Protect American Corn.
Tariff Should be Levied on Foreign Starches IN
the Interest Of Iowa Producers.

ana Saploca flour or starch are used
for gums for envelopes, stamps, la
befs and other like purposes. But
American doctrines produced II, m
corn may be used sor these purposes
equally well. and they are used very
largely for these purposes; the extent
to which tapioca and sage flour is
thus used is very small and there is
no reason why they should not pay a
duty where thus used.
Finally It is said by tais learned
authority on behalf Of the eastern
cotton mills that sage and tapioca
flour are used BY the mills for special
purposes, such as window shades or
curtains. If this were SO, these fab
RIGS are protected by very heavy
duty, and there is no reason why the
manufacturer should not pay a duty
on the Asiatic starch which goes into
them. But, in point Of fact, the
Asiatic starches are not thus used for
special fabrics. They are used by
the cotton mills Unfortunately just
as American starches are used, and
American starches may be used for
all OF these special fabrics equally
we'll. The claim Is mere sham to
give the eastern cotton mills this
much Of their material, insits cheap
est form, from Asiatic countries, duty
FREQ.
These Asiatic starches do not reach
the interior manufacturer Of the
coarser cotton fabrics on account Of
railway freight rates. The whole bust
ness is cute Yankee trick in favor
OF the eastern cotton mills.
It will undoubtedly he up to our
Iowa senators. Eolliver and Cummns.
to make fight on the floor. of The
senate for the protection OF American
starches. Our Iowa farmers have a
large interest at stake. Douglas &
Company are grinding more than l.
500, 900 bushels OF corn annually at
Cedar Rapids in the manufacture of
corn starch. In addition to this there

The Vetoed Bill

AT the last meeting of the old board
of commissioners, the claim Of P. A.
Leamy for road work in the Gold Circle
district was allowed for $500 and went
to the auditor Auditor Greenhouse
vetoed the bill on the ground that the
claim violated the law prohibiting the
commissioners from paying claims of
$500 OF over without having first adver-
tised for bids. The veto went to the
new board at its first meeting and was
laid over. At the meeting of the board
on the first of this month, the commits
sioners unanimously passed the bill over
the auditors veto.
The bill originally was in the neigh
borhood of SOTO. The work was
authorized by Commissioner Primeaux
and was done in March and April 1908.
The bill was promptly presented to tho
commissioners and was laid over from
time to time until finally acted upon.
From what we have been able to
learn, the work was absolutely neces-
sary to make the Gold Circle district
accessible. The district was just COM
ing into prominence and there were no
roads and it was almost impossible
to get into the district with team be-
fore that work was done. 1t is also said
by those familiar with the conditions at
Gold Circle that the work done by Mr.
Leamy would have cost the county
great deal more than it has if the county
had let it by contract.
The position of the INDEPENDENT is
well known in such matters While it
believes that Commissioner Primeaux
exceeded his authority in authorizing
the work to be done, it comedies that it
was done to meet an emergency and
that the county has not been wronged
in any way.
Auditor Greathouse in vetoing this
claim simply did his duty under the
law, and the commissioners in passing
it over his veto were fully justified by
the facts and circumstances surround
ing the claim. They should not, how
ever, make this precedent for future
violations of the $500 law. If they do,
Auditor Greenhouse will call them
down and the taxpayers of the county
will support him.
