It is in vain, we've often heard, ' To spread the net before the bird.

Of all fool-fools the worst are those * Who furnish weapons for their foes. > SCARED YEARS AGO {7 To those who may wonder why the special interests are resorting to such desperate tactics as those tried against | the’Nonpartisan league, the following “story from the Wall Street Journal, showing 'a case of cold feet many years ago, will be interesting: “The 'true story is that Stillman, H. H. Rogers and William Rockefeller worked as a triumvirate. in financial affairs. Rogers planned and traded, William Rockefeller stood behind Rogers, and divided with him, and Stillman was banker for both. “Later Mr. Stillman summoned his two associates and said to. Mr. Rogers and William Rockefeller: ‘We have worked together for many pears. In my judgment the time for profits in promotions and financiering is ended. The public is antagonistic to further progress through combinations—an- tagonistic to combinations, antago- nistic to profits, and antagonistic to the fortunes made therefrom, irre- spective of any public service perform- ed. . I propose to retire.’ “Mr. Rogers said, ‘I propose to keep on.’ “The partnership there ended.” The Journal also adds this comment for its Wall street subscribers: “The recent estimates of Mr. Still- man’s wealth are laughable to those Next to. John D. ' PAGE Rockefeller he was one of the very rich men. of this country. , Before he retired, several years ago, he was worth more than $300,000,000.” A FARMERS’ -AD The Farmers’ Reporter of Marshall, Minn., which, by the way, is a farmer- owned paper, carries an advertise- | ment which reads as follows: “Balaton Farmers’ Co-Operative “company is in fact a farmers’ ele- vator, organized in 1507. We not, only elevate your GRAIN, BUT - YOUR INTELLECT. We do busi- ness in the theory of live and let live. If you are a Tory or a Hot- tentot you get the same treat- ment-as a co-operator. In con- nection we handle flour, feed, salt, coal, twine and seeds, AND A FEW REMNANTS OF GOOD WILL TO HUMANITY. Our motto, JUSTICE TO ALL, SPE- CIAL PRIVILEGE TO NONE. United we stand, divided we fall. If you believe IN THESE PRIN- CIPLES, DO YOUR BUSINESS WITH AN INSTITUTION OR- GANIZED FOR JUSTICE AND NOT FOR PROFIT.” . If the Balaton Farmers’ Co-Opera- tive company puts into its business as much ginger as it gets into this advertisement, it will bring a ot of grief to the special interests.
