CUBAN RECIPROCITY AGAIN.
Proves 10 Be a Far Worse Bargain
Than Predicted by Its Hottest
Opponents.

1t is not likely that the efforts of mem
bers of Congress to repeal the Cuban
reciprocity convention will come to any
thing in this administration, unless
there should be marked change in our
national prosperity, in which event we
undoubtedly should see all the republi-
can skirmishers for tariff revision slip
ping under cover from the popular fire.
The thing that stands in the way of the
repeal is not the clause fixing the life of
the convention at five years. Some
members profess to doubt that congress
would have the right to nullify that
provision; but, of course, it was mere
form and illegal when it went in, so
that taking it out could not be either
impossible or impracticable, so far as
that single question is concerned.
For any one to maintain that
congress could enact Cuban tariff
which must not be touched by future
congresses within five years is equiva-
lent to maintaining that any free-trade
congress coming into power could enact
Wilson law for the whole country for

The Year Book and Guide.

You frequently hear mention of dead
languages. Well, some facts are even
deader, but these are not the kind that
The Tribune Almanac deals in. BY
way of verifying that, just take ours.
DRY glance over the issue for 1906,
which is now on sale. 1t is not an AL.
manac in the dictionary sense of the
word, but is really ready reference
and guide book, containing everything
that such compilation ought to have.
And the material has been garnered and
sifted and tested with the utmost
care so as to secure absolute accuracy,
or at least get as near to it as honest,
painstaking endeavor will bring one.
Herein will be found a perfect gold
mine of information on topics of inter
est, not only to every American, but
likewise to all who care to know about
us, our laws, population, officials, and
so forth. (And, by the way, if you have
any friends in Europe, just send them
a copy and see if they don't appreciate
it,
There isn't anything missing in the
way of records which the average man
will want to know about. 1t doesn't
matter what the subject-pension legis-
lation, sporting statistics, facts about
universities, colleges patriotic societies,
population, public officials, election re-
turns, railroads foreign commerce, inn
migration, foreign rulers, or New York

In fact, it is really not an exaggera-
ton to say that of hundred and one

least ninety-nine will be found in The

of view which permitted its first exis-
tence, unless, as we say, the country
should run into hard times, as it surely
would do if we had on our backs few
more reciprocity bargains of the Cuban
order.
The results Of this agreement have
been even less advantageous to this
country than the hottest opponent OF
the reciprocity scheme predicted Fol-
the ten months ending with October
our imports from Cuba were $S7, 900, GOO
our exports to that country were $780,

record for the calendar year will show
Imports from Cuba, $104, 000,0 600.
Exports to Cuba, $43 100000.
In the calendar year of 1900 our i'm
ports from Cuba were $31, 900, 900; our
exports more than SEQ, 100000. To sell
ST, 10000 more of our goods to Cuba a
year we are buying $73, 900, 900 more a
year from that island. In 1900 we had
an adverse trade balance on our trans
actions with the island of less than S.
100000. This year we shall have an add
verse trade balance on the same account

surance grafters) would be locked in an
insane asylum by his associates. We
suppose that this country, rich and hap
py, careless and prodigal in its prosper
ity, thinks that it can throw away $780,
100000 year on our Cuban friends
and sometime wards, though propos-
al to put fifty millions into the navy
would excite horror in some quarters;
probably it will continue to humor the
reciprocity sentimentalists on this par
ticular score until our people begin to
feel the pinch of harder times. Then
the American people undoubtedly will
retire the Cuban reciprocity convention
among other musty and useless archives
and probably they will "cuss good
and hard" the men who committed this
economic and un-American folly.-New

Five Thousand Acres Now Under
Cultivation.

No successor has been appointed yet
for Emmett Bowen, who resigned his
position as manager Of the Prairie Farm.
JAN 1. Pending choice Mr.. DeGues
is in charge.
The resignation of Mr.. Bowen is a
cause of considerable regret to those
who have had to do with him in his
business. The reasons for the resig
nation are purely private ones. Mr..
Bowen has no definite plans for the
immediate future. For the present, at
least, he will continue to live at his
home on the Prairie Farm
The resignation comes at a time
when Mr.. Bowen has brought the
mammouth farm under most excellent
organization. The uphill work of re-
claiming the country and turning it
into productive farming region has
been successfully carried through un
der his supervision. In the three years
that the the farm has been in operation
during all of which time Mr.. Bowen
has been in charge, over half Of the 10,
600 acres comprising the farm have been
put under cultivation, the big dykes
have been built, over 70 miles of tilling
have been laid, and little village OF
100 buildings has sprung up.

Echoes from the Republican Club
Banquet.

