St. Joseph, Mo., Sept. 17.—High
protective tariff was denounced by
Governor Thomas it. Marshall, dem-
ocratic nominee for vice president,
in a Bpeech here last night. He de-
clared the policy “gave tariff bene-
ficiaries a monoply on products
and free trade on labor.’’ The
Governor said:
“impressed as 1 have always
been from the moral and constitu-
tional viewpoints of the injustice of
the high protective tariff. 1 have
not wasted much time in studying
its practical workings. Revelations,
startling in their character, force
themselves upon us, however. These
revelations furnish economic rea-
sons in abundance for a change.
“Take the argument that the high
protective tariff has been maintain-
ed for the benefit of the American
workingman. What do the facta
disclose? They disclose that we

The Harris Trust & Savings Rank
of Chicago entered the successful
bid for the 1198,000 of bonds sold
by the city council at the meeting
last night. The bid was for par and |
accrued interest to date of delivery
and a premium of $1,319.
There were five bidders on the
bonds, and two others offered great-
er premiums, but each of them bid
on the condition that the denomina-
tion of the bonds should be $1,000
and $500, whereas the denomination
of the bonds are in the main $£,500.
The bid accepted was the one enter-
tered for the bonds as advertised.
The buyers asserted that at present
there is a greater demand for small
bonds, and that the large ones are
very hard to dispose of. At any rate ;
the city considers that the sale was!
a good one.
The bonds sold are 5% and for the
following purposes: $1 00,000 for
street improvement. $75,000 for pub-
lic school improvements, $13,000 for
fire department improvements, and
$10,000 for water works improve-
ments.
