RESTRICTIONS
WASHINGTON, Sept. jC The
Btato department today sought to
learn through diplomatic channels the
nature of tho goods Included In Clroat
Itrltaln'B luteal blockade restrictions
on Bhlpmonts from tho Tolled States
to Holland and thu Scandinavian
countries. If the action is found to
shut off any great quantity of Amer
ican trndo with these neutral coun
tries, It doubtless will bo regarded
seriously by tills government.
Interest In tho effect of the order
is enhanced at this time because Pres
ident Wilson was granted authority
by recent legislation to retaliate
against countries Interfering unduly
wllh American commerce.
rriio state department old Is Inter

GRAVE-ROBBING
jM'jMtA I Vi politicians arc desecrating tneir own
L graveyard. Frantic because of the failure of their
campaign as a last resort, they are exhuming the putrid
and rotted corpse of the old mascot, they once called "pro
tection and prosperity" that was buried in 1907, at which
time the public were given about sixty successive holidays
to enable tJiein to indulge m fitting services and lamenta
tions over the noblest take 01 American polities.
But the boys and bosses as a last resort will resurrect
the bones, hoping that the dangling skeleton of a once
darling child, properly set off with ghost dancing in the
background, reinforced with several bar Is in the reception
room, may yet stem the tidal wave of intelligent reasoning
tnat imperils t lie existence ol tne republican party. They
will only near tne voice too late, too late!
But what of that old shibboleth, protection and pros

gant money lords in free America, who, through their pol
itical agents tit the republican party, said to the great
American public, "let us make the tariff or you can't work
let us make the laws or you starve." The people
yielded. And then came the strike at Lawrence, Mass., and
tlie congressional investigation, which proved that even
when we let tne over-lat, moncy-stiil red -trust magnates
write the tariff Jaws down to the last letters that the labor
ers in the highest protected industries were not paid
enough wages to prevent hunger. While these American
peons of highly protected industries were gothiijf about
7' a week, laborers in the building and other unprotected
trades were getting from $10 to $10 a week as journeyman
laborers.
The first class was protected by a republican tariff,
guaranteeing and warranting high wages to come through
the generosity and justice of the employing corporations,
but the secojid class had no protection but their labor or
ganizations and their willingness to fight for justice with
their employers, and were against the courts of tlie land
and their injunctions. .
One class relied on republican promises and starved,
the other class relied on their own manhood and resources
and fared far better.
The American people have learned, labor has been edu
cated by experience. The republicans had better leave
that grave, made in 1907, undisturbed.
The memory of that long period of enforced mourning
ana lamentation curing tne long, dreary, lachrymal holi
days in the autumn of 1907 is an unpleasant recollection,
even at. this late day, and besides the rattling of those
bones would be unkind, most unkind to Teddy.
PROTECTING THE BABES
ANEW laWjgoes .into effect in California October 1 for
bidding the sale of milk that has not been pasteur
ized or certified.
Pasteurization consists in killing with heat the micro
scopic organisms and germs of disease, without using more
heat than needed, so as not to injure the milk. The milk is
heated uniformly to 140 or .145 degrees for twenty min
utes, then cooled quickly.
Certified milk is that from cows that have passed tlie
test for tuberculosis.
The Jaw is a good one and a similar law is needed in
Oregon, for it has been demonstrated that tuberculosis and
other gcrin .diseases are transmitted through the milk.
Tests made in Los Angeles recently showed that twenty
three out of twenty-four guinea pigs inoculated with milk
from tubercular cows contracted the disease, while pas
teurized milk did not transmit the disease.
Nathan Straus recently announced that none of the
2500 New York babies fed on pasteurized milk from his
depots contracted infantile paralysis.
Gilson Gardner, whose Washington correspondence has
peared for several years in the Mail Tribune, is not ai
has
tppeared lor several years in the Mail Tribune, is not an
employe of the democratic publicity bureau, as locally
alleged, nor has he any affiliations with any party organ
ization. I le is employed by a newspaper syndicate, known
as the Newspaper Enterprise association", of which the
Mail Tribune is a member, to cover national news not car
ried in press dispatches, lie is 'one of the most reliable and
best known special correspondents at the nation's capital
and exposed the Ballinger-Taft scandal, that resulted in
Mr. Ballingcr's resignation. He is an ardent admirer and
close friend of Theodore Roosevelt and in politics' a progressive.
It in estimated Hint 2000 persons
visited Knarine; Cnmp nt Ihe armory
last night. As early as 7:o0 the
crowd was thick ti round tlie gaming
tables iiiul tliev reluctantly left at
midnight. Several times the banks
of the various ganics were nearly bro
ken by seirsutiitually lucky pluuircrs.
Winnings, however, were soon dissi
lulled on Ihe dance floor, nt the O. K.
restaurant, where multitudes of hot
dogs were consumed, uml nt the Wed
lo:r saloon.
Hue to watchful tactics on the part
of Seventh company members who are
running Ihe show, there lias not been
a single violent shooting scrape in the
place, and neither have there been
any of the suicides usual with un
lucky gamblers. The gume is straight
mid there seems to be no excuse for
getting downhearted.
