Trust Legislation.

President Taft has already made it
plain that he will renew his recon-
mendations for federal incorporation
act. This is one of the list of policies
he placed before the previous congress,
but did not press. concentrating his
forces on the railroad bill, postal saw
ings banks and other measures that he
deemed of more immediate Importance.
Now he is ready to renew his advocacy
of federal incorporation and to fight
for it as one of his chief policies. The
objection urged by the Democrats to
this measure is that if enacted it would

How the Fight Will Start.

The tariff board is not the only body
that has been investigating the wool.
cotton and other schedules. The ways
and means committee CT the house has
also been busy. The actual course of
procedure will be that the report of
the tariff board on the wool schedule
and the presidents recommendations
relating thereto will be referred to the
ways and means committee, which
will use this material and that which
it has already gathered to frame bill
revising this particular schedule. The
house may be expected to pass this
measure substantially in the form re-
ported by the ways and means COM
mittee. In the senate the insurgents.
under the lead of Senator La Toilette.
still have the balance of power and
may be expected to amend the bill in
much the same way that they did dur
ing the extra session. The measure,
with the a'nendments, will then go to
conference, where an agreement be-
II cen the two houses may be reached.
Hen the bill will go to the president.
and he will sign it if
That is the big 'if" on which hangs
the fate Of tariff revision in this cen-
gress. The president will sign the
measure If it is in substantial agree
ment with the findings of the tariff
board Can the Democrats and pro-
gressives agree on bill answering

ference of production cost at home and
abroad and provide an additional mar
gin of profit for the American pro-
ducer. The progressive Republicans
will support the presidents theory, but
as a matter OF fact will favor more
radical reductions than those he rec
ommends. The Democrats. who have
the actual framing of the tariff bills,
will act on the theory of revenue
tariff, but will seek some basis of COM
promise whereby working agreement
may be reached between themselves
and the Republican revisionists.

these requirements? Can they agree
on bill substantially different from
that vetoed by the president during
the extra session? This Is the big
question. in American politics. On its
answer may hang the fate of the next
presidential election.
The course of procedure followed on
the wool schedule will also be that on
cotton and on any other schedules re-
ported by the tariff board. 1t is also
possible that the Democrats OF the
house may frame general tariff re-
vision bill merely as matter of rec
ord. This would hardly get past the
senate and even if it did would be We
toed by the president.

BACK OF IT AlL---1HE PIONEER.

Mr. c. E Wilson's description Of the
new and modern houses and barns that
have been and are being erected In
Franklin and adjoining counties is a
picture of prosperity. The new homes
have every convenience. They cost
small fortunes. They are built on
farms which would be cheap at 500
to $3.50 an acre today and which the
next generation will transfer at $3.50 to
$500 per acre
on $3.50 an acre farms. the next gen.
Grafton will be richer and more COM
fortable-but the past and passing
generation broke the sod OF all these
magnificent farms and laid the founda-
ton of all the handsome houses in the
sweat of hardship and OF self denial.
Men are not old who passed these
farms by contemptuously at S. an acre.
Middle. aged men bought them at $50
and s25. 1t was all they were worth
then. 1t is not long since the long
StlttCH DelHeeH 1lOIS 1IONc t1uo
Hampton was practically unoccupied
and untitled. 1t has not been many
years as the years go since the roads
wound thru interminable grassy prai-
res, twisting here and there over the
fenceless expanse to avoid bottomless
sloughs. II is a garden now. 1t is
ct ha la
hauled it's freight to Webster City, the
nearest railroad, or to the same rail-
road at Alden: when the country west
toward "Brasfeld," later Goldfeld, was
bottomless morass and IS an acre top
price. There are fine houses and
spreading corn fields along the way
nowadays. flowing wells, umbrdogeous
trees, big red barns. The scattered
patches of wheat and flax have made
way for we'll kept and productive
farms. The howell and the straw stable
home and the roomy stables are better
built than the settlers earlier homes
Over all north central Iowa it is the
same. In the span Of thirty years a
wilderness has become an umpire.
But II it is an empire it is an en-
pire by conquest. Every farm was
won in battle. None of the younger
generation will ever realize how their
elders faced cold and poverty and even
starvation, smilingly and bravely, con-
tentit wi little and cauty wi mair.
But every furrow in the fields, every
rock in the foundations Of the new
homes, every tall tree on the grassy
lawns is a monument to the pioneer,
the man with the oxen and the break
| ing ploy, full Of hope, days work and
sand.
There were giants tn those days. It
is good to know that few Of them
still remain on the hithee side to mark
the results Of their labors. to rest in
more or less discomfort in the splendid
new houses and inveigh mildly against
Tn. modern extravagance and weak
ness which Graves hot air furnaces and
sleeps late o. mornings, to watch the
automobiles plunging along the road
where four horses were once needed
