We Stand bu Our DUN

KING, of Utah, has unearthed the obso-
y lete and long forgotten language Of tariff discus-
sion dating back to the nineties. 1t has been a long,
long time such terms as "robber baron and wall
street Pirate have been employed by Democratic
statesmen, vet Mr.. King has robbed the political grave
ward and dragged them forth. In a few parliament
tary remarks on the tarnt Dill oeioNe TUG Se"AN N'
King said this:
aTrbe question here is simply this: Shah we let the
b.rons and The robbers and the trusts and the cor
porations have unrestricted power to continue exploit
ing and robbing. as many of them did during the war
and to increase their power for exploiting the Amer
lean people"
In the same address, in support of some Of his
views, the senator took occasion to quote two eminent
writer's in Europe. As he gets his quotations. so ne
gets his tariff doctrines-from across the Atlantic
Europe, although going upon a protective tariff basis
itself, wants the United States to abandon ITS radf
tional policy in favor OF protection Senator hing Is
in full unison with European propagandists VINO are
endeavorinr to influence American tariff legislation.
At the same time that he inveighs against the
sbarons- and robbers" and trusts" of the United
States he has nothing whatever to say against the
barons and trusts and robbers of Europe who would
flood the American market with products, close Amer
Jean mills and throw American workmen out of els
nIoyment- It has been repeatedly shown by facts
which cannot be questioned that European and Asiatic
producers are able to supply the American market
with various commodities at a price with which the
American manufacturer cannot compete while paying
American wages for American hours of labor. Not
outstanding this repeated demonstration, Senator
King and his associates on the Democratic side Of the
senate are willing that the large manufacturers of
Europe shall capture the American market and that
American prosperity built up Under either the protect
ing influence of a Republican tariff or the p~rohibitive
conditions incident to war, shall be sacrificed.
The only "robber baron" Senator King condemns
IS the American producer. The importer "robber
baron occupies a place of tender soiieitude in the
hearts of Democratic senators and congressman. The
so-cailed 'trobber baron" who operates an American
factory giving employment to American labor and
American capital is the recipient of Democratic in
vective.
In November the people of the United States win
have an opportunity to express a choice between the
American who produces goods in the United States
and the American who imports goods produced in
Europe or Asia.
The Democrats are standing by the importers. The
Republicans are standing by the American producers.

The Iewel of Consisfencu

MO PHASE of American foreign policy in the past
year has been clearer than that relating to Europe
in general and to Russia in particular. 1t has been
stated upon numerous occasions by the president and
by Mr.. Secretary Hughes. until every reading citizen
in the land IS familiar with our position. We would
have stultified ourselves by accepting the invitation
of the allied governments to attend The Hague con-
ference Just as we would have been foolish to have
been present at Genoa
The present administration had been in control of
the government a little more than a month when the
state department declared its position toward Russia.
It was plainly stated that the United States could
have no official intercourse with the Russians until
productivity had been made secure in that country,
thereby establishing suitable bases of credit. There
has been no deviation from that policy and that is
where the United States stands today.
When the Genoa conference was called it became
apparent that the Russian question would be the par
amount subject of discussion; in other words that the
conference would be political rather than economic.
The United States declined to participate in those de-
alterations for that reason. The soundness of that
position was ~strikingly emphasized when it was dis
closed at the conference that a secret treaty had been
made between Germany and Russia tending to set at
naugh any efforts the allies might make for a gem
eral understanding in Europe. The willingness of
this country to contribute to the economic welfare of
Europe has been demonstrated on occasions too num-
erous to mention, but it is no true American who
would wish to see his country involved in political
chickering's such as featured the Genoa meeting.
With their year old policy toward Russia and Ghe
revelations of the Genoa conference before them, the
framing their reply to the allied invitation to The
Hague meeting. It was an unequivocal mo- coupled
with n rei~teration of the American attitude toward
Russia. 1t is true that the United States indicated a
Willingness to join the allied governments in arrane-
ing for an inquiry by experts into the economic sit
uation in Russia and the necessary remedies But
of course participation in such an inquiry is totally
different from representation in The Hague parleys.
The one would be merely to assemble facts, while the
other will be an attempt to act upon such information
as may be at hand.

Kidding Themselves

WHAT MORE convincing evidence can be brought
w against a person than his own words. What more
telling argument against a newspapers ~sophistry than
its own printed statements For instance there is
the New York Times. the foremost exponent and
acknowledged megaphone of Democratic views and
sentiment. The Times makes the statement edito-
rally that the Democrats count on the tagging of
prosperity to win the next house of representatives.
As an exponent of the party of opportunity, fatten-
ing upon calamity, the Times runs true to form. 1t
may be as sincere IN its present statement az it is in
its alteration of Thomas Jefferson but turning to its
daily news columns its editorial position becomes ride
ulous, for prosperity is not tagging according to its
