Two Bond Issues Coming.

Mr.. McAdoo's suggestion of issuing
Panama canal bonds to care for the
cost Of the border mobilization. raises
ar interesting question as to the abb
sorption Of these securities. They carry
only three per cent. interest. whereas
the foreign war bonds which have been
taken here bear a much higher rate. OF
course. 1t is always possible. by legis-
lation, to make a market for United
States bonds, as Secretary Chase did
during the Civil! War. when he estab-
lished the national bank system. But
there Is an enc to such expedients.
Moreover, the rural credits board will
soor have to issue bonds, and the ex-
pectation is that their securities will
be at four or five per cent. interest. We
woulC then have the interesting spec
taGle of the government competing
with itself in the bond market.

Reioicinu in Canada.

The reason for Canada's oh-be- joyful
spirit as a result of our November cleo
ton has a little meaning all its own.
and that meaning is not at all hard to
find. During the first 10 months Of the
current year our imports from Canada
totaled nearly $1s7, Ooo,OoO or more than
twice our imports from that country
for the first 10 months Of 1918, nine
months Of which were under the pro-
tective tariff policy, our Canadian i'm
ports for that period totaling $4,000. 900.
After glancing through the Monthly
Summary Of the Department Of COM
merce for September. q dozen items
are selected for which the countries of
origin are given, and the value of their
importation from Canada for the first
nine months Of 1916, compared with the
first nine months Of 1918, show the fol-
lowing.

An Error Corrected.


Editor Kennebec Journal:
In your issue Of this morning appears
a letter entitled enforcement of Law
signed wv. P. A." This letter con-
tains such q plain error, evidently I'M
intentional, that I have no doubt the
author of the letter would welcome
correction. l quote the following par
agraph:
1T remember distinctly what our
present governor said in his inaugural
address. 1t was that he didn't believe
in Prohibition, but as that law was on
our statute books he would see to it
that it was enforced right up to the
handle"
Referring to another incident, find
this sentence:
Il knew it was because Of a breach
Of promise made publicly to enforce the
law"
Governor Curtis inaugural address
has been published not only in PAM
phlet form, but as a part of the Laws
Of Maine for 1915. 1 have read it with
some care and / am unable to find in
it any reference whatever to the Pro-
hibitory Law, excepting that on page
.939 the Governor quotes the plank in
the Democratic platform which refers
to the law. There is nowhere in the
address. so far as I can discover, any
statement Of the Governors belief or
disbelief In Prohibition, nor any prom
Use, express or implied, that he would
enforce the Prohibitory Law.
I have no doubt but that your cor
respondent, after referring to the Gov
ernor's address. will be pleased to ad-
init his error and correct his state
ment.
Yours very truly,
w. r. PATTANGAII

In concert. tndiyiduals may ask re-
tail pficss FOR two reasons; first be-
calns sone people want what they

would have to pay the retailer. and,
second, because the local dealers
would have reason for complaint
against his farmer customers If they
should undersell him among his other

Mr.. Estes seems to have forgotten.
as do many others, an important con-
sideration, the fact that the farmer
is a consumer. and while he produces
much that others buy. yet, in producing
It. consumes much that others have
no need to buy, like feed, fertilizer
and tools.
