The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1928-09-07

The recurrent statement that the
farmer suffers from the protective
tariff is disproven by the facts.
1t is held by free trade and low
tariff advocates that farmers must
buy in a protected market and sell
in ruinous unprotected market. An
examination of the tariff laws shows
the reverse of this to be true.
Practically everything necessary to
agriculture is sold in free trade
market The list of articles is illum-
mating. 1t includes plows, harrows,
reapers, threshing machines, cultiva-
tors, cotton gins, wagons and other
machinery. Animals imported for
breeding purposes come under this
duty-free provision as do binding
Irvine, all material for fertilizer, build
ing materials, etc.
The. second superstition is equally
iunsound. Farm products protected
by customs duties include almonds,
grapes, apricots, bacon, beef, oranges,
onions, tobacco, wool, prunes, hay, fax,
wheat, cattle, butter and long list
Of equally important produce.
It may be that the duties are in
some cases too low and need revision
upward. Certainly, a cure for low
duties that afford insufficient protec-
ton from foreign, low wage scale
countries, is not to drop all duties and
all protection.

HE MUST BE BLIND.

The editor of the Good Thunder
Herald made motor trip up through
northern Minnesota a week or two
ago, and appears to have gone nome
with a very poor opinion OF that sec
ton He says he saw the monument
for the victims of the Hinckley fire,
the graves of those lost in the Moose
Lake fire. and was rained on In Viz
ginia. He says we have some good
roads and good-looking school houses,
but that in other respects this region
UP here is total loss.
We don't know this bird. He may
have been all over the world, or he
NAV have spent his life in Good
Thunder, venturing forth occasionally
for a taste of city life in Blue Earth
or New Ulm. He may be a cosmoponte
or he may be hick. He may nave
ratified over northern Minnesota IN
an anti-auated flivver, or he may nave
gracefully fooled a Rolls-Royce amid
the scenes of desolation he described.
Whatever he is or has, we're oil him
for life. When an editor can't md
ANYTHING to rap without picking on
the most beautiful section OF his own
state he is punque editor, and full
of prunes. He should have kept still
about his trip to northern Minnesota,
and turned loose the bitter venom OF
his pen against the f1eas OF southern
California, the murderous gangs OF
Chicago, the pimply-faced panderers OF
the great white way, the bootleggers
of Washington, or the ague-stricken
denizens of the Arkansas swamps. He
would thus have avoided giving
offense to the brilliant bevy OF lit
literau who are wearing out type
writer's trying to create the impress
sion that northern Minnesota is a
regular place to live, and at the same
time have conveyed to his readers a
suggestion that he knew something OF
the places he referred to. He would
have been on safe ground, whereas
in this case he is not, since most OF
his readers know that northern Min
nesota is the fairest land under the
stars and stripes. We once knew an
orchestra director who knew next to
nothing about music, yet held a wor-
shipping coterie of rich admirers by
always selecting music that neither
he or any in his audiences had ever
heard. When talking through the hat
it is well to choose a subject not
familiar to your hearers.-Isle Ad-
vance.

READ AND THINK.

CM F. Hanson in Duluth Herald.)
did you ever stop to think, young
man, of the meaning of the news you
read in your newspaper day after dayP
did you ever stop to think of what
it means in teaching the right way OF
life for individual, community and
nation? Did you ever take home to
yourself the warnings 1t conveys of
what awaits the nation, community
or individual that breaks the rules OF
honor and fair play that were laid
down before the worlds were made?
1.-The wise young man-and young
woman, too-win read the news
thoughtfully, not idly. He will form
his own opinions of the meaning OF
what he reads, and he will use his
reasoned deductions to fit him better
to fill the place he should fill in the
