WASHINGTON LETTER

DUMBA'S PLOTTING:-Dr. Dunn
ba, the Austro- Hungarian Ambassador,
has frankly confessed that he devised
a plan for promoting strikes in Am
erican factories and urgently advised
his Government to authorize the ex-
penditure of vast sums to corrupt Am
this bland diplomat contends that he
was entirely warranted in his course.
When a British Ambassador, Lord
Sackville West had the temerity to
express his views regarding the po-
litical affairs of this country, Presi-
dent Cleveland promptly sent him his
passports and requested England to
send to Washington an Ambassador
with keener appreciation of the oblig-
ations of an Ambassador who was ne
cessarily a guestt in the Capital of the
United States. When Dupuy de Lone,
Spanish Minister to the United States,
expressed in a private letter-which
was stolen from the mails and printed
-anunfavorable opinion of President
Mckinley, Mr.. Mckinley sent him his
passports and a like communication
to Spain. In neither instance did this
evidence of self-respect on the part of
the United States strain the friendly
relations between this country and
that of the disgraced diplomat. Meth
er had the diplomatic representative
of England been guilty of anything
like so great an improperly as has
DR.. Dumba, but the lesson taught
England has lasted, for the present
Ambassador, Sir Cecil Spring-Rice,
has not permitted any person connect
ed with his Embassy even to take part
in the purchase of munitions and sup
plies. That President Wilson will
pursue a like course in the case of
DR.. Dumba is not generally expected,
put those close to the President real
re that it is not Austria, but the
German vote in this country, which
Mr. Wilson fears to offend.

It has not been long time ago
when the high cost of living was
discussed that the farmer got the
cussing for it. Recently before
the farmers had a chance att and
the warehouses, cold storages. etc,
were full with all sorts of food
stufTs the prices went up like sky
rocket. Investigation showed that
spectators were the guilty ones.
They advanced prices without good
reasons. Haven't heard any COM
plants about farmers raising prices
lately. The spectators are hot
at him though because he does not
run all of his wheat to market and
give them a chance to corner and
squeeze the public. The Farmer ;
