4 WEAK DEFENSE

In mitigation of his attacks on the
Fl. Dodge Soldiers Home Bro. Cline
said last week, some might "hold that
burden is too heavy for tax layers,
or that the soldiers during the wal
simply performed solemn duty for
which they are not deserving any
more public acknowledgement than
others who do their duty under diff
ferent circumstances
We can understand the action of a
sordid or selfish person whose home
and property interests are situate in a
part of the state remote from this
Home opposing the institution on the
ground of added taxes, which the
good brother is pleased to style a
burden" But even though Mr..
Cline's real estate holdings are in
the eastern extremity of Ford county
be is very short sighted not to know
that benefits to it because of this insti-
tuition are much greater than the ad-
ditional tax levied for the Home
appropriations. In placing "duty I'M
der different circumstances on the
same level with that Of leaving home
and family ties to stop bullets for ones
government, Mr.. Cline differs from
the settled policy of all civilized ma
tons OH the face of the earth. Even
Grover Cleveland who used his veto
power SO lavishly against pension
legislation, did not resort to the
himsy pretext advanced by our
sanctimonious brother.
We are astonished that one like
Mr.. Cline, who was in the late war
and ought to know the hardships Ell
dured and dangers encountered,
should pirate Of burdens on tax
payers in connection with the care Of
helpless veterans who survived that
dreadful conflict. We are glad such
sophistry as he now suggests might
be used against the Home was not
thought Of when the act was passed
under which he nov draws seventeen
dollars per month. We presume he
deserves every dollar of it but because
he can thereby sit back in easy secur
ity without the aid of a soldiers
home, the good brother ought not tc
grumble over the taxes he pays to Ell
able others equally deserving to be
cared for also.

RECIPROCITY is giving st. Louis a
boom. A dispatch from that city
says the effects of the lowering of the
Cuban duties on flour are just begin
ming TO be clearly felt. Heretofore
nearly all shipments have been by way
Of Eastern seaports, and much soft
wheat -four has been sent from other
places. Lately, however, there has
been a marked change. The opening
of the Cuban ports has caused an i'm
mense increase in the traffic by the
Gulf, and has been of gre at benefit to
st. Louis four-dealers.
Not only has the trade of st. Louis
been increased, but much flour that
formerly was shipped to the East now
comes to St. Louis.
The opening of the -four traffic with
Cuba and the Spanish West Indies
has also had most stimulating effect
upon the European trade by way of
the Gulf. Last week an entire cargo
was shipped to Ireland by way of New
Orleans, seven trains leaving that city
laden withfour. This is the heaviest
shipmenton record to Gulf port,

SINCE our esteemed contemporaries.

SINCE our esteemed contemporaries
have failed in their frantic attempts
to destroy the TT. Dodge Soldiers
Home, they are both in sad plight.
The Ensign keeps hammering away
at the institution, i'll spite of the un
disputed fact that at least 80 per cent.
of the inmates are serenely contented,
while the Democrat has turned all the
unsavory Walls of its wrath on the de
voted head of the "cadaver. We are
pleased to know that the furious and
frenzied assaults of the Democrats
editor have been diverted from the
Home, even though tLey are thereby
concentrated into personal vitupera
ton upon the editor of this paper.
He may do us up without affecting
the prosperity of the community, while
defaming the Home might destroy
a desirable market for the farm and
garden produce Of Ford county and
detract from the commercial prosper
ity of Dodge City.

HENRY CLEws says: "The extraor-
binary ease in the loan market can
hardly possibly fail to produce an &C
tive, if not excited, speculation.
When an extreme ease in money
comes concurrent with a general de-
preston in business, it may fail to de,
velop speculation; but when-as is the
case at PRESENT. happens along
with large crops and healthy state
of affairs at large, it almost inevitably
carries along with it general rise in
the value of securities as well as Of
other investments. The are two es-
pecially potent monetary influences
at present acting as lever on the
market. In the first place, the farm
ers are devoting a large amount Of
the proceeds OF their abundant crops
to the liquidation of their farm loans;
which has caused the double effect OF
creating a fresh demand for invest
ments from the holders of the liquid
ated mortgages, and of causing a large
accumulation of currency at this and
other eastern centers. This move
ment is one of the main causes of the
continued extraordinary influx o.
money from the interior.

neighbor city Columbus we give The
following editorial item in the Star
Courier Of last week. The gentleman
spoken of has taken charge OF the hotel
at Miami, I. t.:
Judging from the reports of the
manner in which the Palace hotel was
run under the management of w. j..
Harbour, reign of terror has run its
course in this city, but not without
touching some who may well wish
they had never come into contact with
1t. Harbour came here from Scdalia,
accompanied by Il woman who was
not his wife and il is said they came
for the purpose of making money.
Beer and whisky were sold almost as
from an open saloon, and other in
ducements, TOO shameful 10 mention,
were held out for the purpose of draw
ing patronage. The county attorney
got out warrant for the arrest of
Harbour, but getting information of
it, he fled 10 the territory, where lie
will probably continue his work.

Some time ago writer in the North
American Review made the startling
statement that the Uuited States is the
largest tenant farmer nation in the
world. Here is list Of the tenant
farmers in some Of the states as given
by the above writer: New York, &c.
So; Pennsylvania, 1895; Maryland,
1851; Virginia, 3l,S9S; North Caro-
lima, 52,72S; Georgia, 62,l75: West
Virginia, $4,000; Ohio, 1928; Indi-
ana, 4O,O5O; Illinois, S0.344; Michigan,
l5,4ll; Iowa, 45,l74; Missouri, 5S,S62;
Nebraska, 11.49l; Kentucky. 44,O27;
Kansas, 22,95l; Tennessee, 1926;
Mississippi, 4l,55S; Arkansas, 26.l3O;
Texas, 55,465. Thus it will be seen
by the above that only four of the
states above mentioned have a smaller
tenant farming community than Kan
sas. The farmers Of Kansas own
their homes and are very prosperous
people.
