lean citizen, to take proper interest
in the politics of his country. On the
contrary, it is right for every member
to do all in his power, legilimately, to
influence for good the action of any
political party to which he belongs. 1t
Is his dnty to do all he can in his own
party to put down bribery, corruption
and trlckery; TO see that none but com
petent, faithful and honest men, who
will unfiinchingly stand by our indus
trial interests, are nominated for all
positions OF trust; and to have carried
out the principle which should always
| characterize every Patron, that
THE OFFICE SHOULD SEEK THE MAN.
AND NOT THE MAN THE OFFICE.
We acknowledge the broad principle
that difference of opinion is no crime,
and hold that ssprogress toward truth
Is made by difference of opinion, while
the fault lies in bitterness of contro-
versy.'
We desire Il proper equality, equity
AMI fairness; protection for the weak,
restraint upon the strong; in short,
justly distributed burdens, and Justly
distributed power. These are Ameri-
can ideas, the very essence of Ameri-
can independence, and to advocate the
contrary Is unworthy of the sons and
daughters of an American Republic.
We cherish the belief that sectional
ism Is, and Of right should he dead and
buried with the past. Our work is r
the present anu the future. In our
agricultural brotherhood aud its pur-
poses We shall recognize no North, no
South, no East, no West.
II is reserved by every Patron, as
the right of freeman, to affiliate with
any party that will carry out his prin-
ciples.
OUTSIDE COOPERATION.
6. Ours being eculiarly a farmers
institution, we cannot admit all To our
ranks. Many are excluded by the
nature Of The organization, not because
they are professional men or artisans,
or labOrers, but because they have not
sufficient direct interest in tilling Tie
soil, or may have some interest in CON
iiict with our purposes. But We appeal
to all good citizens for their cordial CO.
operation to assist in our efforts toward
reform, that we NAV eventually remove
from our midst tn, last vestige of
tyranny and corruption. We hail The
general desire for fraternal harmony,
equitable compromises, and earnest
cooperation, as AN omen of future
success.
CONCLUSION.
II shall be an abiding principle with
us to relieve any Of our oppressed and
suffering brotherhood by any means at
our command
Last, bat not least, we proclaim it
among our purposes to inculcate q
proper appreciation of the abilities and
sphere of woman, as is indicated by
admitting her to membership and posi-
ton in our Order.
ImplOring the continued assistance
of our Divine Master to guide us in our
work, we here pledge ourselves to
faithful and harmonious labor for all
future time; to return by our united
effort TO the wisdom, justice, fraternity
and political purity of our forefathers

Fate OF ornered wheat.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1.-The Even
ing bulletin says that the 200, 900 tons
of syndicate wheat" which has been
stored for two years in the warehouses
of the late James q. Fair at Port Costa,
has been placed on the market. The
wheat is of the crop of 1924. 1t Is
said that the Luning estate loaned
Fair slOO, 900 to corner the wheat and
that the Luning estate management,
nervous for fear that weevil might
damage its security, has pressed
the Fair estate to take up this
loan. The 1928 wheat cannot,
under the rules, be sold on change, so
the wheat will be advertised for buyers
generally. The wheat is estimated to
be worth 81. 500. 900. Whether sold or
not, getting so large quantity of
wheat out of port will be n problem.
Negotiations have been made for n
shipment of part of the wheat by rail
to New Orleans, thence to Liverpool.
II would require 5000 cars to move
half of the stored wheat To ship all
the wheat to Liverpool would take
seventy-five vessels.
