Republican organs predict disaster. With the present tariff, they say, Europe will again flood our markets with the products of cheap labor, while a depleted purchasing power will force her to abandon our mant- factured products to a large extent. Which, upon the face of it, is a fallacious argument, if for the reason that what cheap labor is left in Europe after the war exacts its toll, will be kept very busy reconstructing Europe. s On the other hand, the democratic claims that by admitting European products on a low tariff, our own manufacturers will be stim- ulated to greater volume and a higher grade of products, etc., etc The fact is that no one knows, or can undertake to predict, the effects, commercially, of the war, either to us or to Europe. There must be new alignments, new coalitions, in trade, as well in politics The main thing for the United States to do is to seize the oppor- tunity to strengthen its trade relations with neutrals, particularly with our South American neighbors, and to increase our facilities tor delivei ing our products in American-owned vessels. That the war must inevitably bring this — is demonstrated by the large increase in American merchandise carriers already shown From a commercial viewpoint this is hardly a seasonable political agitation or “horse- swapping.’ The tariff ts working in a fairly satisfactory manner and should be let alone, at any rate, until we see what kind of a tariff wall the bigger half of the world now at war is going to build around it to encourage its own manufacturers, after peace is declared. Apart from that, however, national politics should be subordinated, for the time being, to concerted effort by all parties to guide the ship of State through the troubled waters which ‘surround it. It's folly to hunt more trouble when there's. plenty on hand. It’s a perfectly safe surmise to say that the American public would be glad to eschew politics altogether for some time, if it could, and de- vote its time to garnering some of the returning prosperity which — is crowding on it, because of, or in spite of, the democratic: administration and the present tariff. A Squint Into the Future OMEN will be bald-headed! They will wear rings on their toes and in their noses! Bells will tinkle on their feet! So says James Henry Ts ate, Jr., of Denver, Colo. Tate professes to have a “gift of tongues” and a “power of healing Certain it is that the gentl:aan has a gift of tongues, for listen to his further remarks: War will last one year, one month, one day, one hour. Churches will fail through ignorance of presence of evil. America will perish. Liquor will never be discarded. Oh, yes, he goes on further, using his wonderful gift of tongues to the extent of two columns, revealing the events of the future—things that are going to happen to us and to our children unto the forty ‘leventh generation. Lightly and cheerfully he dwells upon everything from women’s fashions to world wars. Such prophets, with easy-running, ball-bearinged tongues, are not entirely valueless. For one thing, after we hear what they DO say, we usually know what WON’T happen. sect @ @# *# #8 J Where Lies the Fault? F the attack on the prohibition law initiated and adopted by the vot- ers of Washington should be successful in the courts, it will be because Secretary of State I. M. Howell either deliberately or by gross negligence failed to perform his duties. The chief argument for knocking out the initiative and referendum amendment to the state constitution—and consequently every initiative law adopted since then—is that Secretary of State Howell failed to give the necessary legal notices in the newspapers in the various counties, One man’s neglect or deliberate intent makes a laughing stock the entire state—if the courts should sustain the attack on the prohibition law. only press time for * 2 @ 8 * # & * The law was plain. The secretary of state was to cause publica- tion of notice for 90 days prior to election, Howell didn’t do it in some counties. Why didn’t he? Who knows? cs * * * * Legal Logic . tiga New Jersey court held that, because the Tennessee Coal and Iron company was producing only 1.7 per cent of the steel of the coun- try, the gobbling up or it by the steel trust did not operate to make the latter a combination in restraint of trade. The lesson is obvious. Let any monopoly ruin the business of a competitor to the extent of crowding it down to 1.7 per cent of the busi- ness, and it can be swallowed legally. THE TENNESSEE COMPANY OWNED ORE RESERVE IN THE UNITED STATES. That, and not its business was what the steel trust bought. That was made by nature, and by right belongs to the whole people. But if it was not yielding more than 1.7 per cent of the manufactured steel of the country, even inough it might make a perfect monopoly an assured fact when the Lake Superior reserves are worked out, ‘it did not make the steel trust a monopoly in re- straint of trade! Such is Jersey court logic.
