''TFe 4tFa Be8ree Oath of tEl0

TO meet the bluff and the falsehoods of
those Americans who have foreswon
loyal principles, and have become Inbound
subjects of a foreign power, have carefully
prepared the above-named pamphlet.
The men who take that oath are traitors
to our Government, and spies in our camp.
They are armed and drilled, as military
men, and kept in readiness to use their steel
swords and their up-to-date rifles against
their fellow citizens.
This question of Popery is the most impor-
tant question now facing the people of
America.

fine art, and to establish White Slavery SO
defantly that it laughs at our laws while
dragging down our girls.
That's what the icense-fee, charged to
foreign goods, has done for American labor:
now let us see what it has done for Capital,
taking H. G. Prick as a sample of a thousand
other thieves enriched by Internal Acts of
Congress:
Henry c. FricB has just purchased for $25O,OOO
another painting by Rembrandt, IAN Old Woman
Rejecting Over the Lecture For half century
this picture has been in the collection of jules
Porges of Paris.
The canvas is the fourth by Rembrandt now
owned by Mr.. Frick and the purchase of it brings
the amount he has spent for art works during
the past year to approximately $2,300,000 the
largest single item being the $1,12b, 900 he paid
for the Fragonard panels of the Morgan collec-
ton.

How the Alleged 8-H0nr Day
May Disapp0iEat More
Than it Pleases.

IN the Presidents staunchest organ, The
New York World, the following appears:
The passenger engineers and trainmen have
become alarmed, it was said, over the possibility
of losing substantial part of their pay after
Jan. 1, when the law will become operative. The
engineers are paid the basis of 00-miIe
and the managers intend to abolish this entirely
Jan. l. and pay on the eight-hour basis only.
1t was asserted that an engineer can now take a
train from Hoboken to Scranton, 147 miles in
three hours and ten minutes, make the same run
back, all within working day and the
present basis receive $11.35, and lay off every
second day On the new basis, it was said, the
railroad company demand that he make the
run daily and pay him only $425.
According to the above the Brotherhoods
themselves may be leenly disappointed by the
practical operation of the new so-aalled g.
hour law.
The fact that some Of the Railroad man.
ayers who at first roared against the law, now
come out in favor of it, is suspicious.
Be that as it may, the truth is that the
new law does nothing for the million-and-a-
half of railroad workers who are getting the
lowest pay.
The raise in wages goes to the men who
already draw the highest salaries.
Such is life.
The engineer and the track-hand, the con-
ductors and the depot-agent are equally
needed in the operation of railroads; and it
would seem that raise for one should carry
a raise for all.
And the raise in wages should not be sad
died upon the final consumers Of shipped
goods: but should come out of the colossal
net earnings of these public-service corpora
tions.

What the Tariff Does for CAPITAL.

Congress prohibited the sale Of foreign
made shoes in this country, unless they paid
license tax for the privilege of entering our
market.
The license-fee, having been paid, was
added to the foreign price of the shoes, and
the American who bought and wore them
paid the fee when he paid for the shoes.
In this manner, the American in buying
shoes made in Europe, paid the European
price, plus the American license-fee.
Where was the advantage in this, to the
Ame1Tcan eoho bought the shoes?
There wasn't any advantage.
On the contrary, the license-fee, qUhich the
importer had to add to the price Of the foreign
shoe, was Just that much tax on the American
who purchased it.
Why, then, did Congress make such law?
1t was done to protect the American
capitalist who was manufacturing shoes at
Lynn, Mass.
What advantage was such a law to him.?
The advantage was this:
He could add the license fee-or nearly all
of ito the price of his shoes; and when the
American customer bought the american
shoe, the license-fee was pocketed by the
American Observation-Disclosures.
If the American customer bought the Euro
pean shoe, the license fee went to the Gov
eminent at the Custom house where it was
paid before the foreign shoe could oct into
our market
Let me give YOU a simple illustration:
Suppose the Lynn manufacturer produced
In one year shoes to the value of 100000; at
a time when the license-fee on the fore gner
was as low as 25 per cent: suppose that the
importers offered for sale in our market shoes
in the same quantity: what was the advantage
to the American Capitalist?
1t was this: the importer had to pay the
Government 600 for the privilege to sell,
and thus he had to ask $4,000 for his shoes;
whereas, the American, having no such prlvl-
lege-fee to pay, could underbid the importer,
sell out at $120,OO0 and pocket clear $780,
600 which he could not have touched, If 1t
had not been for the $4,000 entrance-fee
qotjch the foreign shoes had had to pay at the
Custom house.
This simple illustration will probably
occur to you, the next time you go into store
to buy shoes, for the price went up so cents
a pair last week.
Eight dollars used to shoe an average
family: now it takes as much to half-sole an
old pair as it used to take the buy a brand
new one.
The license-fee charged to the foreign shoe
IS called the Tariff; and the excuse for it was
that in Europe the shoes were made by "pau-
per labor"
To protect American worlzmen from the
competition of the European pauper, the pau
pers product was made to pay the license
fee
How did the American capitalist manage
60 get all the benefit of the fee, which was not
paid for his benefit?
He did it by opening wide the door of I'm
migration, and importing the poupers from
Europe.
Those European paupers who remained in
Europe, laboring for European Capitalists
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1916-10-26

