WEED OUT FAKES,

The class of publications at
issue are unworthy of the
name. They are mere adver-
tising sheets, and the adver-
tising is of very unreliable
nature at that. "Air" line pro-
moters, wildcat mining COM
panies, snide jewelry concerns,
and similar impostors use such
sheets to carry on their dis
reputable business-to gull
the farmers. The subscription
rates of these papers are small,
but this is of no moment to the
publisher-their aim is to OBJ
tain a large circulation and
thus command a high price
for advertising the wares of
swindlers. Then, again, the
fellows who edit these sheets
know no more about farming
than a horned toad does about
the works of Confucius.

THE BEST TIME TO SPRAY.


1 am writing this note as a
caution to farmers who are PEE
pairing to spray mustard aud
king-head in the grain fields
by the use of field sprayers.
The best results from spraying
can be obtained only when
there is good sunshiny weather
the next two days following
the spraying work. Therefore,
it is best to consult the weather
department, and especially to
follow rain rather than spray
before an apparent one. 1t is
also possible that those who
are ready to do the work will
be too anxious and commence
spraying before the weeds are
as old as they should be to give
the best results. Do not go on
a field of wheat and mustard
for the spraying work until the
majority of the mustard plants
are beginning to show the first
blossoms that is, they should
be four or five leaves high.
Mustard can be thoroughly
wiped out in one days spray
ing after all of the seeds have
matured in the pods. The
farmers should not be too
hasty in attacking their must
ard fields else there may be lots
of weeds come up after the
spraying. The same may be
said to hold true with the king.
head. Here one should spray
just at the time when the grain
and king head are about of
equal hight, say, eight to ten
inches high. Spray in the
morning in preference to the
afternoon.

IT LOOKS BLACK.

There is a we'll authenticated
rumor from Washington that
President Roosevelt and At.
torney- General Bonaparte had
a serious misunderstanding
recently over the commence
ment of suit against the New
York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad Company for a
combination in restraint of
trade, in which Bonaparte
gained victory by threaten
ing to resign unless he were
allowed to enter the suit.
Denier Loeb denies it, but
well-informed Senators ard
Representatives believe it, and
the last has not been heard of
it by any means.
The story goes that Mr..
Roosevelt has agreed with
Messrs. Mellen and Byrnes of
that road, that they might
absorb the Boston and Maine
railroad and electric roads and
other properties, and told them
that "no legal action should be
taken in the premises;" but
that Mr.. Bonaparte being in
ignorance of this promised
notification Of the law had
given the newspapers notice
that he would commence a
suit against the railroad COM
pany in pursuance Of the pro,
visions of the Sherman law.
Thereupon, it is said, Mr..
Bonaparte was summoned to
the White House, and while on
his way there, telephone
message from the President
was sent to the Attorney.

the announcement to the news
papers be "killed." When
Bonaparte heard of this, he

THE TARIFF ISSUE.

4ub 1Ahlff Z lSSUE,
Outside of the intricacies of
the different schedules of the
tariff. purposely made obscure
and difficult for voters to un-
derstand, the question of high
or low tariff is the real fact at
issue. That plain issue every
one comprehend. The pre-
sent tariff was especially de-
signed to protect the trusts
aud manufacturers from fore.
ign competition, aud the ques-
ton of raising revenue for the
government was secondary
consideration. The Republi-
cans when concocting the
present tariff law to suit the
trusts and protected monopo-
lists rashly discarded the pre-
sumption that foreign couu.
tries, when they found the
schedules so prohibitive that
they could not protitably ex-
port their products to this
country, would retaliate by in
creasing their rates of duties,
80 as to prohibit the importa-
tion of American goods. Fore
igners want our wheat aud
flour. our corn and meat aud
tobacco, and other products
they do not raise themselves,
or do not produce in sufficient
quantities to supply their own
consumers, but they do not
want our manufactured goods
to compete with their own like
products. Such countries as
Germany, France, Austria,
Russia, and in fact every
country, but England, has rails.
ed higher tariff barrier to
prevent competition from the
United States. They declare,
if you will not trade with US,
we will buy as little as possi-
BILE of you.
The trusts try to overcome
their foreign tariff barrier by
selling at much lower prices
to the foreigners than to our
own people. The European
and other foreign markets are
loaded down with bargain
counter goods from the United
States, while trust prices here
are still kept at the top notch.
Therefore, the question the
voters of the Uuited States
must decide at the coming
election is whether they are
satisfied to pay high prices for
much they buy, or by reducing
the tariff participate in the re-
duced prices that the foreign
ers enjoy. That is a very
simple proposition to vote up
on. Those few voters who
benefit by trust high prices
will, of course, vote to continue
the Republican party in power.
Those who think the trusts
should shift for themselves
and be subject to competition
that will force them to sell
their products as cheaply as
abroad will vote the Democrat
ticket.
The Republican National
platform will declare as former
ones have, for "the principle of
protection and although there
may be promise to revise the
tariff, there will be no direct
promise to revise it lower.
How can the protective
principle be perpetuated with
out continuing or even increas-
ing the present rates: Don't
be again fooled by promises
unless specific reductions are
included.
