Some interesting correspondence
has been going on between A. M.
Stevenson and Chairman Farley of
the republican state central commit
tee. Stevenson says the executive
officials of the state central commit
tee must be changed il the party is
going to win. That may be his
Judgment, but he can't announce it
as fact, and the judgment Of others
may be different. Three campaigns
have been won with this committee
in charge, and while Mr. Stevenson
was in charge the campaigns were
lost; SO the burden of proof would
appear to be on him.
However that may be, it is not the
crucial point. The question is, if
Mr.. Stevenson and his friends do
not succeed in getting the people
they want in the executive commit
tee, will they support the ticket 10y
ally, or will they get out and knife
its Never mind about past knifings
and double crossings" What's
the use of keeping up old qusrrels ?
Whoever gets control Of the state
committee or the executive commit
tee, the thing for all republicans to
do is to turn in and support the tick
ct after it is nominated. Better
party discipline in this state would
conduce to stability and peace and
better public service.-Ex.

The best all around crop on any

is said to be on the G. b. McNerney
place farmed by Will Tracy.
The banner wheat field is now be-
ing harvested by O.. Paulson. 1t is
SO rank and heavy that it can scarce
ly be elevated and bound by ordin-
ary methods.
The larger part of the wheat will
go into schock this week.
One OF our young men could not
get away from the farm to celebrate
the fourth but took an hour during
the day to shoot of some giant
crackers and other noise producing
devices. He called up several neigh
bors over the phone to listen to his
racket and it seemed to be satisfy

those celebrating with him. RIO.

Now is the time when the rspubli-
can chairman Of the appropriations
committee tells us that while the
csngress appropriated lot of money
It wasn't near so much ss it seems,
and was really less in proportion than
some other congresses appropriated ;
and the democratic ranking member
of the committee tells us that there
has been great extravaganza, and q
deficit is staring US in the face. Both
can prove ii by figures too-if you
only have enough figures. and know
how to manipulate them, you can
Prove almost anything. The same
performance occurs every session
after the passage of the appropris
ton bills. What the democrats call
