The monopolists try to defend trusts
by claiming that they are identical in
principle with the labor organization.
There is this difference, however be-
tween the two kinds of organization
which ought to be apparent to every
one. Labor organizations have not yet
secured for their members more than a
fair compensation for work dons-and
in many branches of industry they have
not secured what is fair, while many of
the trust magnates have within the
past few years amassed fabulous for
tunes. When labor organizations reach
the point where'the wAse earnefs are
able to spend their summers In the
north, their winters dn the south and
the autumn months In Europe, it will
be time enough to class such organiza.
tions with the trusts. s.-The Commoner.

To Overcome the Effects of Drought.
From Up-to- Date Farming.
Farmers in old sections of the coun-
try notice that droughts affect their
crops more than they did in former
years, and naturally conclude that the
droughts are more severe and longer
continued. AS to the correctness of
the claim that the droughts are more
severe now We will not attempt 20
decide, as we have not the statistics be-
fore us. We will, however, assert that
this trouble from drought as it utfects
tho farmer is one of common nccur
renee, that few have tried to solve but
jumped at the conclusion that the dry
weather was entirely responsible.
Virgin or new soil withstands drought
better than old soil. Why? Because
OF the humus in that soil resulting
from the crops of grass, weeds, ETC.,
growing up year after year and then de-
caying. Inc old farming sections CONNER
cialfertilizers are largely depended upon
for keeping up the fertility, but they do
not supply the humus 30 necessary to
keep the correct mechanical condition
in the soil and act as sponge TO hold
moisture during droughts.
The thing needful is to make and use
all the barnyard manure possible, and
supplement this with all the crops you
can possibly grow to die down on the
ground or turn under. There are plenty
of them now, and the farmer who does
not avail himself of them fails woe.
fully in living up to his opportunities
We mention some of the greatest
friends of the farmer in this respect
Medium, mammoth, alsyke and alfalfa
clover, cowpeas, soy beans and rape.
| Too much emphasis cannot be placed
upon the Importance of these crops st
reviewers of coil for all crops. The
more intensive your farming operations
are to be, the greater reliance must Ii
placed upon the above cheap pasture
hay humus and fertilizer crops.

Eat percentage IN milk.

The farmers who supply milk 10
creameries are usually paid in pro-
portion to the butter fat in the milk.
According to this plan COW that
gives less milk than another may be
the more profitable because her milk
contains larger percentage of butter
fat, but the COW that yields mlk largely
also gives profit IN the milk, which is
used for fesdng pigs. The dairyman
who sells to the creamery is therefore
interested in the breeds that give rich
milk, and it will pay him to raise his
calves from select breed, in order to
bring his herd up to tho highest
standard of efficiency.

Boss Quay owns Pennsylvania He is
a whole sink of corruption and a Re-
publican. These two terms are not nee
essarily synonymous. A great many Re-
publicans are very respectable indeed.
The old saying about "birds of a feath-
err is quite unreliable in politics. But
Quay is record breaker. He tried to
get into the senate last year and made
a miserable failure of it, but he wasn't
a bit discouraged. He doesn't get that
way. He is persistent and all pervading
like certain odors. He went to work at
once to get reelected and this is what
the Dispatch says in q recent issue:
Mr.. Quay's caucus assures him of 1923
votes for senator with t27 needed. Four
Democrats are said to be slated to make
UP the required number and then that
sanity organ delivers itself of whole
homfly on the general compatibility of
Democrats, their itching palm and raven
ing bowel as contrasted with the ire
proachable manner in which Republican
1SSlolehlOES draw lIlelf immaculate DaJan1-
as, or rather togas, around them The
statement is. however, a little bit pe-
culiar. Quay expects to get the votes of
four Democratic Legislators but he has
l2S legislators pledged already. Who
and what are those mysterious 123? Are
they straw men or just common graft
ers? Is it case of love. or slush fund?
They don't appear to be Democrats and
they certainly can't be Republicans, fer
that would mean nearlyd all the Repub-
lican legislators in the State and it isn't
possible that they would pledge Them
selves almost to a man in behalf of such
a rotten old carcass, as Boss Quay, But
the fact remains that Quay found only
four seurvy grafters among the Demo-
cratic legislators of Pennsylvania as
against 12S on the other side; and that is
a mighty credftable showing for Democ-
racy.

A FATAL SPOT.

The revolving incident, the details of
which are contained in the current dis
patches from Marietta. o., carries more
than one lesson of great public impor-
lance with it,
The disposition of the mob in that case
to apply the penalty of lynch law shows
among other things that that form of
punishment in such cases is not reserved
for negro criminals, and that it is not
confined in operation to any particular
section of the country.
There are no more peaceful. Iaw-abiding
or conservative communities in the Unit
ed States than those of the state Of
Ohio. The fact that such a crime is pos
sible of commission in that section and
even within the limits of an important
city is a very unpleasant reflection. Yet it
may not imply more than that the savage
in the heart of man will show its free
dom from subsection from time to time
in spite of all the restraints which So
ciety furnishes.
Tt is the fact that in such community
as Marietta, o., it is possible under any
condition of public excitement, however
I serious. to transform the male residents
into pack of wild animals, and to
throw down all the barriers which divide
civilized society from the condition Of
savagery, is the circumstance which
ought to give every thoughtful man pain
and anxiety for the future.
This is not the only instance of the
kind. We have had a succession OF them
in Ohio, Indiana and elsewhere in the
East and West, as we'll as in the South,
in the treatment of whites as we'll as
blacks. We vary the operation by max
ing the stake take fhe place of the rope;
but there is no community evidently in
America which is beyond indulging itself
in what we call with a truly savage hu-
NOR, necktie party.
To those who are familiar with social
conditions in communities like New York
city, especially in sections such as that
in which the recent anti-negro riots took
| place, there is no surprise involved at
such outbreaks. Society has created and
maintains in such places all the condi-
lions necessary to Transforming human
beings into wild beasts. Nothing short
of the strong, mailed arm of the law
can be expected to keep people living I'M
der such conditions in order. But that
in communities, the basis of whose ex-
istence has been laid in the beliefs and
traditions of American Puritanism, In
which social conditions Work toward the
uplifting of man, and where the ineite-
ments to crime and disorder which are
peculiar to our crowded cities are alb
sent, such exhibitions of disregard of
law and of animal lust of blood and riot
should be possible is indeed most por-
tentous circumstance.
