What stood in the Way.


Secretary Shaw remarks that the tar
if does not help the food trust to
maintain it's monopoly. The food trust
is greatly obliged to Secretary Shaw,
Of course, but even Secretary Shaw
cannot alter facts. If the tariff doesn't
help the food trust why did the food
trust forbid the Republican Congress
to remove the duties on foreign meats
and cattle?-New York Journal, Vel
low Free Trade.
1t was not the food trust which stood
in the way of the removal of duties
on foreign meats and cattle If that
had been the only obstacle a bill re-
pealing these duties would have been
passed at the last session of Congress
without hesitation or hitch. 1t was the
American farmer that stood in the
way. He is the one that would be hurt
by free trade in meat and cattle. The
bNef trust would not mind it at all,
In such an event the trust would do
precisely what it is now doing-buy
and slaughter all the meat and cattle
that come in from Mexico, Canada and
South America, without any reduction
i'll the price Of meat to the consumer.
Secretary Shaw made that point per
fectly plain. There is another and a
better way to throttle the food trust.
Tariff smashing would be foolish and
worthless remedy.-American Econ

Maude had gone very slowly through
the rough land with his thoroughbred,
and crossed the second fence considera-
bly, behind all the others. There remain
ed only the good fence separating the
pasture from the meadow, and the sher-
if came straight for it, disdaining a bent
rail to one side which offered an easier
Jump. 1t was a new and stiff post-and-
rail. There was clean-cropped turf lead
ing to it, and Darlington felt tribe re-
lieved when he saw Maude let Bucklng-
ham out. He caught the others on the
slope and checked again as he neared
the fence. Chunk rushed by him and hit
| the second rail from the top, hard. The
impetus carried him through, and he
ploughed up the dirt with his white nose.
| The sheriff, nowise dsmayed, pulled the
| old horse to his feet and swinging his
hat in the air, as loud cheers came from
the hill ahead, pushed up the slope. Maude
steadied his horse at a high panel, and
laughed and cheered with the crowd at
the sheriff ahead; and then for the first
time it seemed to dawn upon him that
the mob was crying Chunk winso' ant
he saw the hatless sheriff, several lengths
ahead, beginning to whip.
Maude stood in his stirrups, as his horse
came into his stride, and let him have
more rein. Little by little Buckingham
picked up his distance. The crowd was
now but hundred and fifty yards away.
Chunk labored still a tritle ahead, and
gamely answered the whip. Nov, Buck"
said Maude, sitting down to ride, and
touching him with his heels. Sorry, old
Chunk" Maude said, as he swept by the
exhausted favorite. ''Your legs are good,
but you haven't the wind. Whoa, old
man. You're in," and he jumped down
among the delighted crowd.
Come, Terry, and the rest Of you, pay

mighty near gave me nervous prostration

laughter, while the crowd thronged about
him and overwhelmed him with congrat-

The negro was quietly secured, and the
sheriff addressed the men: Gentlemen,

Export Prices.

Volume XIII. of the report of the
Industrial Commission tabulates 41G
replies received by the Commission
bearing on the question of foreign and
domestic prices. The report says:
"The great majority of the answers
indicated that prices are no lower
abroad than they are for domestic CON
sumers, and a considerable number in
dictate that foreign prices are higher"
A few, however, state that they sell a
portion of their goods abroad lower
than at home, and the reasons are as
follows:
"Cash payments and large purchases
in the foreign trade, whereas the do
nestle trade is based on credits and
small purchases.
THE drawback or rebate of the tariff
on imported raw material of goods
manufactured for export
ITO overcome the tariff of other coun-
tries.
''To secure new markets.
'"To hold a market against new com
petitcrs.
ITO clear out surplus stock or to pre-
vent a shutdown and increased cost
of production, by keeping mills run
ming and men employed.
"To get rid of samples and out-of-
date goods.
Because the expense of selling and
advertising is less abroad than at
home"
These are the reasons attributed by
manufacturers of all countries for
sometimes selling a part of their stock
at a lower price abroad than at home.
1t causes no injury to the domestic con-
sumner and gives added employment
and wages to laborers, besides keeping
the home market firm and stable and
preventing ruinous competition in cut
ting prices.
There is another reason why some
American manufacturers sometimes
sell a portion of their goods at lower
price abroad, and perhaps the chief
reason. Most of our machinery or ar
ticles produced by machinery are COW
cred by patents which are exclusively
controlled and operated in this country.
For example, take agricultural nipple
ments. 1t can be shown that where
such articles are sold more cheaply
abroad than at home it is because of
patents. If not covered by foreign pat
ents it is obviously the policy to sell in
foreign countries at a price that will
discourage production in those coun-
tries
And yet of the manufacturers of ag-
ricultural implements reporting to the
Industrial Commission, AL, with only
one exception, stated that prices to for

progressive" Republicans.

