Such policy, and it is pursued in

Such policy, and it is pursued in
nowhere save to dependency or in
different prosperity.
So that one thing the Farmers
union has endeavored to encourage
has been personal ownership of the
farms of it's members. against that
vicious system Of cropping" by
which the tenant is little better than
slave to the land holder.
The man who does not own his
farm is likely to be almost constantly
in debt to his land lord. From one
years end to another, his obligations
are perpetual and self-renewing. He
must consult his landlord regarding
what crops and how much of each
crop he shall cultivate. Often he is
under debt for the very necessities of
life, and in a few cases I have known
his type to drag out a handto-mouth
existence
l sound this warning now, so far as
regards the south as well as every
other section of the nation, that at the
galloping rate lands are enhancing
owning your own farm a few years
hence will be a luxury. Today, only
certain amount of enterprises, self
denial and thrift is essential The
process is open to the humblest and
poorest farmer in America.
Hand in hand with homecoming,
should go the policy of scientific and
diversified farming.
During the panic Of 1907 I know
several wise farmers in the immedi-
ate neighborhood OF my home, who
raised on their places every product
necessary to the sustenance of man
and beast.
These men weathered the toughest
part Of the panic almost in Ignorance
of the existence Of such a thing. They
would not, in face have known of the
existence of a panic had 1t not been
for the Strengthened circumstances o1
their less wide-awake friends, many
of whom had to borrow money with
which to buy food brought from out
side the state when that food should
have been raised upon their own
acres.
we are not yet lHlhiule W poiiN'
in this country. The visitation OF
1907 will sooner or later be repeated
II you raise your own food sup
plies as well as food for your cattle
and stock you will not feel the pincf
of panic.
| In this connection, it is hardly nee
essary for me to say that diversified
agriculture means you shall make
cotton largely a surplus crop.
The farmer who "single shots or
cotton is putting all his eggs in one
basket. He is paying tribute to the
western cattle and grain dealer ou
of his cotton money for the supplies
with which to raise his cotton crop
He is mortgaging his main money
crop before the latter goes in the
ground and that is the worst econ
omic fallacy that could be perpetrat
ed
I know that 1t will require self-sac
rifice for a time, the denying one'i
self of small luxuries, both to owr
ones own farm and, perhaps, to prac
tice diversified farming. The game

Other Arrests
in Sugar Cases
Are Probable
Announcement that Three More Men
Have Made Full Confessions
Foreshadows Sensations. =

NEW YORK. June 11.-Hint Of further
prosecutions in connection with the sugar
under-weighing frauds was given today by
Special Prosecutor Henry l.. Stimson. when
the two men convicted last night were
brought up for sentence.
Preceding this a respite was won by
Charles o. Heike and Ernst w. Gerbracht
Judge Martin suspended sentence until
August 30, pending an appeal. Bail was
fixed at 200 each, the present bail of
S., 900 for Heike and $4,000 for Gerbracht
being continued until Wednesday.
James F. Dandernagle was paroled on his
own recognizance. 1t is considered doubt
full if his case is further prosecuted.
James A. Halligan, the checker, and
Harry w. Walker, the assistant dock
superintendent, who pleaded guilty, were
sentenced to three months each on Black
wells Island.
Sentence in the case of Jeane Volker,
who is confined to his bed in dying con-
dition, was suspended.
Adding to their attorneys plea for Glenn
ercy for HalIgan, Voelker and Walker,
Prosecutor Stimson made the announce
ment that since the men had pleaded guilty
they had made a full confession and the
government now was acting on the in
formation that had been received from the
men. This appeared to foreshadow further
prosecutions and caused something of a
sensation.

CHICAGO, June 11-(Special Telegram)
Judges of the United States circuit court
this afternoon denied the motion for a
preliminary injunction made by the Pull
man company and the Great Northern
Railway company, restraining the Inter-
state Commerce commission from reducing
the price of berths in sleeping cars.
Judge Grosscup spoke for the judges of
the court at O'Clock after they had
listened to arguments for four hours, say
ing:
Additional facts, which Attorney Lind
ley, representing the Great Northern rail-
way, had introduced in his argument,
should have been presented to the Inter-
state Commerce commission.
Railroads ought to take notice that
we hesitate about having cases brought
here that have not been before the COM
mission" he added, in denying the motion
for the preliminary injunction.
The Pullman and the Great Northern
companies sought a preliminary injunction
restraining the commission from reducing
the rates of berths in sleeping cars between
Chicago and points in the northwest. The
commission ordered the price of lower
berths reduced the order to become ef-
fective June l. The Pullman company be-
gan a suit Ia the United States circuit
court, in an effort to prevent the enforce
ment of the order. The commission con-
tinued the date, when the order is to
become effective until July l.

MONEY MARKET LOOKS GOOD

ARMIsT1cE RESTORES CONFIDENCE

100000 of Bonds of His
Roads.

NEW YORK. June 11.-(Specal Tee-
gram.)-This has been a spectacular week
In the stock market and the further rise
of stocks on Wednesday was as sensational
as the drop when the government began
suit against the railroads last week.
Wednesdays rise did not remain perma-
nent. much to the regret of the investors.
Up till today the market sagged with
tendency downward. The undertone has
been and is still, uncertain-too prone to
influence and not firm and unshaken as
1t should be In a normal market.
Aside ffom stock market operations, this
has beens a good week Tor the New York
money market. Local banks gained in
their currency operations $3150,OOO. Ac-
cording to the Saturday returns there was
a gain of $3,s56oOO on operations with the
interior institutions which offset a loss
Of $7O6,OOO to the government on operations
with the United States subtreasury. OF
currency $2,232,OOO was received from in
terror institutions, and $2,S76,OOO was
shipped direct.
The action OF the Bank OF England in
reducing its minimum discount rate from
S14 to per cent was expected, hence it
created no effect here.
No Signs of Trouble.
The instability OF the stock market Is
due to several things One of the principal
causes is the Washington program. With
congress tinkering with affairs and in
stitutions which form the business founda-
tions Of this country, the market is apt
to be little shaky The small menacing
attitude of the federal power toward
organized capital, the restricting features
Of the administration railroad bill, the
postal savings bank bill, and the apparent
aim of the government judiciary depart
ment to interfere In railroad matters all
constitute a series of causes whose effect
Is uncertain. Weather conditions, which
are always a factor, owing to crops are
very unsatisfactory.
However, there Is no pesslmsm. There
Is no cause for gloom. Because Wall street
has seen fit to dump several million var
ious stocks upon a suspecting market and
get away with it, there is no cause for
alarm.
Viewed from dispassionate angle there
is nothing in the railroad situation to cause
unrest. President Taft and the railroad
heads have agreed upon at least tempo
rary terms. The armistce will become
permanent before danger develops. As evil
dence of this the Hartman system has
placed orders with the Baldwin Locomo-
tive Works in Philadelphia for eighty
