He shook his head hopelessly,
answering nothing. To both of
them, in that moment, the bitter

Bob watched the night through,

Suddenly she caught herself,
breathing little prayer.

me not forget that there is a to-

From down the street came the
clang of swift footsteps. Her heart
beat time to the stride; she knew
who the pedestrian was.

was true, that from the very be-

had so strangely brought them to-

of one piece. She knew that from
the day in the mills, when he had
so roughly set her out of the way
and then saved her life, he had
taken possession of her soul. She
knew why she had never been able
to forget that scene in the mills,
knew the meaning of the restless

in her heart had sprung up an

The HumbuS Of Protection
For Our Farm Products.
h SmaO North Carolina the Reciprocity Bill

in the assertion that our tariff
has never affected the home
price of our wheat. however be-
nefcent it may appear upon the
statute books to our farmers.
The prices of wheat in the Unit
ed States, Canada, Russia. and
other wheat-exporting countries
are substantially adjusted with
reference to the Liverpool price.
The exports of wheat from the
United States to Canada are
greater than from Canada to the
United States.
1t is a well known fact that a
tax on raw cotton would mean
nothing, would produce no rev.
enue, and be only a subterfuge;
that a tax on wheat. barley, and
corn is no protection to the Amer
lean farmer, and is merely placed
there as subterfuge to mislead
him and to lead him into a trap
to vote for high protection on
manufactured articles. That is
the position the Democratic party
has always taken. To say that
to put an import tax on raw cot
ton would raise the price of cot
ton, when the worlds market
and competition in the worlds
market fixes the price of cotton,
is absurd. To say we should put
a tax of Is cents, as the Payne
Aldrich bill does, on wheat where
a surplus Of that product is raised
in this country and a large sur
plus is sold in the markets of the
world. for the purpose either of
protecting the American farmers
or to raise revenue, is a ridicu-
lous statement, for it would do
neither. On the other hand, the
growth of our population is such
that our consumption is pressing
upon our production, and the day
is not far distant when we shall
become importers of wheat.
When that time shall come,
and instead of having a surplus
we shall not produce enough for
our needs and we shall become a
buyer rather than a seller in the
open market, obviously that cir
circumstance will raise rather
than lower the worlds price.

Able But Lacks Something.


Senator Bailey Of Texas is doubt
less the ablest man in the United
States Senate and one Of the ablest
in the country, but he falls short Of
being a great man. His resignation
Saturday, and its subsequent with
drawal, was puerile. Many people
will agree with Senator Balley's re-
pugnance to what be terms "Popu-
listic heresies," but his ability seems
to have made him arrogant. He
failed as a leader when he was in
the House and he has also failed in
the Senate, all because he goes into
a pet and pouts when his Democratic
associates do not choose TO do his
will. Yes, Senator Bailey has won
derful ability but he lacks the quail
tiles that make a great man. He
need not change his views when his
colleagues do not agree with him
but he should learn some time that
other people have the same right to
their opinions that he claims for
himself. His frequent exhibitions Of
temper and intolerance have marred
his career.

7 am in favor of the pending bill
1 Of the gentleman from Mas
sachusets (Mr. MCCALL, which
carries into effect the reciprocal
tariff arrangement between the
United States and Canada. known
as the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment, which agreement was ne
gotiated by representatives of
the governments of the two coun-
tries, the United States and Can
ada, and submitted to Congress
by the President in his message
of January 26, 1911.
Objection is made to the bill
because it is alleged that the ag-
ricultural interests and farmers
of the country will not be bene-
fitted and will be injured by a re-
duction of the tariff upon their
products. 1t is well known fact
that the tariff upon farm prod
ucts has long been regarded as a
mere sham and pretext to induce
the farmers to vote the Republi-
can ticket and stand for the pro-
tective policy of the Republican
party, while enormous profits are
reaped by the highly protected
manufacturers of the country
upon everything the farmer buys.
SO far as the farmers of my own
section are concerned, the east
ern North Carolina strawberry
truckers have been urging me
for years to endeavor to have re-
moved the duty of 2 cents per
pound upon berries imposed by
the Canadian government, there
by giving them the free entry to
the Canadian market. They now
ship to New York and Boston
and other points, and could east
ly ship into Canada.
Those of the farmers who are
interested in the prosperity Of
the cotton seed oil mills would
like to see removed the duty of
III per cent. upon Southern cot
ton seed oil.
Taking the country as a whole,
it is contended that the prices of
wheat would be affected by this
agreement. There is little risk
