Public Building Bills Quashed.

Washington, D. C. Jan. 29.-There
will be no appropriations for battle
ships or public buildings at this ses-
sion of Congress.
This was the decision of the Demo-
Gratis If the House after a spirited
caucus tonight. The elimination Of
the battleship appropriation was a
surprise the caucus being called for
the purpose of considering a SIG, 600, :
600 public building bill, recommended
by the Committee on Public Buildings
and Grounds. Representative Bur-
nett of Alabama, however, offered an
amendment to a resolution to dispense
with the public building bill, that no
battleship appropriation be reported
to the House.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Special Washington Correspond
ent of The Times.
By CLYDE II. Tsvenuer.
Washington, D. C.-Here is some
more evidence of how protection"
does not protect the workingman.
The following is an extract from
the appeal sent by the 5000 men,
women and children striking textile
workers at Lawrence, Mass, to VIM.
M. Wood, president of the wooden
trust:
1--WE are of the opinion that you
have had ample time to consider the
demands of the men, women and
children who have made the Ameri-
can Wooden Company what it is today.
In view of the fact that machinery has
been improved, the workers turn off
more and more work, but they are
not paid accordingly, even though the
price of food, clothing and shelter has
in many cases increased so and even
100 per cent within the last few years.
eve, the committee, are willing to
meet the officials of the company at
auy time and submit the grievances
Of the strikers. So if you believe in
a square deal you will not refuse to
meet with us, but will come forward
at once and try to bring the trouble
to a final conclusion. You must bear
in mind the fact that these workers
have not gone on a strike for light
or transient reasons, but because they
could no longer bear up under the
burdens laid upon their shoulders.
The American Wooden Company has
within the last few years built several
mills, which are paid tor, according to
your own figures, and the company
has even in the worst of time managed
to pay dividends.
"The workers are of the opinion
that the only competition left is the
struggle among themselves for a
miserable job at S., 81 or S8a week. ="
This is how Schedule X "protects"
the workingman, solely for whose
benefit the payne Aldrich bill accord
ing to Payne and Aldrich was passed.
Since the protectionists admit that
Schedule X, which places heavy tax
on every article of wooden clothing
sold in the United States, was de-
signed "solely" to benefit the work.
ingmen in the wooden industry, and
since the S., 81 and So wages paid by
the wooden trust demonstrates beyond
successful contradiction that Schedule
X does not protect the workers, why
should the American people longer
tolerate Schedule X?
Important Data Disappears
Several months were spent by Hon.
Jonathan Bourne, progressive Repub-
lican senator from Oregon, in gather
ing data on the subject OF the use OF
Federal patronage to control national
conventions. One night recently his
office was entered, and his files were
looted of all this material.
The Fallacy of Protection
Whenever an American trust wants
the tariff tax increased, it bases its
plea on the argument that american
manufacturers cannot compete with
the cheap labor of Europe"
In eleven months of last year the
exports of iron and steel products,
together with agricultural implements
and freight and passenger cars,
amounted to nearly $270, 600, 00O-an
increase Of about $54, 0O0,0 600 over the
corresponding period Of 1910.
These materials are exported from
this country to all parts of the world,
in the face of the competition of Eng
land, Belgium, Germany and France.

downward, the President makes that
legislation impossible with his veto.
Apparently it makes small difference
to MIR. Taft whether the people know
what they want or not.
The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1912-02-01

corresponding perlOu OF lSlU.
These materials are exported from
this country to all parts of the world,
in the face of the competition of Eng
land, Belgium, Germany and France.
The steel trusts foreign competitors
had the advantage of that cheap
labor" which the trusts pretend to
fear so greatly whenever a proposal
is made to lower the tariff. Yet the
trusts trade in foreign markets is
constantly on the increase. How
much longer will the American con-
sumers allow themselves to be fooled
by the trust "logic?"
Taft and the People
President Taft, in his recent speech
in New York, used these words:
''The people are not always able to
decide what is best for them. Agreat
many men who believe this to be true
lack the courage to say it."
In explaining that the people do not
always know what they want, the
President made no mention of the
fact that the people do not always
have a chance, under the present
cumbersome election methods, to give
exnression to their opinions. The
people, for instance, probably would
not be in favor of allowing hundreds
of office holding Republicans in the
South to nominate the candidate for
President, but how can they help
themselves? Moreover, when the
people decide almost unanimously
that they want a certain thing, such
as the recall in Arizona. the President
steps in and says they shall not have
it. When both Houses Of Congress

THE FARMER AND
 THE LOCAL PAPER

The Progressive Farmer, one of the best farm papers in the South, has the following to say of the lo- cal newspaper, and The Journal comments 1t to the farmers of h. dependence county as worthy ot their consideration.
 "A good local newspaper is one of the surest signs of progressive community and 1t is to every farm CTS interest to do what he can to make his local paper a good paper. It tells him things which he should know and which no other paper can tell him. Often 1t will be the best advertising medium he can use and if the editor realizes that the farmers of his territory are trying to help him make a good paper, he is more than likely to be Wiling on hlS part to do all he can to advance the interest of the ru- ral sections. We realize that too many local papers give practically all their attention to the town and neglect the country districts, but we wonder sometimes if this IS not almost as much the farmers fault as it is the papers. Get in touch with your local paper. Send in to 1t any item of news you may have. Let the editor know about any good farming that is being done in your neighborhood. Help him to see that the prosperity of a town is founded upon the prosperity of the farming country about 1t. In this way you can help him make a better paper and enable him to be of more service to you and to the community"
The Newark journal., 1912-06-14

$25 every day that he puts in at this during the Summer and Fall. In fact the writer has known small farmers to make as high as $500 to 5000 in a single season with their home canner.
 A good outfit will not cost you much. A machine with a capacity of 200 to 1000 cans per day should not cost more than $8 to SIS, and machinery large enough to take care of large crops of fruits and vegetables can be purchased for from S25 to $75.
 Do not fear that you will be un- able to sell the output from your canner if your work is properly done. While the home canner is intended mainly to utilize a class of stuff that, because of over-ripe- ness or defects, would not bring remunerative prices in its crude state, the home pack, when prop erly put up, always sells for a higher price than the output of canning factories, Thousands of farmers are every year selling every thing they put up at good prices.
 Do not stand back on the ground of inexperience. With the aid of the full printed instructions for its use which will be sent with your outfit, you will soon learn how to put up first class pack.
