Upon that It Happened in Wyoming Matters and Things, of State-Wide A True Pioneer BUFFALO.—George Seymore Bartlett, a pioneer of the truly Old West, died last night a natural death at the age of eighty-four. Mr. Barlett was born in New York Stats in 1839 but came to Wyoming and settled in Buffalo in 1884. penter by trade, Mr. Bartlett assist- ed in the building of practically all of the older structures of the city at a date when construction material was freighted overland from Rock River, and other southern points. ‘The deceased was a Union soldier in the Civil war and for the past few years has made his home in the Soldiers’ Home here. He was a member of the G. A. R. and a past commander of the local post in tha: revered order. the Knights of Pythias, Mr. Bartlett is survived by two sons and two daughters, Earl W. Bartlett, Glen E.

Hence it was essential that Euro- pean nations should be warned to stay on their own side of the Atlantic. The Monroe Doctrine is not regarded with favor by the persistent European propagand- ists who look upon this nation as a European province, and who do not feel that America is “doing her duty to the world” unless she mixes in every trans-Atlantic controversy. Armistice Day was used by the sob sisters of this persau- sion throughout the country to loose maudlin utterances about the “selfishness” of America’s policy of “isolation.” That policy commended itself to Washington and to all his successors in the presidency down to Woodraw Wilson be: cause of considerations quite as potent today as their argument for American independence of European politics was when Washington inquir- ed Why quit our own to stand on foreign round.” > 4 The fight for the sacrifice of American inde- pendence, of American security and American solvency to selfish European nationalism, con- tinues. Part of the agitation is the effect of mere sentimental slushymindedness. Part of it is fin- ancial in its inspiration and is sordidly unpat- riotic in the highest degree. American patriots are called anew to the de- fense of American ideals, American institutions, American prosperity and American safety against the propaganda of these advocates of de- parture from American tradition and _ polity. Europeanized Americans would involve the United States in the war-breeding political sys- tem ef Europe and would throw the Monroe Doc. trine into the discard along with the American Declaration of Independence. After the passing of a century the Monroe Doc- only one voted for the budget and seven were against the budget. i These are-the facts, set down in cold in the Congressional Record. The statement that the budget is of Democratic origin has no foun- dation in fact. It is so notoriously untrue as to rule out the charitable supposition that the statement was made out of stupidity, particu- larly since the facts above set forth took place only three years ago. If the record for truth and veracity made by those in charge of litera- ture for Democratic Women’s clubs is to be mea- sured by their statements relative to civil serv- ice and the budget, then there is no hope of Democratic women, who depend upon this liter- jature, knowing any truth. regarding the manage ment of public affairs or the history and record of political parties. Wants to Come Back ‘The economic policy of a country is for itself to determine and other countries must abide by |that determination. That does not mean that jother countries are not vitally interested in the |policy determined upon. Just now it seems cer- ain that the British will return to the poli of protection, the traditional policy of that na- tion for centuries, until the “Corn Laws” were repealed in 1846. But Lloyd George, former Brit- ish premier, has been lovking about for some issue upon which to hang his candidacy for a return to that position, aud has fixed upon free ,trade as the issue upon which he will depend. | Upon his return from his visit to this country and Canada he lost no time in announcing his platform. He said, according to the dispatches, concerning the purpose of Premier Baldwin and the conservative party to hold an election for the purpose of commit tia the nation to the : vital ica than it was when | Protective tariff policy, connection with the!

Under that doc every grain of statesmanship beaten out” It is often said that “Politics makes strange bedfellows,” and not only does it make strange | beafellows, but it makes men do and say very| strange things. If Vremier Baldwin had an-! newneed his intention of going before the people | on a platform advocating the abolition of the} British preferential and the abolition of the vustoms duties imposed as a ieasure of pro-! iertion during and since the World War. Lloyd| | veorge’s first words upon landing would un-| doubtedly have been in fafor of an adequate pro- tective tariff, supplemented by a pronounced British preferentiat. Under present conditions the “mother coun- try” is losing her world textile trade to France. | Bradford has been for many years the center of the English woolen goods trade, but has been! losing that trade to France. The French manu-| facturers have been underselling the Bradford, manufacturers in Bradford itself, and have of- fered to dye woolen goods made in Bradford for thirty per cent less than they can be dyed for in Bradford. Germany has been underselling the |British in most lines while the British sales to |Canada have been less than the sales made by the United States. The British have been losing all along the line and it has been simply because they have “fed starving industry with mildewed stew concocted by Cobden and his followers with- in the last century, namely since 1846. The Brit- lish cannot compete with ‘other nations who have lower production costs without adequate pro- altruism in international relationships by re fraining from aggression upon the other repub- lics of this hemisphere. Interference has been kept at the minimum necessitated by the pro- tection of legitimate European rights on this continent which without our interposition would have been made a cause for war against our weaker neighbors. The maligners of America, home grown and foreign, who emit drivel about the “selfishness” of the United States, may find in the course of this nation under the Monroe Doctrine a suffi- cient answer to their mendacions attacks upon America and Americans. There has not been a time since the days of James Monroe when this nation was not strong enough to take anything in this hemisphere it wanted. Our will to peace has been demonstrated as certainly as Europe’s will to war. The advice of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe in matters of in- ternational policy is as good today as ever. We have had many evidences in recent years that Europe's political nature has not changed for the better since Washington's day.
