THE TARIFF QUESTION IS A LOCAL QUESTION
that stand -In the way ot a re
daction to aero and the obstacles
are not worth presenrins at' the
cost.
With fewer deadlocks, bluffs,
clashes and crises and more com
nionsense and facts the confer
ence at The Hague may amount
to something.
HAIL IO THE CHIEF
v ' The Statesman articles of yesterday on the, tariff bill be
; ' jng, considered in the United States Senate showed that the
tariff, question, besides being a question of national impor
tance is a local question for Salem and the Salem district
' , Very much 30 for our city and section. .
. . . Vitally so for our prune growers and still more so for
, our cherry growers: and concerning practically all of the ag
ricultural; horticultural and live stock interests here,
.v, Here comes another matter of vital concern to cur peo
j,; pie. We find a great importing concern of New York taking
m large advertising ppace in the metropolitan newspapers, at
II; tempting o create public prejudice against the part of the
pending bill which proposes to raise the duty on linens. A
paragraph" of one of. these advertisements reads :'
" ."More than J)8 of the linen you use comes from abroad."
1 The arpal is to the buyer of linens In this country. But
; ' everv reader of The Statesman kflowa that, with adeouate
t w . t f w
liaafvvwttviay v aw m? m w a, vve w sv vviuvv iiiivuu
iii such quantities a3.would jmake it unnecessary" to import
and with the tariff added on a single article, the first co3t of
which was, we will say, 25 cents, the article was priced to
sell to the American consumer at 5. That is a commerce
without a conscience. r;"" :
1 You cannot be astonished that there is complaint from
both American producer and consumer; jYou cannot afford
to destroy American industsy to facilitate an importing trade
like that, Y6u cannot afford to have international exchanges
of a destructive character. .. v :
"We want to trade with the world. I believe it is pos
sible to trade with the world without any destruction of
American productivity. I wish for such an arrangement.
Let us sell things that Americans can produce advantageous-
Iv to those who cannot nroduce them. Let Us buy the thines I There isn't much chance of
that they have to sell to us and which we do not produce." J President Harding glimpsing -fair
"While we are marching in that procession, it always Oregon this rear. Ther mo say
wise to keen in mind those who have difficulty in maintain-1 that congress is bound to keep
ing the face, and the forward moving army must beone of him too busy to think of the Alas
contentment and continued good fortune. If we may have in kan trip he had planned and
America conditions under which men may produce and enjoy without that, a visit to the Pacific
life with something of luxury as well as the necessities, we ast is unlikely. Weil. w cn
shall have a contented dtoenship, arid out of a contented cit- Uar it is a great low on both
izen3hlp comes patriotic CltlZensnp. : - '. sides. The president is missing
a whole lot, while the people out
here, are anxious to pay respects
to a chieftain who is all of that.
Now for those most nseful citi
zens., the r gxwseberrf ; and : straw
berry pickers. -
And. after all, the feet of David
Lloyd George are also made of
clay. Exchange. It is also evi
dent that his head is not all Ivory
or wood.
.Still more new canneries being
built and to be built In Salem.
They will have to come right
along, to keep a couple of Jumps
ahead of the new fruit acreage
and -production.
' any linens at all; yea, in such quantities as to supply this
., wnoie cvuiiirjr. wim vast suuuue lur eAuuri.
M i .It is the old, old story.' Practically every manufactured
article' now fiirnen out in the United State3 has goqe through
. this excfricie: has been supplied from abroad, and ha3 fi-
nally come to be made in this country, after great struggles
. and many failures, ' . . .
It ?s a great fight, that, is going on in Washington on the
! tariff :uest ion the opposition being: supplied with all the
help at the command of the great importing concerns-
And it is a r-ational disgrace that such influences have
so far prevented the passage of the pending will, with its
American valuation feature and the one giving to the Fres
;; ident the authority to raise or lower duties when found too
low or too high. ' ? - :
' " That, President Harding is in earnest in favor of the
bill is well shown in the following excerpts from a speech he
. made on May- 8 before the United States Chamber of Cam
merce at its convention in Washington:
.;; .,1s'! know you are1 interested in world 'restoration." So is
your Government. But I beg to remind you we must always
i be right at home before we can be very helpful abroad. We
do not mean to nold aloof. ; we want to play a great nation s
aye, a great people's part in the, world. I do not' know of
.4anything.that wouldJaelp mora than to give the world an ex
ample of a commercial nation with an abiding conscience.
. -. wonder if you understand just what I mean by that.' Let me
r give you one example, .. S Vfrr&
"We are having the" Problem of tariff legislation. It is
4 not an easy task. I am suf e you know where I stand, because
1 .have spoken officially 16 Congress." V believe in an Ameri
; cati industry first of all in the world. . I do not isrant Ameri
can industry destroyed to build up some other in foreign
lands..- , , ., i ':,'':,.A-';-'- --y'rr-: 'i"--'V . ir.
yA. , An illustration .was brought to the attention of some
., . members of Congress the other day of lmDorts being brought
. into the United States becauseof conditions in the old world
' Let me take a hypothetical figure. ' Imports were brought in,
the primary campaign, the returns
show that in the . rural districts
there has been no slumping of
the prohibition wave and ' that a
great majority of the voters are
in favor of the Volstead law just
as it stands. The result is a rev
elation to throe who imagined
there had been a recession of the
dry ware. .
