BUSINESS BAROMETER.
(By Savoyard.) -
Articles fashioned from iron and
steel are of universal consumption.
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.
