tative audience Of men and women on
behalf Of equal suffrage in the court

iation, presided. A short Introductory
speech was made by DR.. King, pastor
of the First Methodist Episcopal
church. in his usual brilliant and eff
fective manner in which he introduced
the speaker and also made strong
the Underwood law.
Il hope the lessons OF the past will
not be lost upon the American peo-
pie. hope that, realizing the dan
gers confronting American industries
they will elect to the House and Sen
ate enough members pledged to en-
actment of a protective tariff to in.
sure the passage Of such a law. II
they will heed the lessons of the past
they will elect as president Governor
Hughes, who is pledged to enactment
of protective tariff.
Even Great Britain, always con-
sidered free trade country, Is be-
ginning to seek legislation to prevent
dumping Of the goods of other ma
tions into its ports at the close Of the
war.
with our high scale OF wages, our
better working conditions, how much
greater is our need for protection.
Let us prepare our country against
the flood of manufactured goods from
Europe that is bound to come under
the existing Underwood tariff law.
"A protective tariff framed by a
Republican Congress pledged to the
principles of protection and signed
by Republican president will alone
avert a financial catastrophe when
the European war Is over"

Homely Hogs Will Bring Llxuries.

A writer in Farm and Fireside thinks
hogs are the best investment for any
farmer. He says:
If person has lot of good land
and plenty of capital, making money
in any line of the farming business is
simplifed. Making a good living, put
ting away some money for a rainy day,
paying for a farm, new machinery,
household convenienees, a barn, a silo, or
possibly an automobile-these are the
things that profoundly interest most of
us. Hogs will produce the money to do
these things"
