ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES
AN ACCEPTED FACT.

AN ACCEPTED FACT When skies are blue And soft winds blow And blossoms, too, Their faces show When bright the sun Beams on the earth And children run
 For very mirth; When buzzing fans Cool heated brows And father plans To rest, yet bows To mothers wish That they should seek No place to fish.
 But where each week The social swim
 Breaks people down And soon sends them. Tired out, to town When signs like these And many more May either please
 Or prove a bore 1t does not need

Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1915-06-16

The entry OF Italy as party to the
European war mas called attention to
the fact that for the last few mont rs
that country has been an enormous
buyer of American products, either in
preparation for her own needs during
the war, or as an intermediary in sup
plying material to other European
nations. For nine months ending in
March, exports to Italy amounted to
s13s, zoe, 900, as compared with $751;
SOC, 900 for the corresponding period
OF 1914. Shipments of wheat alone
sauring this period amounted to Al,
$4,000 bushels, as compared with
1,4oo, 900 bushels for the same period
in 1914. This shows, in large meas
ure, the reason why farmers have been
getting high price for wheat.

The argument that low duties give
foreign producers the advantage in
our domestic market, because OF
cheap labor, has never been re-
futed. But the effect OF the demo-
cratic free trade policy is rapidly de-
veloping condition even more to be
feared. The commerce reports, and
information from other sources, GO to
show that many Americans are find
ing il profitable to invest capital in
foreign countries with view to
marketing their products in the United
States. The erection OF dried egg
plants in China is an example. The
establishment of purchasing and ship
ping agencies in Canada for cattle is
another. Agricultural implements,
placed on the free list by the demo.
Gratis, in an attempt to fool the farmer,
are being manufactured in Canada
with American capital and sent across
the border. The farmer is not get
ting his farm machinery any cheaper.
The American meat packers, operat-
ing in Argentina, are finding good
pickings in our market, now that meat
Is 90 the tree list. And we are not
getting our meat any cheaper.

right. The resignation of Mr.. Bryan
has, II anything, strengthened Presi'
dent Wilson's hand. At the time
when the press and people OF all
parties were giving assurance OF cup
port to the President in this crisis,
the man who should be his right hand
in international affairs forsakes him.
This is bad enough, but to launch a
propaganda tending to hamper the
President is worse, and meets with
little sympathy.
