TARIFF 4 BIG ISSUE

Because but little has been said of the tariff question during the campaign it is thought by some that it is not an issue. But it is, in fact, one of the big issues of the present campaign It has been Democratic free trade legislation that has re-
 suited in burdening the people with numerous forms of federal taxation as means of raising revenue for the payment of operating expenses of the government. It is estimated, with reasonable accuracy, that dur ing the past seven years Republi- can tariff law would have yielded three billion dollars of federal in come from foreign imports, which sum would have been paid by for eign traders who marketed their goods on American markets, if such a law had been in operation. In the absence of such a tariff law the American people have been taxed, unnecessarily, for that amount. Through proper tariff legislation our federal taxes can be reduced And if the country is favored with a Re means federal taxes will be reduced.

HOW THEY DEFER

There would be unanimous indorse- ment of the Wilson League of Nations if there was unanimous belief that it meant the ending of war Millions will probably vote for the league in the belief that they are contributing towards permanent world peace, while other millions will vote against it. and with the same identical pur- pose and motive Thus we see that while all the people are desirous of putting an end to all war, about one half of them will, unknowingly, be do ing all in their power to create con- dition which may have us constantly and chemically at war.

 "The members of the league

 The president has many times eX' plained that we are safe, notwith' standing this express obligation, be- cause no army can be created or troops sent abroad except by order of congress.
