AVe say it again, and with empha
sis, the doors of America are wide
open to foreign commerce, and when
the war is over and the wheels of in
dustry in Europe are again turning
to their full capacity of production,
there will be nothing to prevent the
United States from becoming the
dumping ground for the goods of the
great nations at war, unless the vic
ious tariff system now in force is re
pealed and protection restored, it
all imports be put upon th- free list,
is not necessary to an open door that
all imports be put upon the free list.
The present administration has gone
far in that respect and doubtless
would go farther were it not for the
requirements of revenue, but there
still remains a respectable number of
products upon which duties are pay
able. The moment, however, that
tariff rates are lowered below the
point of protection they cease to be
a barrier or check to importations,
and become, to the contrary, an in
vitation to the outlander to come in
and welcome. That is the effect and
the purpose ot the Underwood tariff
act, and the fact that we are not now
reaping all the evil consequences of
that measure is due to the temporary
suppression of the manufacturing in
dustries of Europe.
When the war is over and the acci
dental protection from foreign manu
factures that the conflict has given
us ceases to exist, the competition for
American trade will be active and
ruthless. The purchasing power of
the markets of Europe will be great
ly decreased. America, bulging with
gold, will be the world's oyster, not
to be opened with a Pistolian sword,
for it is already open. The salesmen
of Germany and France, and ol every
other one of the countries that have
goods to sell will cross the seas in
numbers, and the present tariff will
not keep them from making prices
that American producers cannot meet
without loss. This will not come im
mediately after the war ends, for it
will take some time to restore Indus
will take some time to restore indus
rial activities in Europe, but it will
come, unless the people of America
take steps to prevent the attack upon
our trade and our riches. St. Louis

In a speech before the St. Louis
Club recently, Gifford Pincliot,
of Philadelphia, former chief Uni
ted States forester, favored prepar
edness on the part of this country
and said, "World peace will remain
a dream if Germany wins. The Ger
man people are governed by a mili
tary caste whose God is power. The
German ruling class hates us of the
United tSates as bitterly as it hates
the English. If Germany wins, a
people who do not understand our
thought will be dominant in the
world and we shall have to meet
their views or their arms."
Pinchot then pictured the attitude
of the allies in the event of their vic
tory. We need fear nothing, he said,
as the power of the world would be
distributed as before.
The speaker counseled against al
lowing the United States to sink to
the level of China, the prey of any in
ternational buccaneer. He recom
mended the system of military train
ing practiced by the Swiss. The
present system in the United States
he styled as too expensive per man.
Pinchot closed his speech with a
tribute to the allies, saying:
"The allies are fighting the fight of
civilization and democracy; fighting
Speech by T. J. Mahoney before
Annual Convention of Oregon Wool
growers Association at Pendleton.
In seeking a topic on which to ad
dress you today, I was impressed
with a question that is attracting the
attention nd occupying the minds of
the thinking people of the world to
day. That it is one that may be ap
plied intelligently to the business in
which you are engaged is my firm be
lief.
In this period of World War, we
stand aghast, as the greaest of the
neutral nations, shocked beyond
words of expression at the wanton
waste of human lives, and man's ma
terial achievements and next we
marvel at the wonderful efficiency
of one of the warring nations. So
much has been said and written of
the efficiency of everything that is
German, that it has placed a new
value on the word and brought home
to us the noticeable shortcomings of
Americans in efficiency, and what
naturally follows economy.
It is claimed that the expert appli
cation of the principles of efficiency
would increase our national wealth
twenty-fold. An analysis of waste in
all lines of human endeavor, com
pared with the economics in nature,
makes the thinking man believe this
statement.
Efficiency is not a new thought, but
it is the all-absorbing thought of to
day because it has come to be a neces
sity.
It has been demonstrated by the
stockmen of our country, who by in-1
telligent breeding have brought the
sandard of flocks and herds to a point
that is not excelled by the breeders
of the older nations of the world. I
have not chosen this as my subject
today because you as wool-growers
are wholly lacking in the application
of efficiency, but rather that you, who
have tried and proved its worth in a
few tilings, may use it to the advan
tage of yourselves and your com
munities in many things; thus
spreading this doctrine among our
people.
What is efficiency? It is to put to
use those methods that enable us to
do the things that we are doing, bet
ter witli less waste of time, energy
and materials. It means economy
in time, in energy and in money. Its
intelligent application to the business
of the day means a degree of success,
the degree depending on how well it
has been applied.
Take the life history of 1,000 suc
cessful men; they are nearly the
same. Each has to a degree above
the average man saved his time, his
energy and has worked for a definite
result.
On the other hand, the life history
of 1,000 paupers in the State of New
York is a history of a man without
methods, without a definite object in
life, and with no appreciation of the
value of time and energy.
We find in our national affairs that
efficiency is lacking. It Is said that
any firm, corporation or individual
can build and construct cheaper than
the national government or the state
or municipality. I am afraid that is
too true. But why? Lack of efficiency,
but we do not need to go to the gov
ernment to find our examples. In
passing it might be well to remark
that when the car in Europe is over
the competition among the foremost
nations for the trade and commerce
of the world will be such that only
those who have efficiency, practice
economy and thrift will be able to
stand in the front ranks in the com
mercial war that will follow.
Coming to our own vocation, the
methods that improve conditions in
the nation and state are equally val
uable in our own affairs in fact the
state and nation copies after the peo
pie and not the people after the state
and nation. As sheepmen we believe
that the efficient way to revise the
tariff is by a Non-Partisan Tariff
Commission.
We believe that the time is not
distant when this will be accomplish
distant when this will be an accom
plished fact; that we are about to be
rewarded for the efforts of our em
cient labors. That the sheep business
as a profitable and permanent bust
ness will then be established. This
being so it calls for us to put our
business on a permanent basts to
lay out our plans and to build for the
future. It has been said that the
sheepman has always been crowded
to the out-posts. This is true, as
grazing lands have advanced in value
the sheepman has met these condb
tions by seeking cheaper lands. Now

