NO RELIEF

The belated appointment of the
tariff commission carries no promise
of relief to the country which is suf-
fering from the increasing burden OF
direct taxation. OF the six men whom
President Wilson has chosen for this
board. only n can be claimed in any
sense as a believer in the doctrine of
a protective tariff; and even his name
conveys no sense of conviction 10
pro~tectionists that they have any
champion at all upon the tribunal
which is to pass upon the application
and the formulation of tariffs as they
exist and as they may be. The only
consoling reflection for the protec-
ZIONIST who scans the list of Mr.. VIII
sons tariff commission is that, hap
PLY, under the laws and the Consti-
tuition, is members will be unable to
give a fiat to any conclusion which
they may reach.
In this connection it is worth while
rejecting, also, that an executive tar
if commission is inherently doomed
to failure. 1t represents only the
prediction of the appointing power.
On the other hand, a tariff commits
sion legislative in origin and respon-
sibility. would act and speak along
the lines of congressional practice
and opinion. and its conclusions would
be attended with respect by the House
of Representatives, who would recog-
nize the board as one of its W agen-
cies for information and guidance.
In the present instance the Wilson
tariff board accurately embodies
nothing except the favor of a Presi-
dent. He has named a free-tra1e
college professor. a Democratic lame
duck" a Democratic political man
ager, two Progressives who have
twice assisted the Democratic party
to national victory, and a so-called
Republican who has sought and OBJ
tanned employment under a Demo
cratic Federal commission.
The bi-partisanship which the
President has proclaimed as a de-
sideratum in a tariff commission does
not exist; the non-partisanship which
he has also preached in this connec
ton is hardly more apparent; and
the board stands, five to one at least.
in favor Of free trade, low tariffs, or
the single tax. A more wicked ira
vesty upon a campaign pledge could
hardly be imagined.
No schedules Will be raised at the
suggestion of this board. Two of It's
members have participated in foisting
upon the people all of the iniquitous
burdens OF direct taxation which they
now bear, and the others will hardly
withstand-the opinions of these two.
The only relief which the taxpayers
of the country can secure will come
through the restoration of the Repub-
lican party TO power.

Paul F. Dehnel, who, we regret to
say, for short time selected Bemidji
as his place Of residence and who now
calls Sleepy Eye his home, has always
been regarded with suspicion by loyal
Americans because Of his close afilia-
ton with the kaiser. But it seems that
Dehnel is going from bad to worse, for
now he is associated with such men as
Rev. C. L. Lehnert, the German minis
ter who is awaiting action Of the fed

in which he declared he hoped "Presi-
dent Wilson would be shot,; Mayor A..

The Horse and Harvest.


Horses working in the heat should
be fed only limited amount of hay
in the morning and the noon feeds,
and should be given a liberal amount
of grain, preferably oats, with from 10
to 20 per cent Of bran added. They
should be watered in the morning be-
fore being fed and should be allowed
water again after feeding. At noon,
when coming from the field they should
be given limited amount of water if
they are hot, followed by feed, and
again be watered before going to the
field At night they should be given
limited amount when brought from
the field, followed by the evening feed,
and should then be given all the water
they will drink.
1t is an excellent practice, also, to
water the horses in the middle of each
half days work. A drink at this time
is as refreshing to the horse as to the
man and will be repaid by better SER
vice. Frequent breathing spells should
be given in the harvest field to avoid
overheating and injury to the wind,
which may result in. permanent I'M
soundness.
The shoulders should be washed with
cool salt water at night to prevent
shoulder gals and sore necks. The
collar should also be carefelly cleaned
when taken off.
