UNLOADING ON THE FARMER

Eighteen months ago Republican
papers all over the land were boast
ing about "the prosperity of the
farmer" He was pictured as the
giant bounuful with his bumper
crops" to fesd the nation and enough
to spare for foreign commerce. There
was great rejoicing then over the
importation of food stuffs to keep
up that fiction of commerce COM
monty called "the balance of trade, >"
and the export tables for 1908 show
enormous shipments of farm pro-
ducts to foreign markets.
Now that lovely story about Farm
err Bountiful and his bumper crops"
Is entirely reversed. There Is no
presidential campaign on now. And
the farmer Is being blamed for the
high cost of living and famine pric-
es" and a wicked willingness co
starve the people of the cities.
The farmer who got all swelled up
with pride when the g. o. p. poll
ticlans were patting him on the back
and calling him a bully good fellow
who owned an everlasting debt TO
the &. o. p. for his prosperity on
which .ccount he shoull be a willing
protege of the Republican party,
finds himself stigmatzed as unde-
Cirnh1p cn1Ggh aiffuon
by the same political spokesmen who
are trying to find an apology for
their party because of existing con-
dtions.
Seems like a sudden change of
tune from the boast Of bumper
crops last year and year before to
the charge that the farmer Is just
deliberately not raising enough so as
to boost the price OF what he has to
spare.
But the charge that the farmer is
not raising enough is a malicious
falsehood so long as a bushel of
wheat or a pound of any kind of
food is exported to foreign markets.
Let those who are slandering the
farmer now remember that.
BY the next presidential campaign,
however, the farmer will be told
that he is a specially favored protege
of the g. o. p and the politicians of
that stamp will be telling him again
that he Is a bully good fellow
till election day.

A QUESTION AND REPLY

''To the editor: Downward reyls-
ionists declare that free trade is n
success In England, If this Is so, why
Is 1t that an attempt Is being mad
under the leadership OF Joseph Cham
berain to return to protection "A
reader"
Joseph Chamberlain movement
is that OF the wealthy who believe
revenue for maintaining the govern
ment should be raised principally by
leyying n tax on necessities, instead
OF by the present method of taxing
the incomes and inhcrltances OF the
rich.
British manufactures who have
read Of the tremendous profits OF
tariff beneiCarles in the United
States are also behind the Chamber
lain movement to overthrow free
trade for protection.
Under free trade these are practi-
cally no trusts In Great Britain
Those combinations of manufactur-
ers who have tried to organize trusts
under free trade. and have failed,
would like to have protection to real
ize their ambitions
Some of the smaller OF the British
politicians are fighting for the estab-
ment OF a protective system because
the moment It comes into existence
It win pay to be In politics, Tariff
rates are a commodity that are
bought and sold In the United States
for instance the sugar trust donates
a certain amount OF money TO the Re
publican campaign fund with the eX-
pectation that certain rates on raw
and refined sugar-and also certain
jokors will be retained In the sugar
schedule Of the tariff bill. which will
assure a monopoly to the trust, and

er in excessive profits not only the
amount paid into the campaign fund

AGED PEDESTRIAN
READY FOR JAUNT
Weston Leaves For Los Angeles
to Begin Long Walk

New York. Jan. 24.-Edward Pay
son Weston, the veteran pedestrian,
left this morning by train for Los An
geles. 1t Is from that city that he
intends starting on Feb. 1 for another
Of his coast-to-coast walks. Mr.. Wes-
ton, who is 70, says he has had many
letters since he announced he was
going to try 1t again. advising him
that he was too old for pranks like
that. He says he doesn't see why a
man. who is only TO- cannot walk 40
miles a day and keep 1t up for 100
days, and especially when he rests on
Sundays, which Is Weston's custom.
On this trip Weston will not stop
anywhere to give little talks as he
used to do. He Is out for a real good
record this time. The first stages of
his journey will be along the line Of
the A. II. & S. f. railroad. A hand.
car will accompany him, bearing sup
plies. This is done by orders of
President Ripley himself. Mr.. Weston
expects to pass his seventy-flrst birth
day at Trinidad, Colo, where he will
be on March 10. II he holds to his
schedule.

TOUCHED A TENDER SPOT

One of the Columbus papers, in its
account OF opposition chat had de-
veloped against any investigation of
the high cost of living, quotes Speak
er Mooney of the house as saying
without reservation that he thought
the Importance of the whole matter
had been greatly overestimated".
1t is important to know just how
the speaker feels about 1t because
he stands as the exponent of Presi-
dent Taft before che Ohio legisla-
ture. In declaring that the impor-
tance OF getting at the bottom facts
about the high cost of living Is
greatly overestimated" Speaker
Mooney doubtless rejects the views
and sentiments Of the president.
II should be remembered that
President Taft closed his regular
message to congress at the opening
OF the present session with long
argument in which he sought to con-
vince the people that the high cost
OF living Is not due to the tariff law
enacted at the special session last
summer.
Governor Harmon, therefore,
soems TO have touched tender spot
on the political anatomy at Wash
ington when he said to the Ohio
Legislature in special message ad-
vlslng thorough investigation into
causes OF the present cost of living:
"or, If the fault lies partly In the
laws OF congress your judgement as
to their effect on the people of Ohio
will have great weight"
Aye, there's the rub. 1t is easy
TO understand why Speaker Mooney,
after Governor Harmon's special
message. was read In the Ohio legis-
lature could say without reservation
tprobably inspired" from the White
House) that he thought the import
ance OF the whole matter had been
greatly overestlmated."

