ANOTHE INFANT INDUS
TRY NEEDS HELP

1t is rather disturbing to note the
possibility that the print paper Gin
FAINT industry" may lose out in its eff
forts to get tariff that will shut out
all print paper from foreign parts. 1t
seems that there are Republican as
well as Democratic congressman who
are willing to let the paper spruce
trees of Germany and Sweden and ev-
en- Russia compete with our own rapid
ly disappearing spruce. trees.
Of course, print paper manufacture
ing is no infant industry in America.
And nobody claims it to be. Hence
reference in the foregoig paragraph
is to the infant industry of profiteer-
ing of which the American print paper
manufacturers gave us such an excel
lent exhibition UP to year or so ago.
Our spruce forests have been rapidly
disappearing into the pulp watts of the
said paper manufacturers until, to-
wards the end of the year, it. became
apparent that there would be q short
age of paper. Thereupon, the prices
of paper, which had sold from 2 to 3
cents pound, was rapidly showed up
to 6 cents, 10 cents and even as high
as IS and 20 cents pound.
Take it from us, the profiteering
that was done in paper over two or
three years was one of the most gor-
geous things you ever saw in AmeFi-
can business! Then Sweden and Nor
way and Germany began shipping pa
per to this country to sell for as low

The DeSoto Press of last week pre-
sented the name of Judge Edwin j..
Bean, of that place, as a candidate for
Judge of the Missouri Supreme Court
at the next election, and gives num-
Der of very excellent reasons for such
suggestion, among them being the
fact that this great southeast section
of the State has in the past been more
or less Sighed when it comes to max
ing selections for State office, and es-
pecially for the higher judicial places.
The suggestion of Judge Bean for
that important place will doubtless
meet with hearty approval throughout
this part of the State, as well as other
sections, where he has many friends.
For several years he served with dis
tinction and marked ability on the
Public Service Commission, under
both Governor Major and Governor
Gardner. Today he ranks high among
the best informed men in the State in
legal learning, and is in every way
qualified to carry to the State Su-
preme bench that poise and dignity
that is there so essential.

Now the information comes that
the amount of the soldiers bonus
bond issue will fall short probably rs
or so per cent of paying Missouri's
ex-soldicrs the minimum allowance of
$40 per month for the time spent in
the service in the late war. 1t seems
that little effort was made to ascer-
tain the number of soldiers in the
state prior to fixing the amount Of
the bond issue, but like a lot of the
other attempted great (?) endeavors
of our Republican friends, they used
more guesswork than business judy
ment. Thus is furnished another ev-
idence Of incompetency and laundering

upon to endure from its present gov

CAN YOU BEAT IT?

On the editorial page of last Tues
days Globe-Democrat appeared a car
toon which was unusually Illustrative
of the present condition of the United
States in regard to the liquor ques-
ton, and which was practically true to
life. The title of the cartoon was
"There Was An Old Woman Who
Lived in a Shoe" The old woman is
seated in a chair on a knoll above the
shoe, has a bootlegger across her
knees on whom she is vigorously
welding lash, and wearing heavily
clouded glasses, so is ignorant of the
fact that the part of the bootlegger
which is supposed to be most affected
is protected by pillow. There is al
so line of bootleggers awaiting SIM
liar punishment.
The old woman's children, apparent
ly numbering thousands, are pressing
the old shoe to capacity, like microbes
in an unsanitary cess-pool, and ap-
parently represent the drinking pub
lie. They are being supplied by boot
leggers who practically surround their
abode. handing out liquors from grips
and heavily loaded autos, to the clam
oring families. Those in the upper
apartments are being supplied by the
use of fishing poles and lines! Down
in the hollow, on the other side of the
shoe from the old woman are g num-
Der of stills. from which the bootleg
gers are operating most industriously.
There also is shown an old woman
quietly rocking and smoking, and
watching kettle on her cook stove,
which is equipped with worm, through
which liquor is running into jug, and
bargain day rush is shown about
stand that displays a sign "Moonshine
for Sale" A first aid" man is rem
dering assistance to those who have
partaken of an overdose of fusel oil.
There is much flood for thought" in
that cartoon. Can you beat it?

LONG URGES FOREIGN
"s POLICY BASED ON
JACKSON'S IDEALS

Speaking at the Jackson Day ban
qet given Monday evening given
by the Tennessee Society of st. Louis
at the st. Louis Woman's Club, Brock
inridge Long, former Third Assistant
Secretary of State and recently an
nounced candidate for United States
Senator from Missouri, illustrated by
the life of Andrew Jackson the prin-
ciples of government which he be-
lieved would do much to relieve Ger
tain existent conditions of today.
A strong foreign policy based upon
respect for the American flag and the
just mediation of all disputes, no pro-
hibitive tariff in restraint of trade and
stricter economy in the administration
of governmental affairs, were named
by Long as characterizing "The Spirit
of Jackson--Past and Present. Gov
ernmental debt Long termed a econ
tagiious disease, recommending Jack
sons policy Of prompt reduction as a
very beneficial innovation if put in
practice now.
IF the spirit of jackson could guide
the present administration it would
stop the useless expenditure of public
funds in Washington, would restrain
the national expenditures within such
bounds as to permit an application of
our enormous national income to
systematic effacement of the national
debt the speaker declared.
PrOhibitive Tariff
at was Jackson's policy to disturb
as little as possible the avenues of our
foreign trade. He looked upon trade
intercourse as being inextricably in
volyed with our own domestic pros
perlty. 1t is even more so TODAY
than it was then. 1t might be def
nitely stated that his policy would not
resort to the expediency of prohib-
tive and indefensible tariff, SO high
that it stops the flow of revenue into
the public Golfers and at the same
time prevents commerce between our
citizens and those of other lands"
In regard to the foreign policy of
jackson, the speaker quoted the FAM
Gus Democratic leaders own words:
"Our best wishes on all occasions,
our good offices when required, will
be afforded to promote the domestic
tranquility and forcing peace of all
nations with whom we may have IN
tercourse.
The burden of his speech was an
historical and critical summary OF
Andrew Jackson's life, thus chosen
because the affair was an annual OBJ
iervance by the Tennessee Society of
the birthday of "Old Hickory. Be-
cause January 8 fell upon Sunday
the society held its annual assembly
last night.

