club said last night that the good peo-
pie Of Wheeling had pledged The 90
autos 10 convey the tots TO and from

that will SPOIL the day Of enjoyment is
the weather. The forecast for this
section today is fair.
The automobiles will assemble
pomntly at $50 o'clock this morning
in tho vicinity Of the Elks' club, Fif-
tcenth and Eoff streets. They will
be- directed TO the various institutions
10 pick up the orphans. and then re-

cave SO great Il n impetus 10 the manu-
fac,urc oil mul litions and other COM
modities needed by the bcllieerents.
The manufat curing industries thus

creased with al normal rapidily at the

Furthermore, the increases and de

WAR HAS REVIVED 1T

One of the many destructive cfIccts
o. the Underwood tariff law was the
driving out of business OF manufac-
turers Of ferro.maneanese But the
stimulus of the war is about 10 revive
the manufacture of that product, a
PENNSYLVANIA furnace now preparing
70 resume operations after being idle
since 1915. The Democrats smothered
the ferro-manganese furnaces Of this
country in 1912 when they put the
product on the free list. 1t had been
given Il protective duty Of $50 per
ton under the Republican law. and it
Was T. brand new industry, very small
at that time. and quite unlikely to
dominate the trade Of the world. The
protective duty was very small, but
enough 10 INCUR the animosity Of the
free trade party.
The $3.50 duty was opposed by GER
tain users Of ferro-manganese, but it
aided materially in developing the in
dustry. as the figures OF production up
&c 1913 prove. But after the Demo-
Gratis had summarized American trade
tho production of this commodity
showed marked falling off, compar-
ing 1914 with 1913. Then the war
came and prices went sky-rocketing,
and purchasers OF ferro-manganese
who had discouraged its manufacture
here. found themselves up against the
stiffest sort OF prices for the product.
The same thing happened in this coun-
try with regard 10 dyestuffs, chemi-
Gals, potash, etc. Wherever we have
failed to develop an industry because
we could buy more cheaply abroad. we
have suffered far more than we other
wise would have done. even assuming
that the tariff is added 10 the price of
the goods.

vantage O. by the radical Prohiolt'on'
lists 10 force the government INTO 4
position OF joining with the zeatots IN

the legal way through the SUBMISSION
and adoption OF a constitutional
amendment. but shall such manutac-
turers be restrained in the use OF food
s,ufrs which should be applied 10