New England, has transformed that glorious
old Section into a stronghold of popery and
plutocracy.
The pauper labor of Europe, brought into
Colorado, West Virginia, Michigan, New
Jersey, and Pennsylvania, has driven Ameri
canism and Professionalism from their ancient
Businesses, and has beggared millions Of
American workmen
In 1892, the Homestead strikes were on,
and the Steel Corporations employed the
Pinkerton gunner ust as Rockefeller has
more recently employed thugs in New Jersey,
where they killed a woman the other day.
Andrew Carnegie was at the head of the
Homestead Companies, but he had cannily
sloped off to Europe, leaving III. c. Prick in
command.
Prick showed no pity, and the Pinkertons
handled the work people as though they were
not human beings
Men, women, and children were brutality
mistreated, dubbed, shot, beat down into sub
mission to Carnegie Prick & Co.
These Capitalists did not make shoes they
made all sorts of things out of iron and steel,
being protected by the highest kind of a
license fee, Levied on foreign products which
sought to come into our markets in compe-
tition with Carnegie, Prick & Co.
The Steel Corporations, like the shoe
manufacturers, used the Government as an
ally in money-malzing, and the bargain be-
tween the two allies was-that the Govern
ment would bar out the products of European
labor, but would let in the European labor
itself; in return for which monopoly-6oM
Of the Za6orer8 and the consumers IN the
Home Narhet-the Steel Corporations would
finance political campaigns, and keep its
rascals in office.
How has the system worked?
Just as any sane man might have known it
would Work-to the fabulous enrichment of
Specially favored Capital, and to the heart
sickening degradation of labOrers and con-
sumers.
In the New York San, of Monday, October
16, 1916, there appears on the front page, in
two columns side by side, vivid picture of
the workings Of the system.
In the End column runs the headline
"Fricl pays $25O0O0 for new Rembrandt"

the new appraisal committee of the
recently organized Harrisburg Real
Estate Board, it was reported at a
meeting of the board in the office of
Herman p. Miller, of Miller Bros. &
Co, Monday evening.
This new committee, it was eX-
planned, will act as sort of a clearing
house for knowledge of city realty
values. 1t will replace haphazard ap-
praisals by individual real estate men
and give greater stability and uniform
ity to realty values, it was said.
Already the committee has been
called upon by some of the city's larg
est property owners to appraise the
value of their property and it has
been recognized in the courts through
the hearings in the South Second
street subway damage suits. In every
case the new committee has won
praise for its efficient service.
Members of this committee include
Edward Moeslein, A. C.. Young and
George A. Shreiner, three of the city's
widelyknown real estate men.
At last evenings meeting of the
Real Estate Board new forms for
carrying on the business in a uniform
manner were adopted and further
plans for making the new board of
real service to members were dis
cussed.

President Gring's notice follows:
Notice is hereby given that on and
after July 22, 1915, that portion of
the Newport and Sherman's Valley
railroad lying between Newport and
Bloomfield Junction stations will be
abandoned"
For some time previous to the an
nouncement persons in close touch
with the management were aware that
this part of the road would be closed.
Predictions to this effect were made
last summer. The reason assigned for
the closing of this section of the road
by the management is that it does not
pay to operate the two roads. both of
which are controlled by a syndicate
OF which David Gring, of Newport, is
president.
The Newport and Shermans Valley
was constructed twenty-five years ago
and from Newport to New German
town the line covers a distance of 29.1
miles. The length OF the section be-
tween New Bloomfield Junction and
Newport, which will be abandoned, is
S.3 miles. 1t is understood that the
remaining section of the Newport and
Sherman's Valley will be made into a
standard gauge to conform with the
