TRADE TIDE EBBED
W|TH~[0N TARIFF
Protective Tariff Is Required To
Safeguard Home Market and
Maintain Balance of Trade
In Favor of Nation

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Re-
peated statements by Democratic
leaders that protective tariff cur
tails our foreign market for Ameri-
can products cannot be supported
by a citation of foreign trade stat
istics. The Democratic theory is
improbable on its face, for a pro-
tective tariff is a tax on imports,
not on exports. Since there is no
tax on exports the tariff could not
possibly affect our sales abroad
directly, and could affect those sales
indirectly only by making it i'm
possible for foreign countries to
buy our products because of heavy
balance of trade in our favor.
Whether this latter influence has
had the effect the Democrats claim,
is easily ascertained by an examina-
tion of the records.
For 16 years prior to the Demo-
cratic administration, which came
into power in 1913, the country had
maintained protective tariff drawn
in accordance with Republican prin-
ciples. During that period our an
nual favorable balances of trade
our excess of exports over imports,
ranged from 1888, 100000 to $685.
000,0O and averaged nearly $780,
600, 900. The Democratic tariff law
of 1913 became effective about the
first of October and remained in
full effect until the outbreak of the
war in the end of July 1914, which,
of course practically shut off i'm
ports and created an abnormal flow
of exports. The effect of the Demo-
cratic low tariff law can be judged,
therefore, only by that period dur
ing which the law was in effect
prior to the outbreak of the war.
Statistics show that although our
purchases abroad increased under
the Democratic tariff law, as was de-
signed by the Democrats when
they enacted that measure, yet our
sales abroad decreased, with the re-
suit that instead of being creditor
nation in our merchandise trade, we
were for several months prior to
the outbreak of the war a debtor ma
ton. Instead of increased pur-
chases abroad making a greater
market for our products in ac-
cordance with the Democratic theory,
that tariff made a smaller market
because the American producer,
necessarily curtailing his output un-
der the competition of foreign i'm
ports, was not able to manufacture
at so low unit cost, and could not
offer his goods in foreign markets
at so relatively low a price.
The first care of Americans should
be to safeguard their home market,
and this has been done by the re-
Gently enacted tariff law. During
and since the war we have en-
joyed an abnormal balance of trade
but this has been rapidly falling,
and will continue to fall until
normal condition has been reached.
The protective tariff will prevent an
ultimate flooding of the American
market-and we shall continue to
sell abroad all the goods for which
other countries can pay.

Mining Activity
There are more men employed at
the mines Of the Ely district at the
present time than for several years
past. There are probably about 500
men now employed at Ruth and
Kimberly, but as many more are
needed and will be put to work as
they arrive in the district. Miners
are scarce at the present time, also
muckers and common laborers.
The Consolidated Coppermines
company, which was recently re-
organized and is financed for an
extensive campaign of development,
Is now working about 100 men and
adding to its force daily. It is
probable with the amount Of work
outlined by this company that it will
employ several hundred men be-
fore spring in its various depart
ments.-Ely Record.

korich, who was employed at a

Hill climbed down to break some
large rocks in a chute and had
only struck few blows when the
earth he was standing on gave way
and he was buried beneath the
mass of rock, only his right arm
and the top of his head being
visible.
Men working near the depot hur-
ried to his aid and when about to
tie a rope around his arm a second
slide occurred and he was buried
out Of sight.
Redoubled efforts were then made
by his rescuers and he was finally
taken out after a hole about eight
feet deep had been dug down in the

YOUR HANDICAPS.

Do you enjoy your meals? Or do you often
find eating is a nuisance? Or, if a housewife, cook
ing is a pest, boresome, dreaded?
Frank Nayr, philosopher and seeker OF original
causes, makes a suggestion that probably has oc-
CURED to you.
Nayr says: Its too bad we cannot take in food
like a ilivyer at a filling station for gasoline. Case
line is, to the ilivver, what food is to us. And the
flivver gets exactly the right kind OF food-also Just
enough, neither too much nor too little.
1--WE humans are eternally eating too much food,
or the wrong kind. It's always a puzzle, what will
agree with us. We feel a craving for corned beef
and cabbage, or pie or lobster, but there's uncer-
tainty as to whether it will rest easily after it's down.
The doctors tell US our bodies are machines.
When it comes to taking aboard our fuel, we're much
inferior to the auto
Scientists say that bodies adapt themselves to en-
virnoment-that nature makes additions when need
ed, or takes away what is no longer needed. A
tavroite illustration is the blind fish OF underground
rivers, deprived OF eyes because 1t does not need sight.
OF the giraffe, which grew a long neck so it could
reach tender leaves at the tops OF trees.
Such changes, however, come very slowly. Mil
lions OF years, according to scientists.
In the last 25 years, man has changed his ways
OF HVlHg, MS environment, more tNal MS ancestors

We are developing so rapidly that nature isn't
keeping up with us. Hence our machinery for eat
ing and digesting and nourishing our bodies is infe-
rior to the auto, which we have created more eff
cient than our own bodies, human machines.
y queer notion, bizarrs yet logical, suggests itself.
Animals grow full, which protects them efficiently
against cold, Man keeps warm by artificial heat.
However-You're sitting at home, notice the room
is cool, Lie on the floor, you find the air cold,
Stand on a chair and you discover plenty OF heat up
near the ceiling where it doesn't do you any good.
Ii nature is guiding us, she is responsible for this
,ystem which has something fundamentally wrong
with it..
Genuine efficiency, with our present heating meth

to keep in the warm air by living on the ceilings.
Couldn't be; Flies do it.
CnqueStionably, our bodies are out OF date. Ma
ture is tagging, not changing us as fast as our pro-
gress and needs require.
No doubt, an idle congress one OF these days will
attempt to remedy the situation by Iegislating against
Mother Nature, or at least appointing an expensive
investigating committee, At that, it would accomplish
about as much as most OF these committees.
