PLAIN TRUTH FOR FARMERS
Statement That Good Times viii Con-
tinue, No Matter Who Is Elected, Is
Shown to Be False, Because Legls-
Iation Affects Prices of Farm Prod
ucts.

In recent issue of Successful Farm
ing, under the heading "A Popularity
Contest" there appeared among 9TH
er things this paragraph:
This is the year of our Lord 1912,
when the farmers push back the eX-
cited and noisy politicians and say
Go chase yourself. You can't make
prosperity any more than you can
make rain or sunshine The goods
you are talking about are adulterated
with ninety-nine per cent selfishness
and political rot. We've got the gen
uine over in our tent. Goodbye"
The paragraph was written in good
faith, doubtless by one who honestly
believes the prosperity of this country
will not be In any way affected, no
matter how the election goes In No
vember.
That was precisely the position
taken by the Democratic orators and
newspapers in 1892. That was year
of most. bountiful crops. it will be re-
membered, and good prices. Facto-
ries were running full force, capital
was eagerly seeking investment, labor
was fully employed. In word, 1t was
the most prosperous year the country
had known up to that time. The Re-
publicans tried to make the people be-
lieve that they ought not to endanger
that prosperity by changing political
management. But they were jeered
then as the above paragraph in Sue
cessful Farming jeers them now.
Prosperity is gift of God and not
of politicians" the Republicans were
told, and they were accused of sort
of blasphemy for attempting to argue
that a Democratic victory might bring
disaster, AS a matter of fact nobody
expected a Democratic victory, SO
business went booming right along un
til election day.
But when 1t became known that
Cleveland had been elected and would
have a Democratic congress with him
pledged to reduce the tariff, there
| came about an immediate change over
the whole face of the business world
Manufacturers did rot dare fill theil
warehouses full Of goods which NIGH
have to compete with similar articles
of foreign make. Jobbers and whole
! salers restricted their orders to i'm
mediate needs, while all over the
country retailers bought from day t.
day because they did not want thei
shelves filed with high-priced goods
when the lowpriced flood came in
And SO II happened that although tin
new tariff bill was not passed TO
more than a year after Cleveland
election, the panic began at once. No
what the Democratic party actuall,
did but what 1t was threatening to d.

Diplomacy In Small Things.

Little Eloise Cave, aged seven years,
was visiting her grandmother in Madi-
son, Va, and was sent to carry a
saucer of ice cream to neighbor. BY
the exercise of infinite care she con-
veyed her burden safely to the house
and gave it into the hands of the lady
for whom 1t was intended. The lady,
however, was less careful than Eloise
had been. and dropped the saucer and
broke it.

the little diplomat, without an instant's
hesitation. 81 don't think grandma
has cup to match the saucer. If she

Columbus.-In proclamation just
issued by Gov. Harmon, Sunday.
Oct. 81, is designated "Tubercu.
losis Day." and the people Of Ohio
are asked to observe it as such. Phil
anthropic organizations and individ-
uals are urged to aid the movement
to stamp out this disease, which an
nually destroys 100000 in the United
States. The governors proclamation
is as follows:
1.-THE terrible ravages of tubercu-
losis in the United States, destroying,
as 1t does, 100000 persons each year,
has led to organized fight in this coun-
try looking toward its extinction. Sci.
entific research has disclosed its pre-
vention, and, under favorable condi-
tions, the cure. Societies have been
formed over the world to- combat this
plague, rightly called the greatest Of
all the ills which destroy human life.
"This should be followed by general
information on the part of our people
as to its cause and methods by which
it's fearful work may be conquered.
In this way alone can this monster,
which every year consumes thousands
of lives, millions of money, untold
physical suffering and misery, be
finally stamped out.
ITO the end that Ohio may earnest
ly engage In this most laudable ef-
fort, all philanthropic organizations
and all individuals are requested to
observe Sunday, Oct. 27, 1912, desig-
mated as tuberculosis Day, in spread
ing every form of information as to
the character, prevention and cure of
tuberculosis"

Nav Test Opinion in Court.

1t has been learned that suit may
be started soon to test the correct
ness of Attorney General Hogan's
opinion to State Insurance Superin-
tendent Moore and the state liability
board of awards, that an insurance
company cannot contract in Ohio to
indemnify an employer from the result
of injuries occasioned by his willful
act or from his failure to observe the
laws for the protection of the life and
safety of employees.
Nearly every company operating in
the state has protested that the opin-
ion is not correct and that adoption of
the requirements as broad as embod-
led In the order would drive them out
of the state and preclude many mil
lion dollars worth of business.
