NO MORE GERMAN SALUTE.

increase in the shipments of cattle from Mexico to this country. And if the free trade policy of the democratic party should prevail and the duty on cattle be entirely removed the in- crease in importations will be enor nous.
 Mark Smith, the Arizons dean of democracy. says the. tariff on farm products has never benefited the farmer two cents worth. MT. Smith believes in absolute free trade in cat tie.
 Ashurst, the other candidate for the senate. is also a free trader.
 Carl Hayden announces that he stands with the democratic majority in the house of representatives. And the democratic majority is strictly a tariff -for-revenue- only majority-that is to say it is a free trade majority.
 Now. what will be the effect in Arizona should the duty on cattle be destroyed?
 Every steer shipped from Mexico and sold in Arizona means just one less steer for the ranges of this ter ritory And the importation of ten thousand head of cattle means a re- duction of ten thousand head from the number of cattle raised in Ari zona. And it means the loss of the price of those ten thousand head.
 It's an old maxim that we cant eat our cake and have it. We can't buy Mexican cattle and at the same time buy cattle raised in Arizona.
 Abraham Lincoln, whom the demo- cratic candidate for governor of Ari- zona modestly admits agrees with him on matters of government, said: "I know little about the tariff. l know little about specific duties and ad valorem duties. But l have sense enough to know that when we pro- duce an article at home and sell it in this country We have both the article and the money. But when We buy it abroad. We have the article but We don't have the money"
 So. when cattle are raised in Ari- zona and sold in Arizona, We have both the cattle and the money. But when they are raised in Mexico and sold here We have the cattle but our Mexican neighbors have the money.
 And that is the whole theory of the protection system. It is the theory to which Ralph Cameron, HOval Smith. and John s Williams are committed.

ANOTHER CRY FROM THE VINE.
 YARD.

Another minister's wife from the small country town has been heard from. A few weeks ago the Star printed a letter from the wife of a minister in western Kansas which told story of disappointment. dis Couragement and a situation bordering upon actual poverty in the minister's home
 "I used to think" wrote that dis heartened minister's wife. that the ministry was respectable. holy call ing. But we are nothing but genteel beggars."
 In the Star of this morning another wife of d minister in a small Kansas town somewhere writes of a condi- ton similar to that pictured by the letter of a few weeks ago. This time il is the wife of a Methodist preacher who has been assigned to q circuit" on d salary of $500 a year Eight months of the year are gone, but only one-third of the salary has been paid. This preachers wife and boy" she writes. are in need of overshoes for the winter. and there is not one dol lar in the preachers pocketbook."
 There was a time when the pioneer circuit rider seemed necessary in the evangelization of the frontier. But in that day he shared the common lot of the settlers to whom he preached. It is not probable that there is a com munity in Kansas now. however, that demands the endurance of such hard ships from the minister and his family in order to insure the means of grace" for the people. The existence of too many churches has brought about the same conditions for the circuit rider and the preachers in the out-o the-way places that the lack of church support produced in the pioneer days.
 Possibly the protests from the min isters' wives may bring about a realiz- ation on the part Of church leaders to the importance of correcting the con ditions. The community center move ment. for instance. which is designed to bring every interest in the rural community. religious, educational and social. into one convenient center. ought 10 interest tHe CHuiCI dS 'o us own oportunity to provide every rural neighborhood with one strong church to meet all the religious needs of that particular neighborhOod. It would re- move the competition that has become q burden to church members and to communities. and support the minister and his family in harmony with the dignity of his position.-kansas City Star.

In Germany it is etiquette for d gentleman meeting a lady of his acquaintance in the street to take off his hat to her before she bows. In Anglo Saxon countries the reverse is the practice. and an American wo- man would feel not a little aston ishment. as well doubtless as some amusement, if she were brought up against one of her male friends sa- luting her in the German fashion.

Free Trade in Cattle

In today's issue of The Republican there is a short story which was sent 10 this paper by the L.. $. Treasury Department. The story is apparently of small significance and will be passed over by many readers as worthy of little attention. Ii is mere ly to the effect that the customs re- ceipts for November for the Arizona district amounted to $47,0O0, and that this amount is greater by many thou sands of dollars than the amount col lected in the same district for any preceding November. It is added that almost all the duty was paid on cat tie shipped to this territory from Mexico.
 It is gratifying to know that the government got S47,0O0 in a single month from this customs district But it is worth while to ask just what is the significance of this large importa- ton of cattle. Also, it will interest a good many people-cattle growers and owners of ranches large and small to know whether there is a prospect of this already large importation be- ing materially increased.
 And the answer to this query is that it all depends. If the tariff on cattle remains about as it is now the remain about the same. If the tariff is reduced there will be a consequent

