of the situation to group Of Re-

Boycotting Germay

The Allies have entered into an
agreement whereby it will be
unlawful for their citizens to
trade with either of the Central
Powers or, except under restriction,
with neutrals trading with them.
In our opinion after the war ceases
people will buy where they can get
the most for their money regardless
of national hatred and we hardly
believe toat after having endured
wars sacrifices the people will be
in mood to be dictated to further.

Monday evening, Of this week.
On Wednesday, June 2Sth they
were quietly married at the home
of the brides parents Mr.. and Mrs.

and intimate friends Of the family

They left shortly afterwards on
an eastern honey moon trip; trav-

boarded steamer for a trip up
Lake Michigan, through the locks

On their return trip, they spent

difficult position of surgical nurse;

three years ago when she came to
MObridge to accept the superin

mlssioners while acting as board
of equalization, raised the value OF
the building material to $3 600.
They claimed HE reason for do
ing so was because Brown made
an affidavit, during the building
controversy, in which he stated
the material was worth So 900.
Brown denied the statements flat
footed. The county commissioners
decided the issue by assessing the
material at invoice.
On the second item, the assessor
assessed Browns credits at $500
the city commissioners raised it to

The Foreign
Farmers First

| During the ten months of the
fiscal year 1918, under the Repub-
llcan protective tariff there was
imported into this country meat
and dairy products to the value of
$12 900 600. The bulk of this
was foreign cheeses. Seven OF
the ten months ended April. 1911,
We're under the Democrat tariff for
less-than revenue law, with most of
these products on the free list, and
for this ten months period foreign
competitors sent meat and dairy
products into the American market
to the value of $2S, 900, 900, the
bulk of them being meats. Nine
of the ten months ended April,
1915, were under European war
conditions. Notwithstanding this,
our imports of these products
reached the astonishing figure of
$3S oA0 600 an Increase Of 217
per cent owe the 1913 period
Argentine meats and Canadian milk
and cream accounted fol the larger
part OF these imports. About this
time the demands of belligerents
foi Argentine meats became heav-
ier, and here trade in these pro
ducts veered toward Europe, as
did much of that from Canada.
For the ten months ended April.
1916, our imports of Argentine
meats We're just 30 per cent of
what they were during the 1914
period, and our total imports of
meats and dairy products were
81 900, 900. The principle after
war problem which Argentina
will have to meet is how to get rid
of her vast surplus of farm pro-
ducts, the production of which,
during the past two years has been
so wonderfully increased. While
Democrat free trade law on the
statute books, the United Stats is
the logical market for these pro
duets and that spells disaster to
the American farmer. With a Re-
publican tariff law on statute hooks
American farm products will be
protected. Moreover, every cent
of duty that Argentina pays to en-
ter these farm products in our
market will 90 into the Federal
Treasury as revenue, and that
means lessening of the budren of
international taxation on the
Am erican farmer. How do you
think he will voter
