HOOVER AND THE WAR.

It Is customary to blame Hoover for
everything that a person did not like
about the war.
| Most of Hoover's activities during
the war were confined to trying to
feed the starving folks of Europe, and
right after the war to trying to do
the same thing for women and chill
dren and babies of Germany, Austria
and Poland. He was food administra-
tor during the war, his service ending
on June 80, 1919.
He had nothing to do with fixing
the prices of anything and his duties
as food administrator so far as food
prices were concerned had to do only
with administering the price which
was placed on floods, feeds, and there
derivative products" by the Democra-
tic administration.
Hence, all questions about prices of
steel, coal, clothing, etc., should be re-
ferred to the Democratic party and
not to Hoover.
: The great sugar squeeze of 1920, for
which Hoover is frequently blamed
did not come until twenty months af-
ter Hoover went out of office During
Hoover's administration the price of
sugar did not go above $10.5O per hun
dred pounds at seaboard.
1t was not until nearly two years
after Hoover had stepped out of the
food administrator office that sugar
took its soar in price, conditions at
that time being entirely within the
control of the Democratic admins
tration.

itself would take care of the corn sur
plus in average years. The manu-
facture of all these chemical products
can be fostered through proper tariffs
2. Our ability to raise potatoes
usually outruns demand for them. A
greater industrial use of potatoes,
particularly as substitutes for raw
material now imported, would take q
large share Of the surplus off the
market. This can be encouraged
through proper tariffs.
8. The industrial use of oats and
oat straw can be fostered in such way
as to take care of the average oat
crop surplus
4. The use of farm-grown substi-
tutes for vegetable oils imported from
foreign countries in immense quanti-
ties would help take care of the sur
plus of nmerous farm crops.
The noteworthy efforts of Thomas
Edison to search for rubber produc-
ing plants that will grow in this coun-
try is symbolic of the spirit of this
form of possible farm relief.
The Department of Agriculture
after experiments found out how to
make wrappers out of cotton to be
used for baled cotton. Our enormous
cotton crop has been going to market
wrapped in jute from India. This is
just another illustration to show how
surplus can be taken care of through
the business method of finding new
uses for the product.
Practically every farm product can
be benefited indirectly by tariff
that protects product manufactured
from some farm product. The Re-
publican party has always stood for
such kind of tariff. The average
so-called farm leader" never thought
of the possibilities along these lines
for farm relief, but they are in the
line of progress and are typical of
the methods and policies of business
to protect itself against surplus pro-
duction

A TRIBUTE TO MAIN STREET.

In an address delivered at Eliza
bethton, Tenn, Saturday, October 6,
Herbert Hoover paid tribute to Main
Street which reveals the character OF
the man who has won the confidence,
the respect and the admiration of
rural America. Referring to the op-
portunity given him for service to the
South following the Mississippi flood
disaster, Mr.. Hoover said:
II, with other Americans, have per-
haps unduly resented the stream Of
criticism of American life, the stature
and character of our people. More
particularly have resented the sneers
at Main Street. For know that in
the cottages that lay behind the
street rested the strength of our ma
tional character When 1t came to the
organization necessary to meet that
great catastrophe the pressure OF time
alone made it necessary to rely wholly
upon the leadership, intelligence, the
devotion, the sense of integrity and
service of hundreds of towns and VII
lagos on the border of the flood. It
was they who must undertake the in
slant work or rescue the building OF
gigantic camps, the care OF children.
the provision of food, the protection
of health of three-quarters of a mil
lion of homeless people. All that we
who were in the direction could do
was to outline the nature of the SER
vice that every town and village
should perform, assist them with re-
sources. In the face of that terrific
problem that would test the stamina
and quality of any people there was
not a failure in a single case. This
perhaps stands out larger in my mind
than in most men because under sim
liar conditions of great emergency ]
have had the duty to organize popula-
tionS abroad. And in no country does
there exist the intelligence, the devo-
ton, the probity, the ability to rise to
great emergency than exists in the
Main Street of the American town
and village. I do not wish to dis
parage the usefulness of Broadway,
Pennsylvania Avenue or State Street,
but it is from Main Street and its
countryside that the creative energies
of the nation must be replenished
and restored"

IRON AND THE TARIFF.

In an editorial on the tariff, the
Mcdowell Recorder, WEIGH, West Vir-
ginia, shows the industrial difficulties
that have resulted from low duties.
Commenting on the Underwood Tariff
that severely cut prospective duties
on all iron and steel products, it says:
"In the spring of 1914, Belgian iron
bars and Belgian tin plate were sold
successfully in Pittsburgh in competi-
ton with American made bars and
American plate. In other words 1t
was possible for Belgian, German and
English iron and steel makers to pro-
duce their goods, ship them across the
ocean and pay the railroad freight
from Boston, Baltimore or New York
City to Pittsburgh, and sell them in
competition with American made
goods.
"Why
Simply because the iron makers of
those countries live on a lower plane,
have fewer comforts of life than the
American, and practically none of
the luxuries
mo man, who has Travelled in Eur
ope, to say nothing of Asia, fails to
come back with a heightened appre-
citation of American institutions, and
American social life. The protective
tariff is the bulwark of these institu-
tions industrially"
The Ely miner., 1928-10-19

