"AMERICA OPEN TO THE WORLD

1.-THE whole world is open to Am
erica" said President Wilson in his
Omaha address. "America is open to
the whole world" would be more
accurate statement.
The United States has opened it's
markets to the whole world, while
the whole world is closing it's mar
kets to America. The great free
trade stronghold, England, is adopt
ing protective duties against Amer
lean products. France, Germany,
Italy, Turkey, Russia, Japan and
other powers have strong protective
systems to guard their domestic mar
kets.
Where is the glorious opportunity
of which President Wilson spoke?
OF what avail is the establishment
of American banks abroad if Amer
lean goods are excluded by discrim-
inatory tariffs?
The United States cannot obtain
trade favors without granting equal
favors. And it cannot grant favors
to any nation if goods are already
permitted to come in duty free.
France has a. double tariff-a
maximum which all nations must
meet, and a minimum which is con-
coded to nations which make similar
concessions. These concessions are
arranged through commercial treat
les.
This was the system established
under the Mckinley and Payne-Ald-
rich tariff laws. Under that system
the United States made Roadway in
the world commerce while protect
ing the American market for home
industry and home labor.
The Underwood law, passed under
President Wilson, abolished the sys-
TEN, and placed two-thirds of all i'm
ports on the free list. The result

DEMOCRATIC SANDBAGGING.

The exposure OF the Democratic
National committees scheme to sand
bag the $4,000 postmasters of the
country into Contributing" 10 per
cent of their annual salaries to the
Wilson campaign fund has proved the
sensation of the campaign.
This attempt was made by reason
of a circular addressed to county
chairmen by B. Donna Ridgeway,
member of the finance committee of
the Democratic National committee,
from Postmaster General Burleson's
state-Texas.
To give further punch" to his
demand, Mr.. Ridgeway stated in his
circular that he wrote lat the in
stance" of National Committeeman
Poindexter, who had just conferred
with the national committee in New
York, meaning Chairman Mccormick,
with whom Mr.. Poindexter had just
been in conference. The county
chairmen were warned that it was
against the law to write to postmas-
ters or demand such a contribution
in the postoffice, but were instructed
to waylay them elsewhere, to de-
mand the 10-per cent assessment and
to tell them that IF President Will
son is reelected there will be a per-
manent organization of our force
throughout the country and a note
will be made of the loyalty of those
appointees who contributed, as we'll
as the disloyalty of those who re-
fused to contribute.'
It is not without significance that
the postoftice appropriation bill just
\ nSnfS inn Nf
$31, 100000, "for compensation oil
postmasters."
When the Republicans first pro-
cured and made public copy of the
circular, in which local chairmen are
instructed to "act intelligently" so
as to run afoul of the law, Chairman
Mccormick gave out statement say
ing: "These charges are the most
arrant nonsense and are absolutely
untrue. They are in line with the
campaign of Misrepresentation that
the Republicans have been making
from the start" Mr.. Mccormick
then learned that the Republican Ma
tional committee was furnishing fac
SMILES of Ridgeway's circular to the
daily press. He Immediately aban-
doned his denial, admitted that the
circular had been issued, but con-
tended that it's distribution had been
stopped.
From numerous points, however,
including the state of Washington,
| comes word from postmasters that
the assessments are being made.
Postmaster Childs of Spokane, among
others, admits that he has paid 5
per cent of his salary into Mr.. Will
sons campaign fund.

SUBMARINE SENSATION.

The East is all agog over the ex-
plot of a certain German submarine
which is reported to have sunk six
steamers. It is said that in each in
stance warning was given and pas
sengers and crews permitted to take
to the boats before their ships were
sunk, and so far as known, all were
subsequently rescued by revenue cut
tiers and other vessels. Vision OF
what might amount to a blockade OF
American ports by transcontinenta]
submarines are giving the horrors
to all who are in any way connected
with the export trade and as the
present prosperity is entirely de-
pendent on such trade practically ev-
eryone may be said to be so con.
nected.

DENTAL PREPAREDNESS.
What is the most important attri

What is the most important attri-
butte of soldier?
Good feet? No.
Good eyesight? No.
Good brains? No.
What then? Good teeth.
A soldier may have good feet, good
eyesight and good brains but if he
has bad teeth, he can't eat. If he
can't eat he can't march near
enough to the enemy to see him and
use his brains to fight him.
How does a soldier get good teeth ?
By having good teeth in childhood
How do children keep good teeth ?
Through being taught by their
mothers how to keep their teeth
clean and having their teeth looked
after while they are growing This
makes good teeth for future soldiers.
It would seem then as though the
first patriotic duty of mother was
to keep her children's teeth in good
condition. It is.
