In Accord.

The emperor of Germany is pay
ing his respects to England by a
personal visit. This visit to Eng
land at this time is significant. In
her war with the Transvaal Great
Britain is receiving from the press
of Europe no comfort. 1t is EVIL
dent that the sympathies of the peo-
pie of most countries are with the
Beers. and the hope is freely ex-
pressed that Great Britain will fail
in this war.
The meaning of this sentiment is
apparent. 1t is largely the express
sion of a feeling of jealousy and APP
prehension. The French people are
especially outspoken in their exulta-
ton at any victory of the Beers and
are manifesting, in many ways,
their enmity to England. Russia,
Italy and Spain are DESTROYS that
Great Britain should be Inundated.
The emperor of Germany, by this
visit to England gives notice to the
powers where he is at. 1t means
Just this; England, Germany and
America are in accord. The ques-
ton suggested to the rest OF the
| world is: "What are you going to do
about it?" What the world may
| attempt to do about it doesn't mat
ter. While these three most civiliz-
| ed nations are in accord the world is
not permitted to go backward. The
sentiment of America, England and
Germany is in agreement upon all
great questions, questions that affect
the best interests of men. We need
| no written treaties of alliance or Of
arbitration. These would be worth.
less without that common sentiment
of similarity of interests and friend
lly feeling. That feeling OF a nearer
| kinship unites us. And as sgainst
| the less civilized nations of the earth
| it will find expression. This accord
| does not mean war against any ma
ton. 1t is the most potent factor tc
prevent war. 1t is simply an an
nouncement in this crisis of Eng
| land for other nations to observe the
| old motto: "Hands OFF,

CltYClerk.

Wheat produces from 100 to 1870
bushels to the acre in Belgium, but 3
acres is an exceptionally large field to
plant-for wheat is planted there,
rather than sown. The ground is
carefully prepared by several plow-
ings. A plat a few rods square is
sown thickly in September for the
spring planting. In the spring the
ground to be planted to wheat, is
marked off in to deep burrows 10
inches apart and deep. Into this the
wheat plants are planted 4 inches
apart. This is cultivated and hoed as
we do garden crops. A plant of wheat
stools to 40 spears.

Agriculture Wilson said in Reno the
other day about giving the govern

rotary said: Gentlemen, don't
run away with the idea that the
government is going to give you the
land, for it will not. Congress is
too much afraid of your syndicates
getting hold of it for speculative
purposes, but | would favor some
arrangement whereby the govern

States the rental from them. The

In the town of Paramount, near
Cincinnati, the citizens are now ex-
periencing a taste of the good things
which the great system of trusts has
in store for people everywhere. At
Paramount there has been in steady
operation for twenty years barbed
wire fence factory employing some
500 men. This factory having now
fallen under the control of the steel
trust now closes down. The trust
acquired it for that purpose. The
shut down was not occasioned by
an over-supply of barbed wire fenc-
ing; it was ordered with the inten-
ton OF creating an under supply.
Of course the 500 employees have
been thrown out of work, and some
of them who voted, either willingly
or under coercion, for the advance
agent of prosperity" two years and
a half ago, are doubtless wondering
whether closing the minis really
has any virtues in the direction of
opening the mills. The disemploy-
ment of these 500 men at Paramount
is chiefly notable because it hap
pens to be concentrated in its effects.
There is nothing else peculiar about
it. In a more scattered way the
same thing is going on all over the
country. Under the trust regime
not only mechanics, but clerks,
book keepers, salesman and small
business men are being crowded in
to the lists of the unemployed. Yet

WHEN Dreyfus was brought back

have fair deal. Since his trial
began it appears that the French
men do not know what a fair trial
is. The court is trying to make
Dreyfus prove his innocence of the
charge he is accused of while in all
law the accused should be consider
ed innocent until he is proven
guilty. The burden of proof is
being thrust upon the defense when
it should rest on the prosecution.
Dreyfus' attorneys will have an in

tistics showing that the average per

United States are 1926 per annum,
