GRANGE NOTES
By H. w. M.

Will some well informed
Granger tell US why Sheriff Joe
Dennis is riding on that free
tramway pass?
1t was a mighty bright citizen
who tipped a dollar to see what
party he would affiliate with, and
became Republican because the
trust" side of the dollar came
up.
Every time we hear the White
City politicians boasting how
square they play the game" the
more we insist on cutting the
cards.
The Grangers are watching
with great interest the Taft-Ham-
mond.Aldrich burlesque process
sion of Garry out the Roosevelt
policies on a stretcher. "
By the passing Of President
Taft's Canadian tariff bill the
Grangers and farmers, as usual,
were handed a lemon. And
to hear the trust owned" news
papers and their politicians that
made it possible, claim and try
to prove that it is great victory
| for the farmers in general, makes
us think that they still have us
in the buying gold brick class. "
Is it a victory over the high
cost of living? No. Even the
president has not had the gall to
hold that out to the American
people. His newspaper allies,
who will, according to their own
statements, save several million
dollars year if they get free
print paper, have tried, by mis-
representation of facts to con-
vey the impression to the read
ing public that this "bunco" ar
rangement will reduce the cost
of their food stuff. But not one
spokesman, either in the trust
owned administration or in the
! ill-advised congress, has ventured
to suggest that its passage would
do away with the spectre of high
Iprlces.
| Is it a victory over the out
RACES of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
| law? No, indeed. Not a single
blasted one Of them is touched.
The wool trust, with its infamous
lSchedule X, the sugar trust, with
Its dishonest Dutch standard, q"
| the cotton trust, the rubber trust
lgo down the list of these gi-
gantic monopolies that fatten
lupon the ultimate consumer and
Granger through their high tariff
|graft, and we find them undis-
Iturbed by this Canadian pact.
! Is it victory over the trust
control of prices? Certainly not.
| There is not even pretense that
| the Canadian agreement will ac-
complish what the Sherman Anti
trust law, even without the rule
of reason, "has failed to do. The
| lumber trust will continue to fix
the prices that we must pay for
| the lumber that goes in our farms
land homes. The beef trust will
keep right on charging its own
price for the meat that we must
eat. The rubber, woolen and
COTTON trusts will dictate. as
usual, the price we must pay for
the clothes we wear. The mil
lers, even with the Canadian
wheat supply open to them, will
determine what we must pay for
a sack of flower. The steel trust
will fix the price of the iron and
machinery that we must buy.
No industrial combina ton, unless
perhaps it be the paper-maker's
trust, will find its control over
prices disturbed. This tariff leg
Iislation of the presidents was
not intended to loosen the hold
of the trusts upon the Changers
and farmers pocketbooks.
1t is a victory for big industrial
and transportation interests, and
| it is a double cross for the
Grangers and farmers.

Committee Questions Late Secretary
 Hays Authority.


 Washington. Oct 31.-The connection ot former Secretary of State John W. Poster and the late E. H.

Ward killed in the Chinese rebellion of 1882. was tue subject of an inquiry started to- cay by the house sub committee on state department expenditures.
 Alr- Poster who acted as attorney for the Ward heirs and with Robert Lansing secured half of the sum IS at torneys fees, testified that John Hay, secretary Of state, had expressly ap- proved a change in the protocol of Nov . 1901. under which China ha q guaranteed an indemnity fund to va rious nations whose subjects were in jCred in the boxer rebellion.
 This change in the protocol. said MT. Poster. gave Secretary Hay su- thority to pay the Ward claim aI- though Ir originated nearly forty years before the boxer rebellion. He admit ted that as attorney for Mrs. G. M.