The Chicago Tribune began it's free.
trade work few days ago by advocat-
Ing free wheat from Canada to help the
Minneapolis mills. Now the Tribune
has gone a step further and advocates
free beef cattle from Mexico and Can
ada. Says the Tribune:
1.-THE cattle-raising industry needs no
bounty encouragement. SO long as the
cattle raisers of the country and the
butchers, wholesale and retail, We're
able to supply meat at fair price the
duties whose repeal the butchers ask
for were unobjectiOnable. AS soon as
prices reached a point where meat be-
came a luxury the duties became I'M
necessary for protective purposes. If
they have any effect it is to add slightly
to the cost of meat"
The farmers of Iowa would discover
the difference so soon as the present
duties were removed. Cattle can be
grown in Mexico and Canada cheaper
than in the United States on account
of cheap lands and cheaper labor The
Mexicans and Canadians are not enti-
tied to the splendid American market
without paying for it in lieu of the
taxes they would pay if they were
growing cattle in the United States.
Forgetting that train loads of Next
can cattle reached the Chicago market
under the Wilson law, the Tribune
says:
"The cattle raisers of the country are
not threatened with any competition
which will be destructive of their prof
it's, nor is there any possibility of the
foreign or domestic supply becoming SO
great in the next few years that the
market price of meat will not be a suf-
ficient inducement to men to engage In
the raising of live stock"
The Tribune argues that the con-
sumner is better entitled to low prices
than the producer to a protected price
as follows:
VASTLY more people are affected ia
vorably by the low price Of meat than
by it's high price, and consequently the
repeal of the duties on cattle and meat
will meet with more support than OPP
position"
With the Tribune it seems to be only
question of securing a low price to
the consumer. That is cardinal doc
trine with the freetrader.
The progressive Republicans" have
now demanded:
Free wheat from Canada into the
United States.
Free beef cattle from Mexico and
Canada.
Free iron and steel from all the
world.
Free hides from South and Central
America.
Free wool from South and Central
America.
And the list is growing. What is a
protectionist to do in times like these?
Republicans had better get out their
facts and figures before joining in any
free trade cry.-Des Moines Capital.

The Maine Election.

That Maine would go Republican last
Monday was as certain as that the sun
would rise on the morning of that day,
but that it would go as strongly Re
publican as it did was not expected
even by the most sanguine prophets.
1t is a State where pluralities have
fluctuated widely in off years. That
the Republicans should have piled up
a plurality, exceeded only once in the
last twenty years, shows that they are
not dissatisfied with the policies of the
administration, and that the party in
the State is united. What is true Of
Maine it is safe to say will be true Of
every other Republican State. The re-
suit has a national significance.
The keynote of the campaign in
Maine was stated in a general way in
June by Senator Gallinger of New
Hampshire:
''Our friends on the other side are
looking for an issue. They need not
worry; the issue is looking for them.
Prosperity is the issue and all other
uucSllOIS dIc
Prosperity was the issue in Maine.
Southern Congressman, orators from
New York, even Bryan himself, labored
with the people Of Maine to divert
their attention from this issue and fill
ed the State with lamentations over
impending calamities, but it was all in
vain. All that President Roosevelt had
to do was to make a plain statement
of the administration policy on this
and other questions. The issue found
the Democrats in spite Of all their eff
forts to evade and elude it and it will
find them everywhere.
The Democratic party never succeeds
in time Of prosperity because nothing
c0nduceS so much to personal satisfac-
ton with existing conditions as pros
perity When the country is prosper
Gus peONle have no desire to make q
change in any of the conditions which
has secured that prosperity. Least Of
all is it a time for political resentments
or personal malignity. The prosperity
of one class involves the prosperity Of
other classes, so interdependent are we.
1t is not astonishing, therefore, that
the majority Of the people of Maine
should have voted for prosperity. 1t
would be remarkable if some did not
vote for it who have become tired Of
voting against it. So long at least as
this issue remains, the prophets Of ca
lamity will shrek in vain. Tho poll
cies of the Republican party have given
to this country q measure of prosperity
which has placed it industrially and
commercially at the head of all uations.
1t is not conceivable that it's people
knowingly will do anything wantonly
to retard its wonderful progress.-Chi-
CagO Tribune.

Accuses Former President of Aspiring

"It seems" says Mr.. Watterson, "a
kind of irony of fate that it should

scorn and contempt on his lips for

his ignorance; his vulgar selr aSser

THAT Mr. Cleveland should put him

which would be sublime if it We're
not sinister; because leadership with
him means office, and nothing but Of
