AUST Judges Safe"

Remember I am not discussing the
recall of judges-although / wish It
distinctly understood that the recall Is
a mere piece Of machinery to take the
place of the unavoidable impeachment
which Mr.. Taft in effect defends and
that If the days Of Maynard ever came
back again in the state Of New York
l should favor 1t. I have no wish to
come to 1t, but our opponents when
they object to all efforts to secure real
justice from the courts are strengthen
ing the hands of those who demand
the recall. In great many states
there has been for many years real
recall of judges as regards appoint
ments, promotions. reappointments and
reflections. and this recall was
through the turn Of a thumbscrew at
the end Of u long distance rod In the
hands of great interests. l believe that
a just judge would feel far safer In the
hands of the people than In the hands
Of those interests.

THE OLD FRAUD

Senator Hepburn, of Idaho, in the
senate yesterday made an onslaught
upon the newspapers of the country,
charging that they were responsible
for the crime and much of the
wrong-doing of the country. Hey
burn, it will be remembered is the
man that made the assault upon
General Robert E. Lee. when the
statue of that gallant son of the
South was about to be placed in the
Hall of Fame. This blatherskite,
who never faced line of bayonets,
was fierce in his denunciation of the
gallant federal general. In conse-
quence of the ridicule of the public
press at that time, the fellow made
grand fl asco-hence his antipathy
to the press. Every reputable per-
son in the country knows full we'll
that the suppression of the news
papers of the country would mean
the end of liberal government--this
republic could not endure without
the press; every backguard, every
rogue, every law-breaker, every dis
honest politician in the land is against
the newspapers. President Madero,
who succeeded to the presidency in
Mexico, is now in favor of suppress
sing the newspapers. yet the liberty
of the press was his battle cry against
Diaz, SO it is everywhere; when a
dishonest ruler or politician is about
to inaagurate a system of robbery
the first cry raised is the suppression
of the press.
The fearless newspapers of the
republic are the great bulwarks of
civil and religious liberty, and when
you find man railing against them
you can believe, without investiga-
ton. that he is either guilty of
wrQng-doing, or is about to inaug.
urate a system of robbery and fraud,

sence of humbuggery and buncombe

If a man guarantees note and

ment can be demanded of the guar
antor. Has this legal proposition
anything to do with the present
political situation? Mr.. Taft went
into the White House on the strength
of Mr.. Roosevelt's guaranty; Mr.,
Roosevelt now wants to take Mr.
Taft's place--does that mean that
Mr.. Taft Is political bankrupt!
And is this case whether payee-

BACK TO The FARM
An Able and Instructive
Article on Life on
the Farm

When the true and ideal phil
anthropist awakens to the crisis
which affairs in this country are
rapidly approaching, and he donates
fund for the benefit of worthy
and industrious young men and
women who desire to study scientific
farming, and later is willing to ad-
vance them money from this fund
with which to pursue agricultural
careers, then perhaps results may
follow which will tend to lowor the
present high cost of living. But
until the present acreage now
under cultivation is doubled and
farmed on a more intelligent and
scientific basis we need look for no
relief. Such philanthropy as this
would be more far reaching than
that which we have had brought
prominently to our atten tion in the
immediate past, for it would be SO
universally beneficial that it would
prove veritable boon to long suf-
fering humanity"
Mr.. William G. Brown, president
of the New York Central and Hud-
son River Railroad Company was
the speaker. Mr.. Brown has devised
many means toward bringing about
a change in conditions which to those
in moderate circumstances have be-
come almost intolerable. He is the
author Of that oft-heard slogan,
Back to the Farm" and further.
more he practices what he breaches,
inasmuch as the campaign launched
for the repopulation of the deserted
farms throughout the state has
brought forth splendid results.
Families are coming to the Empire
State from the Far West and other
points daily, and, better still, none
come empty handed. All have
bought acreage and already they
are reaping the harvest they were
led to believe awaited them here.
Mr.. Brown had this to say:-"The
attention of the people of all ma
tions has for the, last four or five
years been sharply directed to the
question of increased cost of living,
and various reasons have been given
for this increased cost. There is no
question that the large production
of gold, which is simply measure
of value for all commodities for
which it is exchanged. has had an
appreciable effect in this direction.
1t is also true that people live on a
more expensive scale than formerly,
but overshadowing these causes is
the fact that the things which are
not Injuries, but absolute necessities
used by all people, whether rich or
poor, have increased in very much
greater ratio than other commodi-
ties. Z
For example: The Bureau OF
Statistics at Washington In a recent
report states that in the ten years
next preceding the date of the re-
port all commodities, including ,ag-
ricultural products, increased %
per cent; but separating the pro
ducts of the farm from all other
commodities the increase in price Of
these products amounts on an aver
age to 81 per cent.
Another set of figures throws a
powerful sidclight on this question

