Congressman Martinez South Dakota
made speech in congress the other
day in which he compared the situation
the farmer finds himself in, under the
present tariff and that of 1897 under the
Wilson tariff. It is we'll to consider
these things when a lot Of men are try
ing to stampede us out Of our common
sense.
Mr.. Martin showed that a bushel of
corn in 1897 would purchase pounds of
sugar; now it win purchase is pounds
of sugar He followed this with other
comparisons. Twelve years ago a
bushel of corn would purchase 5 gallons
of illuminating oil; now il willpurchase
II gallons Expressed in purchasing
value in coffee, in 1897 bushel of corn
would purchase 3 pounds of coffee; now
it will purchase 9 pounds of coffee. A
bushei of corn in 1897 would purchase
Is pounds Of barhed wire with which to
fence in the farm; today it will pur-
chase 80 pounds. The average hog in
1897 would buy 81 pounds of graduated
sugar, now it will bay 1872 pounds. That
hog in 1897 would bay 65 gallons of
illuminating oil, now il will buy 1879
gallons. In 1897 the hog brought az
pounds of coffee; now it viii bay lie
pounds Of COFFEE. in 1897 il would boy
227 pounds Of barbed wire; now it will
buy SS7 pounds.

REroRM 81 THE orHER rELLow

There is cogent truth in the following
remark of writer in recent number
of the Atlantic Magazine:
These are times when everybody is
reforming everybody else"
The public is occasionally affected
with sort of hysteria like certain
women.
Witness the race and chase after the
cause of the high cost of meat for in
stance, when little plain common
sense observation would show that the
price paid to the original source of
meat, the farmer, is phenomenally high.
Almost everybody is anxious to look
for the blame of this condition of
things everywhere and anywhere else
than in their own household. The old
fashioned virtue Of thrift, of careful
ecouonizing, is 10 longer practiced ex-
cept by the very poor. Excessive con-
sumption is one cause.
Reck less expenditure for automobiles
on the part If those who think they can
not afford to keep COW or are too
lazy to do such work, is seer OF every
hand. The meaning Of life with such
people is not the possession Of money
for the necessities of life. the payment
of honest debts and the laying up of a
surplus against the time Of old age.
Not this, but rather a senseless rage
for luxury, ili-timed and demoralizing
in its effect.
And so it is in politics. In the grand
rush for reforming the other fellow,
we are rapidly drifting into the belief
that the other fellow is liar, thief
and corruptionist, if he disagrees with
us about the fitness of such reform.
These are golden days for the shrieker
and bowler, the man who would make
US doubtful of the virtue of every other
man and woman. The senior editor of
this paper has received several letters
of late, accusing him of all sorts of
political nastiness because he has stood
up and was counted in support of Pre-
sident Taft.
We wonder sometimes in the words
Ct Shakespeare. il reason has fed to
british beasts?'f
Surely this rage for doubt Of an the
good we see in others, cannot be re-
form. II is about time for a return of
sober sense and reason in all the things
of life from politics down to automo-
biles. Governor Hoard

wolves exclusively upon me as district attorney.

preventative government and honesty IN public

exert my best efforts TO secure favorable action
by our legislature to bring this matter before
congress-
The Improvement Of public highways under the
supervision of the state, with such judcious dis
tribution Of state appropriations for that pur.
pose should receive general support Of all the
people.
The agitation for the preservation of our natural
resources. such IS water power. forests and min
erals should not be lost sight of at the hands Of the
peoples servants and this is especially true to
members of the legislature in this state.
favor the adoption Of county option law.
with the proviso that. before taking effect, such

tirely proper. when it concerns a question upon
