THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. he pendi tariff bill is estimated to yield from pg peven ‘hunted millions in revenue to the gov-| ernment. The Fair Trade League has asserted that: “The present low tariff rates yielded in 1920 within 1% per cent of as much revenue as ever realized under the higher rates of previous tariffs.” The league is careful to omit the fact that in order} to accomplish this it required over five billion dollars | in imports, while less than two billions in the last year ‘ef the Republican tariff law yielded $318,000,000 in revenues. ; The average ad valorem rate of the Underwoo law, still in force, is about 6 per cent, so that in or- der for that bill to yield the revenue estimated for the Fordney measure, we would have to import from ten to eleven billions of dollars’ worth of imports. That would have a fine effect on American production; weuld it not? It would so paralyze American indus- try that there wouldn’t be the widow's mite of income or corporation taxes forthcoming outside of the swol- len profits of the importers of foreign goods. That is just the sort of thing the Fair Trade League hank- ers for. Its idea of fairness is that the importer should be given the American market and the Amer- ican manufacturer and farmer may whistle for theirs. ‘The protectionist may be biased in his views. He is personally interested. The free trader is certainly biased in his views. He has foreign goods to dispose of. But since there has to be bias one way or another, isn’t it a little bit safer to give the protectionist the benefit of the doubt since he is the American man- ufacturer, or the American farmer, who is fighting to retain a preponderant share of his own home market? If one were to call the roll of the Fair Trade League and study the membership, he would probably find it made up of internationalists who advocate surrender of nationality to the league of nations, the gift out- right of the Panama canal to every other country, America alone to py tolls, and American disarma- ment regardless of the action of the other powers. Having put through that program they would make their money here and go to Europe to live. Boa ES eh a JUST SHOOTS SCATTERING. Additional fuel to the burning question of the hour has been added by Leslie Miller of the Kinney Oil company. It comes in the form of a bale of corres- pondence addressed not directly but openly to Gov. Robert D. Carey. Mr. Miller rather takes the gov- ernor to task for an attempt to induce a Colorado cor- ~ poration to set up a group of filling stations in Wyo- ming, implying by such action that persens already engaged in that line of business in the state are profiteers. Mr. Miller points out that the governor took no pains to learn the facts relating to cost and selling price of gasoline and other products, cost of opera- tion or particulars of the business; but invited the Continental Oil company to come into Wyoming and put the Wyoming dealers out of business. This seems to be the governor’s method of bringing down the prices of refined products to the people. e Mr. Miller shows by figures from the principal cities im the state that dealers operate on a margin of from one cent to four cents above tank wagon prices. The fair average over the state would not exceed two cents which is exactly the margin the Continental, on its own authority, would charge. Therefore, Mr. Miller is strongly of the opinionsthat the governor has gone off half cocked, which is noth- ing unusual for the governor to do. In any event the governor has not exactly en- deared himself to a very important and active busi- ness interest in the state by affixing the hated label of profiteer to them, when reasonable diligence in se- curing the facts would have shown him was without justification. SSG ke eS. ANTE-DATES THE PYRAMIDS. The girl with the bobbed hair need not be so fresh about it. She is introducing no style old timers are not familiar with. Well-known old settlers of pre- pyramid days are pointing to the fact that the daugh- ters of the early Pharaohs affected bobbed hair and| some of these very girls properly pickeled and spiced| and rolled in linen are in evidence to prove the fact. Even in the Field museum in Chicago may they be| ¥iewed, bobbed hair and all. | Those who have kept close track of modes of doing hair recall not only in Egypt but the beauty parlor! advertisements of ancient Peru showed bobbed hair to be the rage.

There is no manner of dressing the hair half so at- tractive as bobbed hair. Anybody of good taste will tell -you this. It is jast as becoming to the grand- mother as it is to the flapper. We all stand in fear and trembling lest the style changes. —— ae THROUGH BRITISH SPECTACLES. We sometimes are compelled to go away from home to secure testimony as to how things are work- Rey.

