Cheer Up!

It has been a gloomy eight years.
Almost from the day Wilson took
Office things throughout the country
began to go wrong. Business fell off,
extravaganza in the conduct of the
government made necessary increase
in taxes; and excessive and oppressive
income tax was enacted and after
ward extended with all the iniquities
of an excess profits supplement; a
Free-Trade Tariff menaced our in
dustries until, in the very mex of time
the war prevented further competi-
ton from abroad and gave our manu-
factories more orders than they could
turn out; Mexico, in all its hideous-
ness, had to be swallowed so it
went.
For eight years we could have suf-
fered while an arrogant autocrat, as
self-satisfied as self-assured, pomp-
ously strutted the national stage.
Realization that all this is over
that we shall have no more of it,
comes slowly. It is so good and there
is such relief IN the thought, that it
takes time fully to grasp the fact that
we are done for all time with Wilson
ism in every form.

have also had word to say on the
same subject and these are primarily
textile states, so there can be no mis-
understanding as to their disapproval
of the Wilson near Free-Trade Tariff.
The men chosen from these states
are plainly pledged to Tariff Protec-
ton and if we are not granted the
Protection that viii equalize wages
and maintain the American standard
of living, then serious pledges will be
repudiated, thing not likely to hap
pen.
The alarming increase in imports
of yarns and cloth during the year
had no effect on the Free-Traders and
they are buried SO deep that it win
take generation to dig them up.
Now it remains for the successful
party of Protertion to include among
its first duties a Tariff that affords
revenue and equalizes wages, and the
country has this promsie and beyond
doubt it will be fulfilled.
With industry near standstiH here
it is surely governments duty to
safeguard its own. Heretofore many
of US believe that our government
has been operated for our foreign
competitors rather than for the peo-
pie of the United States, and the
landslide Tuesday gives US courage to
believe an mediate change is planned
and Tariff revision upward will be
enacted in the early session of the
new Congress.
There is no excuse for delay and
long hearing before the change is
made. In line with prompt relief and
increased revenue to lessen some of
our tax burdens, a Tariff can be made
high enough to cover the ground and
then, as time passes and changes
seem desirable, rates may be read

Hard Times Ahead

Although the Republican candi-
dates have been elected by an over
Whelming majority, both in the exec
utlve and legislative branches of the
national government, yet it must be
borne IN mind that they will not as
sumo the reins of government until
the 4th of March, 1921. Until that
time the present administration will
manage the affairs of government.
The present Free-Trade Tariff will
VIII admit foreign products in unfair
competition with domestic products
Tor several months after the 4th of
March, because it will require those
months to formulate and pass a Pro-
tective Tariff Act. During this period
we shall have wholesale bankruptcy
and the sheriff's red flag in MANY
parts Of the country. Solvent indus
tries will hang on by the eyelds as in
the winter of 1896 and 1897.
Not only will foreign products con-
tinue to come in under the Under
wood Tariff, but every effort will be
made to increase importations to the
highest possible figure. The people
OF other nations know that the voters
of this country have delivered a man
date in favor Of Tariff Protection and
they will seek to rush their goods into
the United States in advance of the
prospective Protective legislation.
American importers, too, will seek to
buy all the foreign products prac-
ticable under the Free-Trade Tariff.
Our readers will remember what hap
pened when it became known that the
Tariff Act of 1909 would advance
the duties on wines. Foreign cham
payne was rushed into the country

New Tariff Law Certain

In all probability one of the first
measures that will engross the atten-
ton of Congress When the Republican
party comes into power on March 18th
will be the creation of new Tariff
law. The history of the country
shows that the prosperity of the coun-
try depends upon Protective Tariff,
so that the difference in the cost of
production between this country and
foreign countries shall not work in
facturers.
Not only is the standard of living
higher in this country than in any
other country in the world, but the
price of farm lands is higher and
labor is likewise much higher. II
costs the American farmer more to
raise his crops and his stock than 1t
does the farmers of other countries
By reaon of the higher wages paid in
this country, it costs manufacturers
more to produce their articles than il
does manufacturers in countries
where lower wage scales prevail.
AS the world comes back to normal
conditions and foreign countries
again become able to resume trade
relations, the farmers and laborers
of this country are going to require
Protective Tariff that will equal the
difference in the cost Of production al
home and abroad. Protection is one
of the cardinal principles of the Re
publican party and it is therefore
certain that one of the first measure:
that will engage the attention of the
new Congress will be a revision OF
the present Tariff laws.-Luverne

"The Republicans of the country

which they will later suffer if they
look upon the result of the recent
election as a party victory" declares

in a statement issued through the
President of the organization, Hon.
Jonathan Bourne, Jr. at is a party
victory only in the sense that Repub-
licans will be restored to control of
both the legislative and executive
branches of the Government, but an
analysis Of public sentiment as mani
tested in political discussion leads to
the conviction that the course pur-
sued by the voters in the marking of
their ballots was determined by their
dissatisfaction with the democratic
party and its administration of the
affairs of the Government, rather
than by implicit confidence in the Re
publican organization. More than
ever before in its history the Repub-
ican party is now on trial before the
country.

had not yet been paid. This great
increase in importations of duty
paid and bonded champagne was
wholly due to the prospective in
crease in Tariff rates.
During the fiscal year ending June
30, 1920, we imported, chiefly from
Argentina, 1929, 249 bushels of corn
free from duty. By this time the
people of that country know that the
people of the United States have
voted in a Protectionist President
and Protectionist Senate and House
of Representatives. They will know
that the cry of the farmers Of this
country for Protection for agricuIt-
ural products will be needed by the
new Administration and that the
Congress will proceed to enact a Tar
if which will give Protection to corn
and wheat The result will be that
Argentina will hasten to ship all the
corn that is possible into this country
this coming winter and spring. L
must be remembered that the people
of Argentina will gather their corn
months in davance of husking time in
this country, Argentina being in the
Southern hemisphere. Hence their
corn crop can be delivered in this
country considerably in advance of
the enactment of the new Tariff. It
follows that the Tariff Protection
which will be afforded can give no re-
lief to our farmers until 1922. This
is not true of all commodities, but it
is true of agricultural products which
come from the Southern hemisphere
in competing quantities.
Hence Americans may look for
hard times, business failures, want
and suffering. They are the natural
result of Free-Trade and the people
must make the best they can Of a bad
situation. They must remember that
the majority of the people voted for
the present administration four years
ago, and that they are now beginning
to experience the. result. The chick
ems are coming home to roost. How
ever, it will soon be over, thanks to
the good sense of the American peo-
pie when fully advised of the truth.
