Early this month Ripon, Wisconsin, celebrated the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the Re- publican Party which it was contended occurred at that place. Next month Jackson, Michigan, will observe the three quarters of a century of Republican Party existence which it is claimed was born there. In August a similar celebration will take place at Springfield, Illinois. Each of the three cities claim to be the birthplace of the party which has governed" the country for most of the last seventy years. | President Hoover has thus far escaped express- ing his opinion as to the claims of the rival com- | munities. It is said that he will continue to do so.| Without attempting to pass upon the merits of | the respective claims it must be admitted that ' Jackson, Michigan, has had the best success in get- | ting her claims recognized. Monuments have been erected there commemorating the event. However, that there was a meeting at Ripon, Wisconsin, where | resolutions were adopted favorable to the estab-| lishment of a new party and committees appointed | to carry on the work there is no dispute. On the| other hand there seems no reason to doubt the| claim of Springfield, Illinois, that the first meeting to form an organization of National scope occurred at that town in August, 1854. In view of the fact, that advocacy of the formation of a new political | party had been rife throughout the country since the overwhelming defeat of the Whigs in 1852, it. would seem that the Illinois city has strong claim to the honor of being the birthplace of the party that six years later nominated and elected one of its citizens as the first Republican President. Spring- field contends that the Michigan and Wisconsin meetings were simply gabfests, while the Illinois meeting took definite action from which the purty‘ spread over the Nation. NO HIGH E‘ARIF FOR ENGLAND. John Robert Clynes, Home Secretary in the new MacDonald Cabinet, in a signed article in the New | York World, declares that the new Labor Govern- ment will do nothing to restrict British imports. He believes that through freer trade rather than restricted trade lies the hope of Great Britain and her working people. He declares that high tariffs would result in more unemployment rather than in increasing employment. Mr. Clynes says the experi- ments in high tariff in the nine industries selected by the late Administration (which included lace, gas mantles, leather gloves, fabric gloves, packing paper, cutlery, translucent pottery, tableware, but- tons and enameled holloware) upon which a 33 1-3 per cent. tariff was laid, have not been encouraging to those who hoped for relief through restriction of trade. In eight of the nine industries, he says, the experiments have shown decreased trade and increased unemployment. Only in cutlery has there |a rival. !mcrensed demands for high-grade English cutlery that has featured trade for years. It is due to the igrowing use of cutlery throughout the world. In fact, other countries as well as England have profited from the greater trade demands in this line. Mr. Clynes concludes that reduced trade, whether in imports or exports, always results in increased ‘unemploymem in shipping and other circles, loss of foreign trade and greater difficulty in making payments for imports. To this he adds another objection to higher duties which he characterizes as the greatest danger of all. That is that they “intensify the bitterness of international commercial struggles, and that as each nation increases the difficulties of trade for its competitors so the next world war is brought nearer.” If all the Southerners who want Federal appoint- ments in the North and abroad are successful there will not be enough Republicans and Hoover Demo- crats the other side of Mason and Dixon's Line to make the Southern States doubtful until another generation of voters are ready to cast ballots. Vice-President Curtis? He is the man who made the gallant fight for his sister’s right to a seat at the first table. Helping the Prospector in Alaska. (Mining and Engineering World.) Prospectors in Alaska are greatly handicapped. Only those who have substantial backing can af- ford to undertake work in that region. By the | Prospectors’ Aid Act, approved April 25, 1927, Alas- kan prospectors are given monetary assistance to meet some of their transportation expenses. Up to February 15, 1929, the total sum disbursed amounted to $18,736.49—a comparatively small amount when the importance of Alaska’s mining industry is con- 'sidered. The discovery of a single good mine in one year or in several years would more than compen- sate for the outlay. % The administration of the Prospectors' Aid Act seems to be carried out on a liberal basis, and pros- pectors do not appear to have taken undue ad- vantage of the situation. So far, 149 prospectors have received assistance, and 107 localities have ’been prospected in about 33 mining precincts. Each prospector is required to submit a written report of the results of the operations for which he re- ceives aid. Fifty reports have been received to date, some of which contain interesting and valuable material. Such a plan, operating over several years, will result in the accumulation of much detailed information about localities far from the well-trav- eled routes. At least one discovery has been made that seems to be of possible importance, according to the report of Mr. B. D. Stewart, Supervising Mining Engineer. . ‘The method undertaken by Alaska to stimulate |mining activity may be criticized, but careful con- sideration of the situation makes it clear that aid to prospectors is a worth-while experiment that should be continued long enough to obtain an intelli- gent estimate of its possibilities. The ultimate out- come is almost sure to be successful. When Money Stutters. (St. Paul Pioneer-Press.) In Germany the popular American ‘“easy-pay- Iment” plan is called “stuttering” The exact Ger- imfln word for it is “stottern,” which has risen to |good usage and is now to be given recognition in the dictionary as meaning both “to stutter” and to buy on instalments. America prides itself upon facility for coining words and phrases. Is not slang a synonym of the apt and happy speech which rolls so easily off the American tongue? Well, it appears this Nation has Here is Germany fashioning a peculiarly pert and spicy term. Money talks, Americans say. The Germans are still more expressive. They say it stutters when paid out on the instalment plan. It is said there are nearly a thousand varieties of edible mushrooms. And if there were only one poisonous one, some one would pick it.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.) More and more we feel convinced that the Anti- ‘Snluon League has the power to do the cause ‘or temperance a great constructive service—by dis- banding —(Detroit Free Press.) | Another thing human nature can do is to con- vince itself that it's going abroad for culture when it’s really going for drinks.—(Ohio State Journal.) We see by the Anchorage paper where politic- ians are busting out with alibis’ in defense of their recent actions.—(Seward Gateway.)
