OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS | | | - i < A A il ‘Three Months —coceeeeee One Month THE DAY OF ORGANIZATION i We listened with considerable interest the oth%r dz.«y ‘to the address of J. F. Conner at the Chautauqua on “What's in the Farmer’s Mind.” Mr. Conner is without doubt, a farmer of education and experience, He is a man who apparen;l_.v takegy:\ keen interest in the betterment of the farmer’s condition. We/| were inferested in the proposed program which the. fan]ner has before him, as outlined by Mr. Conner, to secure his fair share of the income of the country. We agreed with Ml:. Conner th‘:lt | individually the farmer would have hard slegldmg to obtain| Tegislation which would better his condition, while .thro‘ugh such a body as the Farm Bureau his chances would be mfimtely bet- ter, Mr, Conner drew attention to the improvement in the con- ditions of the laboring man, which has been~brought about by organization. Then, if we correctly heard him, we understood‘ o him to say that the business man had been z\ble. thruug_h or- N THE w ganization to maintain prices on commodities, }A‘hxl_e the farm- = n'n:'m..;:»“ SO rden- ¥ ) me, I en looks burden ers, who were not organized, were unable to maintain the prices| 7" o0 W SR e on their products.

In the puipit, where are sunday the men to ring the_world’s tocsin as did Beecher and Talmadge m.. and Christian Ende and Brooks and Abbott and Storrs and Father Ryan?” m " There are two reasons for this poverty of church and state says Mr, Bacheller. They are the mothers of and ministers of today. Until recent years there was a force alive in this country which was purely American, It was the spirit of the Pilgrim Fathers which put character above money and made home a dominant factor in life. Under its sway a man’s moral credit, was placed far above his financial credit. If he lacked the Jmoral qualities, no amount of money could buy him into the cir- "¢ f cle’ of community leaders. Under the workings of that spirit “ghe Tw America produced generations of moral and intellectual giants,; Thur The nation was not by any means perfect, but it cherished high| Al W ideals and strove to practice them. i But then there came a period of invention which quickened business, Wealth began to accumulate and likewise the stories | ST.

Kelioe, lisrt S When we started out with D lGEseton the idea to sow profits, it was foredoomed that we should not harvest a crop of great men. The latter connote character, faith and truth. Successful business may have these qualities, " but not necessarily so. i The result is that there are two ideals struggling for as-| cendancy in this country, the spiritual and the materialistic, with the latter at present having the better of the argument, We are becoming lovers of ease, idleness and pleasure and are robbing the nation of homes wherein mothers mold men of moral character. Isit any wonder, then, that today in church or state there is such an absence of great personalities? 1 —DMinneapolis Journal, METHODIST EPISCOPAL t stor preaches morning worship wershi Evening Epwoith Leagne Pubiic cordially invited. . 1.

With the thousands out of employment and talling for the necessities of iife it is little less than criminal to know that thousands of bushels of potatoes were alowed to rot in Maine, freight rates alowing less than 15 cents a bushel to the producer. In California and . Florida, frujt and cabbages went to waste by the millions of crates for the same reason. This condition and the farmer, no matter awhether he is raising potatoes in Maine, oranges in California or I:rup('fruit‘ 'in Florada, should be given just remuneration for his labor.——Walker Pilot.
