EDITORIAL COMMENT

The report of industrial condi-
tions in European countries now
al war do not indicate that they
are as desperate as We have been
led to believe. The New York
Globe says, "Great Britain, with
1000, 600 men at the front and
100000 in munitions factories,
in other factories is producing
goods that promise to give her the
largest export in her history. Ger.
many is mining more coal and
iron than ever before and is tran.
sporting more freight on her rail.
roads. France promises to raise
more food than in normal years,
and her industries are most active. "
Our own expovts have of course
enormously increased on account
of the war and are double our i'm.
ports, but II is surprise to learn
that our imports are larger than
ever before. During The six
months period from January to
July, 1916, our imports amounted
to 81, ,467, ,8l9, 574.OO. With these
vast imports, had our tariff laws
remained as they were before the
Underwood tariff was enacted our
revenues would have paid all ex-
penses without resorting to any an.
noying war taxes.

That New Jersey primary law
was just another of those straws
that show the way the political
wind is blowing. II can hardly
bring much comfort to the hearts
of the Democratic administration.
Wescott, the man who twice nomi-
mated Wilson for the presidency,
and who was the favorite pet of th.
administration and had the strong
backing of the organization, was
defeated in the race for the senator
ship by an overwhelming majority.
and this in the face of the fact
that his opponent, Marine, is not
over popular in New Jersey. The
primary can be construed in but
one way, for the turning down of
Wescott indicates that the Jersey.
ties are tired of Wilson and are 90.

The Sioux City Tribune says a
prominent railroad man of that
city predicts that Mr.. Hughes
will not get the votes Of one in
one hundred railroad employees
on account OF his attitude toward
the Adamson law. This promin-
ent man is putting it pretty strong,
as only twenty per cent OF the rail-
road employees were benefited by
the Adamson law, while the eighty
per cent who We're left out will ma
.turally resent it.. If Mr.. Wilson
gains the vote of the trainmen and
loses the vote OF all the other rail.
road employees, loses the vote of the
stockholders in the railroads who
are more numerous than the train
men, and loses the votes of the
public who will have to bear the
burden of the increased cost of op-

law, he will have made a poor

Once upon time, SO the story goes,
u Frenchman visiting the tomb of Ma
poleon wrote on a convenient wall the
lines:
Ebony was great man, soldier
brave and true"
An Englishman, coming along lit
tie later, read this and added:
"But Wellington did beat him at

The next visitor was an American
who, seeing the foregoing contribu-
tions, rushed into the competition with
all of the restraint that characterizes
members Of our great nation:

EXCHANGE NOTES
From the Tripp Ledger

A prairie fire, the.origin of which
is uncertain. got started northwest
of Trip Saturday night and before
it could be stopped it had burned
sixteen stacks of hay and done con.
siderable other damage.
Grandpa John Jerke died at his
home near Tripp last Friday at an
advanced age, the cause of his
death being given as old age. Up
until the day before his death, he
was feeling first rate, and he has
been a healthy man most of his
life.
Work was commenced this week
on a cement building for the
Bridgman Russell Company, cream
and produce dealers. The baild.
ing will be twenty-five by forty feet
one story high and will be located
just north of the Klatt building on
the east side of Main street.
At an election held in Tripp
Wednesday afternoon, the Tripp
school district decided by narrow
margin of votes to consolidate.
The vote stood 2O2 for consolida.
ton and tifty-four against consoli.
dation. The district will now be
an independent district, and there
can be no objections 10 having a
full high school course.
L. E. McKern, who had been
working for the South Dakota Light
4 Power Company since they pur.
chased the light plant in Trip,
was found near Kaylor, wandering
around and acting queerly. He
was taken into custody and brought
to Trip, whers he was taken care
of by Marshal Joseph Daub. Mon.
day he was examined by Dr..
Sprecher and found to he of un-
sound mind. His relatives were
notified at Shenandoah, Iowa, and
they requested the authorities to
give him the attentions of physi.
clan and to place him in a hospital.
Tuesday afternoon the authorities
took him to Olivet where be was
placed in the county Jail. 1t is
believed the arrangement of bis
mind is only temporary and that
under proper treatment he will
soon recover.
