NO SEPARATE PEACE

Mr.. Lansing undoubtedly speaks the
language of exact truth when he says
that we have entered into no engage
ments, written or unwritten, regard
ing a separate peace with Germany.
The fact remains, however, that we
are bound by memorable logic against
a separate peace. The war against
Germany is now our war as much as
it is anybody's. The issue means as
much to us as it does to anybody.
The cost of it in men and money, if
not in material ruin to our land, will
be as great to us as to anybody. We
are in it to fight to a finish.

on VAIN QUEST

Part of the Wilson tariff commits
sion has been ordered to Europe to
study conditions there in their rela-
ton to our tariff. They will return
home with a fine line of bunk. There
is not an industry on that ~war-craZed
continent today in which normal con-
ditions prevail. There is absolutely
nothing to be learned there on which
an argument for or against higher or
lower tariff schedules could be based.
1t has been said that the commission
will study the probable effect of the
Paris pact on American trade. But
that portion of the pact which most
deeply concerns us does not go into
operation until after the war, and is
even subject to revision before that
time. Up to that time there will be
just about as much information avail
able on this side of the Atlantic as
there is on the other. Europe asks
for American soldiers, and the first
thing we send them is an industrial

| would rather be right than presi-
dent is the principle followed by many
retail merchants.
There is no right without a parallel
duty. no liberty without the supremacy
Of the law. no high destiny without
earnest perseverance. no greatness
without self denial.
AS a dispenser of important services
in any town none compares with the
retail merchant.
Perhaps the first benefit of impor-
lance is the endless accommodations
which he extends his customers. His
books show that where misfortune,
sickness or loss of occupation over
takes his customers he is frequently
obliged to carry them for many months.
Honest Men Get Credit.
The>man who has not established q
reputation for unreliability or dishOn-
esty is reasonably sure of securing
credit for the asking. And the exten-
sion of credit is equivalent to making
loans without interest. And who would
ask or expect any such favor Of any
one but a merchant or a very close and
dear friend?
The local town to be desirable
place to live in must have police and
fire protection. it must have bridges,
improved streets, water, sewers and
good schools. To secure these neces-
sary Improvements and to maintain
them taxes must be levied. The local
merchant pays a large share of the
taxes
Among other things, the local mer-
chant is continually forced to contrib
ute to all manner Of charitable enter
prises, both public and private. He is
the local benefactOr, inasmuch as he is
the employer Of labor. Numerous
young men and women find employ
ment in his store, and as the result OF
his investment and efforts many dol
lars find their way to the pocket of the
doctor, the dentist, the editor, the
druggist and the banker, all of which

Faith In the Community.

He aids the farmer by buying FRI
him his products to the extent Of his
needs, thus increasing the profits Of
the farmer.
He has shown his faith in the COM
munity by investing his capital there,
consequently his interests center there;
upon him, in a measure, depends the
social, religious, educational and COM
mercial existence Of the town, and he
is ever willing to do his part.
All this being true why Is be not en-

goods and compare prices with those

fore you send your money away from
home to buy something Of the same
quality which he can sell just as cheap
Iy as does the big city merchant prince.
Take away from the community one
of the most important elements OF
prosperity. the medium of exchange.
and the effect Is inevita ble-a weaken
ing of the organism. And that is pre-
cisely what the great mail order re-
tail houses are doing. They are bleed
ing the local communities. They are
destroying local markets. weakening
local credits, reducing the volume Of
deposits in small local banks, starving
out local business men who are con-
sumers Of farm products as well as
dealers, driving to the large cities
thousands of consumers who can no
longer find employment in small
towns. and the men who are aiding
them in their work of destruction will
soon pay the penalty in the shrinkage
Of the value of their property. as well
as in the loss of their markets.
A Gigantic Monopoly.
That the managers Of these gigantic
enterprises understand what they are
doing is amply demonstrated by a re-
mark recently made by one Of their
number in Chicago. He said. "Give us
few more years and we will make
every city outside Of Chicago a town,
every town a village, every village a
hamlet, and every hamlet we will
wipe Off the face Of the earth"
What will the customers of the mail
order houses do then. poor things?
They will have given aid and comfort
to the enemy that has destroyed their
prosperity. They will have assisted In
building up gigantic monopoly. Sc
duced by pretty picture books, they
will have in their innocence starved
out their own best customers. De-
serted villages will then mark the
places where prosperous communities
formerly thrived. and the population
Of the country will be divided between
the farms and the large cities. The
prospect is not a pleasant one to con.
template.

URGES USE OF WHALE MEAT
Uncle Sans Bureau OF Fisheries Ex-

and Preserved Form.

For some time Uncle Sans bureau
OF fisheries I'm correspondence and in
personal interviews, has been advocat-
ing the use Of the meat Of whales, por-
poIses, dolphins, and other cett ceans
for food. There Is evidence OF great
interest now being manifested in this
matter by whale fishermen on both
coasts. and II would not be surprising
to the bureau If within a short time
the meat Of whales and smaller ceta-
ceans In both fresh and preserved
form would be In demand and extern
sively utilized.
Whales and porpoises are mammals,
like cattle and sheep, and their flesh
Is "meui" and not FISH" In texture
and appearance II resembles beef.
though the color is darker red and the
favor Is closer to that meat than any
other. II is devoid of all fishy taste.
II is likely that 1t will Soon he obtain

Whale meat was placed on the mar
ket In Seattle. Wash. and Portland,
Ore. The product met with a ready
sale at 10 cents pound and was i'm
mediately placed on the menus of no

maine.

short.sIahted Tariff Policy.

The protective tariff system, under
which the industries of the United
States were built and this market
made the richest in the world, was not
a haphazard affair. 1t took full ac-
count Of the relation between raw ma
terials and manufactured goods. When
raw material was free listed there
was corresponding attention to the
manufactured product. The rather
small free list of the protective tariff
was enormously enlarged by the I'm
derwood bill, and duties on manufac-
tured product were reduced accord
ingly. The country was able to adjust
itself TO the new condition only after
the European war began, and there
was an attendant degree Of protection.
through the war embargoes and war
intereferences with trade.
Now, In the mos. Offhand way. the
ways and means committee upsets It's
own tariff law by making an arbitrary
increase In the duties on raw ma
terials. The increase will not put the
tariff on a revenue-producing basis

10 per cent increase should be con-
sidered in its relation TO all the duties
which are not affected. There should
be similar increase of duties on man.
