Senator Carlisle has written a lone
letter to a constituent reviewing the
government warehouse plan, and op.
posing it vehemently. He concludes
that it will not benefit the farmers
His panacea for all their ills is a re-
duction of tariff duties. Mr.. Carlisle
is the man who has done more per-
hans than any other member for the
Kentucky distlllers. The very pro-
visions which they enjoy to ripen
their whisky at public expense, SO to
speak, are all right, but the man who
raises wheat and cotton and corn
would not be benefited by like treat
ment. He must take his chances
with the bulls and bears and bankers.
Mr.. Mills of Texas, has also written
a similar letter to constituent. He
refuses to support any such bill, be-
lieving that reduction of tariff du-
ties will bring all the relief required,
meantime the United States govern
ment continues to loan it's credit to
national bankers at one per cent on
twenty years time. We wonder if
Mr.. Carlisle would argue that this
does not help the bankers. Probably
he would. Tribune.

IF it is true, as claimed, that the pub
lication of these crop statistics is
detrimental to the farming interests
of our country, then certainly every
statistical bureau in the United States
should be abolished, and further
more the national census taker now
about to visit us should be sent to

So far as the census taker is con-
cerned that is about the place many
booming cities wish the gentleman
and the reports will settle the fact
(when we receive it ten years hence)
that statistics are but rough guesses
after all. The farmer is asked about
every detail of his business prospect
i've, and not as to what he accom-
plished last year, and herein lies the
cause of the whole opposition to the
statistical business. Do the sugar
manufacturers inform us of the
amount of sugar there will be turned
out during the year, and what the
worlds supply will BEG Will the
boot and shoe makers tell us the
number of pairs of shoes that will be
made the coming years Not much!
The farmer is the only one asked
about his prospective returns, thereby
allowing the gamblers to bull or bear
the price of his products as best
serves their interests. What other
business gives to the world informa-
tion of as to what amount of your
product have you on hand! What
amount will you produce this year?
