And Just to think, after the Nor
NAL seniors recently frankly con-
fessed that they wanted husbands
instead Of careers and little nurser-
les OF their own instead of big ones
of somebody's else, the bachelors or
Greeley have come out fatty and
tell why they are not married
The Tribune, Drawing the danger
of being accused of yellow journal
ism, thought 1t only just to find out
what the men thought about girls
adopting careers. The bachelors
were selected for interviews because
they are supposed to have devoted
considerable thought to the subject
of matrimony and possibly made
gentle effort or two in that direc-
tion. They are all supposed to have
a reason-or possibly an excuse
for not being married.
In following out its avowed policy
of the square deal for all-even
bachelors-ten of the reasons for
not marrying on the part of men are
submitted These may serve as a
guide to matrimony for some who
have not reached the uncertain age.
Grouchy old people are warned not
to read any further If they have got
this far, because what is printed be-
low are the heart throbs of the
young and not the philosophy Of the
older heads.
And her is what the ten bachelors
said:
"My position is too unstable. II
would be cowardly to undertake to
support a wife without a stable posi-
ton"

financial and transportation inter-
ests as well.
1t cannot be successfully denied
that the effect of the bill will be to
reduce the prices paid to a large
proportion of our farmers for their
products. This being the case, 1t
follows that there will be an imme-
diate fal lin the value of our farm
lands in all sections affected by Ca
madam competition. 1t is estimated
that the loans on farm lands in this
country amount to 1000,
and large part of these loans have
been made on the supposition that
farming was to continue to be as
profitable in the future as in recent
, years The enactment of the reci-
procity bill would at once result in
a general calling in of hundreds of
| thousands of loans; farms would be
sold at sacrifice; the stability of
many banking institutions would be
sue. Eminent bankers have recently
declared that the conditions relating
to loans on farm lands are the chief
danger of continued financial stabil-
ity, and I can see no escape from the
conclusion that the direct and i'm
mediate effect of this bill becoming
a law will be to precipitate finan-
cial convulsion that would be worse
than the panic Of 1907.
Throughout the New England
states and other eastern and north
ern states. many thousands of farm
ers have invested their small earn
ings in western farm and fruit
lands. Reciprocity will endanger
all these investments and will pre-
vent the development of the great
tracts OF arabic lands within our
borders.
The price of wheat has already
fallen from ten to twelve cents per
bushel since the reciprocity bill was
introduced in congress, and the
wholesale process of many other
! farm products affected by that meas
ure have also fallen. If the bill is
, enacted, prices will fall still lower,
with the result that the 80 900 900
1 people living on farms will have
n Just so much less money with which
G to buy manufactured articles. VIII
e a decrease in the purchasing power
: of the farmers benefit the factory
: workers in our towns and cities
On the contrary, will it not injure
: them by depriving them of part of
: their most valuable market for their
products? Will not this mean less
) goods handled by our railroads. and
: sold by our merchants? Any legis-
: lation that diminishes the capacity
of the farmer to buy manufactures.
, hurts all other business interests.
In view of the magnitude of the
issues involved in the pending reci-
procity arrangement, and its far
reaching effect upon the income OF
100000 farmers and the value of
their property, I would respectfully
urge thatthe matter is one calling
for full discussion and careful de-
liberation. and that it should not be-
come law until 1t has been passed
upon by the sober judgment of all
the people of the country
Yours respectfully.

MANY FARMERS OPPOSED
TO CANADIAN RECIPROCITY
TREATY BEFORE CONGRESS
President Of National Grange Writes Open
Letter To Taft Outlining Objections Of Agri-
cultural Population To Proposed Agreement
Says Land Will Suffer-

The following letter to President
la1t shows the attitude of the Farm
ers National Grange in regard to the
proposed Canadian reciprocity meas
use now under consideration by the
national congress:
Sir: / regret that on the occasion
of the recent visit of some forty rep
| resentatives of the grange to Wash
lngton, for the purpose of protesting
to the senate committee on finance
against the enactment of the pend
ing Canadian reciprocity bill, it was
not found convenient to arrange for
an interview with you, at which the
objections of the farmers of the
country to this measure could have
been submitted to you personally.
| wish now to present for your con-
sideration a brief statement of the
essential facts on which the agricul-
tural interests base their opposition
to the proposed reciprocity arrange
ment.
The declaration of principles of
the republican party, as laid down in
the national platform adopted in
1908, promised the maintenance OF
a protective system based on the diff
ference between costs of production
in this country and in foreign coun-
tries. This pledge constituted con-
tract between the republican party
and the people. and because of this
contract, majority of the farmers
Joined in electing a republican ad.
ministration.
1t was clearly established by facts
on finance that the cost of produc.
ing the staple farm products which
are to be admitted free of duty un
der the pending bill, is materiall,
higher in this country than in Can
ada Canadian farm lands are mucl
cheaper than ours; wages of Canad
ian farm labor are lower; the cost o
living is lower in Canada, owing t.
that country's lower tariff taxes OF
manufactured articles; and tn
farmers of this country are compel
led to pay out annually immens
} amounts for fertilizers, which. ow
/ ing to their great areas of virgi
: soil, are not required by Canada
! farmers. For all these reasons, tn
average cost of production on TIL
. farms of the United States is ur
questionably higher than on Canad
ian farms. 1t is therefore, self
evident that adherence to the plat
form OF the republican party re
quires the imposition of duties o.
Canadian farm products equal to tn
difference between the cost of pro
ducing them, and of producing simi
lar articles in this country.
Having thus shown by applyini
the principle laid down in the repub
lican platform the right of the grea
agricultural industry to protection
against the competition Of Canadian
farm products, no further argumen
should be necessary to show the in
Justice of abolishing the duty OF
these products, while making NJ
reduction in duties on MANUFACTURED
articles that will lower their cost tt
the farmers I wish. however, tC
ask your attention to some results o
this legislation, which will not onl,
greatly injure the farming industry
but the commercial. manufacturing
