FARMER MAY
BE PRESIDENT
Automobile Manufacturer Says One
Is Needed to Head the
United States.
THE MOST POWERFUL FACTOR

Shall we have a farmer-President
of the United States? and elected
through the influence of AUTOMOBILE
lists, at that? This is a question
discussed in a booklet entitled A
Farmer for President" from the
pen of Edward S. Jordan, secretary
of the Thomas B. Jeffrey Company,
Kenosha, Wis. The booklet tells in
an interesting way the reason why
a modern scientific farmer is destin-
ed to occupy the White House be-
fore long
Jordon believes that somewhere
in this broad land there is a practi-
cal farmer who is graviating toward
the White House.
He says: He will be young man
who was born on a farm and stayed
there except for little excursions,
when he discovered that proper
government is closely akin to prop
er farming"
The most powerful man IN
America today" according to Jord-
an, is the American farmer, and
upon good schools and good roads
his future depends.
He could turn into cash tomorrow
just part of what he raises on that
great farm which extends from the
Saskatchewan to the Rio Grande,
buy out Wall Srteet and nail boards
over the windows. Yet the great
prosperity of this country would
not be seriously affected"
The farmer" says Jordan, is
to-day rapidly becoming the worlds
largest consumer of all goods OF
merit. His daughter, who once
ran the tread-mill churn, is now at
Vassar, and the gasoline engine at
tached to the cream separator and
churn has taken her place on the
farm.
Sixty pei cent. of the output of
the Jeffery Company is sold to farm
residents.

John Rodenbaugh Travels Great
Distance Between Stockton
and Pennington.
CARRIED THE MAIL SINCE 1897

John Rodenbaugh, who has car
ried the mail between Stockton and
Pennington since 1897, completed
his contract and rounded out tri-
fe over 1875, 900 miles on Monday
of this week, being succeeded by
George H. Higgins, of the Sergeants-
vile vicinity.
Mr.. Rodenbaugh, who lives on a
farm in the Wickecheoke Valley,
half way between Stockton and
Sergeantsville, has never missed
trip Che or someone sent by him. in
the sixteen years, except for reasons
wholly beyond his control. and
scores of times has been the only
traveller to get through the snow
drifts and deliver his mail pouch to
the waiting postmasters.
The star route from Stockton to
Pennington goes by way of Rose
mont, Sergeantsville and Sand Brook
and for number of years the car
rier had to go around by way of
Headquarters (Grover postoffice)
until the office there was abolished
on account of the rural delivery.
During the summer months when
Mr.. Rodenbaugh was busy with his
farm work, Mrs. Rodenbaugh car
ried the mail, and she has made
nearly or quite one-half of the total
distance.
No other carrier has ever carried
the mail so long, continuously, be-
tween these points. The late John
Moore, of Stockton, carried the
mail for quite a number of years,
but not continuously, and Mr..
Gilbaugh, of Pennington, carried
the mail for four years, making a
total (including his drive to and
from Stockholm of forty-siX miles
per day.
Various other people have carried
the mail, for short periods, since the

baugh.

The new plan for the dissolution Of

Robert S. Loyett, chairman Of the
Union Pacific board. The Union Pa
cafic, nevertheless, will submit the
plan to the United States court at

attorney general.
The proposed plan now goes to the
court with the opposition of the at
torney general on the ground that
it does not meet the DEGREES Of the

The plan proposes that the Union
Pacific place its $126,OOO,OOO worth Of
Southern Pacific stock in the hands
of a trustee for a limited time, re-
ceiving beneficiary certificates" for
it. The stock would be disfranchised.
Stockholders Of the Union Pacific
would be permitted to buy a thousand
shares each.
The attorney general believed that
the same objections apply to that ar
rangement as applied to the original
suggestion of the Union Pacific that
the Southern Pacific holdings be dis
tributed pro rata among the stockhold-
ers of the Union Pacific. That sug-
gestion was disapproved by the SUI
preme court. The attorney general
declined today to indicate what would
be the governments course in case the
court absolutely upheld the suggested
plan,

HOUSE DEMOCRATS
RUN over WILSON
REFUSE TO YIELD TO REQUEST
THAT TARIFF cAUCUSES
BE PUBLIC

Washington, April 9.-House demo-
Gratis caucused again today on the
tariff bill after the majority of the
ways and means committee had met
to formulate a tariff program for sub
mission. The house itself had ad
journed until tomorrow 10 give fun
day for the majority to map out the
lines for the work ahead.
The caucus will be succeeded by
others, one each day for several days,
and all will be secret. A fight, back
ed with the moral support of President
Wilson, for an open caucus was lost
last night.
To an extent the house may be in
fluenced by the senate on the ques.
ton of dividing the bill for passage
into schedules.
Some democratic senators favor
this, so that separate votes may be
had on the sugar and wool PROPOSE
tions 1t is believed that President
Wilson still is open to conviction on
the point, though he is thought to in
cline toward Chairman Underwoods
idea of a single bill
The issue as to single tariff bill
or revision schedule by schedule
was brought up by Representative
Hardwick. Representative Underwood
lin short statement pointed out the
sentiment Of his committee in favor
of a single tariff bill When the com
mittee took a recess late in the after
noon, the question had not come to a
vote but the sentiment Of the caucus
apparently favored single bill.
The caucus adopted the ways and
means committees recommendation
for the rules, accounts, mileage and
enrolled bills committees. These,
with the ways and means committee
also agreed to constitute the only
committees to be named az the out
set Of this season. All the other com
mittees. by unanimous consent, We're
left to the discretion of Chairman In
derwood and his colleagues. which
probably means that none win be
named until the tariff is out Of the
way.
It was explained to the caucus that
the estimated revenue from the new
bin as computed by the ways and
means committee. would be $267sl2r
