Schroeder. manager Of the Yakima
Hostel. who has given the subject
considerable thought.
EVERY business man I'm the city
and every hotel man. and practically
every person here felt it when the
Union Gap was closed because OF
railroad construction, The stoppage
of traffic there cut oft very large

dependent We are upon the farm

is going to be a very serious matter
to get them back here And we
might as Well realize that Wapato,

spring into existence.

We're 40 and so years ago. On that I
do not care to speak at length, but the
: attitude of some of u big men to-

canism suggests a story. Many years
ago. before the great division occurred
between the northern and southern
MethOdists, there was a we'll known
preacher in the southwest named Peter
Cartwright. Peter did not put on any

people turned out to hear him. because
they felt thai they would get the Cos
pei message from n whose simple,
forcible words they could readily grasp.
The time came for a conference at
Nashville. and Peter Cartwright, with
his hunting shirt, was among the at
tendant preachers. Henry P. Bascom.
afterwards bishop, presided, and was in
personal appearance at least quite a
contrast to Peter. Brother Bascom
wore a white shirt. and was gotten up
generally in the style of a clergyman
accustomed to the environment of a
growing community. already at that
time the civic center OF Tennessee.
Dascom did not approve the get-up of
Brother Peter. and showed his disap-

liver an address in the church, as was
customary in rotation during the con-
ference.
"while Peter was not a favorite with
Bascom, he was liked by nearly every
body else, and the fame of his rude,
effective eloquence had got abroad
among Methodist generally, and they
wanted to hear him.. The pressure on
Bascom was so great that he was un-

gradually supplants the American

1T is claimed, in support of the pro-
posed agreement, that the price of
wheat for the American farmer Is con-

day that this argument received wide
and authoritative publicity, h follow
ing appeared in the market report of a
leading New York newspaper which
favors the pseudo-reciprocity plan:
Sentiment was bearish in the wheat
market, owing to the continued absence
Of both cash and export demand, the
foreign situation. and the probability
that the reciprocity treaty will be
passed. Evidently the hard-headed
dealers in wheat believe that free wheat
from Canada means a lower price for
American wheat"
Would not that mean cheaper bread.
Mr.. Cannon, and lower cost Of living
for the masses"
The ex-speaker smiled grimly. Ibid
you read what Senator McCumber. of
North Dakota, had to say on that
point?' he replied. II think he figured
out that the average loaf of bread cost
about 40 times to the what
the farmer had received for the wheat
going into the bread. Everybody knows
that the farmers price has a very re-

to the price you DAY your baker"
