What will be the condition of Ameri-

This question is asked by repre-.

House Military Affairs Committee, in
q statement given out today by the
National Republican Committee"
AFTER the Napoleonic Wars, it was
not long before producers of Europe
were dumping their surplus produc-
tons into our markets. American
woolens mills, iron mills, cotton mills,
paper mills, were compelled to close
down because they could not, under
q low tariff. meet European competi-
ton. Factories of the United States
languished and the country was in a
state of panic.
1.-THE same situation existed after
the Crimean War.
"Our past history should teach US
what Ito, do today.sssDo we want q a
repetition OF what we went through
after the Napoleonic Wars and the

Near the close of the recent cam

much faster than wages paid to labor
have advanced, but the burden upon

The cost of living did not figure much
in the campaign, Notwithstanding it
was much more serious problem to
the people Of the country than it was
in 1912, when it was one of the most
effective subjects of democratic cam
paign Sneakers. Or all their multitude
of broken promises, the democratic
leaders seemed to suffer least from
their failure to keep the promise to
reduce the cost of living. They sue
ceeded in making many people believe
that they were entitled to credit for
the prosperity which the war brought,
but escaped censure for the increase
in prices to the consumer. The fact
is that the cost of living advanced un.
der the democratic tariff law, even be-
fore the war began, while wages and
employment grew less. The democrats
denied responsibility for either. Then,
when the warirevived industry in many
lines, they pointed. to the dinner pals
that Wilson had filed" but charged
the high cost of living against the war
and, in most cases. they got away

A cREDlTAeLE CAMPAIGN

The republican party and its lead.
ers have good reason to be proud OF
the character of the campaign that
was conducted prior to the recent cleo
ton. 1t was a campaign conducted in
accordance with the highest political
standards. 1t was a campaign OF
which no member of the party has
any reason to be ashamed.
While there was considerable dis
cussion of the personal characteristics
of Woodrow Wilson, this = was made
necessary by the fact that his person
atty has figured very materially in the
shaping Of national policies. He has
been recognized by the other nations
of the earth as the representative OF
public opinion in the United States
His vacillating characteristics, his
declaration that we are a nation too
proud to fight" his general willing
ness to surrender rather than persist,
became necessary issues in the con-
test, because it was up to the Amerl.
can people to determine whether they
desire these new features continued
in the expression of our national char
acter. Discussion of the extravaganza,
the broken pledges and the lack of
efficiency of the present administra-
ton related more or less to the per-
sonality of President Wilson, but
could scarcely be included in the cate
CORY of personal issues. ~
The more important subjects for dis
cussion by republicans were the fun
damental issue of the tariff, the ten
dency toward government ownership
and the willingness of congress as
well as the president to surrender to
the coercive demands off small body
of citizens who demanded that con-
gress should by legislative enactment
require a quasi public corporation to
increase their wages.
This was an educational campaign
in much the same sense as the cam
paign of 1896 when Mckinley ran
against Bryan. Bryan had not served
the nation in the presidency. He had.
therefore, no official record which call
ed for discussion. Nothing then was
known OF the character Of stamp his
personality would place upon the ma
ton. Aside from this difference. the
recent campaign has been OF highly
educational character, as was the
of 1896. a' 4

SOCIAL UNREST
IS REAL CAUSE
OF ALL PROGRESS

ST. LOUIS. Mo-. Dec. 8.-Charles
Stelzle, secretary Of the federal coun.
ell OF churches in America, at mass
meeting held here today in connection
with the quadriennial convention of
the council. declared 1t is thought busi-
ness OF the church to develop social
unrest because without social un.
rest there can be no real progress"
"One need not 60 far back into the
history of the church to find dupli-
Gated practically everything that we
deplore in organized labor, even to the
boycotting and the smuggling" said the
speaker. Every great reform move
ment must pass through it's period Of
history. This applies to the labor
movement just as it has applied to the
church.
NO doubt we are justified in de.
nouncing the labor union for what
ever lavlessness may be practiced by
1t, but We must give the labor move
ment credit for the good things that
1t accomplishes. We must also give
the boss square deal He is not re-
sponsible for present economic condi-
lions any more than the working man
