[Webster City Tribune.1


1t would be interesting to know just
what the average farmer thinks of the
city chaps who are eternally telling
them of what snaps they have upon
the farm. Here is Colonel Young, who
has spent the past forty years running
q newspaper and wrestling Cuba from
the Spanish yoke Of tyranny. winding
fragrant wreaths OF rhetorical gems
around the home life OF the Iowa far
mer. When one reads such glowing
accounts of the pleasures of farm life
and there are many pleasures-the 9TH
err picture sometimes crowds itself to
the fore. The annoyance of mudding
in" wheat crop during wet spring,
and the perplexity of seeing 1t wither
before the drouth laden winds of early
summer. Smoking the corn when the
mercury Is frozen In the bulb and the
frost laden zephyrs are whistling up
and down the spine. Feeding the stock
so cent corn and wondering where the
next bushel is coming from or watching
fine herd of hogs sink to the earth
from the cholera scourge. These are
some of the real pictures of farm life.
The picture is familiar to farmers, even
though they never see it in tho city
press.
CHANGE FORM OF GOVERNMENT.
[Vinton Eagle.1
The Eagle believes that one OF the
duties the coming legislature should
perform is a complete change In the
form of government Of the several
state educational institutions.
The present form is too cumbersome.
The state university is governed by a
board of eleven regents with the gov
ernor of the state and superintendent
of public instruction as ex-ofticio mems
bers. The agricultural college Is gov
erned In the same manner except the
officials are called trustees. The nor
NAL school Is governed by a board of
five trustees with the governor and
Superintendent as ex-officio members.
The Eagle believes that all these boards
should be composed of five members
and the governor and superinten
should be eliminated. The superinten-
dent as a useless appendage and the
governor for other and sufficient reas-
ons to be hereinafter given.
The trustees or regents or whatever
they may be called should be all APP
pointed at the same time and for a

The union and the private employs
may close private shops as they Will.
1t is their right. The government shops
must remain open for such Is the
right of the people who are the govern
ment. No society. church, class or
organization of whatever nature may
control the right and opportunity to
labor under the government. There
can be no kingsl1ip of unionism in this
country nor usurpation of powers that
belong to the state. Membership in a
labor union carries no special privi.-
eyes under the law where all men are
supposedly equal.
There Is suggestion of tyranny In
the demand of the federation which will
be resented by the mass of the people,
1t is a pity that the same wise judg-
ment that rejected socialism might not
have controlled thruout its de-
alterations. The strength Of I'M
ionism is built upon public
opinion and confidence. and pub
lie confidence is not to be gained and
kept by attempts to break down pub
lie rights and establish a class au-
tocracy. The federation was unfor-
tunate in strengthening the argument
OF Its enemies that unions are the
foes of equal opportunity. 1t will lose
instead Of gain by its action. The gov
eminent shops will remain open and II
will have succeeded only in establish
ing in the public mind well defined
fear that the object OF the organization
contemplates as much the subsection
OF others as the enfranchisement of
labor.

Home life on the farm is pleasanter
than ever before; the farmer has more
comforts than ever before in his life;
the young people on the farms have
more encouragement and better oppor-
tunities. also better times than they
ever had. Farm life is more attractive
and more profitable than it has ever
been since the discovery OF America.
The rosy checked boys and girls from
the farm are just as handsome as ever.
and there are plenty of them. The farm

acted wisely and unwisely at Its re-
cent session in Boston. It followed
precedent and common sense when il
rejected the proposition to tndorse 80
cialism. The vote on this question
leaves no doubt OF the attitude Of la
Dor unions toward socialism. 1t was
overwhelmingly against. OF 1903
votes the socialists cast 2.1Ss or q
proportion Of about one to five.
1t is not at all astonishing or unex-
pected that the federation should
turn away from system 30 directly
opposed to the principles OF trades un-
ionism and the genius OF American la
Dor. The wage system is the foundation
OF unionism the object OF which Is
to control the wage and hour scales.
In this 1t has been partially successful
and 10 confident OF further successes.
The present Industrial system Is good
enough for the unions II they may COM
mand the situation. The American
workman is not satisfied with the dead
levels Of socialism. He IL ambitious
socially. industrially ana even polite
cally. He has hopes Of advancement
ana Graves ownership and personal
power. The pride OF property and
privilege II nowhere more evident than
In the laborer grown well-to-do. The
worker who has saved to pay for one
home buys another piece" when the
Arst has been paid for. Usually such
men are not socialists. They are not rea-
dy TO vote down opportunity The aston
ishine thing In the federation vote Is
not that the proposition should have
been beaten Ave to one but that one
In five should have voted for, It.
The unwisdom of the federation's de-
alterations cropped out In It's stand
against the open shop" policy Of the
government. Sad to say this stand was
taken after deliberate discussion and
explanation. II was practically an as
sumption OF autocracy by the feder-
alton. It nullifled the declaration that
all men are created free and equal ana
substituted in effect that members OF
labor organizations alone are entitled
to equality under the law. Practically
the federation said calmly. calculatingly
and without heat THE federation OF
labor is the United States Of Amer
4ca.' This is the first time that re-
spectacle association has publicly
placed itself and its bylaws above the
constitution.
1t 10 incredible that the attitude as
sumed by the federation Ii that OF the
Individual citizen and member Of a
trades union. There are few OF the
rank and file who put loyalty to the
union above the fundamental American
principle OF equality Of opportunity
under the law. President Gompers
said to the meeting that socialism se
economically unsound, socially wrong
and industrially impossible. He might
have paraphrased his assertion to fit
the demand for union control OF gov
eminent industries by declaring 1t "a

ston ana an inpossibility In the face

WHEN THE HERRING RUN.
Yarmouth, she Center of the Indus-
try, Receives 5O,0Oo,OO0 Fish In
Days Catch.

One Of the most interesting seaports
of England is Yarmouth, perhaps the
chief fishing town of the Kingdom, and
certainly the great herring center. On
November IL the high water mark for
arrivals was registered, when 10000
600 of these fishes were landed on the
wifaryes of the port. This one days
catch sold for 1925, 900, SO il can he seen
that the fisher folk have an abundance
OF shilliHgs- at least, in the fishing sea-
son. On this day the feet spread for
Philadelphia Press.
1t is said that the herring season this
year has never been equaled. Certain
il Is that the twin towns OF Yarmouth
and Lowestoft present busy and ami
mated scene. The port at this time is
as much Scotch as English, for scores
OF the boats come from north OF the
Tweed The streets are full OF broad
shoulderd, ruddy-faced girls who APP
peared with the fleet. They are not
the least Of the picturesque sights, as,
stripped of superfluous clothing, bare
headed and bare-armed, they dress and
cure the fish.
These girls are mostly Scotch, and
have a peculiar dialect OF the Tweed
fisher folk. They are CHEEKY and sing
at their work, and are always ready for
fun when work is over. They are the
heroines or the objects ~ many stories
that never get into print. There are
probably 5000 Of these iassies in town,
and they are experts, for they follow
the fleet in it's migratory quest Like
gulls follow school Of fish.
When the fleet looms up in the har-
Dor the girls repair to the warehouses
and get ready for work. The girls
work IN crews OF three, two cutting
the fish with a small knife, which they
use with wonderful deftness, aud the
third packing the fish IN barrels or
salt. These girls receive their railway
fares and guarantee 81 $3.50 week.
