"War on the Farmers"

The New York World of May IA
contained an elaborate article headed
"War on the Farmers" which at
tempted to show that manufacturers
of agricultural machines, or "pro-
tected mill owners" as they are
tel med, "sell their goods very much
cheaper to foreign than to home con-
sumers. Nothing could be more
false than this assumption, and moth
ing has come under our observation
displaying greater ignorance and
malice on the part of The author. The
article is based principally upon the
comparatively small trade that some
eastern manufacturers of implements
and tools for truck farming have been
eudeavoring to establish abroad. the
aggregate amount of which is trif1ing
compared with the foreign trade
in regular farm machinery, such as
Irvine binders, reapers, mowers, hay
rakes. plows. etc. The World opens
its attack by quoting certain alleged
prices on garden tools. OF the correct
ness of these statements our readers
can Judge for themselves after read
ing the letter of S. l.. Allen & Co..
published at the end of this article.
1t is surprising that prominent
American newspaper should betray
such dense ignorance for 1t is we'll
known that American implements
are sold to foreign farmers at much
higher prices than to American farm
ers. We have frequently called the
attention of our readers to this fact |;
but in order to show more clearly the
difference, we will quote the retail
prices on the following machinery
and implements, giving highest fig
ures for all sections east of the Nit
souri, river:
Irvine binders, standard size, re.
tail, United States, about $145; Eng.
land, 1925 France, $240; in Italy
and other countries at still higher
prices.
Mowers, Gstandard size. retail

DEMOCRATS are running amuck
crying, "What has McComas done
for his constituents ?" If they had
kept quiet, we wouldn't feel obliged
to recall some of the things he has ac.
complished in the short time he has
been In Congress. Well he per-
fected the law prohibiting the i'm
portatiOn of foreign laborers under
contract. But for the amendment of.
fered by him the law would have been
practically worthless. He has done
as much as any man in Congress to
secure law to prevent the adulter-
alton of food products. Hesaved the
life of an American citizen, who was
about to be shot in Ecuador, by a
resolution in the House invoking the
aid of the State aud Navy Depart.
ments. He prevented the duty be.
ing taken from coal, thus saving
from demolition the greatest indus
try of Western Maryland. In the
10th Congress he secured the passage,
over Clevelapd's veto, of bill to
pension poor and deserving Union
soldier. He was one of the Finance
Committee to frame the new Silver
law, which has already increased the
prices of farm products beyond what
they have been for years. He fought
for the oleomargerine law to protect
farmers, and Interstate Commerce
law for shippers. He obtained a
favorable report on the bill to edu-
cate white and black children in the
South, in separate schools, at the ex-
pense of the General Government.
He exposed the cupidity of Demo.
cratic Ways and Means Committee,
in trucking to the sugar barons in
the Mills Tariff bill. He secured an
appropriation to pay for several thou.
sand dollars worth of property de-
stroyed in Western Maryland during
the war. He has done many other
things as Il Republican statesman.
and rs an efficient representative of
the people. He carries out, to the
best of his ability, the platform and
promises of his party, and he makes
himself felt in the councils of his
party. While other members of
Congress have required from eight to
ten terms to get to place where they
achieved reputation and became val
liable to their constituencies. Mr..
McComas has forged to the front in
four terms, and is credit to Mary
land. A man does not need to be
Republican to recognize Mr.. Nc.
Comas' worth. Common sense and
the ability to discriminate between
a statesman and crossroads petit.
logger, are only needed to indicate
that the voter should cast his vote
for Mr.. McComas this fall, and ev,
cry other fall that he is a candidate.

The Bill further states that the said land is
not susceptible of division and prays for a sale
and distribution of the proceeds.
The Bill also contains the usual prayer for
process and f.,r an order of publication against

fasc oF Accident to Atlantic steamers.

Measure for the Saving OF Human Life Ia
Case OF Accident To Atlantic Steamers.
WASHINGTON, April 3. Representative
Turner, of New York, Tuesday intro
duced in the house preamble and joint
resolution for the better protection Of
human life on the Atlantic ocean. The
preamble to the resolution calls at
tention to the recent accident to the City
of Paris, which jeopardized the lives OF
more than 1000 persons and made u APP
parent that some measures should be
taken looking to the better protection OF
human life and property on tine ocean
highways; says the rivalry between
competing lines of steamships is so keen
that considerations of safety and even OF
humanity are often lost sight of in the
efforts to reduce the time occupied in
transit across the Atlantic; declares that
she laws of certain foreign countries
governing vessels carrying mails compel
them to make all possible speed,
having regard solely for the consid-
Grafton of landing the mails 50 car
ried at the earliest possible moment, and
the temptation to the commanders OF
such vessels are very great 70 sacrifice
all considerations of convenience, safety,
and even of humanity, TO that of speed;
holds that better protection tn human
life and property can be afforded by a
system of ocean patrol than by any
other means, and that any such system
of ocean patrol must necessarily be
maintained by nations rather than by
private enterprise, owing to tac magni-
tude of the undertaking and the ex-
pense necessary to the maintenance OF
an official service; and that the CO
operation of the several nations chiefly
interested in the trans Atlantic travel IL
necessary to the establishment aud main
tenance of an ocean patrol service. and
finally concludes as follows:
WHEREAS The nations chiefly interested
in Atlantic travel are the United States, Eng
land, France, Italy and Norway and Swe
den; therefore, be IL
RESOLVED, BY the senate and house OF rep
resentatives that the president DO, and he
hereby is requested to communicate
through the secretary of state or other
proper channel, with the foreign powers 50
| Interested in trans-A tlantic travel, with a
view to secure their cooperation in the es-
tablishment of an efficient system of ocean
patrol, which shall include the employment
| for the eaid service of war vessels, or such
other suitable vessels as may be available for
the purpose.
