Yacht Club, as they exist shall gov

the provisions of the agreement be-

The question as to the length OF the
yachts has been matter of contro-
versy all summer. The New York
Yacht Club emphasized its right to
build 90-footer. In cablegrams and
letters made public, tonight, the Royal
Ulster Yacht Club informed the
American club:
Sir Thomas understands and APP
preciates the grounds on which the
New York Yacht Club desires to keep
alive the right to defend with yacht
of greater length than a challenger.
but he is convinced that a right so
opposed to the best interests of this
important event will not be exercised
by your club.
In reply the New York Yacht Club
reiterated that il could not accede to
the proposition that the challenging
club could in any manner directly or
indirectly be conceded the right to de-
termine the power or size of the de-
Tending vessel. so long as she came
within the extreme limits set forth in
the deed of gift
The Royal Ulster Yacht Club in
reply disclaimed any wish to impose
upon the New York Yacht Club con-
ditions opposed to those already
agreed to and signed by Sir Thomas.
The correspondence discloses that
the only amendment to the original
conditions agreed upon was in regard
to the time limit of the races, six
hours being substituted for five and
one-half.

Congressman McGillicudy in his
speech at Bingham, Aug. 25. told his
audience that 900 people in this
country owned 20 per cent. of the
wealth of these United States. These
wild statistics are taken bodily from
the Socialist party propaganda, and
have been published from time TO
time for the past dozen years. Mr..
MeGillicuddy appears to have just
learned his first socialist lesson. In.
deed. il is becoming a natural thing
for the Democrats to play the same
kind of game that the Socialists
play. Every leading Socialist the
world over is an out an out free trad
er. and free trade is really what the
Democrats stand for; anyhow they
declared that a protective tariff was
unconstitutional in their last platform.
Wealth Distribution.
Mr.. McGillicuddy ought to know
that there are no statistics published
by any recognized authority which
even attempt to show how much
wealth the millionaires have; all
statements relative To this are mere
ly estimates and if the Second dis
trict congressman doesn't know this
then he is too ignorant TO be Law
maker. There is one great class of
our people whom the census reports
do state very clearly the amount of
one kind of wealth which they pos
sess, and that is the farmers. The
1910 census shows that the farmers
of this country, representing some 3d.
000, 600 of our people, own farm prop
erty to the value of S40,99l, $4,000
The mortgaged Indebtedness of the
farmers was little over two billions.
so that the net farm wealth in 1910
was in round numbers $39,000,000, 600.
tIn 1910 the farm wealth was $780,
439, sol ,164 SO We see that in ten years
the farmers wealth has more than
doubled.)
This thirty nine billions represented
at least 40 per cent. of the total
wealth of the nation in the census
year. dS09). In addition to this
farm wealth, there are thousands Of
farmers who own stocks and bonds,
have savings bank accounts, etc. etc.
H. n. Casson, who wrote an article
on THE American Farmer" cites the
fact that it is the farmers of Iowa that
own most of the bank and insurance
stock in that great banking centre
of Des Moines. More than 5000 farm
ers own stock in the great Ill. Central
