McDONALD, Editor Puviished avery Thursday and entered in thepostofMcee, lLigonler, Jud as second-cinss matter PHOXE NO ;i_ - * g - % | - The Chicago Journal thinks thiat the senate is on trial for its life before the people with ita present consideration of the tarith bill. With extrense words it states populsar distrust of the body as shown by & seore or more of states havitg petitioned cougress to aliow direct voting in the ehoice of souators, - Congress wonld have done this but for the sennte iteelf, says the Journal, which continues : ' Piring of these rebutls, the state logisintures are now using the mandatory formi of resolution prescribed 1o article &of the constitution itseif. liinois and lowa are leading the procession. Suntiar resclutions to the otes they have passed. ealling for a eonstitutional convention are pow pending in various other iegislatures.: The convention will bemmandatory .it two-thirds of the siates call for it : View it froni any angle, as you please, The United States senate son trinl. The people have miet with mauy rebuils at its haods in the past The Payne taritl bill gives the seuate one more opportunity to shiow either its contempt for the great body of American consumers or its willingness to bidw to the popular will, - ‘ ~ There is & bare possibility that a senatorial majority will decline to execute the death warrant of a body tisat looks not to the people; but to the money power for inspiration. It may conclude to vote with the people rathér than let the people changs the mode of electing senators. o.ss e : . . Under the heading, *'Doesn’t this take your breath?”’ the Detroit News speaks to the never ending couflict hetween theory and practice, nevermore confusing, it thinks, than in the boat building industry of the country. It is well known, of course, that no American can buy s ship abroad and sail it under his country's flag or get an American register. The News goes on to HAY: = ‘ - ' : . The reason .is that American yards can not compete with the foreipn yards, according to the shipbiilders and the ship subsidy promoters. 1t ix therefore, somewhat confusing to have the Ontario & Richelieu Navigation Co. af Canada, having free access to all the foreigu yards, award the coutraot for & new steamer with 100 stawerovims and all the modern features of marine architecture to an American firm: The anvonncement is made by United States Consul H. D VanSant, who adds: “This will be one of the large nuuiber of American-buailt lake vessels flying the British flag The state department should call the consul on the carpet and remind bin that the trath should not be told at all thmes nor in all places. : - . B % R e Recently Prof. John M. Coulter delivered an address at the conference for education in the South. He spoke to the improvement of rural conditions, and said some things that were not relished. The Charledton News and Courier, commenting on the statements, makes some of it own on the general subject of the blindness of farmers in failing to realize their opportunities. It cites “‘Kansas: selling millions of doliars’ worth of eggs. and vet South Carolina buying chickens in Kansas.” 1t continues:
Food products rise in price from day to day, and will continue to rxw_-z because increase in the production of foodstuffs is not in proportion to the | increase of population in- any rapidly growiog country, where cities and | towns, with their manufacturivg peoples, are constantly expanding, Mn;i the farmers of South Carolina neglect a region pot less adapted o produe- | ing foodstutls than any other in the world. We have the soil and the rain-| fall for forage crops in abundance—but we import beef; we have grass on a/| thousand hills and in meadows for flocks of sheep-but inherited babit has | converted the luxury of & sheep killing dog into & necessary of life; we have a land equal to France or ltaly for the production of the grape—but we despise wines and force those of our owun people who crave beverages to drink whisky and “get drunk;"” and we vainly imagine that becansa the perfect apples of northern New York and the luscious peaches of California will not grow in South Carolina withont atteution, ‘‘come up, volunteer,” they will not grow at all in South Carolina. : ' . * e w 9 The Elkhart Review, one of the leading republican papers of the state in commenting on the statement that J. Frank Hanly proposes to stand as a candidate for senator against Senator Beveridge, throws a big brick at the ex-governor, Goal “Mr. Hanly has a good many of the insticts of Bryan in political matters. He seems to think that he sounded the keynote for all kinds of political moves, and-trecause a lot of good people shout for him who shout for everybody who does anything radical on the line of moral reform. he thinks that