Criticism Of the Shipping Bill.

A reader writes to suggest that re-
cent criticism Of the shipping bill is
unduly harsh, as partisan rather than
just. The truth is that the severest
critics of the shipping bill are Demo-
Gratis. They dare not openly criticise
the measure because they fear the re-
venge Of the President. and more es-
pecially, Of his son-in-law. Secretary
McAdoo, the real father of the shipping
bill In proof Of this. note what the
New York Times, Democratic paper
which is Loyalty supporting Wilson, has
to say. It says Of the shipping bill
which has gone to conferences:
1T is not the old bill. 1t may be harm
less because futile, but is still open to
a multitude of objections" and again
1.-THE shipping bill is shadow Of its
original form as it approaches enact
ment. Meanwhile the case against it
has grown stronger. If the bill were to
be strengthened further by the omis-
sion of other causes Of original oppose
tomas, for example, by the omission
Of the use Of Government money in an
tagonizing private enterprise-there
might be acquiesence in the fragment
that is left"
The Times, which certainly cannot be
suspected of Republican partisanship
in view Of it's loyal support Of Mr.. Will
son. does not say that the only pur-
poses in passing what is left Of the
shipping bill are ~ to save the face
of the President, (2) to provide places
for deserving Democrats" at $500 a
year and expenses. and (3) to make $780,
DOC, 900 Of government funds available
for expenditure by the administration
during the presidential campaign. The
Times can hardly be expected to say
that. But it does make perfectly clear
that there is no good reason for passing
it, that there are many valid objections
to it, and it leaves to the common sense
Of its readers to decide what are the
real reasons back Of the administra-
tons insistence on it's passage.

Sentinel Misrepresents.

But 1t was reserved to Mr. Twitchell
to make an objection to the new scheme
which was absolutely novel and which
strikes us as possessing great force. He
objected to the arrangement for low
rate of interest on the ground that a low
interest rate would encourage our farm
ers to get in debt.-Waterville Sentinel.
This sort Of political twaddle pur-
posely misrepresents the position and
the words Of DR.. Twitchell. We need
not offer explanations for him; he is
too well known to require It, But the
pretended "Iow rate Of interest" by
our up-river neighbor is worthy of con-
sideration. For instance the Wilson
: McAdoo political campaign scheme Of
fers no better inducement than six
per cent, does our neighbor know of a
bank charging farmer more than that
rate? Is it not true that the new
scheme Is cumbersome and forbidding
in its provisions without giving the
low interest rates which farmers have
asked? Is It not true also that banks
are glad to get good risks at as low
rates as the Wilson McAdoo scheme
offers? Can the Farm Loan Board ar
range to take risks that the banks
could not under the national banking
laws? II the government is to launch
itself in the banking business can it go
farther than the restrictions it makes
for banking institutions?
And above all. is it not true that
where farmers are paying more than
six per cent have they not secured the
money from private individuals who
take risks that banks could not? And
is It not also true that many such seek
ers Of loans prefer to pay the higher
rate Of interest to giving their private
afair& into the searching requirements

The MeAdoo Rescue League.

It was unfortunate that the hearing on
the rural credit law conducted by Secre-
tary McAdoo at Augusta last Monday,
happened to have been held during po-
litical campaign. 1t was also unfortu-
nate that the hearing was not more wide
~ advertised and more generally at
tended.-Waterville Sentinel.
It WAS unfortunate that this tire
mendous accomplishment" Of the adj
ministration, lauded and boosted In a
thousand ways by an elaborate pub
licity bureau COT deserving Demo-
crats") long IN advance Of perfection
and in advance Of every step for get
ting it before the public, should have
been rushed to the attention Of rural
districts in the closing months OF a
campaign in which the administration
is fighting for a lease Of life.
A skilled newspaper man came 20
Maine days in advance Of the visit Of
the Farm Loan Commission" with
voluminous advance matter for the
press. Republican papers Gin a cam
paign, too) were asked to publish
stacks of material setting forth the
advantages" of the new law. Secre-
tary McAdoo and others, quoted at
length, asked that the administration
advance matter be used as they fur
nished it, for fear they might be mis-
quoted" if it were not.
Another newspaper man came with
Secretary McAdoo and the Board, and
generously handed over splendidly pre-
pared reports of the meeting, to all re-
porters. 1t would have been a gold
mine to the Journals young represen-
tative but for the single fact that it
had been prepared in advance and con-
tanned not a word of description Of
the meeting. In this administration
preparedness" not a word was found
regarding the Maine sentiment toward
the bill. but every line lauded the
financial miracle wrought by loving
Executive and his coworkers, solely in
the interests of "the farmers"
Of course it was unfortunate that
the administration did not perform
this miracle for 1.-The farmers in an
earlier year. 1t was unfortunate that
the haste necessitated by the progress
Of the campaign could not have been
more deliberate. I. is unfortunate
that bankers are calling the bluff" of
political boomers OF the miracle, by
demanding the names OF some Of the
farmers whom the banks are refus-
ing loans daily" TIE banks are ready
for good risks in Maine at the rate
which the government SO generously
offers. Under government provisions
the banks must require good security;
they are associations demanding but
two names, the new scheme demands
ten; the banks are glad to get good
risks at six per cent, the McAdoo
scheme offers nothing better-our up
river neighbor calls it "a low rate Of
interest"
Fooled in securing a wholly untrue,
Unfair. radically partisan report Of the
McAdoo bid for the farmer vote, the

of the administration drop their mask

The Happiest Heart.

Who drives the horses of the sun
Shall lord it but day:
Better the lowly deed were done
And kept the humble way.
The rust will find the sword Of fame,
The dust will hide the crown:
Aye. none shall nail so high his name
Time will not tear it down.
The happiest heart that ever beat
Was in some quiet breast
That found the common daylight sweet,
And left to Heaven the rest.
