On FRIDAY, 22d instant, President Roosevelt
started on his tour of New England, New
Haven, Conn. being the first point visited by
him and his party. His trip was one con-
tinuous ovation, the people of the cities and
towns turning out in thousands to meet and
greet him. The President has made number
of speeches and these have been generally
highly spoken of by the press. He spoke
several times very plainly about the trusts
and it evidently will be part of his future
policy to in some measure curb them in the
interests of the neonle

THE GOVERNMENT AND FARMERS
Lancaster (Pa.l Examiner.

Lancaster (Pa.) Examiner.
If there be one interest which more than
any other has had the watchful care of the
Government for the last forty years, it is agri-
culture. If there be one interest which more
than any other is, at this date, the recipient Of
peculiar favors from the Government, it is
farming Here and there may be found some
anomalies and even abuses in a tariff schedule
which affect the farmer and the land at large.
This is inevitable, as it is impossible to frame
a tariff bill to please everybody The best
that can be hoped from any such bill is the
most good to the greatest number. In spite of
some mistakes, it cannot be denied that the
protection of American industries has been, is
calculably helpful to the agricultural interest.
1t has built up the home market-the cities
and villages-whose demand for farm products
is today creating wealth for the producers.
They are not complaining of the increased cost
of subsistence, for they know that the most of
it goes 10 them. Not only this indirect benefit
of protection is making the farmers fore
handed, but they are greatly helped by tariff
schedules framed directly in their interest.
The Government has given away farms by
the hundred thousand, and the Agricultural
Department, through its various bureaus, has
added hundreds of millions to the farmers
gains. II has shown them how to protect
their live stock from the ravages of disease,
their crops in fields, orchards and vineyards
from devastation by insects. 1t has intro
duced new varieties of cereals, grasses, root
crops, and fruits. and shown the farmer when,
where and how to plant them. There has
been as great an advance in agriculture as in
manufactures, and the Agricultural Depart
ment has been very potential factor in pro-
ducing it. That department took up and in
diligently promoted the good roads move
ment whereby the value of farms has been enor-
mollslv increased The farmers uuite "a much
as other classes are the benefciaries of the
good work accomplished by the Forestry
Bureau.
When an agricultural and a manufacturing
interest conflict, the farmer appeals to Con-
gress and wins. Let him who questions the
accuracy of that statement look at the several
acts of Congress for the protection of the dairy
business. Are there any other national laws
marked by 80 much of special favor to sim
gle interest? We know of none.

Girls Caused This Strike.

A letter from Wichita. Kas., says that three
young women are responsible for harvest
hand strike last week, when 300 quit work
leaving % farmers stranded for help in the
midst of their wheat harvest. The girls had
been working in the fields themselves, and
they complained of i'll treatment from several
of the farmers employing them. The long
hours was the cause of their quitting work.
Three young men, their sweethearts were dis
charged at the same time for trying to organize
the girls and they began getting young men
to quit work and join their forces until 800

THE Coop ROADS CONVENTION that was held
at Cumberland, Md, was marked success
and no doubt will be productive of much
good. Mr.. William L. Amoss, State director
of Farmers Institutes, was among those who
made addresses and earnestly advocated the
injection of scheme for teaching matters per-
tanning to agricultural science and domestic
economy into the public schools, and stated
that in order to do this economically and with
specialists, good roads must be had. Con-
gresham Pearre argued upon the necessity,
from an economic standpoint, of improvement
in the common roads so that the cost of trans
portation of products from the farm to the con-
sumner might be lessened. Prof. Arthur n.
Johnson. road expert of the Maryland High
way Commission, spoke on 1.-The Roads of
Maryland" and Prof. M o. Eldridge, assis-
tant director OF the Bureau of Public Road In
quires of the Agricultural Department, spoke
on 1.-THE Roads of the United States and
Europe illustrated by stereopticon views.

THE DEMOCRATIC primary election that took
place Tuesday afternoon in the Fifteenth and
Sixteenth wards of Baltimore city-which are
now a part of the Second Congressional dis
trict-resulted in a victory for Hon. J. Fred.
c. Talbot. of Baltimore county, who beat
Mr.. Charles E.. Fink, of Carroll county, 472
votes both wards being carried by the friends
of Mr.. Talbot. The Fink faction made
charges of frauds of various kinds against the
opposition, but Mr. Talbott's friends assert
that there was no foundation for these and
declare the election to have been fair and
square.
DESPITE REPORTS from some quarters to the
contrary, there will be no opposition to the re.
nomination of Hon. A. A. Blakeney by the
Second Congressional district convention
which meets at Westminster, on Tuesday next,
September I'd. 1t was said lately that Hartford
county would be likely to present candidate
for this honor, but nothing authentic has de-
veloped to indicate that this is so. In Carroll
ex- Judge Reifsnider was mentioned as a pos
sible candidate, but he has said positively that
he does not wish the nomination. Hence the
field remains clear for Mr.. Blakeney, who has
been a faithful Representative of the district
for two years and will be again honored as the
party's standard bearer.
