BY FACTS

The Republican party believes that
the policy of protection is vindicated
by facts; believes that the Protective
policy benefits all classes; believes
that it benefits the farmer as well as
the laborer and manufacturer; believ-
es that it not lights the forge and
turns the spindle, but likewise moves
the plow and reaps the grain, not only
that, but it brings a buyer for it. The
Republican party believes that the
policy of Protection has brought New
York nearer to this section than Chi
eago once was. The Republican par
~ believes that even Free-Trade will
not induce the foreigner to buy what
he does not want; and that the hopes
Of the farmer for future prosperity
depends upon making the immigrant
q consumer instead Of a producer. To
this end and to the end that our ma
tural resources shall be developed, as
wall as that labor shall be rewarded

lem party long ago committed itself

Chicago, Jan. 1A.-Munitions with
which Germany went into the war and
which she believed would bring her
victory within six months, were ex-
hausted within two months, resulting
in her defeat at the Merne. in 1914,
according to s. S. Mcclure, the New
York publisher, who addressed the IL
linois Four Minute Men, today.
This mistake on the part Of the
German commanders, he said, saved
civilization and prevented German
form winning the war in September,
1914. MI. Mcclure also declared that
the French had proved themselves su-
perior in human courage and complete
masters Of the Germans in artillery
fighting.

Bismarck, N. d., Jan. 18.-The fact
that President A. C. Townley of the
Nonpartisan league, has leased the
Northwest hotel for the special ses
sion with a view to handling league
legislators there, as was done during
the regular assembly a year ago,
leads to a general impression about
the capitol that no brief session is
contemplated. Doubts as to the sim
certify Of Governor Frazier and the
Townley press in urging brevity are
commonly entertained.
The league closed, the first year of
its administration with $4,000 in
unpaid bills and with expenditures
$40 ,324. SO in excess of those for the
last year of the Hanna administra-
ton. The league administration paid
out in one form or another during
1917, $752,645.76, as compared with
$612,321.40 expended under the Han
ma administration during 1916. Elm
mating an item Of $50, 5.97, charged
to the state highway commission,
| which did not exist in 1916, the lea
gue's boost in state expenditures sim
mers down to a net $106,618.39, OF
which $67,603.1S is represented by
money paid out by the automobile reg
/ itration department from increased
receipts in the registration Of motor
vehicles, and which cannot be charged
to increased expenses.
More Money Needed.
In spite Of these largely enhanced
expenditures, which carry the state
into the new year with a deficit Of 8

as an emergency appropriation Of
$4,000, which will be asked by the
board Of control for the state hospital
for the insane, are due to causes over
which no human agency had any con-
troll.
The state board Of control began
asking more money for the are of
the insane in 1918. It asked each
succeeding session of the Legislature,
but obtained no relief until 1917.
when the allowance per capita was in
creased from SIS to $40. From 1912
to 1916 the average yearly value Of
crops raised by the institution, based
on present prices, was ~42,044.84. In
1917 the drouth cut the value Of all
crops raised at the institution to $14,-
$685. 80, and It was necessary for the
hospital to dip into it's appropriation
for $37,158.94 to make up the differ
ence. Coupled, with a crop loss Of sc
2-3 per cent, the institution faces an
increase in the cost of all supplies Of
SO 1-2 per cent, and it was allowed by
the last legislature but 20 per cent
more to meet the enhanced burdens.

Without Excuse.

Some of the heaviest increased ex-
penditures at the capitol, itself, how
ever, probably cannot be easily ex-
planned to the average taxpayer.
Money has been spent needlessly and
recklessly by some departments, it is
claimed, and lack Of efficiency and in
experience has cost the taxpayers
thousands Of dollars which might, it
lis contended, have been saved by a
display Of ordinary business sense and
reasonable ability.
Governor Frazier has said nothing
of these increased burdens which his
administration has laid upon the
farmer. He has made much adoo ov-
er the need Of the farmer for finan-
cial assistance, and to give that as
~sistance he has called a special SEES
sion, which man predict will run at
least a month and. take $4,000 or
more additional money out Of the far
mers' pocket.
