wheat Export. of Argentina.

WASHINGTON Eo6t.
The very surprising statement is
made that Argentina is exporting
more wheat than the United States
1t Is a consular report. and therefore
worthy of credence. 1t Is also predict.
ed that the time IL not distant when
Canada Will grow more wheat for eX-
port than our country, all which would
appear TO vindicate the opinion Of Mr..
James ]. Hill that soon the United
States will be buying breadstuffs from
abroad. That. however. Is not likely
until the tariff duty on wheat Is ma
terially reduced.
Last spring Indian corn was import
ed into New York from British south
Africa, paid the duty, and success
fully competed with corn from Iowa
and Kansas with three cents the
bushel to spare. The duty on wheat
is rs cents the bushel, while the duty
on corn Ii Ave cents less.
1t is asserted that in South Africa
there is a corn belt equal to that of
our country. and 1t Is virgin. as are
the wheat belts OF Argentina anu Can
ada. The prime reason OF the extrav-
aEant cost of living in our country is
that political economy we kaye prac-
ticed, which invites and incorporates
rs q part OF our population moro than
100000 foreigners q year. A Soc
ondary and very nearly as potent a

ohIo's Democratic Governor.

New 4ork Evening Post.
Not long ago, an Ohio Democratic
committeeman walled In this city over
the lost opportunities of Gov. Harmon.
With Republicans still in appointive
offices all over the State and hungry
politicians of his own party united,
what hope could there be for De-
or what chance that he could control
the delegation of Ohio in the next
national convention? But the people
of Ohio have Just found out how their
Governor has been using his time.
The grafters who have been filling
their purses and paying political debts
through the manipulation OF State
funds have discovered in Gov. Harmon
an Official whom they can neither de-
ceiye nor Brighten. He now has in his
ONCE safe discriminating documents
which legislative committees had been
powerless to, unearth, showing the
loan of State funds carried on the
books as in the vaults VI the trea-
surer's once, the payment of private
commissions to officials purchasing
supplies for the State, and other frauds
upon the people. No Ohio Republic
any longer scoring at the demand for
publican Administrations. To carry
the state against Gov. Harmon in
1910 would be no easy task under the
best circumstance. bat to go into the
campaign under the burden either of
denial of the frauds which he has
established or of an attempt to I'm
pede further disclosures would mean
the sure sacrifice of Republic hopes
in Ohio for years to come.

Diverxent Democratic Doctrine.

Memphis Commercial Appeal.
The Democracy preached in the Sem
ate last year was not Democracy OF
tariff for revenue. Some Senator'S
were eloquent for tariff Tor revenue
until some product in their state was
struck.
The Louisiana members were out
and out protectionists on sugar.
Mr.. Bailey. tTex.), stood by the spe-
eial interests IN his state and used
the tax on raw materials AS a screen
some OF our Democratic Senator's
are Of such q mental calibre that they
are not able to see the fallacies of the
Republican doctrine of protection. The
result 10 that they are free traders,
and tariff-for-revenue men during
vacations. At the critical hour they
make an Indifferent light, and victory
comes easy for the Republicans.
We are reaptng the result OF the
protective system now In the ineneasi-
ed cost of living In this country
brought about by the trusts and COM
binations. 1t must be said also that
many OF these trusts cannot be reach
ed bv the law. They do exist because
of the protective system. and the only
