Durham, N. C, Sept. 2 The Bar
bee case continues through today
with the state attempting to develop
a case of positive identification of
the prisoner and destruction of the
alibi that Barbee is going to set up
when his witnesses go on.
Until court convened this morning
there wasn't much strong testimony
against the defendant. Iverson Wil
liamson, a smart negro, gave positive
evidence that, he saw Barbee on the
night of the murder.

five American manufacturers, because
each of them is selling his wares
cheaper to foreigners than to Amer
ican consumers throughout the three
hundred and sixty-live
year.
The fact that an industry regularly
sells its products abroad at lower
domestic prices not only shows that
the industry is overprotected, but
that the American consumer is being
made the victim or something similar
to a confidence game by being over
charged. Evidence from a variety of sources,
official and unofficial, from publica
tions and directly from actual busi
ness transactions, shows clearly that
t he practice of selling protected Amer- j
lean goods cheaper abroad than at
home, has become a general business
custom. It is reasonably certain that
the great bulk of American manufac
tured goods, amounting to practically
$490,000,000 for the year ending
June 30, 1908, not counting the crude
or partially manufactured goods, are
sold to foreigners at prices much
lower than those prevailing in
United States. Except in rare cases
these goods are not sold at a loss.
This discrimination against the Amer
ican people has cost them incalculable

the moment it asks an unreasonably
high price, the consumer, having the
entire world as a marketplace, Is free
to buy of the steel trust's competitor.
In America the high tariff wall keeps
the steel trust's competitor out of the
market, leaving the consumer, high
and dry, at the mercy of the monopoly.