Arson is the most hsinouS crime, the
most deSpicable act conceivable. When
someone decides to sell out to the
insurance company" by setting fire to
his property, it is with the deliberate
intent of defrauding the underwriters.
As a matter of fact, the public is
robbed as well the insurance company,
for when arson is committed, the ex-
pense of the fire must be spread over
the entire community, in the cost of
fire insurance. In this way, the in
nocent pay for the miSdeeds of the
guilty. Thus it is evident that, fin
ancially, the repression OF arson is
vital matter to everybody, and that as
a matter of public safety the fire
fiend should be combatted at every
turn. There is a still more important
reason why the public should be in
tenSely interested in curbing this vi
cious crime-the loss of life from fire
is appalling, thousands being killed
every year, particularly in arson fires.
The fire-criminal generally does a
thorough job, often working in the
dead of night. AS a result the fire
spreads with terrible rapidity, and his
victims awaken, horror stricken, to
find themselves surrounded by flames
and escape impossible. Then, too, this
type of blaze has generally gained
such headway before the fremen ar
rive, that a larger percentage of prop
erty is destroyed than in other fires.
The arSonist is very dangerous fac
tor in the fire situation and every
citizen should bear down on him and
all of his kind.
The Ely miner., 1928-10-19
TARIFF IN A NUTSHELL.

There is one man in the United
States who holds long record as a
Member of the House of Representa-
tives- Nicholas Longworth. He has
heard the protective tariff policy of
the United States attacked in every
Congress since 1900. No one is better
qualified than he to sum up the ad-
vantages of protection as against the
dangers of tariff tinkering. Address
ing an audience of three thousand
women in Brooklyn on October 2, he
declared:
"No Republican protective tariff
ever closed factory, mortgaged a
farm or caused an American man or
woman to lose their jobs. No Demo-
cratic tariff law ever failed to do all
three"
Ask the older men of your acquaint-
ances. They will tell you that every
time Democratic administration was
in power with its tariff tinkering and
free trade policy, the country went
into slump. 1873, 1893, 1918. Why
change?

A CAMPAIGN CODE.

I shall be resolute and alert to
discount all campaign stories re-
f1ecting on the character, Spirit and
purposes of candidates, and to
realize that if they are hateful they
are born of hate, and therefore
probably are lies.
shall do my part to keep the
campaign free from hate and hate
fulness.
I shall scorn bigotry but pity the
,igot.
shall support the candidate of
my choice stoutly, but I shall not
belittle the opposing candidate or
lose patience with his supporters.
I shall not let political differ
ences of any kind whatever spoil
my friendship with my neighber.
I shall freely yield to my neigh
bor who differs with me in thought
the respect for his views, even
though I believe them to be mis-
taken, that I expect for my own
views even from those who believe
me to be in error.
I shall strive throughout the
campaign to keep my temper cool
and my spirit sweet, for only so can
see men and issues clearly and
judge them fairly.

HAUGEN ENDORSES HOOVER.

Gilbert N. Haugen, Congressman
from Iowa, who is one of the authors
of the McNary- -Haugen bill, is sup
porter of Herbert Hoover and evident
ly believes that in Herbert Hoover
the farmers have friend. In a
speech at Mason City, Iowa, the other
day Mr. Haugen said:
Though not in accord with Mr.
Hoover as to the equalization
fees I, of course, admire and respect
him for his frank expression of his
honest convictions and give him due
credit for his many achievements, long
experience, great ability and high type
of character, founded upon integrity.
"Why worry over the equalization
fee? It is not a political issue. Now
where in any party platform, Ger
tainly not in the Kansas City or
Houston platforms, is it specifically
mentioned, nor can any specific COM
mitment to it be found.
eff another method believed better
or equally good is devised, it will, of
course, be given consideration when
the matter comes up for solution,
when all will as in the past exercise
their best judgment and vote as their
conscience dictates for what is be-
lieved to be in the best interests of all.
"In this campaign many of the i'm
portant controversial questions up for
consideration and solution are those
of previous campaigns, and believing
as I do that under republican principles
and policies we have advanced along
the lines of accumulation of wealth,
giving employment to the American
wage earners and everything that
makes opportunities and advantages
to the American people, and believing
that the best interests of the Ameri-
can people will be best served under
the continuance of republican princi-
piles and policies, shall support Her
bert Hoover"

DATA ON GROWTH OF sU'
REPORTED BY PRESIDENT

Figures announced by President
Coffman show that there were 104
students at the University of Mime
sofa when classes began this fall for
every 100 who were there year ago.
The gain was slightly less than the
average increase of recent years.
Without counting the graduate
school, which last year enrolled to-
tai of about 1900 students, many of
whom registered late, the figures show
that Minnesota began the year with
10,023 students, as against 1922 in the
fall of 1927. These are all collegiate
students Extension, correspondence
included
This years enrolment is approx
imately twice that of the college year
1917-1918, when there were 5,567 stu
dents at the University. Growth was
Swiftest in the years Immediately fol-
lowing the war, and in recent years
has ranged from four to eight per
cent annually. This years increase
| is fraction over four per cent and
may reach five per cent when grad
uate enrolment has been completed
All divisions show increases this
year except Nursing, Law and Agri-
culture. In both of the latter two
the drop is slight. The biggest per-
| centage gain is in the School of
Mines, which increased from 79 to 100.
Tabulated by colleges the changes
from 1927 to 1923 have been as fol-
lows: Science, Literature and the
Arts, from 4,168 to 4,460; Engineering
and Architecture, from 1929 to 1924;
Agriculture, Forestry and Home Eco
omics, from 729 to TIT; Law, from 272
to 260; Medicine, from $50 to 586;
Nursing, from $50 to 448; Dentistry,
from 253 to 254 Dental Hygienists
from 46 to 48; Mines, from 79 to 12O;
Chemistry, from 226 to 272; Pharmacy
from 1872 to 1870; Education, from 1,O9S
to LIT; Business, from 268 to 2778.
