Governor Harding is away and will

not expected to be back until after

Those In touch with the situation
say that Governor Harding at pres

sible appointees the candidates who
were voted on at the state judicial
convention. A number OF others have
been brought out and their candi-
dacies are being pushed.

The demand for AGRICULTURAL tools

dustries are still invaluable contrib
utors to American Independence.
American wage scales are still the
highest known, and American stand
ards of living for workingmen still
the most comfortable known.
All this should, and will be con-
sidered when tariff revision is entered
upon. Public sentiment will oppose
a change in any principle bearing
upon American primacy and prosper
ity in the world Of production and
consumption. Where we are first, we
must remain first; where second. an
effort must be made to gain first. Al
ways and in all things the slogan,
America first.
Senator Harding is an Ohio re-
publican who has been reared in the
atmosphere of protection. Ohio was
the home of William Mckinley, the
most successful of the champions of
protection in his day. He was elect
ed President largely on that issue.
In office he helped shape, and as Presi-
dent signed, the tariff measure-the
Dingley measure-which lifted Amer
lean production out of the slough of
depression, and gave to American bust
ness an impetus which carried all
branches of it to steady and un-
paralleled prosperity. Why should
not Ohio speak for protection, and

The Tariff and Protection.

In New York yesterday Senator
Harding. in an address before the Ma
tional Potters' convention in session
there, sounded the note of protection
in these terms:
'T do not care how much men NAV
sneer at it. | do not care how much
men may say that the old American
protective idea is a thing of the past
] warn you now that if we expect to
maintain American eminence we must
still cling to the policy which made
America eminent. | have noted with
very great interest the moderate
switching of the party now in power
to this helpful American idea"
The tariff question is necessarily in
allegiance. At present, business con-
ditions, both at home and abroad, are
too unsettled to make advisable or
possible a general revision of tariff
duties. We have not only our own
affairs to consider, but the affairs of
those nations-particular the lead.
ing ones-that are on our trading list
They will soon be revising their
tariffs; and in what we do we must
take their revisions somewhat into
account. We want our trade with
them to prosper.
But when the time comes-when
business conditions warrant-we shall
take up the tariff question, and then
the old American policy Of ssstection
will present itself and Congress will
have to deal with it.
The war was no respecter of public
questions, but affected nearly all OF
them, the tariff included. 1t cannot be
stated until Investigations have beer
made to what extent the tariff ques
tion now differs from the question a.
il existed and was dealt with before

some extent it does differ.
