ascertained that the men were promin-

view of having him assigned to their
church.

Woodruff Farmers Club.

The September meeting of the Wood
hull Sciota Farmers club was held a
the home of A. s. Purdy. After 9
bountiful dinner the meeting was called
to order by the president.
Mr.. Gibbs opened the discussion on
the question, Should the arid lands OF
the west be irrigated at public expense
He said this seemed a poor time to dis
cuss irrigation, when we had such a
flood as at present There are vast
areas in the west that could be made
fertile if they could be irrigated In
Utah and New Mexico irrigation has
been successful. 1t is very expensive to
irrigate extensively and private enter
prise cannot do it. Whether the u. S.
government should do it is another
question. The land is made very pro-
ductive by irrigation and ten acres in
Utah will support large family and
furnish them work, where the land is
irrigated. At some future time it may
be necessary for the government to take
charge of irrigation extensively to pro-
vide for our increasing population.
Mr.. Headley thought it would benefit
syndicates more than private indivi-
duals. Mr.. Child agreed with Mr..
Headley and said it would be better to
prevent so many foreigners from com
ing here than to try and provide homes
for them Mr.. Gibbs is opposed to I'M
desirable immigrants, but thinks we
must provide for what we have and this
would be the easiest way. After the
government has built irrigation works
it surely would be able to protect them,
and secure the benefit to those for whom
it was intended.
Mr.. Tucker and w. w. Berry made
a few remarks on the subject of farmers
and spoke of the nation
al society of Equity as something that
will meet the farmers needs
Have our clubs accomplished ANYTHING
along political lines? H. Purdy: Per-
haps not, as yet, but if we perserve and
work together we shall see good results.
Clubs, county and state organizations
should all continue to work for primary
election laws. If our representatives do
not redeem their pledges, they should
never be reelected.
Select readings were, given by Mrs
Lake, Mrs. Huffman and Mr.. Corcoran.
The question box contained the follow |
ng: Can all children be governed |
alike? Can a non resident be COMPEL J

lone of Mr.. and Mrs. Warren, Oct. Is.

Elk Secretary Long on General AIeer.

In the chapter of his book, "The New
American Navy" published by The
Outlook Company there is chapter of
personal reminiscence:-wh by the
way, appears in its serial form in 7 he
0utlooks Magazine Number for Octo-
Der In it Mr.. Long pays this tribute
to General Alger
General Alger was secretary of war,
as kind and generous heart as ever
beat. There never was meaner con-
spiracy (for it seemed to be hardly any =
thing else) than what proved on the
resulting investigation to be baseless
attempt to discredit him with regard to
the supplies furnished to soldiers during
the Spanish war If there were one
man who would have given all he had
30 make soldiers lot happier it was
Alger. / used to think him a little
sanguine, as when, as early ais the latter
part of March, 1898, the President used
20 turn to him and say, General, how
soon can you put an army into Cuba2"
and he would reply, II can put forty
thousand men there in ten days. A
little nonsense now and then is relished
by the wisest men, and there was a
kindly laughter in his eye as he joked
Secretary Wilson about his gray trous-
BITS, or referred to my battered silk hat,
which he over and over again promised
to replace with new one, but has, I'M
for me, failed to do up to
the present moment.

