PARFNTS WORRIED
over H.E. MARTIN
SEND TOUCHING LETTER TO
CHIEF OF POLICE OF MENoM-
INEE RELATIVE TO HIS
WHEREABOUTS

Friends of III. T.. Martin, formerly Of
this city, who tried to hang himself
in one of the Menominee parks las:
summer, shortly after he left this city
and who disappeared soon afterward,
are still trying to locate him. Mr. Mar
tin was a carpenter by trade and work.
ed i'm this city for some months, finally
leaving Calumet. Soon after, he was
prevented from taking his own fife, by
Chief English of the Menominee police
who later secured a promise from him
that he would endeavor to secure work
and make an honest living. Later
letter was sent to the young mans
parents, telling them of the circum-
stance and of the promise made. That
he has failed to write TO his parents
and is still a source OF much worry to
them, is shown by the following letter
that has just been received by the
Menominee Chief of Police.
The letter is from the boys faith
er, Edward Martin and bears the fol-
lowing dateline. 1.-The Gardens, Cor
SOi lNailf ihhhs
I'VE thank you very much for the
letter you so kindly sent us about our
son, II. Il. Martin. 1t has been a kind
of comfort to us TO know what he
promised you. We know so little
about American ways and means we
scarcely know what further steps to
take in the matter. A few months
since l came across / met an American
,artist on our coast and he told me
there had been an exhaustive census
taken in America during the last sum-
mer and he thought we might be able
TO get some information from that
source provided he had not altered his
name. The foreign office suggested
that we might employ Pinkerton's
agent at a cost quite beyond our
had put the matter in the hands of the
Salvation Army without result They
were looking for him in Chicago.
1T was extremely kind of you to an
swer our letter yourself. We thought
perhaps you might have a child of
your own and we enclose an order for
3 shillngs which would buy little
Christmas present for it. We also
thank you for promising to do any
thing in your power to help us find
him. We would like to know to whom
we should apply to get Information
about the census. If you think it is
any use to do that. we should like to
know how to proceed to find If he is
i'm Wisconsin or Michigan.
Hoping you will forgive our many
inquiries in what is a great trouble to
us, We remain, etc. etc"

How They Love the Farmer.

Representative Moss of Indiana,
the only member of Congress who &C
tually follows pillow when not legisla-
ting, told the House of Representa-
tives that, in his Judgment, the Can
adian reciprocity would eventually
open markets worth s1O0,000000 annu-
ally to the farmers of the United
States. "-Washington Dispatch.
Most Of the farmers in Congress
who oppose Canadian reciprocity are
lawyers, although they may have been
born on a farm and their earliest recol
lections are of doing the chores. Hon.
Ralph w. Moss of Clay county, still
follows the pillow and rides the moving
machine and milks the COWS when he
is home at Center Point. His advoca-
cy of reciprocity means something
He stands with Tama Jim Wilson and
knows what is good for the farmer. -

tears to the eyes of their constituents
on the soil The affection OF the aver
age congressman for the poor oppress-
ed farmer is something remarkable,
especially about the time he is be-
ginning to think he shall need his
vote for reelection before long.
However, coming down from con-
gressional hot air" to brass tacks,
The Messenger would like to have any
of those Republican congressman that
voted against the adoption of the re-
ciprocity agreement With Canada on
the ground that they were protecting
the farmer, explain away Congress-
man Kitchin's point that their own
Republican Senate investigating com
mittee only a little while ago unani-
reported that the tariff did not
affect the price of agricultural pro-
ducts because the price was fixed in
the worlds markets.

accept as good Republican doctrine,

to protect them from Canadian compe-
tition or the report of the Republican

Fer and Against Fletcher.

