At the very cerned it would seem that a prohibitive tariff on any- thing that can be produced in this country might work out greatly to our advantage. This would mean that even higher wage levels could be paid and the work-| ing classes provide an even greater market. | “If we can manage to use in this country all that| we can possibly produce it follows that the scale of| Hiring is going to increase. What we export that is| made from our own raw materials means just so much less for ourselves. | “We need always to bear in mind that the United | States is in a radically different situation from a com- mercial nation like Engiand or a nation of artisans like | France. Our success depends upon the utilization of) our own raw material. Experience has demonstrated that a protective tariff is necessary for the greatest success along these lines. ened THE YOUNG MAN IN POLITICS. “Ninety years ago a young Mlinoisian of twenty-| three, announced his candidacy for a seat in the legis-| C is ey oe cS or if ) fe, iy ls | ) } \ ‘height of his usefulness and value to the world, with ithe years of preparation, of trials and struggles, cour- fngeously met and conquered, with a future full of jpromise of reward for himself and those who reposed| jfaith in him, and with possibly greater need of his iguiding hand to complete what appeared an unfinish- fed destiny—he has been cut down. ‘The inability of the human mind to reconcile the incts of Providence with what we ourselves would ar- lyange is due to lack of patience and understanding. ‘or all time we have cried out in our anguish when se we loved and appreciated the most highly were tched from us.

The history of bridge failures under flood conditions shows that the fail- ures can be traced to one of three causes. They are practically all due either to undermining of the founda- tions of the piers and abutements, or to insufficient lateral strength or to lack of anchorage of the superstruc- ture to the supports. When a bridge is submerged, or nearly so, its weight, which serves to assist in holding it in place, is reduced by the weight of the water displaced.. Flood waters also have a great velocity which produces a sidewise pressure and the debris car- ried down the stream and often piled up against the bridge adds to this pressure. Consequently, many bridges are pushed from their supports. Others fail because their piers did not rest on the proper foundations and were undermined by the waters. That bridges can be built that will withstand the extreme tests of flood times has been demonstrated time after time. In July 1916 when great floods raged in North Carolina many houses, factory building and bridges were washed away. Great masses of this debris piled up against the con- crete railroad bridge across the North Broad river at Ashville, yet even un- der this extroordinary strain the big structure did not give way. As a re- sult many other bridges further down- stream were saved as the debris was kept from piling up against them. This bridge rested its foundations on solid material which could not be af- fected by the waters. Its weight and lateral stiffness were very great.
