Dr.. Hanson Of First Baptist Church,

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. July 10.-Quoting from
one Of Roosevelt's campaign speeches
in 1912 and using the same scriptural
reference Dr. Hanson at the First Bap-
fist church Sunday evening declared
I'VE stand at Armageddon and we
battle for the Lord"
Iowa stands at .Armageddon. he
said, and we will require adj our pat
riotism to meet the situation. The is
sue is clear. The debate is on. Those
who favor a liberal, or open regime are
on one side and favor Mr.. Harding
On the other side are advocates Of a
dry Iowa. those who desire to conserve
moral gains, and they favor Mr. Mere
dith. There can be no confusing OF
the issue and all who put righteous
ness and principle above policy and
partisanship should stand together
solidly and unequivocally"

The period Of depression which over
whelmed the American shoe manufac-
turing industry after the enactment
Of the Democratic tariff law, has
passed. The annual report Of the pre-
sident Of the United States Shoe
Machinery Company shows that there
has, been a revival in the last twelve
months, because Conditions abroad
which have kept European shoe fac
tories fully occupied with pressing
military and civil orders have kept
foreign manufacturers from taking
advantage Of the opportunities afford
ed by the removal of the tariff to in
wade the American market" And yet
the Democrats are succeeding in their
efforts to make credulous people be-
lieve that the war was not the cause
Of revival Of American industry.

Congressman Albert Johnson, of
Washington, created quite sensation
in the House a few days ago by
asserting that he had seen an order
issued by the Secretary Of War call
ing for the discharge from certain
crews Of all persons not native-born
citizens of the United States. This
order, said Johnson, had already re-
suited in the dismissal of five men
who are natives of Scandinavian
countries but for many years natu-
rallied citizens of the United States.
Mr.. Johnson asserted that the loyal
ty Of these men cannot be questioned
and he deprecated such an order at a
time when this country is not at war
with any nation and on friendly terms
with the nations of which these men
were formerly citizens.

WHO PAYS FOR YOUR BREAD

Petitions are being circulated for a
constitutional amendment providing
for a four year term of Office for both
branches of the Arizona legislature.
1t is new stint, and, probably it
will win if placed on the ballot. The
people should try everything-the
same as they do for rheumatism and
bad colds; this is new state and we
should have new laws and new ideas
every year. We have a constitution
which provides for all the new things
any one can think of-there is no use
settling down to merely thinking out
what will be to the best interest Of
the people. Get high sounding title
to some proposed law and run it over
on the people. Our initiative system
was invented for the purpose of get
ting the people, by the people, in
fooling the people" The system that
has proven most successful through
out the United States has been that

the whole force at one time and hire

Arizona, we the people, seem prone to
fool that whatever we can make in
business we have right to spend in
politics. OF course, we don't exactly
know who 1--WE are or just who gets
the money, but it is our duty to pay

Congressman Sloan, of Nebraska,
never loses an opportunity to remind
the Democrats of the manner in
which they legislated to the injury of
the farmers. Speaking a few days
ago on the shipping bill he cited
figures to show that after the enact
ment Of the Underwood tariff law we
imported 30,0O0,00O bushels of corn
and 400,000,00O pounds of beef, most
of it from Argentina, where land
values are only half those in the Unit
ed States, and labor costs only half
as much. He asserted that freight
rates from Argentine to the United
States are less than half the rate
from Nebraska to the Atlantic sea-
bord. Government-own ships, he
feared, would further injure Ameri-
can farmers by carrying other Argen-
tine products to our markets at low
rates.

more than for the same period ended
February 1915, which was also under
the Democratic Tariff law. The re-
cords show steady monthly increase
in Japanese goods coming into our
market, beginning with 100000 in
July, 1915, and rising to $13,000,000
in February last.
But our exports to Japan do not re-
cord a normal increase, in spite of
the fact that the European source of
supply is considerably hampered, and
the United States is the logical source
from which to make up the deficiency.
Exports for the eight months ended
February 1916, totaled $4,000, 900,
practically what they were during
the eight months ended February,
1913, under the Republican law. Dur
ing the 1914 period ending February,
there was terrific slump in our ex-
port trade with Japan, the total be-
ing $27,O00,00O, and five months of
the eight being under the Democratic
Tariff law.
Another matter worthy of serious
consideration is that Japan is deliver
ing her merchandise in her own bot
toms. The figures for February are
not available, but those for the seven
months ended January, 1915, show
that Janapese vessels delivered to
our ports S35 100000 worth of goods.
Japan sent to us 100000 worth.
The seamen's law was operative for
but three months of that period. That
law put American vessels on the Pa
cifc Coast ont Of business and Japan
controls the Pacific Ocean today.
During the seven months period end
ed January, 1916, Japan brought to
us in her own vessels merchandise to
the value of seventy-eigh million
dollars. Her total exports to US for
that period amounted to $75,000,000
so it would appear that Japan is using
her trans-oceanic delivery wagons to
carry every dollars worth of her
goods to our ports, and something
over, thanks to the seaman's law.
If there was ever a combination
calculated to put the United States
off the CONNIE 'cial map, it is the I'm.
derwood Tariff law, and the seaman's
law.-Rocheste IN. VI Tines Tines

Nothing in the immediate future
warrants the roseate predictions of
Secretary McAdoo that he will be able
to dispose with some Of the many
forms of taxation now in service. I'm
less the war trade is continued, with
its initiation of prices, business of the
country will likely return to the stage
to which it had been reduced by the
Underwood tariff, when the war in
tervened and established an unstable
prosperity. However, the present
state of the treasury is such as to en-
courage Mr. McAdoo in the belief
that he will be able to fool the people
into forgetting that year ago the
deficit in the treasury was Sill ,000,-
900, and that on the 30th of April last
it still remained at s28,000,000.
