poleOn said you must "either keep the
people working or fighting" The
trusts, combines and the sCoundrels
who are in possession of the govern
mental machine are determined that
the people shall not work. They are
determined that there must be a large
contingent Of unemployed in order to
keep wages down. They are deter
mined that the governmental machine
must not turn out the necessary tool
money to set the workers at the work
which is everywhere needing to be
done; that would make the workers In.
dependent Of the money bosses and de-
crease the bosses dividends. So in
lieu Of civilizing, Christianizing aOork
we are given dehumanizlng aO0r. Long
live our American NspOleons.

Hope of Getting 26 Cents.
LAWRENCE, Kan, Aug. 26.-As a re-
suit of a meeting of the potato growers
of Kansas and Missouri held in Law
renee yesterday, it is believed by grow
ers that the price Of potatoes will go
up shortly. The meeting was attended
by about 40 growers, representing thou
sands of acres Of the prod uct, the most
of it being in Kansas along the Kaw. 1t
was decided to ask the railroads for an
extension of the low rate to Texas
for the next 80 days, so that growers
would have time to dig their potatoes
1t was also agreed to request all grow
ers in the Kaw valley region to hold
their crop for 30 days for 25 cents
bushel, contingent upon getting the
