Protection by Lawsuit

Secretary McAdoo of the treasury department is behind the scheme to protect by lawsuit the American market from flood of foreign made goods after Europe gets through with its suicidal MT. McAdoo is behind of the inefficient left schemes proposed by the democratic party
 In this the ground Of these lawsuits is to be unfair competition" by foreign producers in market. That is say. the mischief e allowed to be done before anything be done prevent it and the thing then be done is collect evidence by raft of government lawyers get a final court decision after all the appeals in and have been decided, and then wait for the final decree of the court to be enforced
 AS method of protecting American producers from the dangers feared this is ridicu- 1ous scheme could be devised It is like letting ones house burn down before he takes the needed precautions prevent it from being burned It is simply providing for all the underseling the market that Europe may wish for until proof can be collected and the courts decide that this underselling is hurting somebody in this country.
 The honest well-tried, direct, inexpensive and efficient method of tariff protection the only proper means to be used in such If Europe does not try to flood our markets with goods made cost Of ours tariff protection will do harm nobody but if Europe does try that of thing and the continuous depletion of it's financial sources makes 1t reasonable to suppose that this will be the first step taken by Europe make good it's losses-tarn protection will meet the movement when it begins and regulate 1t that there will be no flood of foreign stuff sold price our markets
 Adequate tariff duties will protect American capital and American labor without hiring host of government lawyers and government agents that this democratic scheme requires. Tariff protection works automatically; it undue amount of foreign competition ports of entry and holds that competition back letting set all our industrial organizations awash and thus 1t really protects us without running us first

president. It is also possibility that the prohi vice president. Anyhow, will figure largely in the convention. Another story is that our own Eugene M. Chafin, twice the prohibition candidate for president intends work for the nomination of Henry Ford for MT. Chain says that MT. Fords views the liquor question satisfactory to the prohbitionists It is doubtful though whether MT. Ford would accept although Mr. Chain is said to be that the distinguished peace advocate and builder of popular automobiles win do
 The discussion of MT. Ford raises a question as to the position the prohibtonsts will take regarding preparedness If the Ford boom should develop and make their platform conform to MT. Ford's views the subjects of and preparation for war, and it may be that the prohbitonists will give the country pacifst candidate for the presidency. If they do and select MT. Ford for leader there will be two nounced pacfsts running for president-Mr. Ford and Allan L. Benson, the nominee of the socialist party. Also, the platform will be framed to of the two great parties.
 As a party, the prohibitionists have made little headway in the past few The issue responsible for the creation of the party has been handled in other way The Anti-Saloon League practically speaking, has accomplished far than the pro- hibon party has accomplished, but the prohibition iss may justly contend that their teaching has had much do with the opposition that has rapidly de veloped to the licensing of the liquor traffic

The Prohibition Convention

There are indications of a lively fight for the pro- hibition nomination for president the national prohibition convention which will assemble St Paul. Minnesota tomorrow. Prohibition conventions in the past have excited great deal of interest in outside the party but this year the prohibitioniss believe that there conditions will the party many favored national prohibition but have hitherto despaired of securing it through the agency a third party. They believe that large element of the pacifist vote may be diverted to the prohibition candidate neither the republican nor democratic party has dared bid for that vote though the democratic administration appears be making overtures.

The Improvement of Eastlake Park

The city commission proposes the improvement of Easake park by the installation of features which properly belong 10 public park and this morning II Will probably take action on plans for such inn provement. The added features will consist of a swimming pool bath house. a dancing pavilion etc It is understood the lease will cover all pay conces- sions since the conduct of them would involve super vision and expenditures which the commission believes It could not well undertake at this time. These leases are to be let after advertisement for bids
 The concessions will only those features Admission to the park enjoyment all it's comforts Of shade picnic tables benches and other conyeniences Will remain as now free. It is expected that such improvements as are to be made will larger crowds to this playground the only one owned by the city which has so far been prepared public use
 Whatever the expenditure may be for the proposed improvements, and it has been estimated at s8 900 1t is argued will be to the city from the proceeds of leases.

ARIZONA WILL GET FEDERAL AID FUR
 MILITARY ROADS
Especial to The Republican,

WASHINGTON, D. C.. July 16- Strategic highways can now be con- struoted pursuant to the provisions of the s5,000, 900 federal aid roads bill which has just been signed by Pres ident Wilson The first of these highways necessary for military pur- poses would naturally he the road which parallels the boundary be- tween the United States and Mexico, and traverses the states of 1vxas, New Mexico. Arizona and California.
 The cost of construction of these jointly built highways is to be borne 90 per cent by the federal govern ment and 90 per cent by the states: the federal monies being divided pro- portionate to area. populat ton. and post road mileage. The largest amount allotted to any state is to Texas, by reason of it's large area. The other three mentioned states also | have a very large allowance. Therefore it would be possible to secure out of the appropriations for this year and 1917 over a million and half of federal monies, which. to-
 
 l state would make over three million l dollars available for construction oi the Mexican frontier highway" com ments Chairman George c. Diehl ot l A. A. A. good roads board.
 1 While it is not possible to give ar exact estimate of the cost of con. l struction per mile yet it is altogethel likely that the first two appropria- | tons by the national governmen would be sufficient to entirely com plete this highway, which would b, useful not only from military an, commercial standpoints, but woul' | attract road travellers from all ove the country, particularly those drivin, to or from points in southern Cali fornia
 Tt is interesting to note that tn next most important highways iron a military viewpoint are those aloni the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards Long stretches of these roads hay
