In the West Virginia backfeld there

Mr.. Sutherland feels extremely opti
mistic over the situation in West Vir
ginia as regards the prospects of the
Republican party in the November
election. Nor is his optimism without
justification, particularly as regards
his own chances OF winning election
as United States Senator. The Nation,

Senatorial election. So far authori'

is only one conclusion to be drawn
from primary results in general. in the
period since the national conventions.
That Is, that the Republicans are sub
stantially reunited and determined
while the Democrats are not.
One Of the best indications that they
are not, and that. too. in the Presi

Senator MARITIME. Six years ago as
governor, Wilson, forced the party to
accept MARITIME, even II 1t didn't like
the idea. But Mr.. Wilson, as Presi

In spite of the fact that he gave his
support to Judge Wescott as against
Senator MARITIME. the State Democ

indicate Its independence of presiden,

the fact that the division in the Dem.

Congressman Sutherland had a con.
ference today with officials OF the De.
partment of the Navy and members
of the Naval Board, who are to pass
on the eligibility Of sites for the SILL
100000 munition factory. This, in
fact, was one of the main reasons for
Mr.. Sutherland's trip at this time, in
order to talk with officials personally,
supplementing what he had previously
done to secure the location OF the plant
in West Virginia. The competition
for the location of the plant is very
keen. and officials are giving out lit.
tie or no Information concerning the
matter. However, Mr.. Sutherland
was practically given the assurance
that at least two Of the sites In West
Virginia were being considered in the
eligible class and it was practically
certain that they would receive a Wis.
1t OF inspection from the board Of en-.
Gineers and others, with whom rests
the final decision. Congressman Suth.
erland will return to Washington on
the 9Th of October for a conference
with Secretary Daniels on the sub
ject. when the latter returns from his
present speaking tour, and will re-
main for the final hearings Of the diff
ferent cities which will be held be-
fore the Board on October 10th. At
that 1t Is expected that final argu-
ments will be made by all cities who
are endeavoring to secure the location
of the plant, also any additional data
not submitted at the time of the city's
first hearing may be filed to receive
proper consideration. The fight to Sc
cure the location of the plant In West
Virginia either in Huntington or
Moundsville, or any city in fact in the
Ohio valley, Is a very important thing
and should receive the undivided sup
port Of every business man Of the

1T SHOULD BE OBVIOUS

From the st. Louis Globe.Democrat.
Every step that advances the wages
Of American workingmen or excludes
hitherto available labor from indus.
tries; whether taken by act Of Con.
gress or of state legislatures or by
successful action Of labor unions,
makes the necessity for a Protective
Tariff more apparent. The American
Standard of living is admittedly the
highest In the world. American la.
!. borers get more pay than any others
In the world. Practically every pro.
duct Of whose cost labor Is the prin.
cipal element can be produced more
cheaply In most other countries than
In America. The exceptions are due
to advantages nature has given this
country, as in the case of immense
mineral deposits. Superior machinery
has also given an advantage to GER
tain other American products, such
rs shoes and agricultural implements.
But the general statement Is true.
The anti.Protection officials OF army
and of the navy have admitted 1t,
when called upon to explain the high.
or cost of our army and navy. They
admit that the cost OF labor and ma.
terial Is greater here than abroad. Our
government cannot compete with for.
eign governments In such matters,
yet the Free.Trade contingent insists
that private individuals can and must
meet foreign competition. They are
urged by the President to sharpen
their wits" and Secretary Redtield
tells them they must improve their
"suffciency"
The abnormal industrial activity in
this country. promoted and Protected
by the great war, has been attended
BY sweeping increases Of wages. De
mands for still greater increases and
for the shortening Of the standard
work day are made. The President
has gone so far as to declare that the
wages Of 100000 Of the highest paid
laborer in the country should be au
tomatically increased at least rs per
cent. Congress has yielded to public
sentiment in barring the products of
child labor from interstate commerce.
The cost Of these changes must ulti.
( mately be borne by American pro.
ducts. Tie theory that the higher
wages and shorter hours the balanced
by greater efficiency and activity finds
no support in experience. The con.
stantly rising prices are not arbitrary.
They are made necessary by the in.
creasing cost Of production. What
will happen when the products of the
world again begin to pour into Am.
erica, after the abnormal demand for
our products ceases? The necessity
Tor an adequate Protective Tariff for
such an emergency should be obvious
TO even the political kindergarten
class.
