THE SOUTH PROSPERS
UNDER PROTECTION

In an address on 'fThe South s OPP
~portunity," delivered at Savannah,
Georgia, Edward A. Brand, assistant
chief of the bureau Of foreign and do
nestle commerce, asserted that cotton
by no means constituted the bulk of the
agricultural wealth of the South. He
said the total value of the cotton crop
last year was s750,O00,000, while the
total value of all agricultural products
of the Southern states was SO, 500, 000,-
600. Manufactured products in the
South aggregated $4,000, 000, 900, or
about Is per cent of the total for the
country. Mr.. Brand declared that "the
lesson taught by the European wal was
that the South could not build its eco
nomic life on cotton alone"
Neither can the South build its eco
nomic life on free trade alone. The
South's opportunity is in sending more
protectionists to Congress, and fewer
free traders to tinker with the tariff
and put brakes on the wheels of indus
try. The majority of the Southerners
know it today, and they will doubtless
put their knowledge to a practical APP
plication before the war in Europe is
over.
So long as cotton was king, the South
had al argument, satisfactory to itself
at least, for the policy of free trade. 1t
was epitomized in Senator Haynes
speech on the floor of the Senate in
1881, in which he said:
"Now, if the cotton yarns man
ufactured at Great Falls were inn
ported from England, instead Of
being made in New Hampshire, we
should find the market for 10000
bales of our cotton instead of
three, to that instead of gaining a
market for three thousand bales,
we should have lost a market for
nine thousand bales. If trade was
free, the goods manufactured in
this country would be imported
from England and paid for in our
cotton, but in cutting off the i'm
ports (by protective duties) you,
Oh COURSE, 10 Lne same extent dlmln-
ish our exports"
OF course that argument ignored tn,
fact that the greater the encourage
4 emit of cotton manufacturing here, tn,
greater would be the market for raw
cotton nearby, while the English spin
ners would still have to draw on tn
South for raw cotton and pay for it il
cash, if not with merchandise.
Fifty years under the Republican
policy has built up the manufacture
industries in this country, particular
the textile industries. In the last 1
years immense strides have been mad
in the textile industries in the Soutl
In 1916, before Calhoun went wrong, h
said he chopped to see manufactures er
couraged by appropriate duties and ha
no idea of their being left without sue
protection"

Resumes His Old Business

Henry Kruthoff, a cook. was arrested last Saturday night by Undersheriff Harp upon suspi- cion of having intoxicating liquor in his possession. He had come Tn from the east on the midnight train and had a suitcase with him. When taken to jail the suitcase was found to contain "A pints of whiskey.
 Monday morning Kruthoff was arraigned before Justice Boyer by County Attorney Jordan. He pleaded guilty to a violation of the prohibition amendment to the state constitution. and was bound over to superior court in bonds of $500. E He was remand ed to jail, not being able to fur nish bond.
 Kruthoff served time in the county jail several months ago for a similar offence. Less than 48 hours after the new prohibit ton amendment had become law by proclamation of the governor, he started the business of boot logging again.

Famous Horse Swindle
 Case in Federal Court

Renewed interest was mani fested in the Smith Bros. horse swindle case Saturday when Deputy U. s. Marshal Weage, of Phoenix, arrived in Flagstaff and subpoeaned several Flagstaff men to appear before the federal court at Omaha. Neb. as witness es in the case.
 J. s. Smith, Smith Bros, and the U. s. Live Stock Co.,, all one and the same outfit. began opera tions around Flagstaff in 1910 by buying up several horse brands from R. Gleason, Fred Volz, w. H. Rice, c. A. Bond and others. They then proceeded to advertise extensively through the middle states and by correspondence and otherwise sold horses to ranchers in those states far in excess of the number of animals they had purchased.
 In order. as they thought. to cover up the crooked work they specified in all bills of sales that the buyer was to come to Flag  staff and gather his own stock. This many of the buyers tried to do and all found that the horses were not there or mavericks and so wild and the range so rough they could not gather them with out expense far exceeding their worth.
 Proceedings were started in the spring of 1914 against the U. s. Live Stock Co.,, and it's officers on the charge of misuse of the mails and the trial now being held is the continuation of a long legal fight. Those who left fol | Omaha Saturday were s. s Acker, J. D. Dunn, D. J. Cronin Thos. Eakin, B. c. Black anC Frank Fairchild.
 It is understood that T. B. Pol lock and Lee Doyle were sub poeaned to appear at a later date -Coconino Sun.

Proposed County Fair. for NaDaio zUnder the above caption the Snowflake Herald published last week an editorial on the proposi- ton of holding a county far in Navajo county. The News re- prints the editorial in full and will do all possible to bring such an enterprise to a successful conclusion. We only differ from the Herald in the location for the fair; we think it should be held in the county seat, but we would be willing to concede this point if found to be the will of the majority of the people who would contribute to the sue cess of the fair. The Herald article follows:
 '"The proposition of holding a fair in Navajo county has been and is still being discussed by the wideawake's of this part of the county. That it would be the greatest thing that ever happened for the agriculturist, stockman and others, cannot be denied. It would be the means of inducing and encouraging every fellow to do his "level best" in trying to produce the pest in his particular line.
 Nothing of this kind has ever Deen attempted in Arizona's northern counties, ffroutside of Yavapai, and. the. first years event probably could not be as as desired. yet if the first one proved a success, future )nes could branch out from time % time as the fair grew. 5
 Snowflake wouldsbe the ideal a|ace for the holding of such an ntertainment, being situated fore in the center of the county | han our sister towns, and is al- nost right in the heart of the ericultura1, fruit and livestock i 5elt. We have the climate,
 bod water, and an abundance
 ground suitable for pulling off ceh an entertainment. At neeting Monday night of the 1eal Farm Association the mat er was discussed and all present 1eartily favored the proposition.
 But thls. however, will not be "a Snowflake fair. It is for all Navajo county, and we simply nention Snowflake as being the proper place of holding same. if 3 central location cuts any figure 'n the matter.
 If the proposition goes Through, it has been suggested the fair be held the week before next years Northern Arizona Fair at Prescott.
 Let's all pull and boost for Navajo county's fair!"

from The acid of grapes and lemon juice,

But the average tourist leaves
without learning what delig htful

Florida is the most delightful season
of the year. for it generally furnish
es a long stretch Of weather that is
just exactly right. Such weather is

Many tourists have remained in
the spring, and have learned this,
and few have experienced with our
summer climate. In fact. many come
from nearby states to Florida beach
resorts in summer. and those who
come once generally get the habit,
for they find the Florida climate is
pleasant, not merely for few
months. but all the year around.
More and more are learning this fact
and as they are also learning the
splendid business opportunities this
state offers and the pleasant social
relations they can form Florida is
gaining rapidly in population. Tens
of thousands of newcomers are NOV
