THE DEMAND FOR FARM HANDS.
SOUND POLITICAL ECONOMY.


In the course of his address in Lin
coin yesterday before the Young Mems
Republican club Governor Cummins
went to the heart of the tariff problem
from the standpoint of the progressive
and patriotic republican when he said:
Il am profound believer in the sys-
TEN of tariff duties, but consumers
have better right TO competition than
producers have to protection, therefore,
IL congress finds that any manufac-
turer has destroyed the competition
of our own country and that the mon
opoly is likely to be continued. 1t
should, and / believe 1t win, with
draw from the monopolized products
the protection hitherto accorded them"
That short paragraph contains
enough sound economy upon which to
found a successful party, and any
party that adopts it as guide in
dealing with the protective tariff will
serve both itself and the country.

MOTHER KIND OF CONGRESSMAN

Horace Mann has written several
letters to persons in this neighborhood
containing information regarding his
movements in Washington. 1t appears
that. he is not in the national capital
for his health. Some idea of his plans
may be gathered from his statement:
Il am here to introduce some measures
in congress which I am confident
would be adopted If submitted to pop
ular vote, and 1t is my intention to
make the congressional election prac-
tically amount to a referendum" Mr..
Mann goes on to inquire what in want
ed in the way of legislation out here,
and in conclusion he breaks 1t gently:
Il propose to represent the district,
whether the people elect me or not"
Without waiting to learn the wishes of
his constituents of the Tenth district
by means of referendum or other
wise he is advocating the Winetka sys
tenn when he catches the speakers eye
BY this system, he says. ut is possible
to secure and expression of the popular
will" The Courier has fastened to
send to Horace list of the things II
wants done. which does not include
the passing of referendum law by his

The governors salary ought to be
increased. We have always favored
increase. feeling that the present al
lowance, s4,100 a year, practically bars
a poor man from holding the office
1t should not be less than $1,000 yeag
and this legislature ought not to put
off the matter. Most of the salary is
spent to maintain the dignity of the
Office and the state ought to bear the
burden.
THE DEMAND FOR FARM HANDS.
lOgden Reporter.l
There are idle men in some of the
cities and towns of Iowa this winter.
but farmers report that it is an impos-
sibility to get farm laborers, notwith-
standing they are willing TO pay $50 to
$25 per month for men who are COM
petent for farm work and willing to
labor. 1t is true, too, that there Is
more profit in farm labor than is made
by day labor in the towns and cities.

KENToN, July 15.-The rainy spell
has broken and fields of wheat are be-
ing rapidly threshed. 1t was feared
for time that the farmers would have
the same trouble to contend with that
they had at this season last year, when
so much wheat was ruined by the wet
weather.
Last Saturday afternoon an accident
occurred on the farm of Mr.. S. NJ.
Taylor, tenanted by Mr.. Henry Will
liams, that would have proved very
serious but for the united efforts of
those present. During the threshing
spark of fire from tbs engine ignited
load OF wheat and burned it COM
pletely before the fire could be extin-
guished. The wagon, however, was
saved.
The community was saddened last
week to learn of the death of Mr.. Ben
lamin Masten, residing about three
miles from Kenton. he had been in
bad health for over a year as a result
of case of la grippe, and his death
was due to a complication of diseases.
Mr.. Masten had been a consistent
member of Central M. E. Church fol
over thirty years. The family hav,
the sympathy Of a large circle O
friends, as was shown by his funeral
held last Sunday afternoon, which wa
the largest in the history Of the com
munity. He was in his fifty-nintI
year and leaves widow and six child
rem tomourn the loss of husband ano
father. But what is their loss is hi
eternal gain.
Mr.. Frank Greenwell, Sr., wa
thrown out of his wagon few day
ago, struck his head and was uncon
scious for time, but has now recoy
cred from the shock.
Kenton M. e. Church having bee
closed the past few weeks for repairs
will be reopened Sunday, July 9th.

WHAT WILL CONGRESSMAN BALL DO2
Wilmington Sun Makes Some Pertinent Sug'
gestlOus Regarding the Ticket.

gestiOus Regarding the ticket.
UNDER the caption: ''What Will
Ball Do?" the Wilmington Sun makes
some timely suggestions to the Will
mington E'Uening Journal relative to
the making of Republican ticket for
the coming election. Says the Sun :
"The Union Republicans have said
what they will do. They have propos
ed reunion of the Republican voters
in one party organization upon the on
ly reasonable and just basis of agree
ment. 1t is important in discussing
and forming Judgment upon this ques-
tion to remember just what the situa-
tion is. First, it must be said that the
little faction of Federal ofice-holders,
want to be office holders, and incor-
rlgible boilers who are at present mas
querading as a political party under
the leadership of DIR. L. H. Ball, have
rejected the Union Republican pro-
position for Republican party unity,
and have thus declared that they are
unwilling that the Republican ticket
for which they will vote should be
selected by full and majority vote of
the Republicans of the various coun-
ties of the State.
'The Union Republican proposition
is for Republican State convention
to consist of delegates apportioned to
the various districts as they were prior
to the bolt from the party in 1896.
That is the apportionment that the
boilers have maintained in their bolter
organization, in their alleged party
rules. They charged unfairness in
the apportionment made at the con-
vention of 1896, and made that charge
the excuse for refusing to join the
body of Republican voters in the con-
ventions of 1898 and 1900. The Union
Republicans offer to join in common
convention primary, the delegates to
be elected by majority vote in the
various election districts, and to be
apportioned under the boilers own
party (?) rules--to meet them upon
their own grounds and abide honestly
by the result of the voting. That is 9
more than fair proposition. 1t is gen.
erous. It is polite. 1t is Republi
can. If, as the boilers affect to be-
lieve, DIR. Ball and his friends represen
majority of the Republican voters, il
puts the control of the convention il
their hands. That is the proposition
made to and rejected by the bolte
State committee of which DR.. Ball is
member. 1t is alleged by and for DIR
Ball that he is working to unite thu
Republican voters in one party an'
secure the making of a ticket accep
table to, and supported by all the Re
publicans of the State. 1t is, there
fore, up to DIR. Ball, the official hea'
Of the bolter organization, to either &C
cept or finally reject, in his allege
> effort to ''unite the party" Republica
unity under the rules of his own OF
gauization. What will DIR. Ball do. "

The movement on foot to establish a
military organization has proven ex-
ceedingly popular among the young
men of Dover and with thirty-four
names on the petition the first official
move was made when the same was
placed in the hands of Col. Theodore
Townsend of the First Delaware Regi-
ment. As soon as certain necessary
red tape formalities are gone through
with, the company will be mustered in
as a part of the regiment. This will
give Dover a crack company and will
establish what should have been in
Dover several years back. All are now
assured that the movement will be a
complete success. Besides meeting
with great popularity with the young
men, the movement has met with favor
from our towns people as a whole
The movement will place Dover, thl
capital Of the State, in its proper place
in national guard service Of the State
and will increase its reputation in mill
tary affairs. Nothing but the mos
generous criticism has been accorde'

cd by all Dover Inder.
