"I do not think you can fail to s v

The market problem, Mr. Meredith

STORY OF A CAN OF BEEF
How a Democratic Tariff Affects One Oregon Industry.
From the Oregonian, October 8, 1920
HARPER.. Or., Oct. 4. (To the
Editor.) The writer is a
merchant, doing business at
Harper, Or. Harper is a town locat
ed in the center of the headquarters
ranch of Miller & Lux, the largest
cattle outfit on the coast, if not in
the United States.
Last week I ordered from Swift
& Co., Boise, among other goods, a
case of one-pound cans of corned
beef. Today they came, and this
was what we.read:
COMPANIE

"ARGENTINE
Argentine beef in the heart of the biggest cow camp
in Oregon! And I was going to vote for Chamberlain.
But no more. I have never met Mr. Stanfleld, and I
have Mr. Chamberlain. I like him for his pleasant per
sonality and his hundred-per-cent American stand for
our boys. He is welcome to my cakes and ale, but not
my bread and butter.
' Here are all my customers loaded up with cattle they
cannot sell. We put a million pounds of as good wool as

spring, and cannot get a dollar on
it, and our' paternal administration
v is offering cape and Australian wool
for sale every day. Our warehouse
is full of pelts and hides which the
dealers will not even allow us to
ship to them, because the pelts and
hides are not worth the freight.
Every ship is bringing in more Ar
gentine stuff to make conditions
worse for us.
We talk of the league of nations
and wet and dry. We are chasing
the shadow and ignoring the real
issue, which is, for us, Shall we have
five-cent wool and two-cent beef
again, as we had in the good old Cleveland days?
Five thousand such republicans as I was could stay
at home on November 2 and not hurt the chance of
Harding and Sinnott in the state or district. But in
the senate we have a majority of two, and one of those,
(God save the mark!) is LaFollette. That is where
an Oregon republican is going to have the chance to
make his vote count in this election. Thacan of beef
showed me wherein my duty lay.
