IIS.?Already la tome of the
States the "robber tariff te to be
attacked and made much of aa an
i issue by the candidates In opposition
to the dominant party. The
indications are many and clear
that other Democratic candidates
will follow suit. Signs of It have
"w been given In tt)e preliminary out's,
burets of nominees of that party
J oat In West Virginia. The average
candidate (or office knows notbt

the one general fact which has

Dill and If it is going to prove a
"robber tariff, aa the Democratic
politicians are already characterizing
it in advance of Its actual
operation, pretty much all West
Virginians who expect to benefit
from it cannot escape the indict*
ment of belonging to the "robber"
band and enjoying their proportlonate
share of the loot.
By far the greater part of the
people of West Virginia including
all party creeds, are favorable to
a tariff that is constructed on a
foundation of protection prfhciple.
Elections during many years with
tariff as the issue have abundantly
proven it. It had once upon a
time a Democratic governor who,
after his election of course, turn*
ed out to be a protectionist. He
came to Washington to appear be*
fore the ways and means committee
to advocate the application of
the protective principle to West
Virginia products, raw and manufactured.
No Republican made a
better argument for it that year
than he did.
In so rar as West Virginia is
concerned, the new tariff pay be
said to be a West Virginia protective
tariff law. That it is such,
is not due to accidental circumstances,
the result of chance, or
the gambling outcome of a blind
fate. It was due to design, hard
work, daily industry, and resourcefulness
covering a period of
well over a year of two West Virginians
who were so placed in the
way of committee assignments as
to have a hand in the construction
of this now tariff law. Full credit
should be given them for the decidedly
important part they played,
and it Is accorded them by
those who are conversant with the
origin and long-drawn-out period
of development of tlie McCumberFordney
tariff law. These two
West Virginians are Senator Howard
Sutherland and Representative
George M. Bowers of the
Second district. The former as
member of the Senate finance
committee and the latter is a mem
her of the ways and means committee
of the House, headed more
than one sub committee that
wrote the schedules covering cortain
basic and correlated products,
in addition to passing on
each and every item In the lengtlily
revenue-raising and industry
and labor protecting law. While
