Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1908-01-22

Congressman c.. A. Davis of Min
nesota is making big fight for his
bill providing for secondary educa-
ton in agriculture by means of
agricultural high schools and agri-
cultural experiment stations. His
bill provides for an appropriation
of ten cents per capita of the pop
ulation of each state and territory,
to be used only for instruction, the
states and territories availing them
selves of the act to furnish the nee
essary lands and buildings. The
bill also carries an appropriation Of
So 500 for each experiment station
in connection with the agricultural
state high schools. Mr.. Davis made
such fight for this bill at the close
of the last session that Uncle Joe
Cannon, who, it seems, is opposed
to these appropriations, is said to
have kept him off the committee in
which he could do the best work
for his bill. The congressman is
using every available means to stir
up public sentiment in favor of his
bill and it remains to be seen how
much pressure he can secure from
the country districts in favor of his
measure.

Do you know how much it costs
when state goes dry? Take Geor-
gia. On Jan. LIST every saloon in
Georgia was closed. Thousands of
people had to find new employment
or motive outside the state. Every
distillery closed. Every wholesale
liquor house closed. Georgia says
it's worth it. Every now and then
somebody comes along and says you
can't trust the people. Ideals have
no place at the ballot box, they as
sert. You can never hope to make
the great mass of the people think.
This (the action IF Georgia. is the
sort of thing which proves the folly
Of such pessimism. The People do

Though they may seem immense,

Would look like fifteen cents.
How did you ever come to choose
That gross and greasy thing.
When, as lad, you might have had
The spirits on the string.
And profitable spirits, too
Far, far exceeding oil,
Which after all brought you but small
Returns for all your toll.

If you had touched it, John.
And yet you say that you are glad!
