Smoot and the Tariff
Mr. Smoot is apparently willing to justify the sins
of his own high tariff by saying it is not high enough,
and that we should go higher to get even with Eng
land.
Mr. Smoot seems to be more interested in the
principle of trying to protect the interest of a few
manufacturing friends than he is in perpetuating the
peace and prosperity of our country. He loses sight
of the fact that if we shut out England's manufac
tured goods, she will shut out our raw materials. Eng
land will produce her own tobacco in her colonies.
She will produceh er button in her own colonies, and
she will get her peanuts from India, the largest pea
nut producing country in the world. Her wheat will
be raised m Australia, Canada and the Argentine.
And once she begins to furnish her own needs, the
market for America's principal cro[>s will be destroy
ed.
We need to kick the politicians out of Congress,
and put statesmen there. So long as-Congress is
dominated by special interest representatives, we
need not look for much relief.
[PEANUTS!
5c per pound
For a limited time, we are willing to exchange our paper
with the people of this county for one of their principal crops—
Peanuts—at what we believe to be a living price for them, 5 cents
per pound. We believe that peanuts are too low and that they
will be higher in price if the farmers will hold them off the mar
ket fot a time. To back our belief, we make this offer to exchange
our paper for your peanuts in payment of your subscription on
a basis of 5 cents per pound for the peanuts.
A3 years Subscription
For 1 Bag of Peanuts
STANDARD SIZE
• *• t
The regular subscription price of the Enterprise is $1.50
per year; a three-year subscription would be $4.50. An average
r ' bag of peanuts at 5 cents per pound would bring you approxi
mate this sum. So, for one bag of peanuts we will allow a three
■ +■
year subscription. No smaller quantity than one bag will be ac
cepted.

Repeating the Words of the Criminal
\ ,
Governor Ritchie of Maryland in criticising the
laws of our country tried to make himself popular by
saying we have too many laws. The governor was
only repeating the words of the criminal in this say
ing. Let the governor come fair with the people,
and say what law should be repealed. Is it the law
against killing, arson, rape, burglarly, stealing, maim
ing, highway robbery, breach of promise,- false pre
tense, reckless driving, perjury, embezzlement or just
what law would he have repealed? The governor
well knows there are many people against all these
laws.
Governor Ritchie's words are treasonous and se
ditious. Let him name the bad law, and he will, of
course, have to confine himself to those he or his
friends want to break or have already broken.
Can Never Win With Raskob
The Hoover administration has evidently done the
Democratic parly much good. But Raskob has, ap
parently hurt' it more than Hoover has hel|>ed it.
The people are demanding a democracy entirely
different from the Raskob principles which are equal
ly as monopolistic and high tariff in ideal as those
advanced by Hoover or any other Republican in the
country.
The Democratic party can never win so lang as
it suffers itself to be chained to such a body of death
as Kaskob.
Restoring Small Town Business
Some of the secrets of restoring small town business,
where it has shown signs of decadence, were pointed
out by Dr. Julius Klein in a recent radio address to be
found in a brisk resolute modernization program for
the stores, the introduction of more rigid efficiency,
remodeling or even transformation of equipment and
arrangements, the installing of stock-control systems,
the careful training of sales people, co-operative ad
vertising, chamber of commerce activity, and the cre
ation or arousal of keener civic consciousness.
One of the most potent weapons available to the
small town merchant, the s|>eaker pointed out, is the
trade-developing power of local advertising media.
"Certainly, intelligently guided publicity and con
sistently vigorous local advertising, especially in
these days of consumer timidity, represent outstand
ing means at the command of the smaller-community
merchant for arousing greater interest in his goods
and attracting customers to his store. —Cadillac
