what if the law was obeyed, by the
railroad companies. according to its
intent and spirit. there would be lit
tie or no occasion 70 complain. and no
criticism should be found against
them. if they confined their resistance
to provisions of the law of doubtful
construction. bur where, in the face
of PLAIN provisions of the law, where
no question can arise as to its mean
ing, it's requirements are ignored. they
are simply acting without JUSTIFICATION
or excuse. One of the first sections
of the rate law, lays down provision,
that should never be called in ques-
tion. and that is, that charges for
transported on Of commodities. from
one state to another. shall be just and
reasonable. and yet, this provision of
the law is mockery, so far as re-
spect is shown for it, on the part of
certain railroad companies.
One of the citizens of Denison. has
recently had an experience which
demonstrates the utter failure of the
railroad companies to treat this pro-
vision of the law with any degree of
candor. A short time ago. he had oc-
csion to purchase at Wray, Colorado.
one hundred ten bushels of seed wheat,
to be shipped to Alliance, Nebraska,
q distance of two hundred twenty-five
miles. The wheat was contained in
forty sacks, and weighed sixty. six
hundred pounds. The shipment was
made over one line of railroad, at
least there was continuous line from
the point of consignment to the point
of delivery. The rate which was
charged for the shipment by the rail-
road. was sixty-five cents per hundred
or thirty nine cents per bushel. and
this tariff was demanded by the rail-
road company and paid by the con.
signee. The total freight amounted
to $42.90, while the purchase price of
the wheat was only ninety five cents
per bushel. making total of $l04 SO.
When one reflects. that carriers
charge rate amounting to almost
half the value of the commodity trans
ported, whe,e the distance is but a
little over two hundred miles, the
question naturally arises, as to
whether the railroads intend to obey
the laws There should be some
drastic amendment enacted which
will Adequately punish the RESPONSE
Bile violaters of the law.

RATE LAW NOT oBEYED

1t is evident the railroad rate law.
which was passed during the Roose.
Welt administration. is not operating
to prevent railroads from charging ex-
horbitant rates, for carrying interstate
commerce. and their conduct justifies
President Taft in stating, that further
legislation should be enacted. to sup.
plement the weaknesses of the present
law. The railroads, have never been
in sympathy with any Law, which is
calculated to regulate their chargrs IS,
and they seemingly exhaust their in
genmty. to find way to circumvent the
revisions Of the law enacted To con rol
them. There is little question. but

market for all he produces, and this,
home market too. than since the en-.
actment of this same Dingley law?
The farmer is now told. that if the
tariff is reduced, he will be able to
purchase what he consumes at lower
price than what he now pays. This,
may be true. but only in case the re-
duction in the tariff. is placed below
the protective point. which would en-
able the foreign manufacturer, with
his cheap labor to manufacture and
bring his goods into competition with
home manufactured goods, produced
by our high priced lab-r.
Someone says, what objection is
there to this being done? The answer
is simple enough. The farmer and
everyone know, that the reason the
products of the farm command the
high prices which obtain, is because
of our home market. and this, we
have, because the factories are in
operation throughout the country and
labor is employed at good wages.
While this condition exists, the wages
of labor and the profits of the fac
tories are used to purchase the pro-
ducts of the farm Bat when the fac
tories are idle. business at a stand
still, and labor out of employment,
the consumers of the products Of the
farm are gone and the farmer no
longer, has market for what he
produces. The farmer knows, that
the more people engaged in manufac-
ture and in other occupations than
farming, the more consumers he will
have for his pod lets and h, is not
frightened by the statement, that the
manufacturers in the East, are pro-
ducing goods at profit. In fact, he
rfjoices to know, there is pros
perity in the manufacturing centsrs.
The men who are advocating reduc-
tion of the tariff. are NEITHER manu-
facturers nor are they selling cattle.
hogs, grain and other farm products.
They are not farmers. They are
theorists and politicians.

TIE FARMER AND The TARIFF

The farmers of the Middle West,
are not in favor of free trade, tariff
for revenue. or any reduction of thu
tariff, below the point of protection.
They have in the past. given their
support to the Republican party, be-
cause in season and out Of season, it
has stood for protection to American
Industries. American labor and the
American market. If the party
should now abandon the policy of pro-
tee ton. for which it has stood through
out it's history. it might as we'll re-
tire from business. The arguments
which are now being urged in ia .or
of a reduction of the tariff, are the
sanse ones, which free traders and
aariu reformers, have, from the be-
ginning. made against the policy of
protection. The enemies Of rrotec-
ton. have always claimed, that the
effect of the protective policy is to
enrich the few at the expense of the
many. This charge, whether made
by Democrat or anyone else, is
false, and has been false, Whenever
or wherever made. and to prove its
faisity, all that is necessary is to
point 10 the history of the country.
during the periods, when a protective
tariff has b. en- in operation. This,
ls especially illustrated by conditions
which have existed since tue enact
ment of the Dingley tariff law, twelve
wears ago. We assert. without fear
of contradiction, that never, in the
history of this. or any other country,
has such universal prosperity come
to a people, as to our people. since
the passage of this law. 1t has not
come to one class of people alone. but
to all ella. SEES and all sections of the
country. There certainly is no reason
for the farmers Of the country to COM
plain of their part in this prosperity.
When before. have farm lands con-
manded the prices they do today ?
When have cattle sold for better
prices than today? When have hogs
commanded such prices as at this
.ime. When has the grain raised on
the farm commanded better prices than
since the Dingley law was enacted ?
When has the farmer found letter

A GOOD COLLECTOR.

The government is fortunate in
having, at the New York Custom
house. collector of customs. who is
not only honest in the highest dergee,
but in add ton is diilgent in the dis
charge IF his duties. We refer to
William Loeb. Jr., who was appoint
ed to this Office by President Taft. i'm
mediately upon assuming the duties
of president. Mr.. Loeb. until the
close of the Roosevelt administration,
was private secretary to the President
and when MIR. Roosevelt visited Dem
ison several years ago. as many may
remember, he accompanied him and
rode through the city in the carriage
which carried the president. Since
he became Collector. he has made it
clear to the wealthy people of the
country. who visit abroad that they
are expected to render strict accounts
of the gouds, thew bring back with
them. He has convinced them that
it is not safe to try to smuggle their
purchases in. or to seek to void the
payment of full duties, by underval-
uation. There ia consterns ton among
the colony of Americans abroad. who
would escape the payment of custum
duties. on their return to the United
States. 1t is refreshing to know
that this branch Of the government
business is in the hands If one,
whose integrity and watchfulness are
such, as to insure strict compliance
with the law.
