represented. Alfred W. Dodsworth
arrived at tho committee room with
a list of questions ho wanted pro
pounded to him, Impelled by what
ho regarded as misrepresentation of
tho attitude of his paper. The testi
mony, however, suddenly broadened
and tho witness sought refuge In
referring tho committee to his broth
er, now In Now York, for detailed en
lightenment. Tho witness said his
paper novor had been subsidized by
any Interests whatever, and its busi
ness and editorial columns had no
relation. But, ho testified, about
six years ago, a person came into
his ofilco and offered to pay me
Journal of Commerce $100,000, tak
ing ono million copies of his paper
for tho insertion of an article In one
issue supporting tho ship subsidy
legislation. This man refused to
disclose his identity unless his propo
sition was to bo accepted. His prop
osition was, in tho event of accept
ance, to make out a certified check
Immediately for $10,000 to bind tho
agreement, and to pay the balance of
$90,000 upon publication of the ar
ticle. Mr. Dodsworth said ho imme
diately called his brother, John W !
into his office as a witness to tho
conversation and the proposition waB
declined. That, however, was only
one such event. Another man about
two years ago, Dodsworth said, tried
to buy tho support of the paper for
$40,000, and in tho Spanish-American
war tho Spanish government
tried to buy tho paper's Influence.
Chairman Olcott asked the witness
who represented the Spanish govern
ment when it tried to buy his paper's
support. Mr., Dodsworth replied
that v the proposition came through
Chajjle8r A. Conant, who was then
thev paper's Washington correspon
dent. Pressed as to tho identity ot
J the man who made the offer, Mr.
Dodsworth said his father or brother
may have been told, but he himself
had not."
An ABSOclated Press dispatch says:
"The 'boycott' case of the Bucks
Stove and Range company of St.
Louis against tho American Federa
tion of Labor came to a dramatic
closo in tho supreme court of the
United States, which decided that it
was a question it would not hear.
The court proceeded to near argu
ments on the 'contempt' case which
arose out of tho 'boycott' case. The
court arrived at the conclusion that
tho boycott caso was moot, or one
leaving nothing ubstantlal to bo de
cided, when attorneys on both sides,
being questioned, informed the court
that an agreement had been entered
into between the company and the
federation for tho settlement of their
disputes. Chief Justice White an
nounced that the court considered
that this left nothing but the matter
of costs to be determined upon and
that nothing remained for the court
to enjoin if the case was passed upon
finally. It was held that the case
could not be held e simply to deter
mine who should pay the costs."
Republican leaders say they will
fight tho Canadian reciprocity agree
ment. Senator Lafo Young says it
means ruin to America. Democratic
leaders favor it.
A petition for rehearing in the
guaranteed bank case was filed in the
United States supreme court by C.
B. Ames, attorney for the Noble
State Bank of Oklahoma.

FRANKLIN ON EARLY MARBIAGH
Indeed, from marriages that have
fallen under my observation, I am
rather inclined to think that early
ones stand the best chance of hap
piness. The temper and nabits of tho
young are not yet become so stiff,
and uncomplying, as when more ad
vanced in life; they form more easily,
to each other, and hence, many occa
sions of disgust are removed. And
if youth has less of that prudence
which is necessary to manage a fam
ily, yet the parents and eldpr friends
of young married persons are gener
ally at hand to afford their advice,
which amply supplies' that defect and,
by early marriage, youth is sooner
formed to regular and useful life;
and possibly some of those accidents
or connections, that might have in
jured the constitution, or reputation,
or both, are thereby happily; pre
vented. " . '
Particular circumstances of partic
ular persons may possibly sometimes
make it prudent to delay entering
into that state; but, in general, when
nature has rendered our bodies fit
for Jt, the presumption Is in nature's
favor, that she aas not judged amiss
in making us desire it. Late mar
riages are often attended, too,. With,
this further inconvenience, that there
is not the same chance .that the par
ents should live to see their offspring
educated. "Late children," says the
Spanish proverb, "are early1 orphans."
A melancholy reflection to those
whose case it' may be! With us in
America marriages are generally in
the morning of life; our children
are therefore educated, and settled
by noon; and thus, our business be
ing done, we have afternoon and
evening to ourselves. From Benja
min 'Franklin's Autobiography.

A Profit of
$7,000
From But 24 Acres
Mr. Chrrles Volz realized more than $7,000 CLEAR MONEY
from his onion crop, harvested during the season of 1910, from
only 24 acres of his farm near Mission, Texas. This largo sum
represents tho actual net cash returns, after deducting $75 per
acre for tho cost of planting, growing and harvesting tho crop,
and $1,700 paid for crates.
Mr. Volz made his first shipment March 19 and tho last ship
ment April 22, and received an average net price of $1.25 per
crate for his onions. His first shipment was a part of the first
car of onions in tho United States to bo shipped direct from the
field to market dining the season of 1910.
Tho bulk of Mr. Volz's onions were shipped in car lots to New
York, Philadelphia, Washington, Boston, Cincinnati, and other
leading cities of tho United States.
Mr, Volz's success at Mission is not unusual. Others are also
making big money from their onions. In 1910 Mission led the
ontlro Rio Grande Valley in tho number of onion shipments, and
ranks first among tho onion growing districts of Texas for the
average prices received.
But onion growing is only a part of the income a grower de-
