GRAIN GOSSIP

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: 1T
was the gossip Of wheat trade last
nigh, that May and July were 10 work
closer together in case the slow milling
and export demand for the cash article
continues, causing scattered holders to
get out and take the buying side OF
July, now that the crop scare season
seems TO be at hand.
Bulls were confident of their position
in corn last night. and believed values
are to work still higher, especially Tor
May. although they had no new theories
to advance. Specialists in oats pelleve
that the next incentive for an impor-
tant movement will be received Satur-

While the matter is still fresh in the
public mind, it is perhaps well to call
attention to the manner in which the
democratic party in this state has re-
pudiated the principle of the direct
primary in its nominations.
1t has done this at the suggestion
of the administration at Washington,
according to the democratic leaders.
At the democratic assembly last week
much astonishment was felt that John
A. Martin, who was receptive can
didate for Office of United States
senator, now filled by Charles Thomas
arose and withdrew from the race.
Amid the protests and clamors of his
friends in the southern part of the
state, who are many, Martin explain
ed that he had taken a dose of medi-
cine and had swallowed it at a gulp.
He submitted to further and later
cross-examination at the hands of a
reporter, as follows:
when did you decide to with
draw ?" Martin was asked.
"This morning"
"Was it at the suggestion of
Washington ?"
Eyes it was. But l do not want
to be quoted as saying it was at
the direct suggestion of Washing
ton. You know Secretary McAdoo

Wants the European Level

Senator Simmons, of North Caro-
lima, chairman of the committee on
finance, which passed upon the present
tariff law and amended it into its
present form, has the courage of his
convictions. In recent speech in the
senate he stated fatty that the real
purpose of the new law, a purpose
which he expected that it would ac-
complish ultimately, was to force the
American manufacturers to produce
and sell their goods at the same low
prices that the foreign manufactur-
ers do. The real point of interest is
the confession that the admitted pur-
pose of the free traders in tariff deal
ing is to bring the cost of production
in this country down to the European
level, which can be done only by re-
ducing the price of American labor.
The subject of American wages, as

Those Interrogation Points"

In his recent address to the Virgin
ia editors, President Wilson said to
those moulders of public opinion,
when our trust program is finished,
it is finished; the interrogation points
are rubbed off the slate, business is
given its constitution of freedom and
is hidden go forward under that con-
stitution."
Here are some Interrogation points
that can be rubbed off right now: The
balance sheet of the Department of
Commerce shows that for April and
May the balance of trade against the
United States was $127,453, ,75O.
The total imports for May were $685.
637,3s6. For May, 1913, they were
S133, ,723,713, an increase under the
Underwood bill of s29,913,673. The
total domestic exports in May, 1914,
were $157, ,406,572, decrease of $780,
649,22 compared with the month of
May, 1913. Taking exports and i'm
ports together the loss to our COM
merce for the month of May, this year
amount to $63,526,901, as compared
with 1913. These figures take whole
lunches of interrogation points off
the slate.
Our gold has left us to the extent
of S53,O00,OO0 in less than sixty days,
and for the first time since the Cleve-
land administrations, our foreign
creditors have been dumping our Sc
curities back upon us.

In the House of Representatives the
Republicans have been conducting a
long fight against the secret caucuses
by which the Democrats have bound
their members to united action on all
big legislation, thus placing individual
congressman, who might otherwise
display little brain matter, under the
sting of the party whip. The Repub-
licans have discussed all legislative
matters in open conferences, and the
public has been invited to be present.
The Democrats have framed their bills
in secret committee sessions, smother
ing out all opposition in their party
in secret caucus, shutting off all de-
bate by the gag rule, and passed the
bills through the lower branch of Con-
grss just as they have been sent over
from the White House.

THE New Freedom"

Under the benefcient sway of Pres
ident Wilson's New Freedom" Louis
lana democrats have had their splen-
did sugar industry ruined, have failed
to care for their great and growing
gulf region trade and have had their
assay office taken away from them.
There appears now to be nothing left
for New Orleans and its neighbors
but to petition democratic president
for the return of the benevolent des-
potism of Ben Butler to make their
cup of joy run over.

compared with wages paid in Europe,
was effectivly treated in speech de-
livered in the house, July ID, by Rep
rsentative Good, of Iowa. Based upon
official figures supplied by United
States consuls and other reliable
sources of information. Mr.. Goods
conclusion is that the American wage
is from two to six times greater than
wages in similar avocations in Europe
AS to whether American workmen are
direct gamers from the protection
policy, Mr.. Goods demonstration is
complete and convincing. Undoubted-
ly, it costs more to live in the United
States than in Europe, but that is be-
cause the American workman's stan
dard of living is immeasurably higher
than that of the European workman.
Abundant testimony is cited to prove
that the American workman is greatly
the gamer, in spite of the higher cost
of living,as compared with his brothers
in Europe; greatly the gamer through
a protective tariff. If the wages of
the American breadwinner are placed
on level with those paid in Europe,
he will have to live cheaper and con-
sumo less of the products of the farm
er, and here is where the American
farmer would be hit good and plenty.
Taking all that he raises, the home
market is the best market the Ameri-
can farmer has, and good wages to
labor and prosperous times make that
market.-National Farmer.

Standing of the Clubs

The Arkansas Vally League will
not last the season through if the
Lamar fans are to be made the goats
by the league all the time. Rocky
Ford is the only team that is willing
to come here and play ball under the
same regulations that prevail in the
rest of the circuit, and we can't speak
too highly of the general character
and sportsmanship of that team. The
schedule at the start gave Lamar elev-
en- games on the road and only ten at
home in spite of the fact that our club
has nearly twice the mileage expense
of any other team, but no kick was
made on this. Seven of the ten games
have been played and in only three
have the fans got fair deal. Both
games with Rocky Ford have been
played as advertised and played the
full nine innings. One game was
PLAYED out with La Junta. The first
game played with Las Animas was
nine innings but had to be started
half hour early to please Las Animas
and the fans missed nearly half Of it.
The second game with that team never
has been finished owing to the raw
deal given Lamar by the Las Animas
team and umpire. The third game
was only six innings as Las Animas
threatened to forfeit if they could not
make the train. Now comes La Junta
and leaves the field with a game un-
finished and not even the excuse that
the train was due, and the umpire
did not have the nerve to force them
to finish. The Lamar fans only ask
the same treatment that is given the
fans of the other towns, but they wont
continue to be made the goats. The
Lamar team has played every game
away from home to finish, regard
less of train schedules except one at
Rocky Ford, and that was
stopped by water spout in the tenth
inning. 1t is up to the management
of the league to make quick decision
that will insure fair deal here or
Lamar will be unable to ge an at
tendance to support team.
The game Sunday was an exciting
and hotly contested exhibition, full of
thrells and good plays, mixed with one
or two bad errors by Lamar players
which prevented Fred Littler from
having the easy victory his pitching
deserved. He was at his best and
twice pitched himself out of bad holes
which errors had brought about. Even
