Many of us have fallen under the common self-deception that if we only keep moving we are doing something worth while. A man or woman who knows nothing about war and never thought about it, is assailed by an idea which he or she proceeds to make the basis of an organization, and forthwith there is another contingent in the field to assist in making the world safe for democracy. In the multiplicity of organizations we have no organization, nothing but chaos and a waste of energy and money, for all these war ideas contemplate the raising of funds. The spirit is all right; it's patriotism but it takes something more than patriotic spirit to make one really helpful. On this subject the Arizona Record sensibly remarks: It appears to the Arizona Record that the government could do the greatest good, from an economic standpoint, by naming a commission to restrict the unbridled demands of scores of socalled charitable and patriotic organizations which, with more or less alluring literature, are bewildering the American public under the pretext, at times, of war necessity.

There ought to be a bureau of official sanction that would guide aright a badly confused public in its efforts to "do its bit" in the war. We have looked over the night's mail; it is a sad sight, indicating that in one day thousands of dollars worth of paper a commodity that is so scarce just now as to throw a fright into the hearts of every publisher has been wasted in a day. There are appeals from scores of organizations that the merit of which we, out here and the same case probably exists everywhere have no means of judging. We see distinguished names on the directorates, but a few years experience with professional wildcatters causes us to discount them, and we do not know which ones to doubt and which ones to trust. iiiiv urn mrr ma mm mm imujvw tivp beef cattle.

Miss Bessie Farrier, of Plainville, rendered in a most beautiful manner that classical solo, "Sing On." She displayed remarkable power and training, and she is possessed of a wonderful voice, which will some day make her famous. One of the judges, a specialist in3 music, ranked her first. The decision of a specialist in music counts far, far more than the decision of a judge who knows nothing about music. She was followed by Miss Ruth Kackly, of Hill City, who sang a little sentimental love-song, "All That I Want This Wide. Wide World Is You, You, You." This song is old and by no means classical.

Two of tho judges, moved by this love-song, ranked her first. Apparently they could not appreciate really good music. We deem their decision of little value, for they are very ignorant of music. Plainville is ready at any time to meet Hill City again in vocal music, providing we can have competent judges. As it was.

many people of Hill City said Miss Farrier should have had all firsts. Plainville Ky.) Gazette. Great Northern Pfd 103 $20.40. Spot quiet; middling, $21.50. ijreat Jortnern Ore ctfs 32 IGV.

All normal men and women are pacifists. Some would have gone too far to avert war. They would have gone so far as to make war later, inevitable and to leave the nation alone and handicapped in the face of a victorious, powerful and unscrupulous enemy. But in some degree previous to a certain day last April we were all pacifists and there were many mighty good people among us for instance President Wilson and Henry Ford who are pacifists no longer. On that day pacifism should have ended.

The nation had determined after futile experiments that there was but one way to have peace and that way was to fight for it and fight hard. Any further peace movement became an obstacle to the enterprise in which we were forced to engage. It has been more of an obstacle than any of the remaining honest pacifists imagined it could be. It became a help to the enemy, an encouragement to him to continue in It became an instrument for the prolongation of the war. It is a noteworthy fact which could not have escaped the attention of honest pacifists, that every known and suspected enemy of this country was a pretended pacifist.

He had been one; he opposed with all his might the entrance of the country into the war though he had favored the continuation of the war in Europe that Germany might win. He was a pacifist only as to our participation in the war on the side of the allies; he had done what he could to embroil us in conflict against the allies. Now he is a pacifist only to the extent of hindering the nation in its war preparations. He sought to array public sentiment against the draft, first against registration for the draft. All this has been done in the name of peace.

The honest pacifists, those who have preferred an idea to the expression of a democratic nation are in bad company. They are pulling the nation back at a time when it must go forward or perish. These peace societies disclaim' any purpose to hinder or embarrass the government. They profess to be preparing the public mind for peace in the future; they would commit the country to a peace policy after the present war is over. Whether or not such a policy is advisable depends entirely upon our world-neighbors: if they are not peaceable we cannot afford to entertain such a policy.

Anyway, this is not the time to campaign for peace. It only gives the enemies of the country an opportunity to sheaf the nation of its strength for war which is now hern Pennsylvania 51 RnnHinff 7Cli broilers, lb. fryers, 24c; old cocks an dhens. 15(fi'17c; large Leghorn hens, old turkeys, toms, 21c: younK turkevs. toms-.

There were men in the-north who decried the war because they were southern symoathi7iers. THey were men who wanted peace because war interfered with business and cost them money. To all of those and their like Governor Kirkwood issued an appeal in a message to the legislature which is just as applicable to conditions now as then, especially the following part of it: "We are eminently a peaceful and peace loving people, and the interruption of our peaceful avocations by war and its incidents bears hardly upon us-but we must remember that the only wav to bring back and make permanently secure to us "that peace we love so well is to convince those who have thrust this war upon, us and to convince all others that although we love peace much, we love our" country's honor and the perpetuity of our union more." NEW LANGUAGE FOR SOLDIERS One of the minor tasks of the British soldier is to learn the language of initials. All departments, offices, and sub-offices are, of course, known by their initials, and as these departments and offices are added to. and necessarily call for more precise definition, the mystic titles steadily increase in number and complexity.

Following its sweeping victory in North Dakota, the league has invaded.Iowa and steps are being taken to organize in Minnesota, Nebraska and Kansas. The farmers movement in Iowa had only- a local political significance in the beginning. It was merely a protest against increased taxation.

Last year when it was proposed to build good roads the farmers united against the project because they believe it would throw a great burden upon them. By the vote of the farmers the candidate who advocated good roads was snowed under and the candidate with a middle of the road platform "was elected by an enormous majority. With a demand for farmers' elevators, co-operative packing plant's and market organizations which tend to give the farmer some sort of control of his own crop, bring him into more direct relation with the consumer and check speculation, this movement bids fair to unite the farmers in a strong organization. It aims also to protect them against the operations of the harvester combine and other trusts. But many of the grievances of the farmer will be met under the food control lawand other regulations of combines and speculators which the war has made necessary.

Still, the movement having been got under way and having likely, been seized upon already by politicians, it is doubtful to what extent it may be carried. Anyway, its development will be watched with interest in all parts of the country. No class of men has suffered more from lack of organization than the farmer and yet, he has been notoriously slow to take advantage of this system for his own protection in the past when the government afforded him no protection. Farmers as a rule are so independent in thought and action that they have baffled all attempts of organizers. In an economic way there can be no question as to the wisdom of farmers' organizations, but the attempt of growers to combine for political purposes is fraught with danger.

Such organizations will naturally lead to the organization of non-farmers. Any grouping which puts the farmers into one eamp and those who are not farmers into another and opposing one, would leave the farmers hopelessly in the minority. But before the present movement ebbs it is likely to have an important influence on the politics of the country. a lim ine iUlKJ IfetuoH llcaoc 1 Iron Blossom 11-16 inspiration 49 iron Cap 16 16 lerome victor 14 Jerome Verde 1 9-16 1 ivennecoit copper 33- Magma 44 46 Chief 7-16 Aiiam 34 Miami Consolidated 7 10 482.6 19'A 93'- 368. aai- 489.
