 PINCHBACK TAYLOR.
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1911-02-10

About every paper in the country
has been taking rap at the Canadian
reciprocity treaty. From the columns
which have been devoted to it, one
would think that the personal welfare
of large share of our people was
bound up in this proposition. The
proposed agreement has afforded an
excellent opportunity for every two
by-four politician to try to make poll
tical capital by rushing to the defense
of the farmers wheat against the flood
of Canadian pauper wheat which will
rush in here if the tariff is removed.
Not being in politics we are free to
say that we believe the Canadian re-
ciprocity agreement should be carried
thru. the artificial trade barrier
between Canada and the United States
is an absurdity. and except for re-
venue purposes has no more justifica-
ton than would a similar barrier be-
tween the states of the union By re-
moving that barrier in part, trade will
flow more in it's natural channels. the
market for some of the farmers pro-
ducts here will be enlarged, lumbe"
will be somewhat cheapened, Mime
sofa will retain it's leading place in
the milling industry, and the found
alton will be laid for closer union
rather than greater separation from
Canada.

NJ The eastman distance tariff bill is
sreceiving much attention from the
people of the state just now, and some
defects have been exposed. In fact,
an infexible distance tariff leads to
some absurdities, which have been
made the most of by the opponents of
the bill. On the other hand, there
are also many abbsurdities in the pre-
sent schedules and the large cities
have been built up at the expense of
the country towns, and this has its
effect in producing the dangerous
trend cityward. Probably some sort
of a compromise should be effected,
and it looks now as if this would be
done.

The Next Speaker.

James Hay. Jr., writes in HUI
man Life for February as follows !:
"He Champ Clark is a great ad-
mirer of Theodore Roosevelt, al
though it is doubtful if he and the
former President ever worked together
on a political proposition. He likes
Roosevelt for his energy and industry,
but, in party matters. the admiration
and affection cease with startling and
sudden abruptness.
"In speech in Congress he once
said:
1T is claimed that Colonel Roose-
welt is better than his party. This he
could easily be without running any
risk of being translated, after the
manner of Elijah in chariot of fire
by reason of his goodness. But, what
ever his virtues, whatever his faults,
whatever else he may be. he is not a
Democrat.
"With Cannon about to lay down
the scepter of power which will go
down in history as one of the chief
causes of a great political upheaval,
it is natural that there should be
speculation at the Capitol as to how
Clark record will compare with that
of the Gear from Illinois, You can
hear these questions any day.
Will he be as good a Speaker as
Cannon?'
6 How will he do after Uncle Joe
is down on the floor?'
"They can be anwsered only by the
things Clark will do, but there is one
safe bet: Clark will always try to
keep his party intact. He will give
instances of how the soft answer
turneth away wrath, and he would be
the last man to try deliberately to
ALLEVIATE democrat from the fold of
regularity. He is one of the original
Neutrality-suspicious.. He has mem
orized that little motto about, United
we stand; divided we fall.

A Question of Binding.

A clergyman, anxious to introduce
some new and neatly printed hymn
books. directed the clerk to give out
notice in regard to them Immediately
after the sermon. The clerk, how
ever, had notices of his own to give
out with reference to the baptism of
infants. Accordingly at the close of
the sermon he announced "AH those
having children they wish baptized
please send their names at once. !"
The clergyman, who was deaf. suppos-
ing that the clerk was giving out the
hymn book notice. Immediately rose
and said: "And I want to say for the
benefit for those who haven any, that
they may be obtained of me any day
between 3 and a o'clock; the ordin-
airy little ones at Is cents. and spe-
cial ones with red backs at Is cents
each.'

Some Suggestions Con-
corning the Manipulation
of Public Opinion for
Corporation Purposes.

here there and everywhere ch,med in
with a resounding note of protest.
I The result is state of sentiment, al
most wholly mechanical. hich is be-
Jogging the issue and making it ap-
pear that even the communities to be
most benefited by the bill are up in
arms against it.
The transportation trust. backed by
big business, is mighty power; when
it has an ally in the city press it is
almost omnipotent. Senator eastman
is making a fight which has seldom
been paralleled in the strength and in
genuity of the opposition.
Public opionion is also being mis-
directed in connection with reappor-
tionment. The dailies are attempt
ing to arouse the entire state by
false analysis of the present status
of that issue in the Legislature.
There has not yet been vote in
either House or Senate which could
be construed as test on reapportion-
ment. The Hackney -Congdon resolu-
ton which was voted down in the SEN
ate, and passed the House, arbitrarily
fixed the maximum number of repre-
sentatives for both branches. Several
senators voted against it because they
preferred, for various reasons, to
wait until the bill itself was present.
ed. Yet they have been paraded be-
fore the whole state as enemies of a
fair rcapportionment bill.
While am suggesting general leg
islative conditions, there is another
unknown influence that should be con-
idered. Bribery by big special in
terests has been gradually disap-
pearing. Aside from financial assis-
lance in the conduct of campaigns in
certain cases, Legislators have prac-
tically no connection with the ex-
chequer of any organization. But
as other sources of revenue have grown
less, Legislative side lines" have
been developed. The selfish. personal
element has appeared more and more.
Log rolling. and petty graft, has be-
come a greater menace to good leg
islation. But more deplorable and
disgusting than all else are the "hold
up schemes that have been consum-
ated in the past or are in process of
incubation.
The present legislature is we'll
worth watching. 1t is the most i'm
portant and interesting in the history
of the state.

