orally 6a1l points net higher. The opening
was steady at an advance OF point on
August. but 2G6 points lower on later
months in response to lower cables, yester-
days late forecast for showers in South
Texas and the private reports OF rain. in
North Texas Liverpool cables Indicated
that reports OF general rains in Texas had
reached that market and had been respon-
s!ble for the decline there, but Liverpool
flrmed as soon as the local market opened !,

Cotton futures opened quiet at decline

WAGE FARMERS AND THE TARIFF

The republican party gives
three reasons for its support of
the protective tariff tax-infant
industries, higher wages and differ
ence in the cost of production, as
compared with other countries.
The first is a deception and a
fraud. There are no industries in
our land that need protection now,
for those industries that cannot
stand alone nver will sit upright
unaided and it is financial folly to
subsidize them.
AS to protection enabling us to
give a higher wage than we could
otherwise do, the men who
purchase this protection tax do it
for themselves alone and will keep
every cent of it to spend on their
passions or to add to the colossal
money power.
There is no real difference in the
cost of production. The proof is
that our manufacturer now sell
their products in foreign markets
while competing with foreign cost
of production and could sell even
more cheaply if freed of the so
per cent tar IF tax 10 benevolently
levied in their favor by our
national lawmakers.
Labor is cheaper in Europe
only seeingly. In dollars and
cents it appears cheaper, but in
substance, in the necessities of
life, there is no difference. For
labor in ali lands must be fed and
clothed or it cannot work. Labor
in Europe is as we'll fed and clothed
as it is here.
How long will government of
the people, for the people and by
the people" be defrauded, de.
ceived, humbugged?

PERPETUAL MOTION

Little Jimmy had arrived at the
questioning age. He had just made
an inquiry concerning perpetual
motion of his father.
mo-" said his father; nobody
has ever discovered perpetual
motion YETI.
But Jimmy was not quite satisfied.
What is perpetual motion like,
dad?" he asked next.
His father thought a moment.
"Why, it's pretty hard to say,
Jimmy" he replied, but it's some
thing that keeps going and going
forever. Here is an illustration.
| once saw a woman in a tram who
had put on her gloves. She then
tried to button her right hand
glove, but she found that she must
take off her left hand glove to do
so. She took it off ard buttoned
the right hand glove, Then she
saw that in order to button her
left hand glove she must take off
her right hand glove. which she
did. Then she put on her left
hand glove, buttoned and put on
the right hand one again. But
