SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1910. Higher Prices on Importations. The very latest Import figures show that the prices of materials, manufac tures nnd foodstuffs brought Into the United States nre steadily going up. The cause may bo,as difficult to fix as that behind the advance on home prod ucts. Foreign exporters may argue that if the American people stand bfeh prices on things raised or made at home they won't cut short purchases of foreign goods because rates go up. On the other hand, it might be sup posed that trade policy would lead them to keep prices down and under sell some lines of American goods. However, statistics relating to im portation prices for the last half of 1000 indicate that the advance in the prices of articles brought into the country is merely keeping pace with the upward tendency of prices where tbo goods originated. It is no new tale that the cost of living is advanc ing pretty much the world over. There fore the cost of producing and han dling goods for export has advanced In tho countries from which we buy. Men in the export trnde are conservative, as a rule. They seek. Drat, to retain trade once built up; second, to guln a fair profit, and seldom put up prices recklessly. The more the Manehurlun railroads neutralization scheme Is considered the nioro It commends itself as well fitted to do equal Justice to all and to permit special privileges to none. This should not be an argument against It lu the sight of any of the powers. The announcement of the bureau of slatistics that imported necessities have risen In price as much as domes tic necessities will give do shock to th ultimate consumer. lie loog ago gavt up as useless looking for a place to dodge. .. . ......

In view of the prominence Into which forestry has been brought through recent controversies an 1 events, a word upon homesteads with in the reservation from the secretary of agriculture's latest report may help to clarify the subject for those at a dis tance from the regions vitally involv ed. Believing that the facts bad been misrepresented, Secretary Wilson said: "I made personal Investigation of these matters during the past summer In the states of Idaho and Wyoming. I found no evidence that the national forests are withholding from settle ment land now demanded for agricu ture." Under the act of June, 1006, land within the national forest area may be opened up to settlement. Upward of 1,500 homesteads, with a total area of 140,000 acres, were listed under this act In 1009. Improvement In farming methods and Increase In pop ulation is likely to Increase the de mand for farm land such as may be found within the national reserve do main, and the secretary remarks that the present Is not the time to decide where the line should be finally drawn as to the advance of agriculture Into the forest reservation. Fonr sugar trust weighers have been Jailed for crooked work that pat mon ey In their employers' coffers, and the trust Is put to the trouble of finding four "Just as good" to fill their places. That German who thinks he can reach the north pole in a balloon might learn something useful from a heart to heart talk with Walter Well man. Noble lords on the stump In the British budget fight admit that times haven't been so strenuous since Julius Caesar was campaigning In Britain, Chief foresters may come and chief foresters may go, but "Woodman, spore that tree," will still hold Us own as a favorite among forest lovers. Indeed 5,000 feet or so la dizzy height for a monoplane with a man aboard, but tho killing is no worse from there than In a fall of 300 feet If every city were to abolish "white slavery" within Its own borders the thing would not be a national problem. Don't Judge a town by Its stiff neck ed Inhabitants until you know whether It hus just pulled off an aviation meet Even snow Joins the procession of things coming the farmer's way. We have managed to Jog along very well without uniformity In many laws, but tho sooner the states get to gether on auto speed, regulations the better for humanity. It is sold that the Standard Oil com pony has bought $1,000,000 worth of coal lands. Surely Standard Oil has reformed If it has taken to baying the things it wants.