County option was disposed of in the

friends of the bill claimed. The cause
of county option has made a steady
gain at each session of the legisla-
ture but many persons in favor of

KEEPING 1T UP.

It would indeed be deplorablt
should Governor Hadley's mad de
sire to keep in the limelight, assisted
by the frantic efforts of certain news
papers in the state, have hte effect o.
discrediting the proposed cross state
highway from Kansas City to St
Louis. The Governors efforts tc
advertise himself have become SC
nauseating to the people of the state
that there is now danger of his work
ing great harm to the present enter
prise of constructing permanent
state road.
The Governor will have absolutely
nothing to do with the building of the
road and probably but little to do
with the selection of the route, ex-
cept perhaps with such influence as
he may attempt to WELD with the
gentlemen who will decide the ques-
ton, and although he is undoubtedly
making himself extremely ridiculous
in his scramble for publicity, this fact
should be ignored, and the main
issue of constructing state highway
should not be lost sight of in the dis
gust which the average Missouri citi-
zen feels for so supreme an egotist.
Mr.. Hadley's career as governor
has been one continuous campaign of
self advertising and he is still keep
ing up the work. y
Last week it was a gubernatorial
iunket to the southwest, duly herald
ed, to put few little fishes in the
placid streams of the Ozarks, and
furnished an admirable opportunity
for the Governor to deliver some
stale speeches to the natives of a |
territory he had so recently discov-
cred and furnish his Execllency a !
delightful boating and fishing outing.

tomobile ride. Next week it will be |

VOTE FOR A NEW CAPITOL.

We predict that the voters of Bates
county will on next Tuesday give an
overwhelming majority for the new
State Capitol proposition. We pre-.
dict this because this is one of the
large agricultural counties of the
State and our people among the most
progressive of her citizens. That the
imperative need for new building is
manifest and the amount asked is
very reasonable. A failure to vote
this proposition by the people of the
State would be a serious reflection
upon Missouri and impair our credit
abroad, besides being short sighted
policy even from a financial view. A
State must furnish a building to house
the officials and preserve her valu-
able records. To vote this PROPOSE
ton down is only to put off the day
when it must be done. The legisla-
ture provided that in case the SO, $780,
600 proposition, to be voted on next
Tuesday, be defeated that PROPOSE
ton to vote $1,000, 600 in bonds for a
new capitol be voted on at the next
Election, which would only
require a majority vote to carry.
This proposition must receive a two
birds majority.
So far as we can learn there is little
" no opposition throughout the State
md The Times would like to see
Bates county we'll up to the front in
he size of her vote and bigness Of the
majority for the proposition.

Corn dope" From Jordan.

Some errors have appeared in the
press from time to time relative to
the corn situation. Some of them
have been merely typographical and
should not do mischief, but some
have been relative to fact and these
have, or may, do some harm. The
statement has appeared in some plac-
es that when corn tassels during a
hot wind the corn is ruined" The
facts are, as far as we know them,
that when the tassel appears during a
hot wind the pollen is likely to be kill
ed or at least injured, and if all the
tassels appeared at the same time or
there were hot winds during the en-
tire time of tasseling then the "crop
might be ruined" but the corn in
field will tassel through period of
from week to ten days and none of
the hot winds have lasted that long.
A stalk whose tassel has been kill
ed may still produce good ear, as it
may be pollinated from other tassels.
Corn breeders often remove tassels
from half or more of the stalks in the
patch yet produce fancy crop of
well-filled ears. There are myriads
of pollen grains in each tassel and
during this time much pollen is blow
ing in the air, and field may have
many Of its tassels KILLED" yet pro-
duce good crop, while the KILLED"
tassel would be useless. Where
corn was tasseling during those three
days of hot winds a we'll
filled crop of ears can scarcely be
looked for, yet the crop may be by
40 means "ruinedd ;. These tassefs
hat are dead are lighter in color and
appear more chaffy than those not so
affected.
Now, as to the conservation of
moisture.
The mower Wheel will not put

Insurgents to Kill Tariff Legis.
latiOn.

Washington, D. c., July 9th,
potent influence of party name is al
that stands in the way of passinf
radical tariff legislation in Congress
Personal pride of authorship is a
additional stumbling block, but thu
really great trouble is the old, Ole
force of partisanship.
Both the Democrats and the insur.
gent Republican are committed to re-
vision of the tariff downward. Both
sets Of politicians are specifically ,un.
| der pledge to lower tariff taxation
upon clothing-to reduce the wooden
and cotton schedules. Also both
vigorously contend that, in as much
as the Canadian trade agreement will
establish free trade in agricultural
products with our most serious CON-
petitors, compromising reductions
should be granted upon those manu-
featured articles most needed by
farmers-agricultural implements and
hardware of all sorts.
The Democrats possess majority
of the House, and, hence, have been
able to put theie own programme
through that body. Tariff revision
Republicans and Democrats easily
have majority of the Senate. The
House has not yet passed its cotton
bill, but will do so within a week or
ten days. But the wool bill and the
farmers free list measure for long
time have been on the Senate calen-
dar. The wool bill will be voted up
on in the ripper house next Thursday
and the farmers free list a week
from Tuesday. In this situation, of
course, the question on every tongue
is: "Why do not the two factions in
the Senate, who profess to want ap-
proximately the same thing, get to-
gether and accomplish something's"
AS matter of fact, the House wool
bill in many particulars contains ex-
actly the rates so eloquently cham
2ioned in 1909 by the late Jonathan
P. Doll!ver of Iowa, then spokesman