BALLINGERS BRAVADo

Secretary Balllnger announces that
he will not resign under fire. "The
secretary showed some heat" says
a Washington report, and said, "a
don't intend to resign while there
is anything TO fight This cannot be
made too plain and II Is final"
That's fine as well as final. Just
suits Democrats The longer he stays
In the cabinet the hotter he makes
II for Taft.
And If he will not resign while
there Is anything to fight he may
hold on to the end, for there's al
ways the people, you know. His
bravado Is to be admired or despised,
just as you choose to look at 1t. He
could have made his reason for hold
Ing on a little clearer If he had said
he would not resign while there is
anything to fight for" IL means the
same thing to the Guggenhelms eth
er way
Knowing what Balllnger's bravado
means, responsibility henceforth
rests entirely on the president.
Pinchot would not resign under
fire either. He was pushed.
1t remains to be seen whether Ball
ingers bravado exceeds that high
sense OF honor, official courtest and
usefulness set forth by the president
In his letter to Plnchot.

MOUNT VERNON, OHIO
HARMoN's WAY

Does any one suppose that il Har-
mon had not been elected governor
that a suit to recover the graft of
$141,0OO by former state treasur-
er would have been brought? 1t was
through the action of Gov. Harmon
in securing the information and
turning it over to the attorney gen
eral, accompanied by public state
ment of the facts, that caused the
suit to be brought. Not only will the
state OF Ohio thus recover large
sum Of money, but the startling ex-
posure of grating will serve as a
check on dishonest state officials.

Postal Cards Ready For Dis
tributiOn Before Long

Distribution of the new design of
postal cards has commenced and a
supply is expected at the local office
before long.
In the ordinary card the head of
the late President Mckinley will ap-
pear, as now, but q much better like
ness OF the martyred president has
been selected. On the new mail
card, intended for index purposes
and for social correspondence, a like,
ness of President Lincoln, Will ap-
pear. The two-cent international
card will bear portrait of General
Grant.
A novel and pleasing innovation
has been made for the double or re-
ply postal card. On the first half
appear portrait of George Wash
ington, while the stamp on the sec
ond half will be likeness Of Martha
Washington.
The borders of the stamps on all
of the cards will be diversified In
design. On all Of the cards the words
Postal Card" required by the Uni
versai Postal Union convention, VIII
appear on borders of the stamp, and
not as an separate inscription.
The paper to be used is the best
manufactured for the purpose. 1t
will be more attractive than the pa
per used in the present cards, and
will take ink" better than the paper
now employed

LEGISLATORS WILL
TAKE SHORT REST
Code Committees Given Week
to Complete Report

Columbus, o., Jan. 24.-So far as
Legislative news is concerned the
present week will be devoid Of fea-
ture. both branches of the general as
ing for one week in order to give the
committees at work on the report of
the state codifying commission
clear field to complete the task and
have their report ready for submis-
sion to the senate and house next
Monday.
At today's session the hoppers will
be uncovered and flood of Hills is
expected to be deposited before the
hour of adjournment arrives. 1t is
highly probable that most Of the bills
presented will he referred to commit
tees and will be considered during
the recess, so that when the legisla-
tors return to Columbus they will be
prepared to settle down in earnest
to the long grind that is before them.
OF the bllls to be introduced the
public utilities measure drafted by
Representative Woods of Medina, and
which is said to have received the
approval Of. President Taft, and the
taxation system as advocated by
Governor Harmon are the two meas
ures which will undoubtedly attract
the most attention of the session. but
1t Is said to be uncertain whether
either will hold the entire strength
of the political parties back Of them.
Redrafted, and a more comprehen-
sive measure than the house passed
last year, the Woods state tax com
mission bill will be introduced In the
house today and the fight for Its pas
sage led by Representative Lawrence
K. Langdon of Warren county.

One feature of our work during

Gus increase in the Bible-school and
the growth OF the Adelphian Bible
class which Is now recognized as
one of the greatest Mems Bible class
es in the world The average at
tendance of this class during the
past year was between 90 and 1OU.
The greatest attendance being the
latter part of the year, This class
now numbers about 500 men. The
largest attendance up to date was
331. The unique features of the
Adelphian class are most highly com
menaed by Sunday-school special
lists.
While the work of every depart-
ment OF the church during the past
year has been most gratifying, the
Bible school shows the greatest In,

far in the history of the school,

owner, had no protection against
delinquency for the reason that
quite frequently he was not adj
vised of the special assessments
levied.
Another important work ac-
complished by Mr.. Ramsay dur
ing his legislative career was the
defeat of the bill authorizing
municipalities to sell their water
to outside communities, that is
to say, to communities not with
in the corporate limits. This
measure was introduced at a time
when Seattle was in greatest
need of its entire water sup
ply, and when the city was
believed TO be confronted with
the danger of a water scarcity in
case of a confagration. Mr..
Ramsay personally directed a
fight against the bill and was
successful in accomplishing its
defeat.
During the same session Mr..
Ramsay assisted materially in
the passage of the Alaska Yukon
Pacific Exposition legislation,
whereby the required appropria-
ton for the exposition was OBJ
tanned. At the close Of the ses-
sion he was accorded a dinner by
his colleagues from King county,
which was given at the Butler
grill to wish him bon voyage on
a trip 10 Mexico and the Orient.
While on this trip he made it his
business to advertise Seattle and
the exposition. President J. E.
