TRY IT NOW

Farmers, the best cultivator you
can use in a dry time is an old
mower-wheel. Tye wire or piece
of chain to the rim and hitch a horse
to it and drag it between the corn
rows. puIverizes the clods, levels
the ground and creates dirt mulch
that causes the moisture to rise
from below. We know this to be a
good thing in dry time for we have
seen it used and lately we notice ii
is being mentioned in the agrlcu :
tural papers. The mower wheel
leaves the ground like it had been
rolled.
Why not try it. If this dry spell
continues much longer the corn crop
will be seriously hurt and we know
this plan is great help in dry
time.

AN ENDLESS CHAIN OF FREE-TRADE

The gentlemen in Congress who
delight to tinker with the Tariff are
now devoting their attention to what
they are pleased to call "Farmers
Free List" Having advocated Can
adian reciprocity to bring down the
price of living by subjecling the
farmer of the United States to free
competition with the products of
Canada, thereby injuring the farm
er's occupation, the farmer having a
vote which amounts to something
in the election of Congressman,
something therefore must be done
to pacify the farmer vote, hence
more Tauff tinkering to get up a
free list that will appeal directly to
the heart of the farmer and cause
aim to sustain the reciprocity freak.
1t would appear that Congress is
now in the specially of class legs-
lation. First, it is proposed to take
The duty off importations of farm
products, SO chat farm products can
De bought cheaper; than to take the
duty eff other than farmers pro-
lucts, So that the farmer may buy
cheaper. In a nutshell this shows
now rapidly the Tariff tlnkers are
trying to carry US all to Free-Trade.
Here is the recipe: Take each
occupation in turn, subject to free
competition with foreign articles,
and as fast as one class is hurt there
by make peace with it Gf possible)
by giving it balm at the expense
of some other occupation. Ulti-
mate Free-Trade will ensue, indus
tries of the United States be de-
moralized or ruined, the national
treasury will be empty, and then We
can have direct taxation for the
expenses OF running the government,
and a fac time tryIrg to get money
enough to live on, let alone the
matter Of aging taxes 10 Uncle

M. X. G T. to Build

The contract for the construction OF
a new station here has been let by the
Missouri. Kansas & Texas railroad.
News to this effect has been received
by B. d Bownell, the local agent. 1t
came in an official letter from head
quarters.
The building is TO be I27 feet 6
inches long. 1t will be on the north
side of Main street, ACROSS from the
present structure, which the SVstem m
has been using here from the time it,
started running trains into this city
Exactly how soon work will begiu
is not known. 1t is presumed, how
ever, that it will not be long, and that
in short time gang Of civil en-
gineers will come here from the Par
sons Offices to make surveys.
July is the beginning of the fiscal
year with railroad systems. The
appropriation for the building will
probably become available then, and
that is not long to wait.
The company will spend several
thousand dollars here rearranging its
yards. The "house" track, which runs
west of the present station, will have
to be moved north of Main street To
make room for the new building.

A WELL-TIMED APOLOGY

"To be sure" says the Republic,
"wool was free in the Wilson bill,
but the Wilson bill had a lot
of things that WON'T be fodnd IN
the Democratic tariff legislation of
the future" But an acknowledge
ment of past failure is no assurance
that the Democratic party is better
qualified than in 1894 to make a
tariff. 1t had at that time control
of all branches of the government.
For the only time in the last fifty
years the people had given the party
full power to act. 1t proceeded to
pass the Wilson tariff law, which
became identified with long period
of business calamity. The people,
alarmed as well as disgusted, elected
a Republican House in 1894. and
continued to do it until 1910. when
through a Republican failure to
vote, a Democratic House came in
Though the other branches are no.
Democratic the new House is en-
gagged in tariff ripping, in order as II
imagnes, to make party capital foi
1912. 1t denounces protection and
yet it is pusillanimous in what it Is
doing for free trade.
The promise that the next Demo
cratic tariff, if the party gets
chance to make one, will be different
from the Wilson law, is simply a
promise intended to offset notorious
fizzle In legislation. Promises from
such a source are cheap. New
enterprises in the United States are
halted because the country fears
another period of incompetency,
dull times lack of employment and
general suspension of confidence.
A Democratic organ that, in refer
ring to the future, begins with the
statement that the Wilson law will
not be repeated, admits much more
than it intended. The Dlmocratic
era of the Wilson law was catastro
phe. But it also stands as the lat
est sample of what happens when the
Democratic party gets national con
troll. No beggar on horseback ever
rode to his destination more surely
and promptly.-GIobe Democrat.

FIRE IN FREDONIA

Early Tuesday morning fire
broke out in Fredonia that des =
troyed the new Christian church, a
blacksmith shop and a business
house.
The origin of the fire is not posi-
lively known but it is supposed to
have started from the blacksmith
shop. The church damage to the
amount of about SO, 900, covered by
insurance. the furniture was de-
.royed. 1t was insured for about
nalf Its value. The other buildings
were uninsured.

