Congressman George w. Fairchild Of
New York. Republican member of the
ways and means committee. Mr.. Fair
child cites the Alaskan Railroad act
and the Shipping act as outstanding
examples in support of his assertion.
The old Democratic axiom that that
government is best which governs
least" has been entirely lost sight Of,
and we have before us a program that
will discourage and cripple private
enterprise. Instead of conserving
American industry, he declares. the
Democrats are constantly forcing it
TO bear additional burdens of taxation.
while inviting further competition
from abroad by a low tariff. 1T is the
eulminatio nof a narrow and unwlse
policy" concludes Mr.. Fairchild, that
has now gone too far and which will
not be approved by the deliberate and

TAXING AMERICANS
FIRST

Imports for the month of Januar!
of this year totaled $241. 100000, al
increase over January. 1912 "a pro.
tective month, of $9S 100000. Gus
tine revenues collected during Janu-
airy, 1917. amounted TO s1S.419,000, OF
over $4,000, 900 less than for January
1912-a 60 per cent increase in inn
ports and a rs per cent loss in reye-
nues, the two months compared. The
average rate of duty on imports in
January. 1912, was II per cent. in
January, 1917. 7.6 per cent, the low
est monthly rate of duty on record.
In the discussion of the iniquitous
tariff measure passed by the recent
Congress. Senator Cummins offered
the following section as an amend
ment:
"From and after the passage of
this act there shall be levied,
collected and paid upon every article
imported into this country from any
foreign country (Which under the
present tariff law is dutiable), and
also upon every article imported into
this country from any foreign coun-
try, and which under said act is ad-
mitted free of duty. and which the
tariff board finds to be a competitive
article and is or may be produced in
this country in a substantial way, a
duty equal to the difference between
the cost of production at home and
abroad"
None of that for the Democratic
free traders. 1t was rejected imme-
diately. The Democrats categorically
refuse to take any steps looking to
protection OF American industries,
and are utterly obliyious to the value
of customs duties as a source of reYe-
nue.. The very people they refuse 10
protect are the ones who have to pay
the cost Of inefficient operation Vi

kinds Of internal taxation

AUT0CRACY DETHR0NED
AND EXALTED

The revolution in Russia has ere
ated a great variety of comment here
and among European diplomats Their
is an undertone of surprise at The
news from P%etrograd as compared
with the news which they are send
ing to their own governments from
the capital of this republic
From Russia they hear of the fall
of autocracy, of the gathering of an
thority into the hands of the people
of the abdication of rulers, of the
establishment of popular government,
of the characterization of the army
and the public service, of the union
of popular forces to carry on a war.
From Washington, on the other
hand, European diplomats have be sn
informing their governments of the
growth of autocracy in the American
republic, of the stretching out by the
executive for more power. of its grant
granting by the peoples representa-
tives, of the means employed to over
come the reluctance of Congress to
extend the Presidents prerogative, Of
the false appeals which have been
made to reinforce the search of min
isterial officers for more power, and
of the seeming inertness of the people
while all the traditional precepts of
popular rule are being assailed and
%overthrown.
The President of the United States
has long enjoyed a greater power
than that of any chief of state save
the Car. Now the Car is dethroned
and the American President exercises
a larger control over the people of his
country than any monarch anywhere
possesses over his subjects. In addi-
ton, Washington sees. coming over
from the last Congress, some meas
ures that are to be pressed in the
next Congress and which will greatly
enlarge the powers of the Presidency
and of the executive sub~ordinates
Among them are the so-called spy
bills, which would effectually stiae
even a just criticism of administrative
incapacity and which might cause all
comment on executive action to De
made in whispers, or behind closed
doors, or even not at all.
The European war has been an
iconoclast-in Europe. AS the swirl
of it's troubled waters sweep upon
our own shores we are witnessing
something even more iconoclastie
than anything that has occurred II
Europe. Abroad, rulers have been de-
throned and crowns have been abased.
Here, autocracy is being exalted and
the presidential Office is being magni-
fed. Monarchies and republics seem
to have changed places

TO RECLAIM ARID LANDS

Congressman E. E. Roberts of Nc
vada believes that a way may he
found for supplying water to the large
tracts of arid lands in this State by
means of wells. During the recent
Congress Mr.. Roberts embodied his
ideas in a bill designed to encourage
persons to undertake a search for
underground water for irrigation pur-
poses. The measure proposed to per-
NIT a citizen to explore for water On
not exceeding 1850 acres of unre-
served arid land. and if successful
within two years in finding sufficient
water to permit OF raising crops on
at least twenty acres he should be
given a patent to one-fourth Of the
original permit. Such a law, in Mr..
Roberts opinion. might easily result
in the cultivation of large tracts #
desert land, and add greatly to our
national wealth.
