Once upon a time, man who
was too economical to take a pa
per, sent his little boy to borrow
the copy taken by his neighbor.
In his haste, the boy ran over a
four-dollar stand Of bees, and in
ten minutes looked like watery
summer squash. His cries reach
ed his father, who ran to his assis-
lance, and. failing to see a barbed
wire fence, ran into 1t, breaking
it down. cutting a handful of flesh
from his anatomy and running
fve-dollar pair of pants. The old
cow took advantage Of the gap
in the fence, got into the cornfleld
and killed herself eating green
corn. Hearing the racket, his
wife ran, upsetting four-gallon
churn full of rich cream into a
basket OF kittens, drowning the
whole flock" In her hurry she
dropped a seven-dollar set of false
teeth. The baby left alone, crawled
through the spilled milk into the
parlor and ruined a twenty dollar
carpet Curing the excitement the
oldest daughter ran away with the
hired man, the calves got out and
the dog broke up eleven setting
hens. Moral-Pay for your paper
and do it quick.

which he unblushingly said in his
message of Sept. IA. 1914, would have
resulted, but for the war, in increased
importations sufficient to yield one
hundred million dollars in revenue;
which was the same as saying that but
for the war $S00,00O,00O in imported
merchandise, the product OF foreign
labor would have supplanted an equai
amount OF domestic merchandise, the
product of American labor. -. st
Practically everything in the Ger
man empire, including labor, has been
CON mandeered and all their factories

being operated by the government.

port to this country and elsewhere,
regardless of price, as soon as the
seas are open.
That is what this country must look
forward to, unless protective tariff
law is enacted before the war closes.
That is the issue now before the
people of the United States.
The Mexican problem. the railroad
wage matter and other matters includ-
ing the administration extravagances
which produced the first two billion
dollar congress. are merely. details.
The dominating question before us
now is, shall we allow or shall we not
allow the European countries to flood
this country with their goods at the
end of the war?
Shall we let the Underwood tariff
law put our factories out of business
: and our labor out Of employment and
our railroads into the hands of the
receivers?
That's the question that now con-
fronts the people of this nation.
