DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1022

Out of every 100 bushel* of wheat the Indiana farmer raises, he must sell 30 bushels in Europe. He must sell in Europe 15 of every 100 hogs he markets. With that market prac tically doaas by the new republican tariff bill, it means a glut in the domestic market und lower prices for farm products. Vote for Tyndall. V , ' - ■-.1.. 11 "mee According to Lorado Taft, the Chicago sculptor, the only objects of beauty possessed by the average small town in America are its trees and its girls. However that may be, it remains to be said that even the girls in multitudes of case* mar their beauty by painting their cheeks and powdering their noses.—Goshen Democrat. ■■ 11, ■« Two weeks from today is election. In this county the campaign is on and the candidates are seeking your support. The democrats present a splendid ticket of excellent men, >ach qualified for the position he seeks. They were selected in the primary by a majority of the voters and they deserve your support election day. Opposition to them is made to disrupt the party and for no other reason. Think it over. Senator Jim Watson seems to be ibout the only politician defending the tariff law. Any way his services are in great demand. After saving (?) Indiana he was shot over to Ohio, then on to Rhode Island, New York and other eastern states where the people seem to be disputing his claims that this law which increases living costs from ten to twenty-five per cent and makes a foreign market impossible, is the best ever written. The gentleman may be surprised when he reads the election returns. The Adams County Witness would compare John Tyndall’s record in the state senate with that of Albert Vestal in congress. Fine. You will find a record of votes cast by Tyndall every one for the people he represented and no effort to secure a cent more than his salary for the service. Search not too hard for Albert’* record as to amounts of cash drawn from the government or you will find several items embarrassing to explain. Also Vestal’s vote has been for the tariff and for other measures which are intended to make the middle classes pay the freight. Secretary Wallace is out telling the farmers how congress has helped them, but the trouble is his explanation don’t put any money in their pockets with which to pay their November installment of taxes which have doubled in recent years, or since Goodrich got his new reform tax law into operation. The farmers don’t accept Mr. Wallace’s explanation of the alleged helpful laws. They know that under that emergency tariff bill, with a tariff of 35 cents a bushel on wheat the price dropped down below a dollar a bushel, and the tariff on eggs and butter and other products had no more effect than water on a duck’s back. —Columbia City Post. Henry Ford is a close friend to President Harding which fact makes the following paragraph from his paper, the Dearborn Independent of more than passing interest: “If the President will take a private oath to keep before himself the hundred millions of toiling folk who stretch away north, west and south from Washington, if he will look to them for the verdiet on his work, he can yet recover his administration and perform a service for his country which will enroll his name high up among the list of those who were presidents indeed. There is time, there is opportunity. The question is. Is there courage? D*re the President shake off from him the human and political causes of his failure? Dare he face the enmity of the machine? Why should he fear? —there is nothing more tor him to lose. With the machine, there is nothing that he can gain. His only possible salvation is in an alliance with the people who placed him where he is, and, who mutely wonder why a President ‘sc soon loses touch with them.’’ — o— Terre Haute —Samuel Duncan, col ored, was nailed here today. While he was standing in a shanty some ! unknown person drove a nail through I the roof and into Duncaff’s head, kill I ing hfm. His wife found him, thoughi I he had been hanged, but when sht I found no rope she pulled him down.

YODER □ Justice of the Peace —— Justice of the Peace ■| Constable- Constable M p MM. • ' ~————— — Hurts the Farmer Two years ago this month the Democratic Underwood tariff law had been in effect for six years. ! In May, 1921, an Emergency tariff bill was passed i by a Republican congress and signed by a Republican President. Note how it affects prices of farm products. 5 The figures are furnished by the Department of Agriculture. The first column shows the Democratic prices of October, 1920. The second column shows the prices of the same articles in September, 1922, after the Emergency Agriculture tariff of May, 1921 had been in effect more than a year. The third column shown the rate of duty under the Emergency tariff. Note how prices of all “protected” articles fell under the high tariff: Oct. 1920 Sept. 1922 Tariff Hogs $ 14.71 $ 8.77 Beef Gallic 7,72 6.45 30% Veal Calves 13.31 8.71 30% Sheep 5.50 4.19 $2 head Milch Cows 76.00 48.00 30% Horses 112.00 82.00 Wool 28 .31 15 cis. ’ Wheat 2.14 .88 15 cts. “ Corn 1.21 .63 « 35 cts.

S. reports. MARKETS FOR FARMERS i Out of every 100 bushels of wheat raised in the United States, 30 bushels must be sold in Europe. Out | of every 100 bushels of corn raised, 15 bushels must be I sold in Europe (usually in form of pork.) A high tariff kills foreign trade and destroys for- | eign markets. With no foreign markets for our surplus products, the home market is glutted and prices fall, and farmers suffer. The Democratic party made markets for the farmer and mad.e him prosperous. When the farmer is prosI perous everybody is prosperous. I VOTE FOR PROSPERITY I AND DEMOCRATIC TICKET. ■ (ADVERTISEMENT.)