The Back Towns Problem

Editor Belknap of the Bellows Falls
Times has been giving some special
attention lately to remote sections
of his field, a practice which always
proves interesting and which could be
initiated with proftby other Vermont
editors. His observation, after one of
these trips, contains much Of vital in
terest to Vermonters. The introduc-
ton to the article was, as follows:
During the past week the editor
of the Times made visits to the towns
of Grafton, Windham. Andover and
Weston and studied at close range
some of the problems of the so-called
back towns. The word back is not
used in disparagement but simply to
indicate that the towns named are
away back from a railroad. Vermont
has many towns in this class and
among them are some of the best
towns of the state. From them
strong men have come who have done
valient service in solving the prob
lens that confront the commonwealth
These towns have problems of their
own which demand for their solution
courage and real craftsmanship.
Among the problems are the mainten-
ance of highways and schools in the
face of the steadily decreasing popu-
lation; the support OF churches and
libraries and making family and Soc
ial conditions attractive enough to
keep at home the few young people
who remain. A visit to some OF the
homes in these towns is truly pathetic
At many hearth sit the aged father
and mother watching the lengthening
shadows They know that the sum
mons to the Great Beyond is near at
hand, yet the children who have left
their homes to seek their fortunes I'M
der other skies are always in their
thoughts and conversation. They talk
OF the good old times of 40 or so
years ago when their town was much
more of town than IL is now Each
of the four towns named above used
to have more than twice the popula-
ton it now has. Each Of these towns
could easily support three times the
present population, and the question
Is, will the tide set back again tow
ard this country. There are indica.
lions that 1t will. The telephone, rur-
al delivery OF mails, the movement
for better roads and schools have
made life on the farm much more at
tractive than II used 10 be. Already
the consumption of farm products is
too close on the heels of production
and the ever increasing cost of living
is bound to drive some of the urban
population into the country and have
tendency to discourage those in the
country from flocking to the cities. II
is quite probable that the back towns
In Vermont will again come into theil
own, but II will be slow and at times
discouraging process"

CALLS ON PRESIDENT NICHOLS
Request for Report on Changing
Name Of North Hartland, VI.

Request for Report on Changing
Name Of North Hartland, VI.
White River Junction, Nov. 6.-Ro-
land L. Stevens, attorney for the SO
ciety to retain the name of North
Hartland for that village, has address
ed an open letter TO President Mic
hols of Dartmouth college and Prof
T. w. ID. Worthen, in part as follows:
More than a year and half ago
at President Taft's request you ac-
cepted the duty of hearing and deter
mining the controversy at North
Hartland, VT, over the change of
name of the postoiilce of that village
to Evarts. A few weeks after your
appointment you held public hear
ing In the village OF North Hartland
Each side was represented by coun-
sci. At the adjournment OF this
hearing you decided that you did not
care to hold another, but that coun-
sci might submit briefs together
with list of the patrons of the office
and list of the taxpayers and vot.
ers of the village.
These lists and the briefs have
been in your hands for many months.
Urged by my clients have from
time to time made requests, both in
person and by letter that you render
a decision of some kind SO far as
! know none has been rendered. The
society alleges, and stands ready to
prove once more II necessary, that
the idea OF changing the name OF
their village originated with certain
stockholders of local corporation,
most of whom were non.residents, in
the hope that NJ Evarts would in
some way stimulate their industry
in return for the honor conferred and
that the methods employed to brlnl
about the change were dishonorable
and coercive. and that the reasons
finally given for the change were
fictitious and unfounded.
MY clients feel that since the
MANTLE OF politics has been thrown
over this case It's merits have beer
lost sight of entirely. They protes
that the department deliberately pu
them at IA disadvantage by declininl
to suspend the order to change tn,
name to Evarts pending final in
vestigation. and that II has tried I,
block them at every turn.
I'm view Of the fact that this cas-
has now become identified to cei
tain extent with Dartmouth colleg
and that am Dartmouth man. the
do not seem to regard my advice 1
exercise moderation and patience a
entirely disinterested am Their,
fore appealing to you as Dartmouth
, men holding officers OF great trus
and influence, In the name of IN
Dartmouth spirit, either to render
decision before long II the claims o
your time are not too great. or I
resign the task II you find YOU cannc
give the needed time"

BENNINGTON. VT, NNov. 7, lsl
Eor lieutenant. governor in 1s12.

AS running mate for Allen M.
Fletcher on the next Republican
state ticket we do not remember to
have seen mentioned Charles w.
Gates. Assuming that Mr.. Gates does
not desire the nomination for Lieut.
enant-Governor and that we may
therefore take this opportunity to
suggest the pleasant thought OF the
office seeking the man, we place the
gentleman in nomination.
OF Mr. Gates we may remark that
as State Commissioner of Highways
he is doing well the work which has
been confided to him. Moreover he
is doing, as Mr.. Kipling would say
work that counts. If record OF
work well done in an official posi-
ton is one recommendation, Mr.
Gates has another in the fact that he
does not advertise. We should be
sorry to have him give up his pres
ent public duties, which are second
to none in their Importance to the
welfare of Vermont, for those OF
Lieutenant-Gove but we think
him able to hold down both jobs al
the same time.
Perhaps we are rather old-fashion
ed in clinglng to the idea that for
Governor and LieutenantGovernor
the parties should preferably nom
mate not only men of business abil
ity and demonstrated efficiency, but
men who are known throughout the
state. We would be ready to vote
for Fletcher and Gates.-Windsoi
