The democratic publicity bureau
says the tariff is not being talked this
year. The wish is father to the
thought. As a matter of fact, half
the democratic rank and file is in
favor of protective tariff. All re-
publicans are in favor Of it. Thous-
ands of democrats, who are not talk
ing much of their intentions, will
vote the republican ticket because
they believe in America FIRST" rather
than the free trade policy which
places the foreign producer first. II
there is little talk of the tariff, it is
because people have made up their
minds that a protective tariff is abb
soiutely essential to the "Made- in.
America" movement.

The declaration in favor of child
labor legislation in the democratic
national platform, placed the admin
istration in a rather embarrassing
position, in view of the fact that a
democratic Congress had been hold
ing up this legislation for months.
Opposition to the bill was led by
southern congressman, in the inter-
est, it is alleged, of cotton-m min own
ers. The Inconsistency of the plat
form declaration and congressional
performance sent President Wilson
to the capitol to insist upon the
passage of the bill. He had his way.
The House accepted the Senate
amendments Friday, and the bill now
goes to President Wilson for his
signature.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST %, 1915.

The free trade democrats in Con-
gress suffered a severe shock a few
days ago when they read the trade
report from Great Britain for the
month of July. This shows that i'm
ports into Great Britain increased
only $4,000, 900, while exports in
creased $50, 200, 900. Democratic
leaders have been arguing all the
time that we have no need to fear a
trade war after the military conflict
in Europe has ceased, but reports
such as this will very quickly cause
the rank and file of the democratic
party to lose confidence in these as
surances.

Progressives in Maine.

Maine progressives have pretty
generally merged with the republican
party. While surrendering none Of
their progressive ideals, they have re-
turned to the party which most nearly
represents the fundamental. principles
OF the progressive party. Here and
there are found former progressives,
actuated by pique rather than prin-
ciple, who have gone over to the
democrats. The democratic press is
welcoming these stragglers into the
ranks with ssscare'' headlines-mak-
ing big noise to create the illusion
OF numbers, and to keep up their own
courage.
Many progressives Of national
prominence will be heard from re-
publican platforms in Maine during
the campaign. At the hesd Of the
list is Col. Roosevelt, who has been
the dominating figure Of the pro-
gressive movement.
Other progressives to speak for
Hughes in Maine are Hon. Arthur L.
Garford, former progressive candi-
date for United States senator in
Ohio; Hon. Raymond Robins, OF
Chicago, chairman Of the recent pro-
gressive national convention; Hon.
Henry J. Allen, Of Kansas, who
stumped that state for the progress
sive ticket in 1912; hon. Edward @.
Tener, Of Anderson, Ind, who was
progressive state chairman in 1914,
land Hon. Oswald Ryan Of Indiana,
who stumped the New England states
four years ago for the progressives.