The postal department recently has
announced school" for newly ap-
pointed postmasters in Missouri which
these fortunate individuals may (and
must) attend in st. Louis for per.
iod of a week at their own expense
thus to familiarize themselves with
their duties and in every way max.
for the efficiency in service which Mr.
Hays and his subordinates are espec-
tally stressing just now. Back under
the Democratic regime postmasters
were chosen for their ability and II
was not necessary to put them under
a period Of training, but under the
Harding administration politics is
made the sole consideration and it is
well, no doubt, that the appontees are
schooled in their duties. Beyond
question, lot of them need it.

ANENT HARDING TURKEYS

Harding turkeys were selling at
40 cents per pound, cash, last week.
A good sized gobbler will sell for
more money now than a 200 pound
hog would under the Cleveland adj
ministration. Chickens, eggs, butter
and cream are all bringing good pric-
es, and even hogs are bringing I
cents on the market"
The above is an editorial from the
brain of C. F. Eubanks 1.-THE ex- Judge
of the probate court of Sullivan coun-
ty), editor and chief editorial writer
of the Milan Republican.
Poor old Judge, like a drowning
man, he grasps at every floating
straw. Yes, turkeys are selling at
40 cents pound, but the Judge" is
not eating any of them; neither are
we; they are roosting too high for us
they taste too much like silver for
the Judge, for'us or for any poor
man who is now wearing the Harding
badge. But they are all right for the
Hardings, the Hydes, the Hoovers,
the Garys, the Kiels, the Goldsteins,
the Lodges and the Penroses and all
the rich guys.
Harding turkeys" How true and
accurate the Judge" named them,
but he never did (nor never does)
tell his readers the truth about what
caused the turkeys to be so high.
People in Sullivan county know why
they are so high. They know there is
a scarcity, not only in this county,
but all over the country and tba
erich guys, knowing there was a
scarcity and believing they (the rich)
would not get any of them to eat,
they cracked the price up SO high it
made it impossible for US Common
folks" to even look at turkey gravy
this year.
Harding turkeys" is right. They
are bringing 40 cents a pound and an
ordinary sized one brings more than
200 pound hog, and all of our farm
ers have hogs and none of them have
turkeys.-Milan Standard. '-

as cents--and still cheaper, if nee
essary. That killed the paper prof
itecring infant industry for the time
being.
Now the silver-tongued profteers
are asking for COED stiff tariff To
prevent the pulp paper from foreign
spruce woods to come into this coun-
try, Such tariff would enable them
to advance prices again at will.

soaking every man, woman and child
who buys q paper?

If there is bigger humbug-under
Republican rule-than the Civil Ser
vice, will some kind friend please
point it out to me? l copy, as anro-
pos to my query, this item from the
Cass County Democrat: "It's q both
cred bunch of small bore Republican,
politicians down in Barry county at
present. In the Civil Service exam
nation for the postmastership of the
Exeter office three Democrats ranked
as the high applicants with grades,
and just at this time they have not
solved the problem of how they will
get around the appointment of an
other Democrat as postmaster. They
will, all right, though. It's the cas-
lest thing in the world. All they have
to do is to borrow leaf from the
Garden City postmastership in Cass
county. If on the first examination
the right Republican applicant doesn't
pass, or if no Republican at all ap-
plies, merely have another examina-
lion ordered. President Harding
should amend his executive order to
make the "rule of six" apply instead
of the rule of three, and dispense with
the trouble of additional .examina-
tons. "-1ronton Register.

FOR THE SMALL
TOWNS TO FIGHT


All small towns in the United States
should protest to the government
against the recommendation of Post
master General Hays that mail deliv-
cries be abandoned in some 750 towns
having less than 10000 population.
Instead of abandoning mail deliv-
cry in single village. the system
should be extended. ..
Mail delivery is one of the most I'M
portant services--if not the most i'm
portant service-that government can
render to community. This is so
strongly recognized in the cities and
large towns that the people of those
places are constantly demanding NOR.
letter carriers and speedier facilities
at stations for handling their mail.
In fact, nobody in the postal depart
ment even dreams of reducing the sys-
tenn in the larger places.
Why should the people of the small
towns be picked on to suffer?
If government once starts this thing
of abandoning the little service it now
gives small communities, there is no
telling where it will end. If 752 towns
can be ruthlessly deprived of letter de-
livery in one big lump. it will be easy
enough to pick larger places, one by
one, and drop them from the system,
All American towns of less than 10,-
600 population ought to raise ire
mendous fuss about this matter right
away and never let up until the gov
ernment adopts a direct opposite pol
icy--a policy of extension of service
rather than abandonment of any SER
vice under the sun, whatever it is.