Lack of space has prevented our Civ
ing but short report of the able ad-
dresses at the recent Republican Club
banquet. This week brief outlines are
given of the responses by Hon. VIM.
Alden Smith, Hon Henry McMorran
and Hon. G. J. Dickema.
AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL POLICY"
In beginning his talk VIM. Alden
Smith thanked Ex-Gov. John T. Rich
who sat directly in front of him for
giving him his political start. He re-
ferred to the senatorial contest by stat
ing that every man was candidate for
governor or senator-receptively-
he believed all who had been mentioned
were qualified. His own candidacy he
called "An already open wound, that
did not intend to heal" His last visit
to Owossso was in the 1896 campaign.
Since then the district had chosen as
representative. w. Fordney He re-
called the advent of that that modest
plain, blunt business man in Washing
ton and had the pleasure of showing
him about. Since that time, however
no one had been called on to show him
about. Capable and energetic, honor
able and upright-this district, could
honor itself by continuing the present
representative in Congress. They were
linked in their championing of domes-
tic industries and intended to stay by
the sugar industry as they had others.
1t was the most important one started
in this country in a century, and would
be another great addition to the things
that make for the best conditions In the
world surrounding the American peo-
pie. Nowhere else are the people so
prosperous-there are happy ones every
where, but none so generally prosperous
and contented. He was surprised to
find that people were not 80 anxious to
live in New York; business was good
everywhere in the country and oppor-
tunities great. This year the United
States will buy billion dollars worth
of other peoples goods and sell them
billion six hundred million-the great
est year in the industrial life of the ma
ton. Every day of prosperity was due
to the protective policy; reciprocity is a
shelter for the free trader until he can
take a new hold; depression follows
democratic rule and free trade and it is
better to stick to the old policy.
The United States is matchless in en-
pire-extending half way round the
globe-the sun never sets on the terri
tory-for when the sun is setting on the

PROBLEMS NOW BEFORE CONGRESS. I"
Congressman Henry McMorran, of
/ Port Huron, was pleased to visit Owes
so and county that could roll up 1000
majority and continue to help keep a
\ man like Mr.. Fordney in Congress.
With 100 Joe Fordneys in Washington
many problems that are perplexing
would vanish-there would be no
Philippine bill.
AS to legislation theimmigration ques-
ton was exceedingly important-not
affecting Michigan so much, but de-
pressingly affecting other parts of this
country. A board of health should be
stationed at every port of entry and
those not physically high class should
| be rejected; the illiterate should be
barred. This is especially impressed on
| us when we find that children Of foreign
born parents are not given as much
education here as those coming in when
young get mostly for themselves.
The Philippine bill-a free trade
measure-should not be passed. There
has been fifteen million dollars spent on
the Philippines already. In 20 years
that would be 800 millions. Should
they be put ON level with Americans
at that expense? We are importing
millions of dollars worth of coffee.
Why not grow it2 We can make every
dollars worth of sugar needed in the
country if the industry is encouraged.
Some people would destroy the 60
plants in this country and vast interests
besides and cut off entirely the most
promising new industry. AS result of
passing bill that was claimed to be
for the benefit of the Cubans trust is
millions of dollars ahead, the Cubans
are not benefited, sugar is no cheaper
and the development Of our institutions
is retarded

They are making mistake in attempt
ing to control or prevent legislation. The
Townsend bill should be passed
and the really one great evil be stopped,
that of discrimination. Power must
be given to examine the books,
schedules, reports and prevent unlawful
and unjust classifications and prefer

1t you wish to use up what grey mat

head think this this out. If people

corruption belongs to the elected and
how much to the elector? If the people
elect man to office who needs the per-

is the parasite that lives on the public
treasury, the elected or the elector? In
the course of exceedingly human events
there are times when it is becoming for
the elector to keep his hands off the
elected man and pinch himself good and
hard for electing man who proves true
to his own corrupt self. Elect a man
who is known as political tough to

Country Life in America for Janu-
airy appears for the first time under its
new title, Country Life in America and
the Country Calendar-the result of the
consolidation Of these two magazines.
The issue, with the exception of the
double numbers, is the largest yet pub
lished. Ten more pages of text and
illustrations have been added, making
total of 20 pages of reading matter, and
many of the best features of The
Country Calendar have been retained.
A new department, "News and Dis
coveries," tells the latest unpublished
news of invention and happenings that
affect country life in all its phases.
Two other features of the magazine for
the coming year will be the furnishing
and decorating of the inside of the
house, and nature studies, by we'll
known writers, such as Mabel Osgood
Wright and Dallas Lore Sharp.

The action of the board of control OF
the Industrial School for Boys, of which
Governor Warner is member, in re-
tanning Mrs. st. John as matron of the
institution and promoting the former
assistant superintendent to the superin-
tendency. is worthy of highest COM
mendation. Only the good of the insti-
tuition and its purposes were considered
in the above action, and whatever parti-
san claims were made as to preferment
or position for party service were very
properly rejected. 1t is fully recognized
by Governor Warner and his associates
on the board that the best possible SER
vice they can render the party they
represent will be through doing the best
they can for the institution and all the
interests committed to their care.
