Hj' i J able to make up their minds regarding details

A raising. War was declared on the Gth of April
J , ivo months ago and nothing but time has thus
vj far bocn killed with American rifles, Thu ex-
fj penso of tliese idle hours in the rlflo factories
will fall on the taxpayer, because of the foolish

TIME IS NOW UPON US FOR THINKING IN
NATIONAL TERMS.
The coal car supply has been inadequate
throughout the Northwest and Judge Lovett,
United States transportation djrector, is send
ing cars there in Inrgc numbers-in fact, in such
large numbers as to threaten a hardship upon
consumers of the Middle West, who through
their stntc councils of defense arc emitting the
well known yell of opposition to the plan, claim
ing that the government is filling one gap and
making another.
It would seem, however, that as winter sets in
earlier In the Northwest than in most portions
of the Middle West, that it is proper thnt the
needs of thnt section of the country be first
looked nfter. If the thing is graded properly,
the cars can be returned in time to help out the
situation In the Middle West.
The point is, thu distribution must be along
scientific grounds, with no partisanship or fa
voritism guiding the operation. It would be un
wise to take virtually all the coal cars from the
Middle West, as it is claimed some railroads are
doing, though some can be spared for a short
while if necessary to prevent hardship in the
Northwest.
This is a situation in which we must think in
national tonus, not bounded by states or locali
ties. And distribution of cars must be guided
by the same principle.

NUMEROUS NATIONAL HIGHWAYS SOON
TO TRAVERSE THE COUNTRY.
Refore thu invention of the rnllroad the Wash
ington government was a groat believer in good
highways, and millions of dollars were spent up
on socallcd "national highways" and canals. Hut
with the development of railroading government
construction of such roads went in abeyance for
more than eighty years until now.
Thu government is helping all states to con
struct better ronds by paying a portion of the
cxpensu if thu states meet certain requirements.
Not only thnt, but a general system of universal
national highways are being planned and exe
cuted, partly through the efforts of associations
interested in highway improvement.
The Lincoln highway, the Piko's Peak coast to
coast highway, the Columbin River highway, the
Dixie highway, thu Midland trail and others in
dicate clearly that thu nation is thinking na
tionally in road construction. '
It is not loo much to expect thnt within the
next ten years tho country will bo traversed by
great trunk highways to exceed the number of
trunk railroads now existing. It will be a nnt
ural and logical development.
William McKinlcy's wisdom has been once
moru attested. Prior to 1800 we produced no
tinplate, but depended upon Europe, just ns we
have always depended upon Europe for our dye
stuffs. McKinley believed that the United
States should make its own tinplate, and be in
dependent of Europe. He put n protective ratu
in his tariff bill and immediately we began to
build up a tinplate industry. Democrats had de
clared that a protective duty meant a higher
nrlcti for tin, but thu new Industry grew so rap
Idly that home competition reduced the price.
If the democrats had been given their way wo
would still bu buying tin in Europe. If thu re
publicans had been ns wise in legislating for
dyos as they wore In legislating for tin, we would
not havo been embarrassed whon the war cut
off trade with Germany. Never again will wo
place ourselves in a position where severance of
communication with Germany will cause us seri
ous difficulty.
Thore are many jveople who profess to see a
declaration against a protective tariff in Presi
dent Wilson's remark that "no peace can rest
securely upon political or economic restrictions
meant to benefit some nations and cripple and
embarrass others." Tho American protective,
tariff policy tloes not comu in that classification.
Our tariff Is designed to lenefit America, but is
not designed to cripple anybody. If nntlons in
Europe and Asia chooso to encourage low wage
scales and low standards of living, that is en
tirely their affair. Wo proposo to maintain high
wage scales and high standards of living. In
order to tlo that, wu must, in normal times, im
pose an import duty which will cover at least the
difference In cost of production hero and abroad.
Free trade means giving other nations an ad
vantage and thu crippling of our home industries.
Wo do not propose to crlpplo any other peoplo
nor let them crlpplo us.
Price River Valley users of water under the
Price River Irrigation system should turn out
en masse to the meeting called by thu state land
bonrd next Wednesday evening. Tho thing is to
tell these board members just what Is wanted.
Nothing Is over gained by holding back. Local
securities are good for many times what is now
owing nnd may be nsked for in addition.
Price citizens desire the presence of everyone
w ho can possibly come to be here and participate
In the farewell program to the boys who go to
tho war nuxt Thursday. It is not a Price affair
alone, but one of tlio entire county. Tlio invito
tation is a wholehearted one.
Big coal land deals In Carbon county are so
common as to cense to bring forth comment. It
won't bo long until locnl payrolls at the coal
mines nnd railroad towns of Carbon county,,nro
greatly in excess of th'present seven millions
of dollnrs annually. ' "
If anybody should nsfc you, congressmen and
senntore at Washington, D. C, are just now sup
posed to be enrnlng their salaries.
Patriotism doesn't' have to be stirred up in
Price. It is here without stirring.
Pullman porters now make the call "fint draft
for dinner." ,
