The Gardeners9 Statement

From the statement issued yesterday, the market gardeners who have purchased stalls from the city seem to be very Indignant over the recent action of the city council in repealing the ordinances restricting the peddling of food products. , The statement contradicts itself several times and provea that a monopoly did exist and that the few who attended market could fix the prices for the entire city. One clause says: "We positively state that no combination or arrangement in regard to prices have ever been made or attempted; that the only influence bearing on price is the world-wide influence of demand and supply which govern the price the world over." Another clause is as follows: "Again, the action of the authorities in making the price of market stalls so high that farmers and small gardeners who use to attend occassionally with small amounts were shut out, creating a monopoly for those who did attend." From their own statement they admit that a monopoly does exiBt at the market house from the fact that the small producer is restricted, under the old system. Under the market house system the first man on market starts the prices, the next man that conies inquires as to the first man's prices and makes his quotations accordingly, and so on. It often happens that the market master passes from stand to stand and in case the prices are different he notifies the ones that are high or low and thus the prices are regulated. As a matter of fact a combination has existed for some time in this manner and as the grocers are dependent upon market house quotations for their prices, the market men control the produce prices for the city. As it is now, the producer comes into the city and peddles his products at a lower price, but is not subject to the quotation of the next man to him. The few days trial under the new system has proven very satisfactory to the buying public as well as to the producer not now occupying a stall at the market houne, and we can see no good reason why the protest of the marketmen should be heeded. If the city has injured the producer who has already purchased a stall at the market house, the amount due him for the balance of the year can be refunded, but the present system of giving the producer the right to peddle his products in the city at any time should not be molested.

Select Your Seed Corn Now The following bulletin has been issued by The Indiana Corn Growers' Association: WANTED 800,000 BUSHELS of high class seed corn by Indiana farmers next year. Indiana corn growers will require about 800,000 bushels of seed corn to plant about 5,000,u0i acres of land in spring of 1912. Early selection and proper storage of this seed should receive attention. SEED CORN SHOTLD BE SELECTED BEFORE OCTOBER 10TH, TO AVOID INJURY FROM FROSTS. The following suggestions from Purdue University are offered: 1 Select corn for next year's seed before October 10th. 2 Select only well matured and well developed ears of good size and type with straight rows of even sized, well dented kernels. 3 Select seed ears from the standing stock. Stalks should be strong with good leaf development, holding ear of corn by a shank, medium in length and strength at a point between three and four feet from the ground. 4 Store the seed corn in a dry, well ventilated place, where there will be good circulation of air about each ear. 5 Protect the sefd from rats and mice, rain, snow, etc. A little at tention to seed corn at this time will mean millions of dollars to corn growers next year. SELECT THE SEED CORN NOW.

OTDQTO CiiiMaDCIiEIIIlE

Under religious, educational and agricultural auspices Missouri held a conference last week on the subject of bettering conditions In our rural life. The purpose of the conference was to find out the real cause of the drifting of the population from the farm to the city, especially among young people, nnd if possible to find a remedy to check this condition of affairs. The Chicago Record Herald in commenting on the conference makes the following suggestions as a relit f: It is realized, of course, that mere exhortation will not do. Rural life must be made more interesting and "various," riches in intellectual, social and artistic activities. It is wholesome, independent and freer from worry and strife than life in overcrowded cities, but young people will insist on amusements, on something besides work and reasonable prospects of success. The Missouri conference includes an exhibit showing what rural life is under favorable conditions; what the clubs, libraries, country papers, free delivery, the telephone have done or can do for it. This is an excellent feature, but it must not be forgotten that these modern improvements and luxuries are not within the reach of most farmers. Isolated counties or parts of states should not be overlooked. The movement should stimulate co-operation among the farmers, their wives, sons and daughters, and should teach them how to organize little clubs, circles, social functions, musical and literary evenings and so on. The needs of the women require particular attention. Their life is inevitably even more monotonous than that of the men in the fields. Cooking, washing, cleaning, serving keep them busy enough, but there is no happiness in endless routine and drudgery. We cannot have too many conferences on rural life state, county and district conferences. The problem is general but the solution in each locality depends on the conditions as to roads, transportation, population in that locality.

Democrats Organized and Will Deliver the Goods, Jack Brill Says.

EVANSVILLE. Ind.. Sept. 30.

