FREE TRADE


|. Tariffs and other restrictions on
trade ate forms Of economic war, shat
require navies and other armaments to
support hem, and they lead sooner or
later to physical warfare. Wee all The
markets IF the world open on equal
terms to everybody. there would be
nothing TO Be gained BY war. and the
imperialistic systems Of government op-
pressing the world would disappear
from sheer uselessness. Hence. Inter-
national Free Trade Is one of the most
important steps toward world peace
and an indispensable preliminary 10 dis
armament,
2. The cost Of taxes on imports
(plus profit) i added u The prices.
not only Of imported goods, but Of the
corresponding domestic goods as well.
The abolition Of these taxes would low
er the cost Of living BY the amount Of
the taxes and the large. cost Of collect
ing them. and still more BY compel
Hing free competition between goods
from all parts Of the world.
3. Lowering Of the cost Of living
would Increase real wages: the pur-
chasing power Of money wages For
example, if suit Of clothes which now
sells for $40 could be bought for $40,
the $40 saved could Be used to buy
more clothes OF other desirable things:
4. Both the spending on additional
goods Of the amount saved BY lower
prices and the Importation Of more for
Ieign-made goods would cause the pro-
duction Of more goods to sell at home
and to exchange abroad and thus make
more jobs. Increased demand for la
ibor compeIs higher money wages for
workers Of all kinds.
5. Buying more goods from other
countries which would occur under
Free Trade would increase the pur-
chasing power Of workers in other
countries, and So lead to their buying
more Of our products.
6, The freer competition that would
result from the abolition Of trade bar
lriers would not only make the forma-
ttion and existence of monopolies more
Idifficult, and probably result iii their
gradual disappearance, but it would
also lead to the removal Of industries
from places where they can exist only
Iby being subsidized-a the expense q
others TO where they can Be carried on
most economically. This would tene
Ito lower prices.
Thus we see that International
Trade means; Cd Permanent Peace;
(2) Lower cost Of living; ~ FIighe
wages; az More goods for all; go
'lMore Jobs and more business; 10 Iht
curbing Of monopolies and more econ
omical production.
Free Trade can come about only
when sufficient number Of people
know its advantages and demand it. 4

IN the same breath it yells for an M
creased tariff unable to see that the
tariff is IN purpose and effect bloc
kade and as deadly to an industry as
the blockade is to a nation. Wall
Street, declaring against blockade
and for tariff is just as imbecile as
the people in their declaration for a
tariff and its direct opposite, the abol-
ition Of all privilege!
The tariff is the arch-conferrer Of
privileges as well as the arch-robber Of
the working people Of the world; and
It is million times worse than direct
import and expoH taxes; for the peo-
pie who pay these KNOW that they
pay them; but tariff is 81 sly and se-
cret and silent in its method Of coIIec-
ton that the deluded patriots pay and
pay and pay until they die from the
extortlon, without ever finding out what
they are paying for, Of Why II costs 50
much to have 50 few Of the necessar-
les or luxuries Of life; or that the sole
direct cause Of the Investment of home
made wealth in a foreign industry is
precisely the same direct cause Of the
mihtafistic system. Of both internal and
international wars. and also Of the gi-
gantic poverty Of the world, and that
the sole direct cause of all these evils
is LOCALIZED RESTRICTED TRADE.
As soon as the people Of the United
States wake up out Of their hypnotic
protectionist sleep, there will be an end
OF war and Of all Of the evils that ac-
company and follow ii, but not until
ious well-understood causes, due to var
ious well-undrstood causes, is now in
the responsible position of being able
to do whatever she knows to be RIGHT
and TO demand that the rest Of the
world Join her in this righteous action;
and she will have the courage to dc
| this as soon as the people give her a
voice.
Awake to the wholesale, universal
evils, nationally and individually. thai
result from the various forms Of legal
lized interference of International Free
Trade, she will become free trade ma.
ton and disarm; and she will demano
the immediate repeal of every such re-
striction the world over and with it The
Immediate disarming of all nations
These demands will be granted. anc
trade will return to its natural domain
lof mutual business unhampered BY the
government Of any nation.
The abolition Of privilege will mari
the passing away Of the very rich anc
the very poor and the beginning Of tina
long era in which getting living vii
be made easy for ALL. the mere posses
sion Of wealth will give no one influ
ence among his neighbors; and thrl
fthe voluntary cooperation Of well-paic
Ilaborers, all things desired will be a
hand, as easy for all 10 procure a
matches and pins are now. And wa
will be no more in the earth, becaus
1.-THE cause of war will have been de
stroyed.