we are at the last out-post and we j
must meet the question of higher
priced gracing lands, either this or I
we are going out of the sheep busi-
less.
We must practice economy, guard
against unnecessary w aste, l.y grail -
lal degrees increase the productive
ness of our ranches, and by more care
in the selection of our breeding end
of the game. I have heard men boast
that their banker knew better how
they stood than they did. Its alright
fur your banker to know all about
our standing; If he don't he won't
stay in the banking business very
long, but it is also a good thing to
know from year to year how you
tand yourself. Take a balance sheet
of your condition at least once a year,
and compare from year to year how
your business is going. It will show
you a wonderfully clear Insight to
your business. Somehmg that you
are doing at a loss will show up to
astonish you, and some of the small
things you have thought hardly
worth while will show you a hand
some profit.
I believe that it will be demon
strated that sheep can be raised prof
itably as heretofore, and while I be
lieve that the time is coming if It is
not already here, when the sheepman
will have to own his own ranch; I
firmly believe that with more efficient
management, truer economy, and
closer attention to the business from
all angles, that the honorable busi
ness of raising mutton to feed, and
wool to clothe the people, has a
brighter future ahead than ever be
fore, and it means success to you in

sheep country,
Internal taxation was proposed ns
the means of providing the money
necessary for the national defense

gested are Incomes, gasoline, naph

tension of the war revenue bill and
continuance of the present tarilT on
sugar are recommended. The sale of
bonds is oposed.

ESSENTIA l POINTS IX PKKSI
DENT'S MESSAGE.
The theme of President Wilson's
message, is national preparedness-
preparedness by the United States to
defend not only its own independence
but the rights of those with whom it
has made common cause.
Every recommendation embodied
in the document has tp do with the
comprehensive plan for straighten
ing the national defenses. The pro
gram includes army and navy plans
already made public; legislation for
government-owned merchant ships;
a rural credit law; the Phillipine and
Porto Rico bills which failed of final
passage at the last session; conser
vation legislation; federal aid for in
dustrial and vocational education,
and the creation of a commission to
inquire into the transportation prob
lem. A docrlne of Pan-Americanism
of full partnership of the nations of
the western hemisphere in world
affairs is proclaimed.
Naturalized and native-born Amer
icans who, sympathizing with hellig
erants abroad, have plotted to violate
their country's neutrality, are scath
ingly denounced as men who "have
poured the poison of dsloyalty Into
the very arteries of our national life."
and congress is urged to provide ade
quate federal laws to deal with such
offenders. "Such creatures of pas
sion and anarchy must be crushed
out," says the president.