A New York butcher has been
sent to the penitentiary for tempor-
arily inserting a pound of lead in
each turkey he sold. If the same
law applied to speeches Mr.. Roose-
welt could be sent up for life for
giving weight to his speeches by in
serting chunks Of the democratic
platform.
Graham guardian., 1912-04-12

the last ten years Cne acreage Qe-
voted to agriculture has increased
% per cent and agricultural pro-
ducts have increased 36 per cent,
but consumption during the. same
period has increased so per cent.
showing an increase almost three
times as great as the increased acre
age and almost twice as great as
increased production.
In addition to this great incease
in the farm price of agricultural
products our wasteful uneconomic
system of distribution from the
producer to the consumer has added
very large arbitrary charge in ad-
dition to the increase received by
the producer. Very frequently this
great difference is sought to be ex-
/ planned on the ground of high freight
rates, and it may be of interest to
know just what relation this sort of
transportation bears to the price at
which the product is sold.
The New York State farmer is
receiving an average Of about 80
cents per bushel for potatoes, which
are retailing in small quantities in
New York City at the rate of So 80
per bushel. The freight rate from
central New York, distance of
about30O miles from New York City,
is 8.4 cents per bushel. That is.
out of difference of $1.9O per
bushel between the price received
by the producers and the price paid
blythe consumer, the price of trans
portation amounts to 8.4 cents.
Investigations of the Department
of Agriculture show that the average
price paid to producers of butter in
the United States on January l, 1912,
was 2S.1 cents per pound, while the
retailing price in New York City
and vicinity was from As to 60 cents
per pound. The difference per
pound between the price received
by the producer and the price paid
by the consumer was from II to 80
cents, while the freight rate on
pound of butter frem points as far
West as the central part of the State
OF Iowa, a distance Of more than
1900 miles, is less than one Cent per
pound. Eye
*"Coincident with a retailing price
in New York of from so to60 cents
per dozen ortggs, the producer in
the Middle West was receiving, on
an average, about 80 cents dozen
Of this difference the freight rate
represents Ii cents dozen for
handling this perisbab'e comm JGity
in refrigerator cars distance OF
than 1000 miles, the railroad as
suming all the risk of damage by
breakage or delay.
With a difference of from. 5 to
8 cents a quart between the price
paid by the producer of milk and the
price charged the consumer in New
York City, the freight rate for a
distance of from 500 to 400 miles,
including icing in transit in order
to meet the standards insisted upon
by the Health Department, the rail-
road receives eighth. tenths of a
cent quart.
Il do not think either the COM
mission house or the retail concern
in the city exacts an exorbitant
profit. | do think, however, that
there are too many small stores, and
the waste of carrying MANY duplicate
stocks in multiplied stores, the dis
advantage of buying in smalquantl-
ties, the wages of multiplied clerks
and multiplied cost of delivery, make
necessary price much larger than
the consumer would be called upon
to pay if the methods of distribution
could in some way be put on more
economic basis.
