Judge Ldudon
Discusses Tariff
BELIEVES RETENTION OF GRAIN
TARIFF is FRIGHT
TRACK.

The following article, appearing in
the Public Pulse" column of last
Friday afternoons issue of the Min
neapolis Tribune and written by Judge
A.. R.. A. Laudon of Redwood Falls, is
of especial interest in these days of
much. pro-and-con tariff discussion.
81 read with some interest Mr.. Ho-
mer SiegePs article in the Public
Pulse column entitled Tariffs and
Natural Laws" The view that
tariffs are sufficiently strong to over
ride natural law when applied to pro-
ducts consumed by the farmer, but
entirely fail to give protection. to the
+ farmer on products produced by him
seems wholly illogical, and is entire
ly unwarranted by common expert
ence.
The National Republican under date
of April Z, 1923, presents impressive
facts directly to the contrary. Under
the Underwood low tariff law, and
previous to the enactment of the high
tariff McCumber bill the Winnipeg
prices of No. 1 wheat regularly ex-
ceeded the Minneapolis prices by from
to cents per bushel. After the
enactment of the McCumber high
tariff bill, while there was a general
decline in prices owing to world cor.-
ditions, yet the decline of Winnipeg
prices was so much greater as to
make difference in favor Of Mime
apolis of from 25 to 80 cents per
bushel
The following figures furnish elo-
quent proof that Mr.. Siegel has prob
ably erred:

fer to. Minneapolis No. l Northern;

NOT SURPRISED
WHEN GAMING
CASES PASSED
Barton Merely Called on
MAskill to Verify Ex-
pectations.
FIVE CASES SET
No Probability Rangers Will
Be Removed From San
Antonio.

81 didn't expect these gambling
cases TO go TO trial, ] only went TO the
district attorneys office to verify my
expectations"
This was the remark made By Adiu-
tant General Thomas d. Barton FRI
day morning when asked il he hadn't
been in conference with District At
torney ID. A. McAskill. The adjutant
general was seen 10 have gone into the
district attorneys office. 1t developed
later, however. that the district attor-
ney was not there at the time.
Il was subpoenaed here as witness
in the gambling cases." General Bar
ton said. Although I didn't expect
the cases to go to trial / came over
anyway to-verify my expectations and
TO prevent the newspapers from COM
ing out with glazing headlines saying
had failed 10 answer the subpoena"
Not Conviction 0t.sinc.l.
Five gambling cases had been set
Court. A murder trial was in prog
ress in that court and had it not been
for the accident TO Judge McCrory,
who was struck by an automobile, the
cases would have been passed anyway.
ccAtiut OIL inc tdStS pTOUdUiy Will NC
made when General Barton returns to
his office.
The cases which had been set were
those of Bert A. Buick, ID. X. Carver.
Ben Ruby, Billy Ramsey end Lennie
Anderson. All of them grew out of
the activities of the rangers since
their stay in San Antonio. A num-
Der Of cases of a similar character
have been called and either the indict-
ments quashed. dismissals made or in
structed verdicts given. No convic-
tons so far have been secured.
San Antonio Good Base
General Barton Friday denied the
rumor that he contemplated removing
the rangers from San Antonio TO
Houston. He admitted that one man
might go TO Houston Friday on bust
ness but said it was not probable that
the detachment now stationed here
would be moved in the immediate fu-
ture.
San Antonio, General Barton said.
is good base of operations for the
rangers, to work in the border country
southwest of here. This. he said, has
been recognized for a long time. Al
though General Barton did not say so
in so many words. he intimated that
the "clean up work of the rangers in
San Antonio has been completed and
that they are held here now TO operate
lin nearby sections. In other words
San Antonio IS merely their base.