Lord Leverhulme, also, after returning from a visit to America, unhesi- tatingly spoke in its favor. During my residence there its benefits were to me amazing, among which I noted the following: (a) Other businesses were more prosperous. Shops and stores, had to be enlarged, more accommodation provided and additional assistants engaged. (b) Poverty vanished; there were no poor. (c) Home life was greatly improved, and homes in every way better furnished. (d) The jails were soon emptied and turned into business premises. i 5 {e) There were healthier children; a feeble-mind- ed child was a rarity. (f) The unemployment problem was solved, there being a great demand for workers in trades which had tot previously flourished. (g) There was larger industrial output. (h) People gradually purchased their own homes. (i) The deposits in the sayings banks were great ly increased, and the banks had to provide more coun- ters and clerks. (i) Investments greatly increased. (k) There were immense municipal improvements and lower rates. e (1) The death rate fell yery considerably. A REPUBLICAN RECORD. The lowest general mortality rate on record is re- ported for the Philippine Islands for the year 1920. That is‘a reflection of great credit on-the health sery- ice established by Americans. Wonder what the death rate would be if the Quezonists and independ- encias sceured control of the government? Added to relaxation of the vigilance of the health department there would be a few revolutions, possibly a number of assassinations, and a fight with the Moros who have’ always been bad medicine for a Tagalog to tackle. The majority of the Filipinos know this and are content with American supervision of the affairs of the islands. ———0 THE AMERICAN HAT. “In thebe days of uniformity,” says Leslie's, “any change in the direction of individuality is gratifying. Such a change is that under way in the fashion in at for the Slouch is driving the Derby from the field. “This is well not only because the Slouch has the advantage in comfort and is less conducive to the fall- ing out of hair. It is also more expressive of person- ality, for the man must conform to the Derby, but the Slouch hat conforms to the man; a sunny nature shines the brighter for the upward tilt of the forward brim; the pugnacity of the decisive is proclaimed by 2 fierce downward slant over the eyes. The flexible crown as readily yields to the nature of the individual, “Moreover, the Slouch hat is the American hat. Under its shadow the west was won, from the Alle- ghenies to the Pacific. It has adapted itself to every American condition. Southern suns broadened its brim for the plante: and gave it a protective hue. On the plains its brim stiffened to meet the flowing winds and widened to assist the far-looking eye of cat- tleman and scout. In the Civil war it abetted the aim of the Confederate rifleman and embellished with a golden cord if adorned the heads of union officers. Under its twin ridges the boys of ’98 followed Roose velt up San Juan and marched under the medieval tow ers of Manila; and then the war department Jearned from the cowboy and molding the crown into a single | fluted peak set it upon the heads of our Mexican bor- der patrols and those of the men of our national army. “But, whatever its form or color, it was always the Slouch hat; and so it still remains, however the hat- ters may bind its rim, or adorn it with ribbons—the shat of independence and individuality, the American hat.” ele oe Sy ALICE, THE OUTSPOKEN. “Whether or not you agree with the Hon. Alice Robertson, M. C,, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer, “you are compelled to admit that she is an upstand- ing, hard hitting, self-reliant person who does not shun a fight and who toadies to no one. Perhaps she is a poor politician. Surely she is no opportunist. By opposing the go-called “better baby” bill-Miss Robert son deliberately antagonized a number of powerful or- ganizations of women and allied herself with what she knew was a Hopeless minority. But she spoke in accordance with the dictates of her judgment and her conscience, and this is what legislators ought to do. “The more we compare Miss Robertson with her sole feminine predecessor in congress the more we ai mire the “stateswoman” from Oklahoma. Miss Ran- kin of Montana once shed tears in congress, but she did not make much of an impression. _ Miss Robert- son, an older woman and a woman of an altogether different type, ‘makes her influence felt without even trying. And when she does try she does something very much worth while. baby’ bill was a notable effort, a straightforward pre- sentation of the honest convictions of a woman and a member of congress. Even those who are in the most irreconcilable disagreement with Miss Roberts son’s views may be generous enough to give her credit for having done something courageous and _praise- worthy.” + atlas a GUMMING THE GAME. The Democrats of the senate showed a marked lack of good faith when they refused to take up and dis- pose of the celebrated Newberry election case. The Republicans of the committee on privileges and elec- ns are anxious that the senate should vote, and de- cide once and for all whether Mr. Newberry is en- titled to his seat, but the Democrats insist on jockey- ing about, seeking an opportunity by parliamentary tactics of winning an advantage ‘that they cannot gain by their votes. The prosecution of Senator New- berry from the yery beginning has been a proceeding of which the Democrats can be anything but proud.
