ARRESTED: CEl
OUR FOREIGN FORTUNE HUNTERS
THE supporters of Mr. Hughes are making much noise
over tlie protection oi our citizens who betake them
selves from this country in pursuit of fickle fortune. It is
a theory that appeals to our sentiments and is a likely sub
ject for noisy patriots.
There are two sides to the question. To illustrate, take
the example of two Americans, Jones and Brown. Uoth
were born, say in the state of Oregon. Jones remains in
Oregon. He builds a home and reai-s a family. He devotes
his ability and energy to building up an American com-1
uiunity and raising and educating a family of American
citizens.
Brown has the itch for sudden wealth and leaves .the
civilized and intelligent people of Oregon and goes, say to
Central America, where the people are untutored and ig
norant and oppressed. By a small expenditure he has
secured a large tract of land and he improves it with poorly
paid peon labor. He basks in
while ignorant peons, toil lor a mere pittance. .
The time comes when the peons, realizing their lands
are. being taken by foreigners and that they are slaves to
the land owners, revolt and attack Brown's hacienda and
dest roy his crops.
.Brown appeals to lus government to protect him, winch
seizes Jones, puts a rifle in
and sends him down to attack the revolutionists who are
worrying J.rown.
Th(! question arising in the mind of a sober patriot is
this: Is it just to compel Jones, who is an American resi
dent as well as a citizen, ,who
builder and helper, to leave his home and tanuly to help
Brown, who preferred another country and its opportun
ities.
War with Mexico would simply mean that the people
who make this country what it is would he compelled to
lay down their lives in defense of adventurers who weut
abroad to "get rich quick."
Hut the political snysters, plutocratic thieves and hom
icidal imbeciles try to cover it up bv tragic shouting about
upholding the flag and avenging insults to the honor of the
nation.
In the last analysis the
fighters will declare that
develop foreign countries, are building up our foreign
trade, and we must have increased foreign trade to main
tain prosperity. So it is not protection to our infant indus
tries, after all, that makes prosperity, but foreign trade
that we may be called upon to sacrifice thousands upon
thousands of brave young men to secure.
lii other words, the plutocracy of this country stands
ready to sacrifice the lives of
change for dollais gleaned from foreign trade. This is the
best they can hold out to us as the culmination of fifty
years of nearly unbroken republican administration.

Straws Stow
Motorists buy a certain make of tires for the
first time because it is sold to them through
advertising, salesmanship, or the good words of j
satisfied users. ,
. But motorists continue to buy that make of tire
only because the first tires have made good
have given satisfactory mileage and service.
Motorists bought United States Tires so consist-'
ently that, during the first seven and one-half
months of this year, we sold and delivered more
tires than during the entire twelve months of
last year.
And motorists are continuing to buy United
States Tires at the same phenomenal rate.
If straws show which way the wind blows, such
phenomenal sales increases certainly show where
the best tire service comes from.

"The season of 191b' was remark