What will be the "paramount
issue" In 1924? Exchange.
Don't know. But it will likely
bo twins, with several more 'to
carry. There are a doz.4n to a
c ie in the making now, ? ,
The developing - fruit 'industry
will induce the drainage of all
the lands In the Salem district
that ought to be drained. This
will ' douible the production of
those lands, say the drainage ex
perts. They are most conserva
tive. It will make most of the
lands ten to, twenty times more
productive. ; , .
. The . new tribunal of - arbitra
tion disposed of its first case at
New York a week, ago Wednes
day in one hour and 15 minutes.
instead of the three days which
it Is believed it would hare taken
in " a "regular" court, and the
cost to the disputants will be not
over $10. Regular courts should
take notice. ....

The Three Ilunteni
v "There were three- ofj them
- camping' and hunting" together
They bad a canoe, which they had
left safe on the river bank, and
tnen they had made their way
. some distance back Into the
woods.
"One night they, were camping
when they heard, a strange noise;
Bounded like a wan.' Tney listen
ed and it didn't come again, so
they dropped off to sleep, letting
the campfire go' out.
"Long in the middle otthe night
they were all wakened suddenly
by hearing the most v unearthly
sound, right near. They jumped
up. half asleep. Then one of the
men, who had started before the
others, saw a pair ot eyes shining
at him In the dark from a tree,
and the next minute something
t prang at hint! sideswiplng him
with its saw like a thousand of
brick, ami knocking him over.
"Before the thing i could get
right down on him, my dad had
got his gun. He' could make out
the animal plain enough to tire at
it, so he did. It was lucky he took
good aim, for over the puma
mat s what it was went.
" The Camper Is Injured
; "The poor fellow the beast
sprang on was in - a pretty; bad
way. He'd been knocked uncoa
scions, had dislocated his should
er In falling, and had a big gash
across his forehead. - They saw
they'd have to get him back to
town aa soon ag possible. That
meant a long trip, through the.
vrooas in trie aead of night, and
vthe only, flashlight they had. was
out of commission, Just like
' Sam's. - ' . . .. .. r
"Well, the " other, camper said
he remembered they had brought
some candles "along in the pro
visions and he bet he could make
a lantern. He scouted sround and
found a half empty lard pail. He
cleaned It out, and, made a lantern."
Jim Makra The Lantern
Wliile Jim was talking, he took
the wire handle off the lard pail
and put the handle back on the
pall so that one end. was attached
in the regular way and the other
end was attached to the bottom of
the pail. ,, He Joined the w!reto
the bottom by punching a hole in
the bottom with a nan and ham
mer.
Then he took the candle, lit It,
and dropped some ot the grease
on the side of the pail which was
now the. bottom- and stuck the
candle on it. And he had a dandy
reflector lantern.
"And that's the way," says Jim
"they had a light and managed to
pack him through - the woods to
the boat and get him to a doctor
in time to get him fixed up all
right. Here you ar, Sam."
So Sam had a light when he
went home, and he was sure tick
led about it. The rest of ' us are
all making lanterns now, so we'll
have them for camping trios.

THE SHQRT STORY, JR.
At Shlnshape Cabin . -Shipshape
Cab'n was 'lonely. It
had been covered by the snow
drifts all winter, but It had been
able to stand the cold, bleak: wea
ther because all tbe time it had
been looking forward to the glad
spring and. the happy summer.
The, cabin had never known
such a good "time as it had had
last summer, when the Spencers
bought It and Mr. and Mrs. Spen
cer and the four young Spencers
moved In to snend the summer.
They had " promptly ; named it
"Shipshape.! because they declar
ed it was the snuggest little cabin
on the river.. - . . ;. v
And when1 they , had gone away
they announced that as soon as
the weather was : warm . enough
they would come out to spend Sat
urdays and Sundays until the
whole family was ready to move
out for the summer, r The cabin
remembered this Ana could hard-
side, he stopped to search his
pockets for a match. The cabin
was in despair. Here was a hor
rid old tramp about to make trou
ble. Everything had been left so
orderly and neat by the Spencers.
They would be heartbroken if they
came and found things in a
wreck chairs used for firewood,
tin cans lying around, everything
torn and ruined. ' ,'. i
The intruder struck a match- it
went out. He started to strike an-1
other, but dropped Us match.
He stepped forward to find it.
when, without warning, he was
struck in the face by a powerful !
blow that knocked him over. He I
gave a shriek of terror. Jumped !
to his feet; and left the way he
naa come. - .. . - , .. . ; .
: He could not know1,: of course..
that the cabin had . - wrenched i
loose one, of the. boards in ; the
floor, which it let fly and hit him. 1
But the little cabin was ery
proud as It thought ot how ittwaa-j
