He was always ready to donate his

A. better Pullman, as well as a

which he was constantly striving and
he took Inactive and prominent part
in the long fight which resulted in

During the twenty years of his work
on the Herald he devoted hundreds
of pages to giving publicity to the
advantages of Pullman and the sur
rounding country, and hundreds of
columns to advocating policies which

A Frank Letter.

Following is the copy of letter
sent by j. NJ, Reid to President Taft:
Pullman, Wash, April 10, 1911.
President w. H. Taft, White House,
Washington, d. C.
My Dear Mr.. Taft.
| desire to express to you my poll
teal views in regard to the Canadian
reciprocity, and l believe are the
views of SO per cent of the grain
growers of the United States and es-
pecially of the Pacific coast states.
We have upheld protective tariff
policy for the last sixty years for
the purpose of building up a com
plete nation, with manufacturing in
dustries as well as farming, expect
ing thereby to build up a home mar
ket for our farm products.
| believe that no class of citizens
| cauld have been more loyal than the
farmers have been to the government
and the manufacturing industries.
We started in at Maine and have
landed at the Pacific coast selling the
fertility of the soil, without receiving
| sufficient remuneration to fertilize
our wasted homes, abandoned the
worn farms and moved westward
| trying to compete with the cheapest
labor on earth (Which we are still
doing with our products) and buying
! in the dearest market, hoping against
hope TO at some time come into our
own.
Under such conditions it takes no
great foresight to see why the rural
population is growing less, nor why
the farms were abandoned.
We believe in reciprocity, but we
believe that the manufacturers are
we'll able to stand some reciprocity,
as it is to widen their market and
not ours.
The Canadian farmer is buying his
commodities in a free trade market,
making his expenses about one-half
the amount of ours, and occupying
mp virgin soil, both of which give
IliT great advantage financially.
If this reciprocity is accepted, as
now outlined, | will venture to say
that few farmers will vote for any
one that upholds or votes for its pas
sage, but will vote and work for free
trade.
l have always been a republican,
and yet maintain that it was wise to
late manufacturing, but the day and
time of special privileges should end
