Canadian Reciprocity From an Iowa
farmers View. '4J

& - .
Editor Courier: AS the vote by
Canada on the reciprocity pact has set.
tied the much talked OF subject, it
might be we'll to yet hear an Iowa
farmers view as to its merits.
Ihave no doubt whatever, after read
ing and studying the subject carefully,
but what Canada did right In setting It
aside.
The agricultural interest Of the
mighty Mississippi valley and the
great west are identical with those Of
Canada. We can see at once by the
advance OF wheat and other grains
since the defeating vote by Canada
thai had the reciprocity pact carried
it would have meant lower prices for
all our grain, and not only grain, but
cattle, hogs, poultry and horses.
Our farms would have shrunken in
value and labor also in the same pro-
portion to compete with the lower
lands and products Of Canada. Now
who would 1t have benefited?
Mainly the people of the worn out
section of Pennsylvania, New York,
and New England and city people gen.
orally.
This betrayal Of the agricultural in
terests of our great agricultural Sec
ton by a few eastern states and New
England is too mighty and far reach
ing to be passed over lightly.
The mighty west will not tolerate
prohibitory tariffs upon every thing It
buys, while we are placed on a free list
along with Canada's agricultural pro
ducts.
The compact was not fair and was
Justly voted down.
Protection to our agricultural inter
ests has made the United States the
foremost agricultural nation of the
earth.
Why should we cater to the whims
of an eastern man, and sacrifice the
interests we have developed? We
know that reciprocity would nave lew
cred the price Of all farm products,
but we would have had to sacrifice IN |
with Canada to produce |
the lower cost. Hence it is easy to see
since Canada's vote has decided the
ssuo, that a new stimulus in farm
products has developed
There has been a mighty undercur-
ent amongst the farmers against reci-
,rocity, while yet holding a loyalty to
is chief promoter.
Truly we are satisfied that it has
,een defeated.

SELL IOWA ROAD
UNDER HAMMER.
ATLANTIC, NORTHERN & SOUTH
ERIN RAILWAY TO BE SOLD BY
RECEIVER At ATLANTIC.

Atlantic, Ia, Sept. 27.-One hundred
and fifty stockholders of the Atlantic,
Northern & Southern railway, who had
Joined in petition to postpone the
sale of the road, have withdrawn their
petition and the road will be sold by
Receiver Harlan at the courthouse

It seems probable the north branch
Of the road from Atlantic into Shelby
and Audubon counties will be sold to
the holders of the first, second and
third mortgage bonds, who are for the
most part farmers along the road.
There are three preferred creditors
with mechanics liens against the south
half of the road extending from
Atlantic to Villisca and the third in
order Of these, Ables and Tausig Of
st. Louis, probably will bid in the
south extension.
1t is predicted the road as a whole
will bring about 100000. The physical
value of the property is estimated at
over $1,OO0,O00.
