LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
That Wool Bill Veto.

Mir Editor: You didn't know that my letters to the Bulletin were kick ing up such a fuss that hardly mali goes by without bringing me one or more anonymous letters-one oay last week I received eleven-these letters accuse me of everything but good things and two of them have threat ened me bodily harm if l don't let the single track minded candidate of the free traders rest. The usual way to treat an anonymous letter is to ig- nore 1t. but one came last Saturday (written on hotel paper) that jump ed all over my letter that said ''once again, twice in two years has one president been called upon to veto a democratic tariff bill"
 The writer said: Your mind is fuli of gas, for Taft hasn't vetoed the bill yet; however, in the same mail I re- ceived my Bulletin and the first arti- cle it said was Tafts veto. My reply to that anonymous fellow is: You are partially right MT. Taft had not at the time l wrote the article vetoed the bill, and I left that loop hole open for the express purpose of getting some one to do just what Mir. Anon. did. By the way, l know his writing. My faith in MT. Taft keeping his promise was 50 strong that I could easily tell about the veto in advance-and after facts proved my faith well founded.
 A little more about that veto.
 The same day 1 wrote that letter 10 the Bulletin the Wall street and oth- CT financial reporters and Journals all said the same thing. Great activity in wool and woolen owing to the fact that Taft is sure to veto the wool bill"
 More sales than for any day in weeks, business boom at once, which was greater after the actual veto Oh, yes, 1t is amusing to get anony- nous letters from people who dare not
 come out in the open.
 l have not proclaimed myself a can didate for president or any other high office and there is not dough enough 1 afioat to make me run for any small
 office, but I claim to have the right | to speak my little piece and shall dc | it continually in the Bulletin and a half hundred other papers up until the l day 1 am sure MT. Woodrow Wilson 1 has been retired from active political 1 life.

HE HIGH PRICE OF REEE.

No one ever expected to see the day when steers would sell for ten dollars hundred on the hoof. which they did last week in western market, the pair bringing sS914O; and the stock raisers are not complaining. The chances are that the price may go still higher, but it is not the tariff that pushes up the price or that makes the wide difference in the cost of cattle on the hoof and meat on the table, although the democratic poIiti- cal spellbinder will be affirming that the republican protective system is at the bottom of all our woes and that vote for Wilson will knock down the price.
 The Bulletin will not attempt to conceal the fact that vote for Will son and change of the economic policy of the government will knock down the price. As like as not cattle will tumble to $5 hundred on the hoof and other prices may be cut in two, because the industries will be knocked out and the industrial work CTS be in enforced, idleness. The de- msnd at the populous centers for beef and farm produce will grow less and the market win be dull.
 It does look as though the farmers were going to vote to have all they produce cheap, and the worl1ingmen to have a change in governmental pol icy which will put labor out of demand indefinitely, and send them by thou sands to the selectmen and free soup houses for subsistence. This had been done twice and it looks as if history might repeat itself in 1912.
 It is much easier to pay high prices in busy times than it is to see every thing cheap and have no money to buy provisions with.
 Workmen who remember the Cleve- land administration are in no danger of voting for restoration of Cleve- land hard times.
