CHICKENS COME
HOME TO ROOST'
Republicans Find This True Since
The Passage Of The Fordney
Tariff Law.

1t has long been a proverb that
Chickens come home to roost." In
the case of the Fordney tariff law it
might be more appropriate to call
them buzzards, for they are birds of
ill-omen. They are already coming
The Fordney law puts a greatly in
creased tax on sugar coming in from
Cuba, thing which increases the
price of the commodity to every A
merican user, but lessons Cuba's mar
ket for her principal product. Natur-
ally the Cubans are indignant and in
a bad frame of mind; like the re-
mainder of humanity their most SEN
sjtive nerves are those which extend
to the pocketbook. They are retaliat
ing by putting a tax of 100 per cent
on all American shoes entering the
countryside result is simply stated
no American shoes will enter. This
means the cutting off of the sale Of a
bout $14,00O,OO0 worth of shoes each
year, affecting the shoe business, fac
tory employees, and even the tanner
and producer of hides.
Does anyone think that the remain
Ger of the countries of the world will
witness this performance on the part
of Cuba and not take similar steps?
They are all hit by our tariff law
and it is only natural that they should
retaliate, they will do what any of us
would do as individuals-they will
buy from those who buy from them,
they will decline to purchase the
wares of those countries which shut
cut their products by high tariff walls
like the Fordney law. Their best
method of doing this is by fighting US
with our own weapons-retaliatory
tariffs. Does anyone suppose that
England, France, Italy, Japan, will
hesitate to do the thing which our
best friend among the nations has
Just done? Cuba owes her national
existence to the United States, yet she
has no hesitancy in fighting back.
Just the other day Senator Caraway
returned from Europe with the obser-
,ation that they are all antagonistic
to US. No one doubts this, for too
many evidences of its truth have APP
peared in the press. If Cuba can cut
deeply into our sales of one product
Ivy one tariff rate, what can all the
countries of Europe do to us in their
wrath? Already the great trade which
filled thousands of ships under the
late Democratic administration has
dwindled to less than half of what it
was three years ago, hundreds OF
great steel vessels are swinging idly
at their chains, hundreds of wooden
vessels new and capable, have been
sold for less than one per cent of their
cost with the proviso that they must
be broken up to prevent their sailing
in competition with the vessels of the
shipping trust. These are some of the
buzzards that are coming home to
roost on Uncle Sans high tariff
fence:
First speck and then vulture.
Till the air is thick with pinions."
These are the first of the Fastening
ills of Republicanism-tariff wars, idle
ships, Treasury deficiencies.

Success of Demos
Inevitable, States
William G.. McAdOO

Los Angeles. Calf, Nov 10
Democratic success at the polls last
Tuesday was Inevitable because re-
publicans have failed to interpret
correctly the sentiment and opinion
of the country, William G. McAdoo,
democratic presidential possibility,
charged in statement issued here.
"The administration has been re-
dictionary, narrow, provincial and
uninspiring from the outset" he de-
clared. ut has made no appeal to
the great moral and spiritual forces
without which no, nation can endure.
ut has given us wholly material
istic and soulless America. 1t has
been devoid of political morality as
evidenced by its whole hearted sup
port of the seating of Newberry. 1t
has made no appeal to the CON
science and spiritual forces of the
nation"
This is serious enough but its
economic policies have been equally
mistaken
