MORE ABOUT WHITE SLAVES

New York, Oct. 29.-With United States
Attorney General Wickersham bitterly at
lacking William j. GaynOr in behalf Of
the Republican fusion ticket, oratory, red
IRE and inVective were scattered nearly
all over Greater New York tonight with
the municipal election only two working
days away Hundreds of minor mass
meetings were held, while the respective
heads of the three tickets-Independe
Democratic and Repls0lican-were the
chief speakers at larger gatherings.
william X. Hearst spoke three times on
the East side; William J. GaynOT spoke in
Brooklyn and then came to Manhattan.
while Otto T. Barnard, beginning in the
theatre district, swept down town, then
up into Harlem. The candidates confined
themselves rather to summing up their
his appeal TO the common people,
struck a popular chord tonight by an
nounclng that If he was elected mayor he
would hire a spacious hall, where he
would appear at stated times for a reck-
oning at the hands of the people-to an

ADVICE. lie also spoke of ballot box STUFF
ring. He said he was prepared to meet
repeating at the coming election.

TO Sing Sing he said land we expect
to send a regular Hudson-Fulton parade
10 the same place during the coming
month. But We are going to kill the tiger
this year-kiH him and skin him and nail
his hide to the wigwam."
Mr. Barnard spoke principally of the
police and personal liberty a subject
used principally by GaynOT The police
department, he said. should be reasonably
removed from politics, and the enforce
ment of the law should be reasonable, but
not spasmOdic.
Attorney General Wickersham. speaking
in Mr.. Bannards behalf, added a bit OF
national flavor to the campaign.
L am not here as a federal Official or
a member of the presidents cabinet" he
said, but as a citizen and a taxpayer of
New York. In this capacity I feel it my
privilege and duty to aid in this effort to
put competent and honest men at the
head of the affairs of the city.

He denied that he had ever been on trial

income of 81 200 from tenement rents, the
truth was, he said. that he owned prop

Wheat.

How long will the United States be
able to maintain its standing as the
granary of the world? South America
and Asia have already leaped into
and Africa is coming on apace.
Canada, with the development of the
great territory known as the North
west, has become a strong competitor
for the business of European consumers
AS the years go by this Canadian COM
petition will become more and more of
a factor in fixing the price of wheat to
the European and the European will
be less and less dependent upon the
United States for the bread he is COM
PEELED to have.
We have been told several times that
we would soon cease to grow more
wheat than is needed for home con-
sumption, that the agricultural
population would outgrow the agri-
culturalists' ability to feed them.
About Is years ago a Kansas statis-
tician made the prediction that within
Il few years we would be exporting no
wheat and would be importing flour in
stead. He reckoned without the in
crease in spring wheat and without the
increase in the amount of winter
wheat raised on each acre of ground.
The amount of spring wheat has
doubled and farmers are raising two
more bushels of winter wheat to every
acre planted, than Is years ago.
We cannot feel safe in this expert
ence however. We are eating more
wheat than ever before. The increase
has been so per cent. per person in hall
| a decade. There is little doubt but that
this increase will continue, though not
as markedly, during the next five years
The increase in amount of wheat
raised per acre is susceptible of in.
crease and will doubtless keep pace
The normal increase in population OIL

stances, would just about wipe out tn,

Upon this latter hypothesis the
prophets base the assertion that we will
lsoon cease to export.

What will be the result? Will the
manufacturing industries, now strong
est in the East, take up the westward
march and give us a new hold on
world markets? Or will we have to
he content with holding supremacy in
other agricultural lines? We are in
ciined to believe that it will be a little
of both. Manufacturers will eliminate
one transportation cost by getting
close to the raw material, wherever it
be found and we will continue to sell
Europe food which it cannot produce
as economically as we can. From a
military standpoint the situation holds
nothing alarming. There is no ques-
ton but that America has escaped an
noyance many times because she con-
trolled the larder, but the same con-
troll in any other necessity will bring
us a similar measure of immunity
from hot headed nations.

Aid to Inventors.

A Kansas City man has offered the
free use of 5000 feet of factory space to
struggling inventors. The philan-
thropist guarantees privacy for the in
ventors and places no other restric-
lions on them except to state that he
prefers to help those who are inter-
ested or will interest themselves in
the problems of the heavier than air
flying machine; better combustion
of gas to make possible it's more
general use; the generation of gas
from Ignite or slack coal, retaining
the coke for secondary usages; a
smoke consumer; the compression of
air for more general purposes; a more
economical method of handling water
for deep well mining and irrigation
purposes; machine for transporta-
ton by water as we'll as by land-the
automobile boat; cheaper method of
purposes, and more economical
method of drilling deep wells.
The erection of factory buildings, as
inducements to manufacturing enter
prises to locate in Maine, attained the
proportions of a fad a few years ago
Some of the incoming industries
readily adapted themselves to the
changed conditions. Others did not.
Some towns gained prosperous in
dustry with all the attendent benefits.
Others put hard earned cash into big
factories and have never received a
return thereon.
The philanthropy of the Kansas
City man suggests a use for these
abandoned factories. Why would it
not be good business to give free use
of such factory space as bona fide in
ventors need and demand in return
that such inventions as reach the
practical stage, be manufactured in
the town where the aid was rendered
Maine inventive genius has given
much to the world, but in almost
every instance the prosperity the in
vention created, has benefited another
state. We have the factory space in
this State to house all the inventors IN

dred succeeds, the State will be paid

You see the pretty daughter
OF man who dealt i'm coal
Asked it of him for her wedding,
So he sang it. like a bird;
Did the maiden tell him thank you?
If she did we haven't heard.
But the .poet froze that winter
In his garrett simple soul
For he didn't have the money I
That would buy a ton of coal;
Yes, the coal man might have saved him
1t is what he should have done;
But he said: Nope, nothin dom,
Not this winter. Coal costs mum"
