every individual Southern producer
into the protectionist ranks that It is
only question Of a short time be-
fore the most valiant support OF
protection will be from the South,
and senators now working against
il win either be straining themselves
the other way or viii be out of Of
flee.
Neither the emergency tariff bill
nor the permanent tariff bill pro-
tecting agriculture can be defeated
unless Republicans use the stiletto.
What is going on in Washington is a
deliberate campaign to undermine
the new administration before it
takes office. But these gentlemen,
who are out to take profits by un-
dermining agriculture, might as well
try to beat back the tides. Parties
do not make opinions; opinions make
parties. National decisions, like
Topsy, somehow just grow up. Never
was g decision so surely in process
of elimination as that involving the
protection Of American farms. No
party is powerful enough to prevent
it becoming operative. Men who get
in the way will be swept aside.
The emergency tariff bill should
be passed. It is not Emotional" and
it is not ell considered" The argu-
ments for it cannot be refuted. Only
prejudice rises up against it. The
attempt TO hold it up is ominous, and
the tire to beat back the assault
on American farms is now, when the
campaign is in its beginning.-Man-
ufacturers Record.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1921-01-20

Of the tariff as soon as conditions
shall make IL necessary for the pres
ervation Of the home market for
American labor, American agricul-
ture and American industry. For a
permanent good fortune all must
have a common interest. If we are
to build up a seIf-sustaining agri-
clture here at home the farmer must
be protected from unfair COMPETE
'tion from those countries where ag-
riculture is still being exploited and
where the standards Of living on the
farm are much lower than here.
In times past duties on agri-
cultural products wire largely in the
nature of paper tariffs, for we we're
great surplus-producing nation.
Now that consumption at home is so
nearly reaching normal production
the American farmer has a right to
insist that in our trade relations
with oeher countries he shall have
the same consideration that is ac-
corded to other industries, and we
mean to protect them ALL"
There is no intelligent student of
affairs who does not know that the
time for protection of the farms is
upon us. There is no man versed in
affairs who does not know that the
attack on the emergency tariff bill
is an attack by selfish city inter
ests which are determined to do Just
what Senator Harding declared so
emphatically ought not to be done;
that is, sacrifice agriculture to COM
mercial and industrial expansion.
Some Southern members of Con-
gress, who ought to know better, are
being used to further this program.
They are still thinking in terms Of
fifty years ago. Their opposition is
only of temporary Importance, how
ever, because it is illogical that the
farmers Of the whole nation outside
the South should be demanding pro-
lection urgently and the farmers of
the South be against it. The eco
nomic situation is so rapidly driving

take to make the United States a
self-sustaining nation-which means
that we shall grow within our own
boundaries all Of the staple food
products needed to maintain the
highest type Of civilizatoin--or
whether WE SHALL CONTINUE TO
EXPLOIT OUR AGRICULTURAL
RESOURCES FOR THE BENEFIT
OF OUR INDUSTRIAL AND CON-
MERCIAL LIFE, and leave to pos
terity the task Of finding food
enough, by strong arm methods, if
necessary, to support the coming
hundreds OF millions. If we
should unhappily choose the course
Of industrial and commercial pro-
motion at the expense Of agricul-
ture, cities will continue to grow at
the expense of the rural community,
agriculture will inevitably break
down and finally destroy the finest
rural civilization, with the greatest
possibilities, the world has ever seen.
Decreased farm production will
make dear food, and we shall be
obliged to send our ships to far
away nations in search of cheap
foodstuffs, the importation Of which
is sure to intensity agricultural dis
couragement and distress at home.
Ultimately there will come the same
fatal breakdown, and from the same
causes which have destroyed the
great civilizations Of centuries
past. A frank recognition by
all our people of this fundamental
truth is necessary if we are sue
cessfully to work out this great ma
tional problem"
That is what Senator Harding
thought then, and it is what he thinks
now. And here is the pledge he
gave and which he will fulfill:
eve are pledged to the revision

Penrose or Harding?

There has appeared in Washing
ton the vanguard Of internationalists
and short-visioned American BUSH
ness men who have made up their
minds, if by any possibility it can
be accomplished, to strangle and
ruin American agriculture. Their
argument is that we can afford to
let agriculture go by the board in
return for the wealth they expect to
secure by foreign trade.
We say to these gentlemen, in the
Republican party or out Of it, that
they are embarking on fight which
win leave them bankrupt Of influ-
ence and authority and can do moth
hing more than put them in their po-
litical graves. They are starting out
now, before the next Administration
has even been seated, to drive that
administration into reputation of
its definite commitments. This they
cannot do. The new president will,
if need be, meet them on their own
battle-ground, and if he does there
will be nothing left Of them when he
gets through, but a memory.
We do not have to ask where
Senator Harding stands on the
emergency tariff bill or on any tar
iff bill which has as its object the
maintenance of agriculture in the
United States. Senator Harding,
fortunately, gave this subject inten-
sive study this summer. Deliberate
ly he went to Minneapolis and there
he outlined in uncompromising de-
tail his views and his conclusions.
He said:
"The time has come when, as a
nation, we must determine upon
definite agricultural policy. We
must decide whether we shall under

exceptionally handsome one of lemon -colored
satin, brocaded In bunches of silver wheat.
The short wasted basque is cut low and
laced tightly up the back. An overskirt,
edged with rufies of valenciennes lace,
drapes into an elaborate train and as drawn
back from the front reveals a tight, short
underskirt Of cream satin embroidered In
roses and morning glories.
A handsome real-lace fcht Is folded
across the shapely shoulders, which reminds
one that Mrs. Madison was Quaker. After
her husband became President, however, she

history for the delectation Of future genera
tons But six years ago an interesting
custom was established whereby the mistress
Of the White House turns her inaugural
gown over to the National Museum at
Washington, to be placed on exhibit
with the "period costumes" which they
have, after considerable difficulty, secured
and added TO their historical mementoes.
THESE costumes, which are a collection
! Of dresses worn BY White House mis-
tresses from, Mrs. Washington to Mrs: Will
son, are not only unique In their historic
connection, but represent one Of the most in
teresting and educational exhibits Of Ameri-
can fashions. The dresses were worn at the
inaugural balls or state affairs by the First
Ladies, or, IL the President were q widower
or bachelor, by his daughter or niece who
acted as hostess Of the White House. In
most instances they are heirlooms obtained
from the descendants, who, naturally, parted
from them with extreme reluctance, but who
have eo-operated in every way with the mu-
scum In bringing the exhibit up to its pres
ent perfection.
The dresses are draped on manikins, dis
played in glass cases. The faces of the 6g-
ures are copied from Connolly's "Cordelia,"
but the differences in style Of dresses and
eoiftures make such complete change in ap-
psarsnee and expression that no two look
alike.

In the whole administration.
Naturally, the women of the nation are

Will it follow the lines Of the prevailing

Will it be short, trained, high -necked or

it lean toward that much dreaded conserv-
ative simplicity that the majority of women
find it so difficult to adopt?
In deciding upon the gown Mrs. Harding
will have much to take into account-not
only the part it will play in the present but
the future. Her costume, she knows, must
serve as an index to the First Lady herself, !