We have never learned the tremen-

W. H. Ally.

The death Of Mr.. Wilson H., Ally
occurred at his home on ':Glen Allen"
plantation, in this parish, on Monday
night, June 9Th, after long and ling
ering illness, resultant directly from
Bright's disease, accompanied by q
stroke Of paralysis.
Mr.. Ally was born in Pope county,
Illinois, March IA, 1865, coming
from sturdy Illinois stock. He located
in Tensas parish in 1889, with the
late Mr.. ]. M. Gillespie, and lived
for some time on "Panola" plantation,
later going on Holly Grove" and
after the sale of the Gillespie prop
critics by the late DIR. Gillespie to the
Pamela Co., Mr.. Ally was made gen.
eral supervisor Of the several places,
thereby holding an official position,
until his failing health caused him to
resign, some years ago, since which
time he has lived on his own prop
erty and practically all Of which
time he has been an invalid and has
suffered greatly.
Mr.. Ally was truly one Of the best
citizens this parish has ever boosted,
and has served with much ability
and usefulness on both the school
board and police jury. His wo-d was
ever his bond and he always did what
he believed to be right, his con-
science ever being his guide. He be-
lived in the Fatherhood Of God and
Brothxhood Of Man and his path
way through life evidenced the prac-
tise Of the precepts Of that noble
faith.
In 1895 Mr.. Ally was marreid TO
Miss Matte Griffin, sister Of the
late DR.. Griffin Of Franklin parisL.
To this union six children were born,
five Of whom survive, one dying in
infancy. His good wife Of % years
Of welded bliss also survives him and
mourns good husband as the child
ZEN do q devoted and indulgent
father. Tensas has lost \ .cod citizen
and his neighbors q good friend. He
Is also survived by brother, Mr..
Ralph Ally, also Of this parish.
The remains were inferred In
"Routhwood" cemetery, below New
elton, the funeral obsequies being
performed by Rev. N. J. Mclean, Of
the Presbyterian church. The funeral
was attended by q large concourse Of
sorrowing friends, al business houses
Of Nswellton being closed during the
hour Of service.

The Police Jury of Tensas parish
and the Board of Aldermen Of st.
Joseph each held important meetings
this week, the proceedings of which
we are unable to publish until our
next. The Police jury met on Tues
day afternoon instead of morning,
as some of the members wished to
attend Mr.. Aly's funeral in the fore
noon, of which body he had in days
past been q member. The proceedings
were long and large list of bills
was allowed. The Board of Aldermen
met in special session on Thursday
night and again on Friday morring.
These proceedings were also some
what long. The late meetings of these
bodies interfere much with the pub
fishing of the proceedings, even
though the minutes are promptly
supplied to the paper. The Levee
Board also met on on Wednesday, for
first time since subsiding Of the
flood. These proceedings were very
long and being important we had to
give them precedence over every
thing else. We do not like to delay
publication of proceedings of the
public bodies, but when several of
the boards meet the same week, and
each toward the middle Of the week,
congestion follows and despite modern
equipment in keeping probably with
the best of the country press, we
are not always equal to the occasion.
Therefore with this explanation we
again say that to our regret we can
not publish the proceedings of the
Police Jury and the Board of AL
dermen until next week.
