They enter into the economy of every household and of every individual citi zen, even the babe in arms. Hence, it is no fiction that the iron and steel in dustry is the infallible barometer of trade. When dearth is in the field, when the mart is empty, when the bay is shiplessv when retrenchment is im perative, the Ares in the steel mill arc not lighted and the sound of the trip hammer is not heard. The wage of labor is reduced and the ranks of the unemployed are swelled. Indeed ours is the iron age. 'The American .people are the most enormous producers and the most prodigal consumers of iron and its re solvents in the world. For fifty years we have been told that the iron indus try of the United States cannot possi bly exist without a protective tariff levied to secure it in the home market against the predatory paupers of for eign parts. But for more than half a century our congress invited our iron and steel manufacturers to come forward and write in our tariff laws the degree oi protection the ywished. Long ago the Republican party set the fashion that congress should shirk its constitution al duty and abdicate its legislative privilege to write our tariff laws; The wool manufacturers wrote Schedule "K" the cotton spinners wrote the cotton schedule, the drug men wrote the chemical schedule, the sugar men the sugar schedule and son on and so forth to the end of the chapter. Neith- er Nelson W. Aldrich nor Sereno E. Payne knew what was in that mon strosity that is called the Payne-Al-drich tariff. ' : The people tired of that and deter mined to. force their government to di vorce itself from "Big Business." To that end Woodrow Wilson was elect ed president and. a congress Demo cratic in both houses was chosen in 1912. They immediately set to work and fashioned a tariff bill not for the few 'of our people who eat taxes, but for the many who pay taxes. The manufacturer was given free raw ma terials end told to compete with pau pers from all quarters. ' And then the cry was calamity! The poor, undone iron industry was to shut up shop. .We were to spin no more wool or cotton; we were to cease tanning hides into leather or fashioning anything from . leather. Sheep and cattle were to starve in rich pastures, coal mines were to close, railroads were to haul nothing as there was to be nothing to haul, banks and trust companiesrere to go into liquidation. These were only a few the disasters and afflictions that were to overtake our country because of a wicked Democratic tariff. Beware of false prophets. How about iron and steel? In the month of February our production of pig iron was at the rate of 39,200,000 tons a year and that is the highest ever known in any'country in the world Nor is that all. At the end of Febru ary the United States Steel corpora tion had unfilled orders reaching to the stupendous Totals of 8,568.000 toi's, a figure heretofore unequaled, in its history. Mark you, the price of steel was steadily advancing because of the fart thnt our mills were physically in adequate to the demands and during the month of February the increase in orders amounted to 646,199 tons. March beat February with orders for 9,331,001 tons, and April beat March with orders for 9,829,551 tons and the tide is still rising, the flood of -. which seemingly is far in the future. During the month of April the United States "Steel Corporation delivered from its mills finished products amounting to 51,000 tons daily, and the orders exceeded the shipment by about 20,000 tons. ' Now these arc not war orders, and all the war orders placed in our coun try do not amount to 5 per cent of the total of industrial business. MISFITS Please, Mr. Weather, be good dur ing Chautauqua. Carrania evidently did not celebrate the Fourth of July. We. were in hopes he would touch off bomb 'at close quarters. A popular resort the border. At least a good many have gone there to spend the summer. Young men who make a practice of spending alt they make should read the following: Of persons more than 65 years old 97 per cent are dependent on relatives, friends or charity. " Only 25 per cent of the 23,000,000 families in the United States own their own homes. The others are rent ers. The country needs a school of thrift. Many declare that they are going to have a good time while they can; but the good time is generally full of holes md the end is disappointment and poverty. The good time is all right, but the method is often all wrong. It look as if after a while round-ups -ill be as common as Chautauquas. with one in every place of concern. Carranza was a pretty prompt cor respondent. Much quicker than Emperor Frani Joseph, who forgot to write. Looking into the back office of the Corvallts Gazette-Times while in that :ity the Fourth, Misfits discovered why the editor soars so high occa sionally. He has a gallery half way iround the room for spectators to his flights. The president is commander and chief of the U. S. army and navy and should be backed by every loyal Am erican citizen in his work as such. Some Sale. A cackage from Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, together with her autograph, direct from the White House, Wash ington, D C, will be sold along with others at a "Parcels Post Sale" in the basement of the Baptist church, Fri day evening, July 7, at 8 p. m. Rose burg Sentinel. The Pendleton Style. One of the Pendleton bays says, "from the way people treat us they must think (hat we dress and act like this at home." As a matter of fact many of the Pendleton boys are busi ness men, just like rou and I, but hap pen to be proficient at some wild west line and are down here principally to have a good time. From the way they spend money the economical calam ity howlers can rest assured that they won t take anything out of the town. Ashland Tidings.
