OBVALUS GAZETTE. TUEPAY, DECEMBER 21, 1901. THE FARMER BENEFIT'IED. It is asserted bv at ""least a part 7SF f of the press which is opposed t the shio subsidy bill that it will be of no benefit to the American farmer. There can lie little question that our farmers are now making their products, for the greater part, as cheaply as possible. This is especially true of grain produc tion. A bushel of wheat is now produced as cheaply as it is pos sible to produce it. The wheat grower can not make any more maney through improving or ckeapening his process The of only remaining hope of increased profit to the wheat grower is in obtaining cheaper rates 01 Irans portation to the markets. It fol lews that whatever reduces cost of carriage is to his benefit. We practically have no mer chant marine engaged in the for eign trade. We do scarcely more than 5 per cent of our foreign carrying trade; mneteen-twenti eths of it is conducted by foreign vessels and controlled by foreign ship owners. -No one is so unso ohisticated as to believe these owners are sailing their ships for the orofit of America and the benefit of American farmers. Herein we see the main reason why the price of American grown wheat is fixed at Liverpool Were its carriage in American hands its price would be fixed in. San Francisco or New York. Uur exporters of wheat, certain of our 11 c il.- ! own carriers, wouia nx uie pru:c the foreign consumer must pay, instead of the foreigner, as now with his own transportation fix ing the price at which the Amer ican must sell, . With the carrying trade in the hands of foreigners it is but natural they' should strive to make wheat as cheap as possible to foreign consumers, while get- ung meir own cnarges ior car- .1 . 1 riaxe nence mey aie aiways 1 bears in the American market. The producer who controls his own means of transportation al ways has a decided advantage over one who depends upon others for such means. With our own merchant marine we would keep in our own hands the $200,000,000, we now pay annu ally to foreign ship owners, but the subsidy will never exceed 4q. 000, 000. By granting this subsidy we save to ourselves up wards of$i90,ooo,ooo, and this we do while paying our own ships the same tonnage rates we now pay foreigners. It is not at all unreasonable to believe that oar own ships will serve us more efficiently and cheaply. View the matter as we may, it is certain that with our own ships we shall not only save the money we mow pay away for carriage, but we shall more easily control the price at which we sell our products. " This will benefit the American producer, and none more than the farmer. Since we in no case shall sell Europe a bushel of wheat more than she needs we should cer tainly make every effort to carry all she mav need of us. HOMER'S ILIAD. Book I A. Literal Translation by C. MacLean, Ph. D. Vv. 285-291 Agamemnon's Reply to Nestor: Then the princely Agamemnon replied and said: "Yes, indeed, old man, all these things thou hast spoken in accord ance with right. But this man desires to be above all the rest he desires to have power over all, to exercise kingly power over all, to command all as a military chief, in respect to which some one, I think, will not obey him. But if the gods, who are always immortal, made him a warrior, do they on this ac count allow him to deal in abuses i. e. abusive language ?" Then the noble Achilles interrupting, answered him : "I have acted rightly for of a truth I should bo called a worthless and feeble fellow, if, forsooth, I shall yield to thee in everything that thou mayst perchance say. Others, whoever they may be, I care not whom, command in respect to these things, but not to me dictate, for I think that I shall no longer obey thee. And another thing I will say to thee, and do thou ponder it in thy heart: With my hands I never, I assure thee, will fight for the maiden either with thee or with another, since ye who gave ier to me take her away from me; but cf the other things which are near the black, swift ship, of these do hot dare to lift up and carry away anything while I am unwilling. But, indeed, if it is thy wish, come, make a trial of me, iu order that these i. e. the chiefs aboat Agamem non also shall know : quickly shall thy black blood flow around my spear." - Try this Office for Job Work.
