WATCH YOUR POCKETBOOK

During the remainder of the So
journ of a number of strangers with
in our midst, without trying to seem
paternal or give out the idea that a
number Of Garrett County's worthy
citizens are gullible to smooth-tong-
ued fakirs, The Republican wishes to
advise all people to watch out for
these strangers during the remainder
of the week.
Several complaints have come to
the editors knowledge concerning
these fakirs within the past few days.
AS yet there is no town ordinance a.
gainst them. So, if somebody wants
to give away an empty pocketbook,
or even pocketbook with money in
it, watch out. He is after more than
he is giving.
In cases of this kind, it will be we'll
to remember that anybody who wants
to give away something for nothing
is either crazy or has a scheme for
"beating" you. Giving away things
as a general rule, just isn't being
done these days.

heard those promises before and it is
fully familiar with the sorry sequel.
AS Senator Smoot says, the Repub-

into accord with the latest conditions,
but they will do so, as they have al
ways done, in a manner to conserve
the national prosperity. The Demo-

are industry's and labor's best friends.

EVANSVILLE.
Fire Destroys Dwelling

A fire of unknown origin destroyed
the dwelling house owned by Albert
Dahlgren located three miles south
east of Grantsville, and occupied by
Edward Pritts and family, Saturday
evening between the hours of eight
and ten o'clock. Mr.. and Mrs. Pritts
and their children had left the dwell
ing early Saturday evening to go to
Meyersdale. They left lamp burning
in a room of the house, which may
have exploded and fired the building,
although this is only matter of con-
lecture. The fire was discovered by
neighbors and when they reached the
burning structure it was a mass of
flames. The fire destroyed the build
ing and it's contents, including a pi-
ano, beds and bedding, clothing, heat
ing and lighting plants, several hun
bred jars of fruit and others things
The Grantsville fire truck was called
but before it arrived with a number
of men the house was burned to the
ground.
The house was partly covered by in
surance, but the furniture, ETC., be-
longing to Mr.. Pritts was uninsured.
The loss is deeply felt by Mr.. Pritts
as coupled with this latest loss thieves
had stolen quite a number of chickens
during the month of July and set his
chicken house on fire. Mr.. Pritts and
family are now living with neighbors.

BORAH WARNS FARMERS
AGAINST FREE TRADE

Governor Smith specifically cited
the Underwood tariff law as indica-
tive of what the Democrats would do
to the tariff if they were restored
to power. The Underwood tariff, pass
ed by a Democratic Congress and
signed by a Democratic president in
1913, put the basic farm products of
the United States on the free list.
Senator Borah, who knows the west,
the live stock industry and other farm
interests, is quick to scent the alarm
ing import of Mr.. Smiths utterance
on the tariff. AS Borah says, it is
the "most important" item in the ad-
dress, so far as the west is concerned.
"We do not want to go back to the
free list with farm products, as the
Underwood tariff bill carried them,"
protests the Idaho senator. "What we
desire are increased duties on farm
products"
A return to free trade in farm pro-
ducts, as Governor Smith is propos-
ing, would be disastrous blow to the
west. Senator Borah cites a single
item-cattle. The record shows that
''prior to the passage Of the Under
wood tariff act our importation of
live cattle amounted to 125,000 head
for the year ended June 80, 1914; un-
der the Underwood tariff importations
jumped to 86S,O00 head"
Then the World War came on in
1914 and saved the American farm
ers for a while from the penalties of
free trade in her products. Millions
upon millions of men were withdrawn
from the farms of Europe and sent
to the battle front. All Europe was
eager, while the war was raging, to
buy every thing that we could sell.
With the end Of war and the return
of millions of men to the farms, con-
ditions again were reversed, and in
the closing year of Wilson's admins
tration the United States became the
dumping ground of foreign farm sur
pluses.
Senator Borah speaks of cattle; but
all other live stock was stripped of
protection by the Democratic Under
wood tariff. Meats, too, were put on
the free list-pork, hams, bacon, lard,
beef, veal and mutton. Wheat, corn
and their manufactures were on the
free list. Milk and cream, too; and
eggs, potatoes, wool and many other
products.
Alarmed by increasing capture of
their home markets by foreign pro-
ducers, the American farmers sent a
mighty protest to Washington. 1t was
ignored by the Wilson administration.
Then, when the Republicans came
back to power in 1921, the protest
was needed. An emergency tariff was
hastily passed for the protection Of
farm products, and later agriculture
was given still greater protection in
the general tariff law.
If Smith ever had chance to carry
a western state, he has impaired or
destroyed it by his alteration of the
Underwood tariff. The probability
now expands into seeming certainty
that he will lose the few western
states that are normally or occasion
ally Montana, Wyoming,
South Dakota, Arizona, New Mexico
and Oklahoma.
What is the logical conclusion from
these facts of record? That the Dem
ocratic party cannot safely be trusted
with tariff reform" It's record on the
