"horrible example" of . what the new tariff schedule will mean to the consumer is its effect on the prices of straw hiits. The new tariff imposed a duty of $3.50 a dozen plus 50 per. cent, ad' valorem on inijwrtod straw hats. That means next year's "hay kelly" will cost from 'seventy five cents to $1 more thniv a hat of equal' costs this year. But why confine the "horrible" examples"' to' 'straw hats? Everything e'lsc included in the tariff schedules will, be af-fecte3-:tKea jiess for the consumer when it-doubles prices' without boosting wages at the same rate. Who will get the diference between the old and the new prices ? , Will the workers, in American hat factories get the lion's share, or any share at all ? ; Higher prices for protected comntadities are inevitable.' It., is now up to the government and . the protected mnnufiicturers to guarantee public benefits through' increased employment, higher .wages and fair prices.; . ; , . ' !

The first official census total for La Grande leaves this city thirty less than eight thousand with two days remaining for final check. Several new naWes were reported to. The Observer this morning., We need twenty or thirty more to be sure the total goes 6ver the eight thousand mark. Many whose iegul residence is actually La Grande cannot be credited to this city under strict census rules. ' Sheep: herders,, for example, who are now in the. hills with their charges may count this city as their home but they are enumerated merely as residents of Union county. Men working on the highway 'and sleeping at the construction camps. nay be La Grande citizens but the census says they live where they sleep at tho Jime the enumerator finds thent- and credit goes only to Union county. Approximately two hundred normal" school fatudents are actual citizens of this city most of the year, but they are listed in tho census as residents of other communities. The count, therefore, is low. It is disappoint ingly low; but La Grande has much company for .consola tion. What we need most is thirty residents who have been missed so that they may be added and bring the total over 8000. many; deaths UNNECESSARY CHIEF SAYS (Coiiilnuotl from PiiRf) Ono) 1)11111 Hii)tllcH, ii ml tlnlo out ; inn IliUltltloil In, kiiiiiiIh. vNuw t tint Aiiuim.iilmV.iuil.ttinc In ;think over tho teiTlhlir nlttht, 8tni -He'CHi.H iluxfd hy tho-I'Xlent of tho tvnwcdy.

TiiIch of IIci-uImii Til II V IIIDVT MAKIIV CANADA GETTING ON No milioii in the world today is muking moro'i'npid projfreas Hum the Dominion of Cimndu. Since the World war, Cnnndu liiis changed from an almost wholly utrriculturul Country to a land of industry. Itmldine- industries have .spinnp up in ' uie provinces thai are beirinnmo; to make a respectable show inj. With this industrial development there has come an interest in world trade. The dominion's export trade now exceeds a billion dollars n year, and it is sijtnificMnt that only a third of that is in raw materials. Miniii"; is the future industry of Canada. t lias unlimited sources of the finer metals and coal, and is developing them at a creditable rate. They represent future prosperity. These are facts of interest for every citizen of tlie United SUites. The Dominion is our best customer in the world market, so her prosperity is our prosperity. Moreover we feel j; kindly regard and neighborly pride and sympathy for our neighbor to the north. Europe would find such feelings uncomprehensihle. Over there a growing, prospering country Mg looked upon with envy and misgivings by all its neighbors. To thum it mnaii. lutes a threat which must be eradicated at all costs, usually by war. Such thoughts are wholly foreign to North Ameri- cans, which explains the century plus of peace along tho international boundary. . . .
