REPLY TO DR.. DIBBLE'S STORY
Origin of the Story in Text Books of
40 Years Ago. Now Relocated to
Rear Shelves to Gather Rust.

The following article in reply to DR..
Dibble's story of the origin of the word
tariff as published IN last weeks
friend of The True Northerner:
"Dr. Dibble's story 10 the last North
erner about the Island of Tenaraf, or
more properly speaking, Tarifa, can be
found in the text books on political
economy used 10 most American COL
Ieges 80 and 10 years ago. 1t was
stock story of the free trade college pro-
fessors of those days. The writer we'll
remembers the 'gusto' with which his
instructor in that science related it.
1t must be borne ia mind that the
professors who wrote these books, lived
on the sale at fixed price of the books,
and on their salaries as college profess
ors. The cheaper the wages OF labor and
the price of labor's products, the more
their fixed income would buy, so very
naturally they taught that low prices
and cheap labor were a blessing. The
Tenaratf or Tarifa story, told with vari-
atoms to suit circumstances, was con-
sidered an transferable argument by
the apostles Of cheapness in those days.
The experiences OF this nation with
the fruits OF such doctrines during the
SO to 81 period of low prices and fnan-
cial disaster caused such books to be
relegated to the rear shelves, where,
during these many years of prosperity,
they have gathered the rust to which
the good doctor refers"

Kelley the Man of the Hour.


There can be no question at
the present time concerning the
identity of the man who is oc-
cupying the center of the politi-
cal stage in Michigan. No one
can attempt to deny the state
ment that Lieut.. Governor Pat
rick H. Kelley is, so far as state
politics is concerned, the verita-
BILE man Of the hour.
In the face of the most rldicul-
Gus claims as to strength and of
much beating of tom toms by the
upper peninsula candidates
friends on every topic except the
one of interest to the state at
large, Mr.. Kelley spoke forth
fearlessly on what he considered
to be the prime questions of the
campaign and the instant atten-
ton which he commanded was
given food for thought in his
clean and concise outline of the
need for a re- assessment of min
ing property.
In a single day he swung the
discussions which had hitherto
been touching on generalities on
ly, into a clear cut and we'll de-
fined channel. Since that time
Mr.. Kelley and the method
which he proposed for the re-
assessment of mining property,
have been the sole topics of
newspaper conversation through
out the state.
The lieutenant governors de-
claration was closely followed
by those of his opponents, but
neither of these announcements
ELECTED more than passing COM
ment. Then the train of thought
drifted back to Mr.. Kelley's argu-
ment again. So far not single
state journal has found aught for
criticism. On the other hand,
commentator has come from
every section of the state. Warm
adherents of other candidates
have remarked that Mr. Kelley
did not declare himself openly on
the method of taxation, but the
overwhelming sentiment has
been along the line of that ex-
pressed by the Lansing State
Republican which said; "Mr. Kel-
ley makes no rash promises,
threats or boasts as to what he
will do if he is elected Cover nor,
as chief executive of the state, to
secure prompt and equitable
appraisal and assessment of the
mining properties of the great
iron and copper mining compan-
les and then apply such correct
i've measures as seem wise and
just.
Evidently such remarks,
square toed and right from the
shoulder" as the Kalamazoo
Press puts it, "met with the APP.
proval of the state at large" 1t
is hard to find fault with so hon.
est and open a plan as Mr.. Kel-

The Farmer.

In a recent speech on "Ihe
Tariff and Prices" in the house
of representatives, Congressman
E. L. Hamilton, made the follow
ing reference to the farmer:
"Among the causes assigned
for the failure Of farm products
to keep pace with present de-
mands are:
Scarcity of farm help and con-
seouent inability of farmers to
obtain the best results from their
lands.
The drift of young men and
women from the farms to towns,
thereby reducing the number of
original producers.
Non. scientific farming.
Carelessness in the housing
and protection of tools and
machinery.
Lack of the proper care in the
selection of seed.
Failure to make due return to
the soil for what is taken from
it.
Waste of feed on scrub stock,
when less feed would maintain
better stock.
Neglect to properly prune,
spray, and care for orchards.
Failure to devote sufficient at
tention to the breeding and care
of poultry.
But here and there in every
locality scientific farmers are set
ting an example to their neigh
bors, and the grade of farming
is constantly rising.
In my Judgment the farmer is
receiving only fair price for
what he has to sell, but middle
men are charging too much for
handling and trying to make the
public believe the farmer is re-
sponslble for the prices they
charge.
The time has gone by, how
ever, when shifty gentleman can
take toll of the farmer and toll
out of the customer and fool both
at the same time.
For years the farmer has been
at the mercy Of every trade com
bination that sold him supplies
or handled his product.
Now he is prosperous and is
not obliged to dump his crops
upon the market the next day
after harvest to stop interest on
some debt, but he can hold or
sell, as his judgment dictates,
and by means of the telegraph
and the telephone and free mail
delivery he is in touch with the
markets of the world-in touch
with the thought of the world.
The farmer has come into his
own, and l am glad of it.
He has been caricatured by
cheap city humorists, preyed up
on by grasshoppers, locusts and
money sharks, and misled by
predatory politicians. Now he
is able to take care of himself.
He is one of the safest. sound
est, cleanest elements in our
civilization.
The city would be dried up,
rotted, or exploded but for the
country that came to town day
before yesterday.
Too much of the country has
been coming to town, though.
1t is said that so per cent of
our population is being contest
ed in cities and towns. That
movement ought to stop, and the
people who live in alleys and
work in sweatshops ought to

fBv Associated Press.)

Washington, Mar. 2.-Following an
animated debate on bill giving
legislative authority for future ap'
propriations to purchase sites for
the construction of buildings as res
licences of diplomatic officials abroad,
the house today placed its seal of
disapproval upon all such projects.
The measure carried no appropriation
and limited the amount that might
be appropriated for such purposes by
future congresses in any one year to
$500, 900.
The proposition was advocated by
Representative Lowden of Illinois,
and was opposed on both the demo-
cratic and republican sides of the
chamber. Representative Prince de-
clared that the policy of providing
such residences would increase the
expense of living abroad on the part
of diplomatic officials and make it
impossible for poor men to accept
such posts.
The final vote showed 100 against
and "a members favoring tle propo-
sition.

! in the matter of obtaining posses
sion of the books of Armour & Co.,