There are already indications that
Hon. Allen NJ Fletcher of Cavendish
may be a candidate for governor in
1912. That he can have the support
OF many strong and influential men;
that he is in every way worthy and
well qualified for the position; that
he has been found in several legisla-
tive sessions on the side of the peo-
pie on most questions and that he
would prove popular candidate there
is no question. He will not be
candidate, however If there is not
a real call for his candidacy from the
people. He will run no money cam
paign and no barrel will be opened
in his behalf. He is not that kind of
a man.-Morrisville Messenger.
There will be no loud ana insistant
call for him as a candidate unless con-
ditions change very much in the next
six months. The Messenger has al
lowed its preference to get away with
its judgment in this matter 1t will
be interesting to note what paper will
second the motion of the Morrisville
sheet,-Montpelier Argus.

Extra sessIon-lf Necessary

Judging from the stand some pa
pers in the state take, it would seem
as if Brattleboro was not part of
the state of Vermont. A very impor-
tant matter is now up before that
place in the location of a strip Of rail-
road there Whether it shall be built
in Vermont or across the river in
New Hampshire is of such Importance
that if it cannot be brought about in
any other way the aid of the state
should be invoked. 1t is suggested
that the Public Service Commission
can settle the difficulty But it is Just
possible that whether the railroads
shall build in Vermont or New Hamp.
shire, may not be under the jurisdic-
ton of the Public Service commission.
If it is necessary to call the legisla-
ture together to do so, let it be call
ed. There is more at stake than the
cost of an extra session. We believe
the matter should be settled other
wise, If possible but If not, then let
the legislature act-Morrisville News
and Citizen.

Artful DODGERS

The various dodgers to which some
eminent statesmen, or their apologists
resort to excuse themselves in fight
ing against the peoples interests. are
on the verge of the ridiculous. Sena-
tor Page OF Vermont for example. at
tempts to excuse his hostility 10 the
Canadian agreement for reciprocity,
on the ground that he is acting in
the interests of his constituents He
says:
! have been in doubt about Canad.
ian reciprocity and have taken pleb-
iscite OF the people of Vermont and
| find that at least so per cent and
indeed | might say 80 per cent Of
the farmers are opposed to the reci-
procity bill. And the farmers know
what they are talking about. The ex-
tensiye correspondence shows re-
markable range of information and
deep study and considerable indepen-
dent thinking. The unanimity of
their conclusions is impressive | am
indeed quite impressed and | shall
probably vote against the reciprocity
bill.
If Senator Page believes that 90 per
cent of the farmers of Vermont want
the bill defeated, he is probably the
only man in Vermont who honestly
holds to that opinion. But even If
that were true, what sort of a repres.
entative of public opinion in his state
does he consider himself? The
Springfield Republican very aptly and
pertinently shows the weakness of
Mr., Pages excuse by submitting the
figures of population for his state:-
Total population 10 years old
and over 27S,943
All gainful occupations 1898
OF which engaged in agriculture 49,S2O
Engaged in professional service 7,O16
Domestic and personal service 23,O2S
Trade and transportation 1889
Manufacturing and mechanical
pursuits 36,1S0
In other words the senator votes
against the interests of $4,000 of the
people TO oblige a majority of the
less than $4,000
That is bad and weak enough but

gents of the Mississippi valley and
AHb htNAtln HtdNtS 10 EVEN MtdhtI.
They are now trying to kill the reci-
procity bill by a devious method. Both
President Taft and Premier Laurier
have made it plain that if the recipro-
city agreement should be in any way
it would thereby be destroy
ed But the insurgents unwilling TO
admit frankly their determination TO
kill the bill seek the same end by try.
ing TO amend it, knowing that to
change it will be to destroy it, abso-
lutely. Yet here is the defense of
Senator Cummins, published in a jour
nal which makes strident pretensions
to devotion TO the public interests.
We quote from Golfers; -
The time, and the only time, to
judge the insurgents on reciprocity Is
on the final vote, when it has been
amended in both houses and after it
has come out of the conference. If
in that shape the treaty makes any
substantial reduction in the tariff
burdens of this country, the insur-
gents should vote for it. They can
hardly oppose reciprocity without
putting themselves in the position
which they have so often condemned,
the attitude of favoring a special in
terest. But merely amending is not
