the direction of the larger sum OF 40

It is obvious that il 10 men are
pushing on car-say, six in GER
tain direction and four In an exactly
opposite direction the force tending
TO move the car is not equal to the
combined forces produced by the 10
men, but 1t is equal to the force pro
cuced by the six men minus the force
produced by the four men, or 6OO--
10000 pounds. The direction OF this
resultant force corresponds to the
direction in which the six men are
pushing.
I In order that the electrical pressures
: produced by several batteries may act
lin the same direction around the cleo
trical circuit IL is necessary that the
terminal OF lower electrical pressure
of one battery be connected to the
terminal of higher pressure OF the
next battery; that is, that the negative
terminal Of one battery be connected
to the positive terminal Of the ne Il
one. The pressuro produced by the
battery catlses the electricity to pass
through the battery itself from the
terminal of lower pressure, or negative
terminal, toward the terminal OF
higher pressure, or positive terminal,
while in the part Of the electrical cir
cult outside Of the battery 1t causes
the electricity to pass from the ter
minal of higher pressure toward the
terminal of lower pressure.
The action of generator is exactly
the same as the battery, inasmuch as
the current is from the negative to the
positive terminal within the generator
and from the positive to the negative
terminal through the circuit outside
the generator. If several electrical
pressures be connected in series In
such a manner that part Of them are
acting in one direction around the
electrical circuit and the remainder
in the opposite direction, the total
pressure acting in the circuit wiz not
be equal to the sum of all the differ
ent pressure, but it will be equal to
the difference in the sums Of the pres
sures acting in the opposite direc-
tons.
The difference in the sum Of the
pressures acting in the two directions
around the circuit is called the enec-

No Protection Against Chinese Eggs

For the protection of American in
dustry, there is nothing that will take
the place of protective tariff. Con-
sequently, there is lamentation in the
Web-foot State. Ever since the pas
sage of the Underwood tariff abomi-
nation, which placed eggs on the free
list, the State of Oregon and the Pa
cific Coast in general, has been a
dumping place for Chinese eggs. The
Oregon markets have been glutted
with hen fruit laid at a time when
Confucius was
"a somewhat polite bodied boy
Who knuckled at the taw."
So severe was the competition to
which Oregon egg producers were
subjected that the State legislature
took cognizance of the situation and
passed law known as the "Chinese
egg law" providing that vendors and
users of Oriental eggs should display
sign declaring such eggs to be i'm
ported.
Recently, the State took legal action
under this law, against one ]. c. JAG
OLSON. who was convicted in the cir
cult court of violating the law by of
fering for sale cake, the ingredients
of which were partly composed of
eggs imported from China, without
displaying a sign in his salesroom
bearing the words, Imported eggs
used here" On appeal to the State
Supreme Court this decision was re-
versed on the ground that the law in
vaded the domain of legislation given
tn Cnnnracc apI viola
Article l. of the United States Consti-
tuition. Jacobson may continue to use
Chinese post-pliocene eggs in his
cakes.
The Chinese selling price of eggs
brings up an interesting question re-
lative to the anti-dumping clause
which the Democrats are holding
forth as vote-catching bait. This
clause proposes to lay a duty, gen.
orally placed at Is per cent. against
any products dumped in the United
States at prices lower than the fair
market price in the country of origin.
Of course any price at which products
may be readily disposed of in a for
eign country is fair market price, so
far as that country is concerned. Os-
car King Davis, correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune, while travelling in
China for his paper short time ago.
wrote: "The retail! price in the East
ern part of the United States, with
which | happen to be familiar, last
year, was approximately 8 cents per
egg. The retail price in the part of
China which have just visited is
eight-seventieths of cent per egg.
One egg at home is worth 261a eggs in
this province"
Nice-Consul Gilbert. of Nankins,
China, last year reported consign-
ments of eggs from China to the Pa
cifc Coast at four and six-tenths cents
a dozen, and frozen eggs at three
cents a dozen.
In addition to these remarkably
low prices for Chinese eggs, the fact

John w. Anthony, for $4,000.

remains that the price of eggs in the
United States is constantly f1uctuat-
ing. There is not an actuary or poll
tician. or tariff expert in the United
States who could prescribe dumping
duty applicable to eggs imported from
China. This is but one more example
of the fact that a dumping duty is of
absolutely no value unless it works in
conjunction with a protective tariff.
The Republican party stands for
protective tariff, and once it is. in
power the legislature of the State of
Oregon will not have to puzzle itself
in tatempts to enact laws to counter
act an evil forced on them by the
Democratic policy of free trade.
