PEOPLE VOTING AGAINST LEAGUE

Democratic campaign managers all

ed instructions to abandon the league OF
nations rs a campaign issue in the polti-
cal fight next year How are they gonna

Seventh Alabama District, where the
Democratic majority for a representative
to succeed Burnett was cut down from,
normal 5000 or 1000 to 400, and in the
Eighth KENTUCKY district heretofore

ected by 1900. Whether it was the inten-
ton to make the league a political issue
or not, the fact remains that it is one and
no party can escape it.

In conclusion VIII send you few
lines of verse that were composed for
the soldier boys welcome home by
w. G. Reese and read at the gather
ing Friday night:
We love you boys who left your
homes at duty's call to go
To meet upon the battle field the
fierce and cruel foe;
Whose horrid modes OF warfare on
land in air on sea
Were never know on earth before,
and ne'er again should be.
You boys went forth to meet a foe
whose purpose Maa to gain,
The mastery of all the world. but all
hit hopes were vain.
The brave Courageous, dauntless boys
who breathe Columbia's air.
Maintained their ground and soon
gave proof that they could do
and dare.
Tonight we give a welcome hand
and heart that swells with joy.
To every mothers son of you, TO
each dear soldier boy.
And as the years roll swiftly by and
register each act,
May nothing ever happen that can
from your fame detract.
May boys andgir Is with anxious ears
surround parental fires
And listen to the thrilling tales OF
brave and loving sires.
Let us all pray that war again shall
never more be known
That rulers who would plan for war
may down be quickly thrown
That loving hearts shall ne'er be
wrung with anguish from a call
For sons and husbands. brothers to
face the cannon ball.
Our JOY tonight would be complete
were ii not that we lack,
The presence of two of our boys who
never will come back,
Who gave>their lives for freedoms
cause and thereby proved their
worth.
In standing for a cause that ne'er
should perish from the earth"

SHOOTS PROTECTION BILL

DmOOl = wv GNJAIOlN DILL
After an enormous amount Of labor Sen
ator Smoot has introduced an anti
dumping bill which has been commended
even by some Of his Democratic col
leagues. 1t is tended to prevent cur
market from being flooded with goods
which will ruin struggling industries, es-
pecially the new industries. 1t will serve
the purposes of protection until such time
as a general tariff law can be devised and
passed to meet revolutionized conditions.
The work necessary to perfect the
measure may be realized when it is stated
that the bill is largely devoted to defini-
tons to fix the foreign market value and
other terms so as to determine whether
products are being dumped in this coun-
try at less than the cost of production in
the country of origin. Thus foreign
market value at the place of production"
is declared to be the average price within
a period to be determined by the Tariff
Commission at which the same merchan-
disc is sold in the country of production.
In the absence of such standard or
where the price is less than cost. the COM
mission is authorized so to declare and
the "cost Of production" is substituted in
determining values.
tAa time when prices are high the un-
thinking are apt to welcome low priced
foreign goods, but even moments
thought will show that if industries are
ruined by foreign goods sold at less than
cost the ultimate sufferer is the Ameri-
can worker and consumer.
The nature of the unfair competition at
which the Smoot anti dumping bill is
aimed is not generally understood. 1t is
that kind of unfair competition which is
banned by many of our national and state
laws. We do not permit it among our
selves if we can help it and there is no
reason why we should permit foreign
dealers to cripple our industries by meth
DDS which we consider crooked.
What dumping means can be illus
trated by German commercial coup in
South America shortly before the Europ-
can war. American sewing machines were
finding a market in the Latin Americas
and the Germans became alarmed. The.
dispatched statesmen to undersell the AM
orleans and, if necessary, to give away
the sewing machines made in Germany
The American machines were driven from
the field and then the German dealers
raised the prices of their machines to a
level that would permit them to make UP
all past losses and gain an eXorbitant
profit.
Let us take another example. Wien or
business men established the textile in
dustry many years ago the manufactur
ers of Manchester, England, tried to kill
the infant industry. They raised huge
slush fund for the purpose and SOLD cloths
at prices far below those exacted of Eng
lish buyers at home. The losses were
recouped by making the English pay fo'
the entire campaign, which, after bitter
struggle, ended in failure.
Any competing nation which tries I'M
fair tricks will find itself suddenly foiled
by the Smoot bill if it becomes a law. as
it almost certainly will. Crooked foreign
merchandising will be met by a tariff
rate which will stop it at once-The Citi-
zen.

at the Flower hospital at Toledo,
Ohio. This little mites name is
Betty, and her mother died of in
fuenza shortly after Betty was born
Betty's principal ailment is the fact
that she only weighs two pounds

tenance consists of a mixture of fif-
teen ounces of water and i've drains
of condensed milk. This amount is
fed to Betty in quantities of one
and one-half ounces every two hours
Betty has been kept alive through
the constant attention that is given
her by the nurses at the Flower hos
pital. She has never been dressed
She has never had a bath in water.
She is bathed in oil only. Her dress
consists of a wrapping of cotton, in
the shape of the cradle" that In

child notices no one, but is not
cross. Betty is kept in a sun parlor,
and the stiff battle that she has put
up so far encourages nurses in the
belief that she may pull through.

NeyiIIe's Summary
Of JuareZ Affair
Ia is through,

Mexican reVolutioniSts seeking
to overturn the CarranZa regime

This is the meaning of the re-

Mexican bandits led by Villa and
General Felipe Angeles.
The interference of American
troops, who drove Villas army
from Cuidad Juarez, sets a
precedent. 1t means two things:

Probably the answer is: The
United States wouiG have had to
execute these prisoners, or to
turn them over t. Carranza to be
executed.
1t would Lave been militarily
possible, even easy, to have
made this capture.
TIE affair does not mean that
American troops are being used
for the benefit of Carranza: This
around for political motives.
The true reason is that the
American army IS determined to
protect Americans. Border fight

This protection was determin-
ed upon by the military COM
mand, several days before the
crisis.
American orders were:

Mexican territory. He even
withdrew his entire command
from the city and remained out

He did this despite the fact
that he had twice previously

Woman With Black Bag
Dies at 70 in Arizona

The woman with the black bag"
otherwise Mrs. Anna White, known
to Washington, d. c., as one of the
most expert of lobbyists, is dead at
the age of seventy-nine years.
Announcement of her death was
made recently from Phoenix, Ariz.
She was the widow of Patrick
White, once a soldier of the Eighth
infantry, who died twenty-five years
ago. Their seven children are all
living.
When White was discharged from
the army he took up a farm just
north of what was considered the
southern line of the Fort Mellow
ell military reservation. Army sur
veys showed the White home within
the reservation and so, about 1878,
the family was elected and the
farm buildings were destroyed by
order Of Captain Adna r. Chaffee,
Sixth cavalry, later commander of
the army. Nearly twenty years
later the original survey was found
to have been correct, the Whites
thus being sustained in their con-
