,
for now, we are told the effect will
reach motorcycle decorations. Per-
haps the big part the motorcycle is
playing in present military circles
is responsible to a large degree for
the innovation, but at any rate Heagy
Bros, Harley Davidson dealers have
announced a new color for the 1917
machines The new color is called a
military hue" being much of the fa-
miliar Olive Drab. the color worn by
our own boys down along the Rio
Grande. There is little room for
doubt as to the practicability of the
new color and the attractiveness of
the new machines certainly cannot be
lessened by the new dress.

SIMMONS DISCREDITED.

In opening for the defensive on tae

mons, chairman of the Senate Finance
Committee, called to his aid SOME
Treasury figures designed to dlspro'e
the charges of Democratic eXtraSa'

McAdoo's own statements, however.
discredits the Simmons defense.
Some time ago, before the prepared
ness bills were framed and before the
second invasion Of Mexico, Mr.. McAdoo
went before the Ways and Means
committee and stated that, allowing

But there has been no eXplanatiol

1t is a patiently politically inspired

where the high offense of purchase
and sale was shouted from the floor
OF the House of Delegates by the few
incorruptihle members OF its own

THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE.

The more the destructive record tic
Underwood bill made is looked into,
before its depressing operations were
checked by the protection extended
by the outbreak OF the European war.
the more imperative is the demand
for a return 70 the Republican policy
Of adequate tariff protection. The
country does not have to be told Of
the evil effects Of the second Demo
cratic experiment in free trade. 1t
knows from the experience OF those
languishing days up TO September 1914,
when temporary protective tariff
wall was raised which excluded the
cheap labor competition from our
home markets. But the country lulled
to security BY war restored activity
in our domestic affairs does need
to be warned against the collapse OF
the false prosperity. whose erapora-
ton only awaits the cessation Of
hostilities abroad. It is no specuia-
tive danger.
AL the countries now under arms
are prepared for the assault on Am
erican Industrial supremacy so soon
