ion in making this world safe for
Democrats nowadays is to select men
for posts of great responsibility whose
chief if not their only qualification is
that they have been friendly to and
will assuredly be subservient to the
appointing power. In picking his own
men for the jobs at his disposal, May
or Hylan is following the best Of ex-
amples within his own party. The
only difference is that when Mayor
Hylan picks personal favorite for a
good job, the New York World calls
him spokesman; whereas when Wood
row Wilson does the same thing and
is criticised for it, the New York
World raises the cry of treason. &
Col. House is quoted as having said
during the campaign Of 1912, 1--WE will

let Theodore Roosevelt elect u.s." We
do not recur to this piece of ancient
history now brought to light through
Col. Houses serial biography for any
purpose other than to ask just who
the Colonel had in mind when he said
"us"; and whether he has remained in
the habit of saying 1--WE" and Gus" as
he has continued to speak of the adj
ministration. We wonder if, when the
Colonel went abroad-either on one
of those mysterious trips as the Pres
ident's extra-constitutional and extra
ordinary personal representative" or
when he went to the Versailles council
he used 1--WE" and Gus" as he dis
cussed with his colleagues the aims
and purposes of the United States.
And above all we wonder if he carries
this habit of speech with him when
he goes to the White House to talk
with the President.
"The method of stimulating manu-
features by laying protective duties
was not unknown, but England could
not permit the colonies to discriminate
against home merchants, and had no
desire to see them establish by pro-
tective duties competitors for English
manufactures. Nevertheless, Pennsyl-
vania did in few cases lay low pro-
tective duties. Except for the sea-
faring pursuits of the Northern col
onies, the whole continental group was
in the same dependent condition. The
colonists raised their own food and
made their own clothes; the surplus
of their crops was sent abroad and
converted into manufactured goods"
DIR. Albert Bushnell Harris "Forma-
ton of the Union 175O-1829." Com
pairing the conditions of that day with
those of today when the United States
has developed, under protection, into
the foremost of manufacturing ma
tons, would you still favor a "remov-
al of all economic barriers?

The merchants in many Michigan
cities are giving thrift stamps IL
change People generally are willing
to accept them as it is way of saving
bit and 1t is as patriotic as buying
liberty bonds-it's helping to finance
the war.
Michigan Is called upon TO do another
duty-to eat Michigan grown potatoes
until after July 4th. The surplus now
in the hands of the farmers can be
utilized in this manner. Buy home
grown potatoes instead of southern
grown new potatoes.

American Economists Pointers OF

Industrial contentment depends up
on adequate Tariff Protection.
The economic battles of peace will
be as fierce as those of war.
President Wilson thinks economic
serfdom" is synonymous with Tariff
Protection, whereas Tariff Protection
Greats economic liberty and Free
Trade really establishes economic
serfdom."
Free-Trade, low wages. Low wages,
low ways of living. Low ways of liv-
ing, low moral standards. Protective
Tariff, high wages. High wages, high
standard of living. High standards of
living, higher individual and national
character. Which do we want in
America?
Some of the Free-Trade Democrats
are disposed to find fault with their
party for placing a Tariff on Indigoes.
Why not? Since Free-Trade's princi-
pal enterprise has ever been to pro-
mote the blues, why should it not
Protect them?
Loss of Tariff Protection inaugu-
rates economic serfdom"
twill not need draft law to create
anyarmy to fight for Protection and
against Free-Trade at the coming
election if the electorate realizes both
the benefits of Protection and TIE in
juries of Free-Trade.
Why build up nations industries
and then torpedo them with Free
Trade?
Just to facilitate the agitation of
Secretary Redfeld's handsome hirsu-
test in the spring breezes, I'VE would
respectfully remind him that our
Hongkonk collie-labor imports leapt
from $9,758,0OO in 1916 to $685.
900 last year. Of course Mr.. Redfield
will want to keep this information be-
fore, the American workingmen when
he starts campaigning this fall for
their votes for continuation of Free
Trade. Of court NOT.

Claude Kitchin, Democratic floor
leader of the House, says: "The in
dustry of the United States will be in
less need of high Protective Tariff
after the war than ever before" Most
people who think as well as talk about
the Tariff believe that exactly the
contrary statement is true. But they
are ready to agree that the people of
the United States will be in less need
of Democratic majority in Congress
after the war than ever before.

THE "NON-PARTISANSHIP"
CAMOUFLAGE
(From American Economist. J

(From American Economist.)
The administration is working the
on-partisanship" camoufage game
overtime, and the number of its dupes
surprises everybody. The people are
so straightforwardly patriotic and
loyal that they cannot believe the adj
rninistration would take advantage of
war conditions to advance Democratic
interests in general and Free-Trade
interests in particular, especially when
the administration so vociferously
shouts for "non-partisanship" the
while it is playing the partisan game
to the limit.
Although instances multiply, the
people ignore or overlook them. They
see advantage taken of the short
sighted and greatly manufactured ode
nand" for Tariff Commission in the
appointment of-not the non-partisan
board invariably recommended, but a
commission four-fifths fetishly Free
Trade and one-fifth perfunctorily Pro-
tectionist; they see railroads ground
down by executive persecution on the
one hand and legislative confiscation
on the other, while the railroads are
under private control, and then they
see everything that was illegal under
private railway management made le-
gal under Federal management, the
Sherman antitrust act scrapped
where previously ruthlessly enforced,
rates raised where previously lowered
or a raise refused, and now they see
an attempt--that will succeed-to
tranfer authority from the non-parti-
san interstate commerce commission

BUSINESS MEN TO
APPEAL TO GERMAN
FL N A NCIAL KINGS

Washington, Jan. IA. - American
money kings propose to make an ap-
peal direct to Germany's business men
to scrap militarism and thereby avoid
an economic war after the war.
Without threatening, the Chamber
Of Commerce of the United States to-
day has under way vote on a resolu-
ton which would call to the attention
Of Teuton commercial interests the
dangers arising from excessive arma-
ment and seek to avoid a post war
trade conflict
FEAR LOSS OF MARKETS.
The proposal Is part Of campaign
begun by President Wilson to COM
pei Germany's liberals to abandon the
big war machine. Many Of Germany's
big commercial men, particularly
shipping interests like Herr Balm, of
the Hamburg American are understood
to be increasingly opposed to the war
for fear of loss of world markets.
To reach such groups. the chamber
proposes its appeal.

STORM BREWING IN
PACIFIC NORTHWEST

Chicago, Jan. 14-Slowly recovering
from the Generalization caused by the
worst blizzard in decade, the mid
dlew.est today was threatened by an
other storm which centered over east
ern Texas. And following on its heels,
according to the weather bureau Is
still another storm which was brewing
today over the Pacific northwest.
The Texas storm is so extensive that
its effects already were felt as far
east and north as southern Illinois.
This storm, it was said, apparently will
not be serious as the one just passed.
Its exact course has not yet been de-
termined, but its center probably will
turn northward along the western
slope of the Appalachians, with its in
fluence extending westward to the
great lake region and eastward to the
Atlantic.
Railroad traffic in the middlewest
was being restored today more slowly
than anticipated. Officials expressed
confidence, however, that normal
conditions would prevail before night
