Tha Rod OF Our Salvation.

During the II months ended May,
1916, France sold Us SIG, 900, 600 worth
of her goods more than for a similar
period of 1915. That was a pretty
good stunt for Monsieur considering the
fact that he carried gun IN each hand
and a sword in his teeth all that time.
But then, he had the aid of the Under
wood near Free-Trade Tariff law to
get into the American market o.
course, our exports TO France recOrded
an enormous increase during the two
periods Normally IN the neighborhood
of $3.50, 900, 900, they were 1926, 900, 90
for the 1915 period, $685., 000,0 900 for the
1916 period.
But the things we sent France were
largely munitions. of war, trade OF
transient character. As the war nearS
its close such trade declines; while the
things France sent to Us were articles
used in our daily round of life, liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness.
With the cessation of the war the
French food of exports viii be upon US,
if we have a Democratic near Free
Trade Tariff law on the statue books
at that time. We love the French, but
charity begins ar home. We are will
ing to let France sell to US to the extent
that it will not injure our own indus
tries and laboring men. We cannot
force down our wage scale to the
French level, therefore France must
be required to pay the difference in the
way of Protective duties before enter
ing our market.
France holds that attitude toward
her competitors, and she has entered
into a trade alliance with Great Britain
to strengthen further her commercial
position.
Commercially the United States to-
day stands in splendid isolation.
With nothing between US and low
wage Europe but the Underwood law
how long can we remain erect after
the war? The rod of our salvation is the
Republican Protective policy.

ANTI-DUMPING HUnBUGs.
It is Free. Trade Device to Throw
Dust in the Eyes of the People.
San Francisco Chronicle.


The Democrats at ST. Louis did not
venture to insert an anti-dumping plank
in their platform because they recog-
nized that it would convict them of the
grossest inconsistency. The Free
Traders in that party have for more
than a century preached the doctrine
that the nation would derive great
benefit by making things as cheap as
possible for consumers, and whenever
they had the opportunity they shaped
legislation to that end. Their Tariffs
for revenue only were avowedly framed
for that purpose, and when they were
reproached with antagonIzing the
creation of an American manufactur-
ing industry they retorted $50 much the
worse for the American Worklngman If
he cannot compete with the foreigner.
If necessary, columns could be filled
with quotations from Democrats to the
effect that legislation designed to Pro-
tect American workingmen against
the competition of cheap foreign labor
constituted an exhibition OF national
cowardice. President Wilson in his
writings took that attitude, and the
Congressional Record is filed with the
utterances of Democratic statesmen
breathing contempt for what they
were pleased to designate paternalism
and economic laundering, by which
terms they were accustomed to char
acterize the effort to build up a domes-
tic manufacturing industry.
Now that the policy antagonized by
them has proved successful they com
pleteIy reverse themselves and advocate
exclusion of foreign manufactures, the
pretense being that there Is reason to
apprehend an attempt to flood our mar
kets with cheaply manufactured articles
with the view of sitting American in
dustries. There is absolutely no ground
for such a fear, and, if there were,
prohibitory legislation of the kind pro-
posed would not meet the emergency.
It would simply complicate our relations
with foreign nations, whereas an
adequate Protective Tariff would ac-
complish all that is desired.
The history of the Democratic party
IN this country proves that there IS no
Sincerity IN the proposal to exclude
foreign goods. The purpose of the
proponents of what is called anti-dump-
ing legislation is to hamper the efforts
IF American manufacturers to create q
great export business. 1t is merely an
attack on ''big business" in another
form. It is laying the groundwork for
d sort of regulation which would prove
fatal TO the extension of American eX-
port trade. Those who advocate it are
preaching the doctrine that our fac
tories should be compelled to accurately
gauge the demands of the local market
or be penalized by preventing them ex-
porting any SURPRISES which may be
created either by accident or Gesign.
The adoption of such a system would
prove destructive to American industry
and would bring about conditions in
tinitely worse than any ever before
witnessed in this country. merican

The Hays Public Schools.

high school enrolled ninety-seven.
Others who are coming in the first of

rollment past the 100 mark. Tie grad

1t has been necessary to divide num-
Der of the classes into two sections in

crowded condition of the class rooms.

markable. Four years ago the total
enrolment was fifty-three. This year

NO DANGER FROM JAPAN.
But David 1. Walsh Wouldn't Halt
Preparedness on That Account.


Preparedness on That Account.
From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Out of FIVE months leisurely tour
through the Orient, David l. Walsh, ex-
governor of Massachusetts,, gained
the main impressions that Japan will
never seek war with the United States,
that the absolute lack of American
shipping in Oriental waters is matter
of national regret, and that the Philip
pines and the conduct of the United
States toward them should make every
American proud to belong to his coun-
try.
via Vancouver, B. c., from a trip which
he took for rest and recreation and
upon which ne started shortly after his
term as governor expired, January l,
1916. He was on his way home to Gin
ton, Mass.
While Mr.. Walsh would not discuss
any political subjects, for the reason
that he was five months out of touch
with the existing situation, he was
especially enthusiastic over Japan, and
prolonged his visit there to make q
closer study OF the country.
Japan impressed me greatly, he
said. 1.-The intensive industrial de
velopment of the people everywhere II
Japan is a thing to wonder at The
country has come ahead by leaps and
bounds The war in Europe has
brought increased prosperity to its in
dustries, and a visit to the city OF
Osaka would remind one of the in
dustrial activity of the most Industrious
of the cities of America. They are now
supplying their own country and the
Orient generally with the goods former
" furnished by England and Germany,
and are profting accordingly
Gas far as war with Japan IS con-
cerned, there viii be no war. There
is no real feeling of antagonism toward
America on the part OF the japanese,
but despite that do not think that we
should fail IN Preparedness for any
eventuality that might come from any
nation. Japan cannot afford TO make
war on the United Staaes, as more than
half of her exports go direct to the
United States and trouble with this
country would mean the paralyZing Of
her entire industrial life.
But there Is another side to q visit
to the Orient IF there IS anything
that America needs II the Orient It IS

Whisky Is getting knocked right and
left IN one way or another the whole
world over, these days, and even in
those localities where 1t has been look
ed upon for centuries as pretty much
of q staple article. An announcement
was recently made in Edinburgh, Scot
land, to the effect that by an arrange
ment between the British government
and the whisky-distilling industry In re-
gard to the coming seasons output of
the Scotch and Irish distilleries, the
Scotch distillers viii be restricted to an
output of 20 per cent on the last five
years average production of malt whis-
ky. The arrangement in Ireland IS
practically a 80 per cent reduction on
last years output And this arrange
ment does not include the large grain
distilleries in either country, which are
at present working almost exclusively
on spirits for war purposes 1t Is
understood that the main object of this
restriction is the saving of shipping
tonnage, TO be Utilized for the importa-
ton of food products and other nece5Sl-
ties. Normally a large quantity Of
foreign barley is used for the diStilla-
ton Of these spirits IN Scotland and Ire
land. And the Scotch and the Irish are
sure to be the gamers through this
shunting aside of their favorite tipples
to give food products the right of way,
Just as saloonieSS Kansas has made for
a better food or table supply for all Of
its inhabitants, and especially for those
whose means may be on the opposite
side to Easy street.-State Journal.