OWOSSO. FRIDAY, OCT. 2, 1908.
The republicans of Colorado at their
State convention this week adopted the
following resolution by acclamation and
amid the greatest enthusiasm: 1--WE
cannot meet without sending our greet
ing to Theodore Roosevelt, president of
the United States, and we approve with
pride his splendid administration, his
high and patriotic purposes, and renew
our devotion to the principles which he
represents and which he has so patriotic
ally exemplified in the splendid admin
istration which he has given to the
whole country, and we particularly APP
prove and commend his respect and de-
yotion to law and order, the effort he
has made to bring all persons, rich and
poor alike, in obedience to it and with
in its protection and power"
1t would seem as though the most
radical trades unionists must admit
that President Roosevelt is absolutely
right in the position he has taken in the
Miller case. There was no other course
to pursue. His reasons as stated to
number of the leaders of the labor in
terests at conference this week at the
White House are given herewith:
II thank you and your committee for
your courtesy, and l appreciate the OPP
portunity to meet with you. 1t will al
ways be pleasure to see you or any
representatives of your organization or
of your federation as a whole.
AS regards the Miller case I have
little to add to what l have al
ready said. In dealing with it ask
you to remember that l am dealing
purely with the relation of the govern
ment to its employees. l must govern
my action by the laws of the land,
which am sworn to administer, and
which differentiate any case in which
the government of the United States is
a party from all other cases whatsoever.
These laws are enacted for the benefit
Of the whole people, and cannot and
must not be construed as permitting
discrimination against some of the peo-
pie.
I am President of all the people of the
United States, without regard to creed,
color, birthplace occupation, or social
conditions Ny aim is to do equal and
exact justice as among them all.
In the employment and dismissal of
men in the government service can no
more recognize the fact that man does
or does not belong to union, as being
for or against him, then can recognize
the fact that he is a protestant or a
Catholic, Jew or Gentle, as being
for or against him.
In the communications sent me by |
various labor organizations protesting
against the retention of Miller in the |
government printing Office the grounds
alleged are twofold:
4. That he is a nonunion man.
2. That he is not personally fit.
The question of his personal fitness is
one to be settled in the routine of ad-
detail, and cannot be al
lowed to conflict with or to complicate
the larger question of governmental dis
for or against him, or any
other man, because he is or is not a
member of union. That is the only
question now before me for decision;
and as to this, my decision is final"

CARLYLE would have called your 'lllas Hoi-

seriously to threaten all the industries OF the
kingdom and the very political integrity anu
indenendence of the kingdom itself
We'll. the Dutch know how to manage such
things They are people Of placid temper anu

,,ronon+lz enacted that law as a vindication OF
tha right of the majority to rule When the
legislature passed clause after clause OF the
anti-strike law by overwhelming majoriues. the
strikers discreetly judged it was time TO quit
and they quilted.
ON the whole the episode is one that reflects
great credit upon the Dutch and their govern
ment. and that should set a valuable example
10 other countries. It is true that Holland is
monarchy and that the sovereign does not have
TO look out for votes. It is equally true that
the legislature, which has been enacttng THIS
anti-strike bill. is popular and representative
body. elected by the votes of the people. we
must conclude then. either that the people ap-
nroye the aptistrike legislation that the legiS-
Iators of Holland are not afraid of losing votes
in doing right Either theory is entirely credit
able to the Dutch, and we are inclined to sus-
pect that both Of them are true

AN INSULTING PROPOSAL.

IT is tulpossible TO take seriously the discus
sion Of Mr. Grout as possible Tammany can
6idate for Mayor, which is being vigorously
carried on By some people. However much
Tam.nany might like TO use Mr.. Grout and his
reputation as an able official, Mr.. Grout could
not for an instant think Of selling himself TO
srch a body OF public enemies. Mr. Grout is
. reforner who has enlisted for the war against
craft and bad government of all kinds, and we
are sure they DO him great wrong who thlnk
that he would turn back
II is true that Mr.. Grout once held Office
7rrser Tamuaany and ran for Mayor Of Brooklyn
as the representative OF the Mclaughlin ring
That however was before he had Differentiated
national party loyalty from obedience In munic-
snsl matters TO a local machine Like great
MANY other men, he was a regular partisan and
probably did not realize the iniquity done py
those he was supporting. But as Borough Tres
fdeut he had experience He learned What
Tau1uany meant and revolted from IT. de DID

euch ss would allow his friends to expect tnat
ne would go back 10 support 1t with proper can

ord He made q campaign on the Issue OF
