THE NEW TARIFF LAW

THERE is one thing to be
l. thankful for today; namely,
the American congress, after
wrangling for a year and eight
months, has finally enacted a tar
if statute. The American people
as a whole are perhaps no nearer
an agreement upon what consti-
tutes wholesome legislation of
this kind than they were n hun
dred years ago. IF congress could
be left alone, it perhaps could
work out a law which would be
reasonably wholesome. There is no
hope of such a situation if we are
to Judge by what has been happen
ing in Washington for the last
year and a half.
We have always present with us
the manufacturer who is mighty
solicitous on the surface about
what is going to happen to Ameri-
can workingmen, while in his heart
and in his effort he is trying to
get legislation which will largely
add to his profits. This is the in
Equity of a protective tariff. 1t is
always a place where selfishness
takes ready root and grows into
mammoth proportions. Such stu
atoms probably can never be pre-
vented under tariff laws that in
clude protective purposes.
The bill which has finally been
completed in congress, and which is
to be the law of the land for some
time to come, has one distinct de-
parture in the making of American
tariffs. The president is given au-
thority over the taxes that can be
imposed. He may increase or de-
crease any rate in the law by so
per cent if he thinks 1t is necessary
to do so in order to analyze the
difference in the cost of produc-
ton at home and abroad. In addi-
ton to this, within his discretion
he may declare American valuation
in assessing ad valorem duties.
A new power is placed in the
hands of the president-a power
that can hardly be measured in ad-
vance of experience. The test will
be: How wisely will the average
president use this power. A radical
departure has certainly been intro
duced into our method of raising
tariff revenue. To what extent a
president might misuse the function
that has been delegated to him at
this time need hardly be empha-
sized. because it is clearly appar-
ent on the face of things. In the
theory of our government, the rails
ing of revenue is a distinctly leg
islative duty. The transferring to
or the centralizing of this admin
istration in the hands of a single
man is open to all of the suspicion
that has been voiced against it.
Well, we have now the much her
aided republican tariff. When the
country has used it as many months
as it has been in the making, we
shall then see what the people think
of it.
There will be another election
about that time

ROOSEVELT
CONVENTION


THE third annual convention of
i the Montana division of the
Roosevelt international Highway
was held in Wolf Point on Satur-
day. The marked interest in this
convention is like to that which
has been shown in all of the road
conventions which have so far con-
vened in Montana this year. All
of which pretty thoroughly estab-
fishes the fact that the people of
this state are more interested than
ever before in the building OF
scientific highways which may be
used all the year around. This
means of course that with some re-
newal of prosperity, there will be
continued during next year and the
year after a desire on the part OF
our people that we go ahead with
road construction just as fast as
finances can be arranged in a rea-
sonable way. 1t emphasizes the
duty that will rest upon the next
legislature to arrange so that this
state in some way may provide
funds TO match up every dollar of
federal money that may be avail
able for this state. IF there is not
such legislation, there is surely
going to be serious criticism i'm
mediately thereafter.
The time is well past when we
need to argue the value of a good
gravel road between important
business towns and cities. Every
body who lives in Great Falls and
who made trips to Choteau and
Belt ten years ago, and who does
business over the same roads now,
Is thoroughly convinced that the
money put into these thoroughfares
comes back into the pockets OF the
people in a very few years in an
amount equal to the total cost OF
construction.
The Tribune is delighted at the
success that has been worked out
by the Roosevelt Highway associa-
ton up to the present time. I'm
proved mileage is being added every
twelve months. The people along
this road are thoroughly interested
In its development, We believe. We
shall not be surprised IL it will
soon clearly win the title of the
best road across Montana. We are
also of the opinion that all things
considered, it has the greatest pos
sibilities of any highway that has
been or may be built from ocean
to ocean. 1t goes from Portland,
Maine, to Portland, Oregon. We
are told that the highway is now
just about completed from Port
land, Maine, to Duluth, Minnesota.
Surely no other highway will rival
this one in the variety of mountain,
lake and river scenery. The brief
est outline establishes this point.
It goes through the White noun
tains of New Hampshire, along
Lake Champlain, across into Can
ada and then by the St. Lawrence
river to the Great Lakes; up
through Michigan and across
northern Minnesota and then on
out our way to Glacier park.
There is only one serious handi-
cap at the present moment-this is
the completion of the road from
Glacier park through Roosevelt
pass to Bolton. When this is &C
complished, the Roosevelt highway
will rapidly swing into a wonder
full accomplishment.
Great Falls. indeed, may take
some pride that its Commercial
club and Its citizens have always
been clearly and consistently be-
hind the Roosevelt highway with
4hs;r ;ufIueuce and effort.

Simms, Sept. 90. - Arrangeme nts
are now being made for the Simms
fair which will be held the first week
in October. Most rural fairs are held
prior to the state fair but the manage
ment of the Simms fair selected a
later date because of the fact that all
AGRICULTURAL products are more ma
tured and make for a better display
Farm work at that time is not as
pressing, giving the farmers more time
to prepare and view the exhibits.

GEORGE newman DEAD;
NATIVE OF WHITE PINE

George Frederick Newman died al
the Steptoe hospital, in East Ely
shortly after o'clock Tuesday aft
ernoon.
Death was due to an operation per
formed about three weeks ago fol-
drainage of the gall bladder Follow.
ing the operation but little hope was
held ont for his recovery, but hi,
wonderful vitality. which was per
haps due in large degree to the ex
emplary life which he had led, stood
him in good stead and his struggle
against the inevitable was almost
marvellous. All hope was abandoned
early Sunday morning and he was
surrounded by the members of his
family when he peacefully passed
away Tuesday.
Mr.. Newman was born at Piermont
in Spring valley, March so. 1871. and
had been a resident of White Pine
county all his life.
A man of high ideals. excellent
habits and heart of gold has been
taken to his home of eternal rest
after life of fifty-one years well
spent, and Nevada has lost one more
of its best citizens.
He was the son of Mr.. and Mrs
Peter F. Newman, without the men
tion of whose names the history oil
Nevada would be. to say tho least
incomplete.
When but boy his family moved
from Piermont to Schellbourne and
later to Cherry Creek. There he
served his apprenticeship as a black
smith in the shop then owned by lit
tie Alex Mcdonald. He followed his
trade in later years, moving from
Cherry Creek to Taylor and then to
0sceola when mining activities In
those historic camps were at their
height.
While at Osceola he was for many
years in charge of the mercantile
business of the Scott Mercantile Com
pany and in 1895 he was married to
Lillian Millick. OF this happy union
two children were born, son, Ar
thur. who died in Salt Lake a few

by Counsellor Anthony Zurich to the

A. J. Barr and complained about the
open ditch being constructed alonE