PURSUIT OF THE UAATTAIAABLE

After consulting with each Other
at summer gathering the Demo
cratic editors of Missouri have con
cluded that the great need of the
party in the state is harmony, and
they propose to hold a meeting
early iu the fall to promote this OBJ
ject especially it was urged that
the party managers shou d concen-
trate on a candidate for Governor
and avoid the friction of a general
contest for the nomination. Dem
ocrAtic politicians in Missouri are
fond OF harmony, provided the par
ticular faction in which they are
concerned bosses the job. The ed
itors at the conference insisted that
the party prospects are sure
thing, and yet discussed plans to
''redeem the state" phrase the
Democrats of Missouri considered
humorous until the Republican ma
lority in the state in 1908 and 1910
followed the phenomenon Of 1904.
Twice in succession the electoral
vote of Missouri has figured on the
Republican side. Last year was
not a good one for the Republican
party in general, but Missouri was
the conspicuous exception.
1t may be CRUEL to remind the
Democratic editors of Missouri that
the candidate for Governor will be
named at the state primary to be
held next August, and that it may
not be easy to forestall the judg-
ment of individual members of the
party. Numerous Democrats as
pire to be governor. Two are men
toned for president. The only
practical way to arrive at what is
called harmony is to eliminate the
rivalry, giving those who withdraw
from the race something equally
as good" Several Of the candi-
dates may possibly be tolled off
with Chautauqua enPag ements.
For the most part the Inducements
offered will have to be some other
Office. After all this preliminary
fue management the privates i'll
the rear rank may do as they
please. The problem the Demo
cratic editors have tackled is this;

in advance of the state primary

A STEP BACKWARD

Those who give intelligent thought
to the relations, present and p o.
pective, between Cuba and the Uni'
ed States will certainly deplore the
action of the Cuban house in putting
an end to the teaching of English in
tae Cuban schools. From whatever
standpoint this action was taken, ii
was more tnan unwise, SO far as II
concerns the future prosperity OF
the island. If political animoslty
dictated it, the case is one of Cuba
cutting eff her nose to spite her face,
for the results cannot be detrimental
to the interests of this country save
as those interests are adversely af
fected by step that works injury
to the prosperity of Cuba.
This country is enlargins every
year the opportunities of American
students for the study of the Span
ish language realizing the increasing
intimacy, commercial and otherwise
between the United States and the
other countries of the Western hemi
sphere. 1t is short sighted at least
for a Spanish-speaking country to
refuse to meet this policy half way
by supplemeting the instruction OF
American students in Spanish witt
the instruction of Spanish in English
Cuba needs to take forward and MOI
backward steps. Possibly the i'll
advised measure will not become
law. Far-seeing Cubans would b.
advancing their country's best in
terests by preventing this hnal step.

SPANISH WAR VETRANS

In point of years the soldiers of
the Spanish war, who met in the
state encampment at St. Louis, last
Monday, are not vetrans, but they
are entitled to the honored name IN
many other respects. They repre-
sent the volunteer spirit that has
carried every war of the United
States to a successful issue, and II
| strate the best characteristics Of
the citiz n soldiery that Is now, es
always, the main military reliance
of this country when involved in
war. The soldiers of 1898 are for
the most part in the early prime of
life, and form an important reserve
though distributed throughout the
states in peaceful vocations. as they
were before the clash of arms with
Spain. Many of the American
troops raised at that time saw little
of active service, but a faithful
soldier cannot be estimated by such
test. He yields obedience to
orders whatever the circumstances
may be, and offers his life accord
ing TO the judgment of those in
command. He must meet any form
of emergency that may arise. The
moment volunteer takes the oath
of enlistment he has offered the su-
preme sacrifice.
One phase of the war with Spain,
that connected with the Philippines,
was more difficult and trying than
the country has yet appreciated.
The climate was peculiarly trying
and many of the marches exhaust
ing. There was savage treachery
to guard against and the surround
ings generally were depressingly un.
American. What the soldiers
thought of the Philippines is shown
by the extent to which they have
kept away from them since the
musters out. There are opportun.
tiles in the archipelago, but not tc
the liking of the volunteers who per.
formed their full duty there with a
sense that patient fortitude was one
of the main requirments. The wal
was begun with scarcely any know
ledge that the Philippines existed.
They took the form of an unwel-
come necessity, but the American
soldier faced the responsibility with
his usual indomitable grit. Let no
one speak lightly of the services OF
the veterans of the Spanish war
They are up to the best standard in
every essential point.-Globe Dem
ocrat.

THE AMERICAN CORONATION"

The American people had little
coronation" of their own last Mon
day when they united in enthusiastic
feliciation of President and Mrs.
Taft on the occasion of their silver
wedding anniversary. While the
fficial celebration was, of course,
merely private social function,
notwithstanding the lapge number
of invitations issued, nevertheless
the good people of the entire
country join in extending their
heartiest congratulations and from
every state in the Union have come,
not only costly gifts from lndiyld-
uals and organizations of all sorts
and conditions, but thousands of
private letters and kilograms, all
expressing the most cordial good
will.
The celebration at the White
House was on scale of unprecedent
elaborateness, but, as President
Taft Is quoted as remarking, he will
observe but one silver wedding
anniversary during his whole life
and it behooves him to make the
occasion notable. Incidentally, or
coincidentally, not the least inter-
esting and American fact connected
with the affair is that it falls on the
anniversary of the battle of Bun( er
Hill, that auspicious and patriotic
date having been chosen for the
union OF the young lawyer and his
longtime sweetheart. The young
lawyer undoubtedly never dreamed
thar he would be president of the
United States twenty five years
after he became a benedict, and it
is al least possible that he would not
! have attained that great office but
for the encouragement aud assist
ance contributed by the faithful
companion of his LIES purney. 1t
is well known that the Presidents
tastes have not been for the hurly-
burly of official life in its more
strenuous aspects and it is doubtful
If he ever looked higher than the
seat Oh the supreme bench which
was his for the accepting. A lauu
able ambition, however, is generally
credited with having induced Judge
Tart 10 Law aside the dream OF the
judicial peace for the forum and
arena of national politics through
which he passed to the presidency.
AT any rate, speculations aside,
the coronation" of the first citizen
of the republic with the "slver
crown" of twenty five years of happy
welded life takes precedence In the
regard of the American people over
all the glamor of the crowning of
any other ruler, prince or potentate
of the earth. William Howard Taft
"rules" because the people called
him from private life to WELD the
supreme executive power, and he
has amply indicated the wisdom of
the call.-Kansas City Journal.
