Senator Daniel challenged as to his

lowing reply in an interview at
Washington yesterday.
do Won favor government owner

Il would as soon substitute a king
for a President at once, for 1t is the
most imperialistic idea that has yet
appeared in American politics. 1t
means the appointment OF million
men in Washington. from the presi-
dent of railroad down 70 a brake
man. It means. too, an lncumberance
of our government which would sun
ocate it with patronage and also be
burden to the people from which
they would never escape unless by
an unprecedented revolution.
Il know of no reason why we
should have government ownership ex-
cept for that which has applied to
stimulate an opportunity to get rid of
them. All races would be equally
admissible to railroad employment
as they are under the civil service
as it now exists and among others
evils government ownership would re-
yive the race question in a most dis
agreeable and obnoxious manner. It
would bring to us again the expert
ences OF the past with the burdens
that would be heaped upon the people
and complications which would be
brought into our politics all of which
furnish abundant reasons against the
tremendous experiment of purchasing
and owning the great railroads. State
and federal experiments on this line
have already furnished reasons agains

Jeferson's Teaching.
Thomas Jefferson taught that gov
ernment is the best government that
governs the least The more things
we undertake to govern in this coun-
try through the federal agency, the
more we congest this government by
the magnitude and the number OF
things that 1t is undertaking. 1t
would better get rid of some things
that It is doing than add otaers to
those which are already so heared up
that congress is disabled from giving
them timely and proper attention.
%"The fact is cur nation is already
congested: the house of representa-
tives has become close corporation
controlled by a few men. without OPP
portunity to the mass of its members
to participate fully in legislation. Our
whole government will follow the ex-
ample. and the function of the house
as public forum will disappear if
we continue to pile up on the hands
of our congress and administrators
new concerns for their attention. The
fact is, the federal government, in its
just relation to society is full-handed,
and nothing would be more injuriuos
to the peope nor more burdensome
to the taxpayers than 10 invent for
ourselves new incumberances.

GOOD CROPS SPELL
BUSINESS REVIVAL
In 1874 They Turned Depression Into
Prosperity, as Expected to Do in
1908.

Chicago, June 17.-(Special Corre-
spondence of The Republican.)-A
study made of business conditions in
1874 following a panic and those of
this year goes to confirm the expec
tations that the crop of 1903 will
bring about a speedy business revival.
1t did in 1874. The importance of the
process of moving the crop" to gen.
eral business is well illustrated.
In 1874 business conditions were
tagging more painfully than the most
pessimistic reports indicate they are
at this time, but, fortunately, a corn
crop of greater value on the farms
than for four years prior or five years
subsequent, a wheat crop that broke
all previous records, exceeding in
value any crop from 1867 to 1877, and
oats and barley crops that also made
new records brought the staggered
country upright again. Exports of
wheat and corn during 1873 and 1874
were far greater than normal and
thus brought a great amount of for-
eign money to the United States
much as the experts of 1907 and
prospeetively, of 1908, have done and
will do. The marketing system of
capacity and proved to be the great
bulwark of the country's strength.
Since that time it has been still fur
Their perfected, old exchanges having
grown and new ones created which
have become world-market places for
the millions of bushels produced at
the prices made by the supply and
demand of the entire world.
Bearing on this, the report of the
Commissioner of Agriculture" in
1873, gives facts which show how
much less fluctuation and difference
in prices in different localities there
is now than then. For lack of the
selling system of the present day I'M
der contracts for future deliveries
which are backed by the RULES of
great grain exchanges such as the
Chicago board of trade, conditions
were different. The old report states:
Iowa has a surplus of corn to send
beyond state lines and got 50 cents
in 1867 and Is cents in 1872, a fall
of 81 per cent on account of growing
a surplus that became a drug on the
market" It is many years since a
surplus of corn that could become
a drug on the market" was possible,
owing to may new uses for it and
to the greater strength of the eX-
changes. where speculative capital is
enabled to compete with immediate
tdemand and, by fOreseeing future
needs for the surplus, buy and hold
it, putting an end to gfutted markets
after harvest and scarcity before the
succeeding crop. The wheat crop of
1873 was nearly 3OO.OOO.OOO bushels,
to the benefit of crippled business,
being valued at s325,OOO,OOO. This was
due to a crop failure in Russia. Elk
pOrters took advantage of their pur-
chases on the Chicago board of trade.
( thus preventing a slump due to an
eversupply market at home.
