LAREDO. TEXAS. Nov. 2f.--The
situation In Mexico appears to be Sc
ricus tonight. For the first time in
the fifteen years of operation, the
leased wire of the Associated Press,
from Laredo TO Monterey and Mexico
City tonight was Communicated by
the Mexican government on the plea
OF military need. The federal ,ele-
graphic circuit manager in Neuvo
Laredo was ordered 10 cut CT the
Laredo office of the Associ-
ated Press to prevent the CLEAN
ing OF information from mes
sages moving over the wire. These
Instructions emanated from the head
quarters of the federal telegraph of
fees in Mexico City wherein II was
explained that the government would
require the full control OF its tele-
graphic facilities throughout the
night

only reported to have been a'periect-

CHAMBERLAIN-JO NEW
WAGE PLAN, AS EXPLAINED
BY FIRM.

Dear Sir:-About the enclosed
from The JeffersOnian of 9th, will say
briefly: With the beginning of this
years business we stated to our
sales-people salaries would remain
as they were-subject to increase or
decrease on per cent. basis (and ex-
planned same). Result of first quar-
ter was, we paid in bonuses $1,293.
in excess of salaries to those who
made it. We reduced those who did
not on same basis. Most Of the latter
left.
The general result of the plan is
good. Our folks seem happy and
earnest, and we believe by this plan
the best will be developed in all.
1t was only necessary to request
our employees to enter and leave by
Hunter street door. 1t is on a good
street, entrance being on same floor
with time register, lockers, and other
necessary conveniences, much freer
from confusion, and used almost
uniformly by officers of the company
as we'll
Your editorial comment is true,
and we endorse every word Of it.

A MISUNDERSTANDING COR
RECTED.

Thomas e. Watson, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Mr.. Watson:-I see by an
Oklahoma paper, copying from The
JeffersOnian, that you claim the APP
peal has cut you off it's exchange list
There is evidently misunderstand-
ing. The Appeal has never received
your paper, so there could not be an
exchange.
If the Appeal has been going to
you it has been merely through the
courtesy of some comrade or because
the Appeal is willing to exchange.
Fairness is fairness, and we believe
you are fair enough to correct the
statement when you know the truth
of it.
If you wish an exchange with the
Appeal it will be given.
Very truly yours,
APPEAL TO REASON,
G. L. Phifer, Associate Editor.
Answer.
The Appeal to Reason has been
coming several years, and as | had
not been paying for it, I supposed
that it was one of our exchanges. l
do not keep up with the details of
our circulation department, and did
not know that the Appeal was not
getting The Jeffersonian.
Tnasmuch as | have forwarded my
coin, like a little man, let my sub
scription stand till the term expires.
If we are all alive and kicking at
that time, it will give me great pleas
ure to avail myself of the courteous
proposition of Brother Phifer.

You are doing the greatest work of

A FARMERS IDEAS AND SOME
EXPLANATIONS.

Dear Mr.. Watson:-As I write
the letter of my friend Spence lies
before me, which expresses my views
pretty we'll, and your answer, in
which you seek to show Spence he is
wrong. Now, [ am not writing to
fight the battle for Spence, thinking
him competent, with all the evidence
at his command, to fight his own
battle, but his letter, so far as it
goes, is $40 in accordance with my
views, wish to add few lines. l will
first take up your answer, in which
you give a number of articles that
the farmer has to buy. You say he
has to purchase food for man and
beast; then he is not farmer in it's
true sense, no farmer has to purchase
food for man or beast, he should
raise not only a sufficiency for him
self, but something to carry to town
when he goes to buy all the calico
and cloth he needs, and the several
little articles that you mention, is
nothing to compare with the high
prices of his corn, cotton, peas,
syrup, chickens, eggs, butter, peach
es, apples, watermelons, canteloupes,
beef, mutton, kid, and vegetables of
all kinds which every farmer ought
to raise, and will raise if these high
prices continue. I have not seen
such a time for the farmer since
1870, right after the Civil War,
when everything was high. The farm
er is certainly in the saddle once
more and will stay there if you will
give him high-priced everything, and
few more years of it, and this dear
old Southland will be the land of
milk and honey, our farm lands will
enhance in value, and soon the old
farmer will be riding in automobiles.
Who's growing about high prices?
It's the city people. Who's asking
Congress to investigate the cost of
living? It's the city people. Who in
vestigated a few years ago, when the
farmer could not get buckle and
tongue together? Nobody, as usual;
nobody investigates for the farmer.
Lie still, old farmer, saw wood and
say nothing, and let us have few
more years Of high prices, and it
will turn our young men back to the
farms which they left a few years
ago because they could not. make any
money. Give us high priced cotton,
and everything in proportion, and
we are satisfied.

SHOULD CONSULT HIS LAWYER.

Dear Mr.. Watson:-I have a ques-
ton of law to consult you on, please
give me your advice in the matter.
I was tried in Wilcox county for the
Offense of murder and was convicted
of manslaugter and was sentenced to
fifteen years in the pen. My attor-
neys made a motion for a new trial,
which was granted by the Supreme
Court, but while my motion was
pending I went on to the pen on my
own accord, as I had the choice to
go or stay in Jail. | went and served
four months before my new trial
was granted, and after new trial was

Dear Mr.. Watson:-I have already

office, but somebody is sure to get
left.
Well, Mr.. Watson, I would like

we are done. 1 hope you may live

Don't you see that high-price
cotton, corn, ETC., control the whole
matter? The Trusts, no doubt, are
making money out of it, but so is
the farmer. Who's kicking all this
dust boycotting the Meat Trust? Not
the farmer; poor old tool he does
not want to boycott the Meat Trust,
and every time the Meat Trust is
boycotted it is boycotting the farmer
Doesn't he make it all? Amt he the
backbone of the land? Doesn't he feed
the world? If so, then why raise
such howl against him? Can't you
bear for him to have a little pros
perity? Yours respectfully,
A FARMER
Answer.
The illustrations given by our cor
respondent are misleading.
Cotton has been high, from natural
causes. The crop of 1909 was short
100000 bales; and consequently
the law of supply and demand sent
the price up.
But it was the new tariff which
increased the cost of everything else.
Our friend should remember that
when cotton was down to $40 per
bale, lumber was selling at from &c.
to $14. per thousand. You could
buy rough lumber at the one price;
and the best of addressed and
matched ceiling and flooring, at the
other. His $40. would then have
bought full thousand feet of good
dressed lumber It will not do it
now Dressed lumber of good quality
will cost him $23. per thousand
So with plantation tools and i'm
plements. His $40 will buy about
half as much now, as it would, when
cotton was SC. per pound.
I grant you that landlord may
be more prosperous, under present
conditions; but the tenant, cropper,
and worker of his own land is not
flush of money. The howl against
avancing prices comes from the
average farmer as we'll as from the
mechanic, merchant and salaried
man
The revolt against the new tariff
and higher prices extends from the
extreme East to the furthest West;
and from Wisconsin to Florida.
And mark it, Mr.. Farmer! cotton
is on its way downward; and when
you have to pay the increased prices
in the stores with the proceeds of 10
or IL cents cotton, your mind will
undergo a change. T. E. W.