the whole people of the state of Indiana are waiting for a chance to elect a legislature that will send him to the United States senate. Mr. Hanly is one of the men whom the future will take delight in disillusioning.” ‘ ®RE e / ‘Health hints in the Chicago Tribune makes the point that *‘the nose is the organ through which the air should pass to reach the lungs. This is true of both men and animals. Experiments made with guinea pigs,rabbits ~and dogs have abundantly demonatrated this fact. A guinea pig with both nostrils closed died within 24 hours. Partial closing of the nostrils resulted in death in from five days to three weeks. If you are a mouth breather, that is, if you find it difficult to breathe through your nose, the wise thing would be to consult your family physician without delay." '
o . R xE RN v Three-fourths of the tariff duties collected by the United States government annually are paid by twelve articles or classes of articles. These are sugar, which in 1907, paid $60,000,000 duty ; cotton manufactures, which paid $39,000,000; leaf tobacco, $£22,000,000; manufactures of fibers, $22.000,000; manufactures of silk, $20,000,000; manufactures of wool. $20,000,000; raw wool, $16,600,000; spirits, wines and malt liquors, $16,000,000; manufactures of iron and steel, $12,000,000; earthen and chinaware, $8.000,000; chemicals, and dyes, $7,500,000, and fruits and nuts, $7,000,000. The total amount paid by these twelve classes of articles in 1907 was $250,000,000, which was threefourths of the $329,000,000 of tariff duties collected in that year. Further figures prepared by the Bureau of Statistics show that the share which customs duties have borne in producing the revenues of the country have varied with varying conditions, principally depending on the changes from time to time in internal revenue laws. ' ; : L s aa® I : Three elections held so far this week have resulted in dry victories— Jackson county with Seymour, the county seat, gave a dry majority of 320. In White county the drya had no opposition and the majority was 1270. The big fight was in Delaware county—Muncie—where a tremendious vote was polled Tuesday, resulting in an overwhelming defeat for the wets.” The cityof Muncie was carriéd by the drys by a narrow margin but the rural districts rolled up a majority of 2,200. They are voting in Kosciusko today and it is safe to predict a dry victory, but not by the big majority that was at first claimed by the temperance leaders.
. The Daty on Wheat . 8 The milling interests are contending that the only way to prevent the manipulstion of the whest market and “cornering’’ the supply to fores up prices is to remove the duty of 20 conts & busheél on the grain, and | thereby let in the supply from Csn. ada mwore freely. At the ssme moment Mr. James J. Hill is procisiming, with ancorialn statistios. that wheat growing is not Keeping pace with the growth of popuistion and | that the time ix not distant wheg the United States will not prodocs a sarplus but will have to import 1o supply ile own wants. : - The duty oo whest aud other cercals cor on any of the food producis native 1o sur sofl is and always has been at absardity and ite chis! ase has been to delude fatmers futo sap- | porting the poliey of protection. While we produce & surplus for ex % part the price is .ziams“z_u;nm far our wheat as for that from Cansda, or Argenting or Hussin, by f&m;wflflm* it foretga markets, A% one wufin't! ‘wupply growa shori belore the next senson’s in available, prices may h"»i manipulnted upward for & thme, not for the benefit of farmers but for !\‘hfi‘l profit of speculators and to the cont for the time belng of ls_fitizinmlpsi; hoyers and all consumers. Bat permane nt conditiohs are of more cou- j sequence than temparary flurries, 1t is true that i there ware no tarif! barricr aesinst foreign wiheat thin kind of manipulation would be more diMPult and less injuricus but mare inportant than that is the fact that the domestic supply ecould then be promptly n;r;‘@;%!vumtsw{!ffnr the bepefit of the conßulers. ; . While the regular market price is determined abrosd by the competitition of surpluses, it is subject to more or less fluctastion in the hotye narket by the immediate relation of Ewu;:z‘;fiy and demand there, and this
fluctuation would be reduced to & minimum by the free movement of supply to and from other countries. With no duty on whest our tneeds would be more steadily snd economtenily met. and as-our surplus narrows or dissppears this will becoine of increasing importanee. Furthermore, wheat is the raw ahaterial of the milling industry and it would be an advantage to the industry and trade of the .country if our mills eould manufacture flour out of wheat trom any and all sources aud distrib ute it to all markets at home or abroad.
