RECIPROCITY AND THE FARMERS

Addressing the Pittsburg chamber of
last Saturday night, Secre-
tary Knox made one of the best argu-
ments for the pending reciprocity agree
ment that has yet been uttered, With
out going much into detail and leaving
statistics to others, he epltomized the
peoples case with telling effect.
"Much has been said to the effect that
the agricultural interests of the United
States will suffer if the Canadian pact
is ratified. But who is advancing
this hostile argument-the farmers
themselves or the interests which have
for SO many years made the farmers
their catspaw? The device is almost as
old as tariff legislation itself, it ought to
be familiar by now"
In order to learn whether it was the
farmer. or the farmers pretended
friends, who we're objecting to Their re-
ciprocity program, Mr.. Knox had a
careful investigation made of the rural
press in twelve states of the north
Mississippi valley. City papers and east
ern papers were ignored. The inquiry
concerned itself merely with those publ
cations which might be presumed to
interpret the sentiments of the farm
ers. Let the result of the investigation
be toldi in the secretary's own words:
''Ninety-eight per cent of them (the
newspapers examined) were heartily in
favor OF a generous reciprocity agree
ment with Canada. Some OF these
newspapers had gone to the trouble, SO
their editor stated, Of sending represen.
tatiyes out among farmers themselves to

THE UNITED STATES SENATE.

The United States senators do not
purpose to be elected by the people-if
they can help it. The resolution to that
effect vas defeated IN the senate last
week by four votes In order to secure
those four votes Senator Root had
an amendment tackled onto the resolu-
ton which was highly offensive to
southerners and a number of democrats
from that section voted against it.
They were in great company. There was
Lorimer the discredited, Burrows, de-
feated for reelection, Depew. ditto,
Dick-Boss Cox's man, Smoot suspected
of polygamy. 1t is a great crowd and
our touchy southern friends would have
done we'll to keep out of it. The Suther-
land amendment was a political trick
and served no good nor useful
That some of those who voted for the
bill stood by that amendment is simply
a proof of bad faith on their part. An
other congress will soon be called in
extra session and to it we must look for
the re%ctitication of the many political
blunders of the Sixty-First. If the
United States senators of this coming
congress shall pass the simple resolution
which has been endorsed by the states,
it will put itself a step nearer The people
who are the ultimate source of their
power. If they in any way fail to do so,
they will merely delay, not defeat a re.
form which is bound to come. "No
question is ever settled until it is
settled right

There is no doubt about North Dakota
having had real winter weather since
the first of the year. 1t has not been
abnormally cold but cold enough SO
there Is no doubt about it being winter.
The fall of snow has been larger than
for any year since the winter of 19O6.O7,
which was one of the record years. The
snow is deeper in the northeastern part
of the state but there is a deep white
mantle covering every part of it. The
past season was dry and the ground
lacked moisture when it froze in early
winter. 1t is hoped and expected that
the moisture from the melting snow will
be material in relieving the condition of
drouth. Our farms are in first class
condition for raising a crop during the
coming crop season, owing to the fact
that SO much summerfollowing was done
and so large an amount of new sod was
turned over last year. The only ques-
ton seems to be that of obtaining sufi-

Many friends of Senator McCumbe

Many friends of Senator McCumber
are greatly disappointed over his vote
in favor of Senator Lorimer retaining his
seat, while others who have watched
the senator's course for some years are
not in the least surprised that he was
found in the line with the interests be-
hind Lorimer. He has already travelled
In the crowd and it was asking too much
to expect him to desert the bunch in
their hour of great need. However. for
the sake of the good name of the state
it is a shameful thing that the senator
could not see his way to stand for clean
or conditions in the body of which he is
a member.