"John W. Boehne will have a more en

thusiastle staff of boosters in the next

state convention than any other can

didate for the governorship; the while first district will go to Indianapolis

determined to effect his nomination; you remember what we did in the con

test for the speakership last winter

and you may expect us to repeat," de

clared Jack Brill, one of the well known Democrats of this city to the

Palladium correspondent.

"There may be a fly-by-night or a nondescript here and there in the

First district, who for some peculiar

reason is opposed to Boehne, but they

won't count in the showing before the

state convention." It has been noised about that Mr.

Brill would prefer to use his energy in behalf of some other candidate but

he vigorously denied the statement. Solid For Boehne. "Get that out of your head, young man," he said. "The man who says I am insincere in my support of Boehne ought to be examined for brainstorms. There is nothing to it. I am for Boehne and we are going to put him across. When the First district ar

rives in Indianapolis for the conven

tion next year, all doubt will be dispelled. The opposition will fly for their lives.

Brill hinted that Boehne would get

a substantial vote from the Second,

Third, Fourth and Twelfth districts, besides a solid delegation from the First. He was asked about State Senator Stephen B. Fleming and his supposed opposition to Boehne. Brill hinted that Fleming would not oppose Boehne and that tbe Evansville candidate would get a fair share of the

delegates from the Twelfth district

It has been supposed that Boehne is

too "dry" to suit Fleming.

From Boonville, the rumor has reached Evansville that C. H. Hazen,

editor of the Boonville Democrat, is

opposed to Boehne. It was said that Mr. Boehne is held accountable for a

certain alleged failure of the politicians at Indianapolis to accord the customary courtesies to Democratic newspapers. Hazen, it is said, is an old friend of Samuel W. Ralston and his opposition to Boehne may have been inspired by his friendship for Ralston. He has made the statement that he would not make a serious fight against Boehne in the First district. Action Caled Unfair. The action of the State Federation of Labor in placing an Evansville stove company in which Mr. Boehne is interested on the "We-Don't-Patron-ize" list and In the reference to Boehne in the convention was denounced as grossly unfair by Jack Brill. "Boehne Is a minority stockholder in the concern," replied Brill, "and the people of Evansville well know that he has nothing to do with the management of the company. As a matter of fact he is at loggerheads with the controlling interests on other propositions and has been ignored completely." Brill scoffed at the suggestion that union labor would seriously embarrass Boehne. He admitted that there are 4,000 union votes in Vanderburg county but he asked, "What do you think they will amount to, in the election of delegates to the state convention?" The charge made against Boehne that he lobbied against the child labor bill was denounced by Al Veneman, last speaker of the house of representatives. Veneman said so far as he knew, and that he would have known if the facts were otherwise, Boehne did not ask a single member of the Vanderburg county delegation to vote for or against the child labor bill. Venemann, by the way, will be kept in reserve as a candidate for congress in the First district and his name will be sprung when the first opportunity is presented to his friends. Scales for Congress. Dr. T. D. Scales of Boonville, will be the Democratic candidate for congress, it is said here. He is the present district chairman. Scales has a good record as a pinch hitter for First district Democracy but he is coal operator and there are rumors of 'opposition to him by the mine workers. If state senator, W. B. Carelton were able to enlist the support of the leaders, he probably would be tbe strongest candidate because he would have the hearty support of organized labor. The Evansville crowd capable of packing precinct meetings and hypnotizing delegates, are not for Carelton. however. Evansville politicians have begun to speculate concerning the issue of the mayoralty fight, two years hence. John J. Nolan, who succeeded Mr. Boehne as mayor when the latter was elected to congress, is a candidate. Ben Bosse, one of the largest furniture manufacturers in the city, is being urged to become a candidate. Both men are prominent and allied with the same political faction and business crowd. Bosse has said he would not enter a fight for the nomination. Clay W. Metzker, of Plymouth, Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, spent several days in Evansville last week. Metzker did not ask for pledges but in several instances mention, of hit candidacy provoked public reference to "deals' as' a basis of support in . the convention, lletaker said he waa not out to make "deals." He .believes his early atart will serve as a buffer to potential candidacies, not yet announced.

It la believed, however, that not as many persons visited the Glen on Sunday afternoons as in the past years, this being due it is said to the fact that band concerts were not held in the park as in former years.
