Much has been said on the sub- ject of wheat prices in connection with the Canadian reciprocity pact and it has been spread broadcast over the country that toremove the tariff would the price to the American farmer. on wheat lower At present and for some years past, the wheat grown in the Canadian Northwest has gone into the world’s market by way of the Canadian Pacific railroad and the Great Lakes. If it had not been for the tariff, much of it probably would have gone to the world’s' ‘markets through the United States. But the prices in Canada have risen or fallen like in our own country in unison with the world's market fluctuations, and the difference between prices in Winnipeg and Minneapolis has . been ' about the same all the year round. This difference has been on the “average about 9 cents, On the 21st of March the price of No. 1 northern in Winnipeg was 91% cents and in Minneapolis on the same day, 994 cents. It will be:noted that the price of wheat in Canada on that date was higher .than the average price in Todd county.. - Some of our exchanges that are. opposing the reciprocity agreement, quote prices from some distant:station in Canada to show that wheat is: lower there than in Minneapolis, but this is not a true comparison. -Winnipeg is a great shipping center, just as Minne- apolis is, and the average price in that city is a true index. of the Cana- dian market. There can be no pos. sible danger of free wheat depress- ing the Minnesota ~market in the price. On the same day the Win- nipeg price stood 914 cents, the price in St. Cloud, was 93. cents. It bas always been the case that Canadian wheat could not be . bought at the local stations in that .country and brought to the. central markets of this country and sold. below our home markets. Indeed, the condi- tions could not be, otherwise when the prices are - regulated for both countries by the Liverpool market. While it is true most of ‘our farm products are consumed in -our own country, it is also just as. true that the prices are the same for this portion as for the surplus, which is shipped abroad. Our leading states. men have always.-known this, but have been compelled to: yield to the demand for a: protective tariff, and the big concerns that ‘were able to get great benefits from the tariff, have sedulously fostered this tariff on farm products i order to:keep up POPOOOOOCOOOOOOOS® © POINTED PARAGRAPHS ' © PP000OC09000000606 It isn’t that girls are so anxious to marry, but they think it’s up to them to beengaged.

Malaga, Spain, April 12.—An out- break occurred in the town of Canillas de Aceituno, in which two persons were killed and five wounded. Among the latter is a sergeant of the .civil guard. The trouble arose over the seizure by the authorities of cattle because the owner failed to pay the octroi dues. The cattle owner protested to the mayor, whose only reply was to order the men's arrest. The populace, which is violently hostile to the oct- rol dues, sided with the cattleman, and massed in front of the city hall. An attempt made by a small force of the civil guard to disperse the infuriat- ed mob precipitated a sharp fight, in which firearms were freely used. Spaniards Madrid, April 12—The government does not consider the rebellious incj- dent at Canlllas de Aceituno as a seri- ous affair. However, suitable meas: ures have been taken ta restore the usual calm. The Republicans are somewhat ex- cited over the movement in Malaga province, Portuguese monarchy appears to have inspired the Republicans, who during the past two weeks have been using the Ferrer debate in the chamber of deputies as a means of agitating against the monarchial regime. BANDITS PILLAGE " MEXICAN TOWN Twelve Villagers and the Local Judge. Murdered. El Paso, Tex, April 12.—Advices from Guadalajara say that bandits from the territory of Hepic have raid- ed Palos Verdes, a small town in the Mascota district of Jalisco, killing the local judge, Jose Montes de Oca, and ten other residents. The bandits are said to have secured some money and extensive supplies of corn and beans. A detachment of state gendarmes has been: sent in pursuit of the bandits, who are reported still to be in the Mascota district. Specials to Guadalajara from Merida, the capital of Yucatan, tell of insur- recto actlvity in the southern states of Campeche and Yucatan. Plantations are being raided, it is declared, and a number of Jeniquin plants have been burned. The aggregate loss is said to be heavy.” Among the plantations to suffer loss is that of Olegaro Molina,a former member of the Diaz cabinet. The managers of the Santa Rosa plan- tation in Yucatan and the Kayalp plantation in Campeche are said to have been killed. DYNAMITE FOUND ON DOCK It 1s Thought Plan Was to Blow Up Property.

ALL CLEVELAND MCURNS JOHNSON Former Mayor - Favorite - With the- People-Generally, Cleveland, April 12.—All Cleveland is mourning the death of former Mayor Tom L. Johnson, the father of the 3-cent car fare, and arrangements are being perfected for a tribute by the entire city which will probably take the form of a general suspension of business during the funeral. Johnson's death resulted from cir- rhosis of the liver after a long illness. So great was the prominence that Jobnson won in his eight-year fight for the 3-cent car fare that messages paying tribute were received by the family from practically every man prominently connected with public affairs in the entire country. It is estimated that Johnson's es- tate will not amount to more than $100,000. At the time he first became mayor of Cleveland he was many times a millionaire. In order to de- vote his entire time, however, to the ends for which he was fighting, he left the management of his personal affairs to others with the result that in 1908 it seemed that his entire for- tune would be swept away. He gath- ered up the remnants of it, however, gave up his private mansion for a sulte in an apartment house and then continued to devote his entire time to public affairs. RATE HEARING FOR DULUTH Interstate Commissioners May Meet at Head of Lakes. ‘Washington, April 12.—The inter- state commerce commission, or at least two or three of its members, may meet in Duluth. in June or July.

Result of Recent Order. London, April 12.—Owing to the cry of graft raised in connection with the war office’s ‘order of March 20, that all infantry officers in the' British army provide themselves, at their own expense, with crimson and gold {sashes for full dress, it is‘likely that the- order ‘will be rescinded and the war office officially probed. “Anti-Malt BIll Passed.

Calgary, Alta., April 12.—While meetings to discuss the question of applying to- the government for a board to arbitrate the differences with the operators, nothing definite has been decided. The operators have re- fused steadily to take the.initiative, claiming that the question of “open shop” absolutely cannot be the subject of arbitration. Meantime the supply of fuel all cver Eastern British Colum- bia and Alberta is reaching low ebb, even the railways having trouble in securing a supply. The Great North- ern has depended upon coal from the Fernie fleld to operate many miles of | lines in Montana.
