bRYAN'S RESIGNATION.
Leaving Unpleasant as His Stay.
New York SUM-

New York SUM-
In almost any other circumstances the
country would have iejoiced to hear that
Mr.. Bryan had given up place for
which his fantastic unfitness has long
been but too apparent. He has chosen
to make his leaving as unpleasant as his
staying. He deserts the President at
moment of grave international complica-
ton.
He deliberately does all that lies in his
power to create a prejudice against the
note to be sent to Germany today, note
whose contents are still unknown to the
public His remarkably tender sense of
duty makes him forget that he owes a
duty to the United States.
Instead, and here is the injury that he
can do by creating a semblance of di-
vided counsels in the Cabinet, where he
stands alone, he gives aid and comfort to
the opponents in Germany and here of
the firm assertion of the rights of Amer
leans upon the seas. Germany, not know
ing him as his countrymen do, may be
encouraged in the illusion that major
ity of Americans will not hold up the
hands of Woodrow Wilson to every issue.
Germany could make no greater error.
Though Mr.. Bryan's resignation
strengthens the Cabinet it will be long
before Americans forgive the man who
sulked, and ran away when honor and
patriotism should have kept him at his
| post.

The whole darned country went free trade
He didn't need no tariff.
Farm produce was his industry,
That needed no projections;
And SO he votes for Wilson
In the nineteen-twelve election.

More than year thereafter:
"1m going to town tomorrow,
I've got a yearling calf to
Peddle to the butcher,
And wagon-load of Eaters
To sell to Spud & Company,
They're shipping out their freighters."
81 Frazee returned bout three,
His team was wet with hauling;
His wagon still unloaded,
The yearling still a-baw ling.
Free Eaters from Bermuda
Had made the price decline
Most too much for Silas-
Ditto veal from Argentina.

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

The foreign dried egg industry is one
the growth of which will be watched by
the farmers Of this country with some
anxiety in the future, unless some steps
are taken to meet the situation. Wit
nesses before the ways and means COM
mittee in 1909 stated that eggs contain
about 73 per cent water and 81 per cent
solid matter, 1t requires three dozen
eggs to make a pound of dried product
which is manufactured by breaking the
eggs into patented evaporating pans.
slow heat appl,ed, and the resultant des.
sicated mixture placed IN containers.
sealed, and kept at refrigeration tenn
peratures. A large portion of this pro-
duct was manufactured in Topeka, Kan
sas, from eggs purchased from western
farmers. These witnesses asked for a
duty of is cents pound on dried eggs,
intimating that unless such a duty was
provided the Chinese would soon begin
to take advantage of the situation and
get into our markets. The duty request
ed was granted. But the Underwood
law cut this duty to 10 cents a pound.
That this was too low, and that these
! witnesses were justified in making their
forecast is apparent from the statement
of U. S Commercial Agent E. G. Bah
bitt, San Francisco, California, who says
Several of the largest bakers supply
houses of the United States contem-
plate erecting factories and drying
plants in China to manufacture dried and
dessicated eggs. One plant has already
been established near Hankow and an
other is to be erected at Shanghai with a
branch at Tien-tsin. 1t is planned to
market the product in 1-pound tins and
several grades will be marketed.
True, it is Americans and not Chinese
who are entering the business, but the
eggs will be bought from China, and not
from western farmers, as formerly, and
the dried product will come into competi-
ton with the eggs produced in this coun-
try. A truly protective duty would stop
this sort Of thing.
