THE MAN BEHIND THE FLOW.
He Is the Prime, Essential Man the
 World Needs


 There are but few things in this world that are so attractive, so sub- stantially needed, so universally de- ended upon, so unreservedly discrimi mated against, as the man behind the blow"
 The man behind the blow" has for | several years in the past played but a small part in the affairs of State, po- i litically, financially or scientifically, so far as his laying plans and carrying them out are concerned.
 We have reached the day, however, when "the man behind the blow" IS going to have something to say. He is going to be heard, and he had better be needed The people who will con- tinue their efforts to press him will no doubt be wiped off the face of the earth for he is in no condition or tenn per to be trifled with any longer. He is not unreasonable in his demands. He is not over-exacting in his Obliga- tions, but he is determined and un- finching when he is once aroused to the point where he will battle for his rights, and to that point he has been aroused in the last three years.
 The man behind the blow" is, has been, and will ever be "the staff of our nations life" Without him our coun- try would be weak, insignificant, poor and unexpected, but with him we are powerful, we are rich, we are honOred, we are strong. Then why should not the man behind the blow" have a voice? Why should he not command and be obeyed? Why should be not say Go, and the balance of our people go? Why should he not say Come, and the classes of our nation come? Again we ask why, and we call on the world to answer why the farmers should not be the most respected, the most intelligent and the most com manding people of our nation?
 We do not want to pat the farmer on the back, or boost him, but we simply want to express facts, and just here we want to say that if the farmer does not occupy the place to which he is en- titled, he has nobody to blame but himself. If he is willing to sit idly by and see others usurp the authority and powers that belong to him, and grind the very life blood out of his wife and children, certainly he can look upon himself as nothing eise but sorry knave-Union News

That Land Problem Grows.

Many of those coming here now are as the Stockman-Journal would say investors and speculators.' These men, many of them, have made it their business for years to find out what the farmers want in the way of land. From a long experience in such matters they have become excellent judges of a country and it's possibilities. They know a good thing when they see it, and, having found it, get in on tn ground floor. This is just what has been done on the Texas plains. Today these people own the bulk Ot our vast fertile prairies.-Canyon City News.
 And still the local papers continue to tell an anxious public what fine thing it is to buy contiguous lands as an investment" knowing that lands must pay taxes and the money invest ed in them demands interest, and that the absentee landlord does nothing on earth for the community in which he holds lands. Columns on columns Of space is used begging men to rush in and take advantage of their brothers and compel those who come later to pay heavy tribute to the wise invest or" Humanity demands a change in the system that allows one man to force the homeseeker to pay an un- earned tribute.

MISS BESSIE FARRELL 1911 Ihira WI Ave. Brooklyn, N. Y., IS Presl- dent of the Young Peoples Christian Temperance Association. She writes:
 "Peruna is certainly a valuable nerve and blood remedy, calculated to build up the broken-down health of rn-out women. I have found by personal ex- perience that it acts as wonderful re- storer of lost strength, assisting the stomach to assimilate and digest the food, and building up worn-out tissues. In my work 1 have had occasion to recommend it freely, especially to women.
 q know of nothing which is better to build up the strength of a young mother, in fact, all the ailments peculiar to women, so am pleased to give 1t my hearty endorsement.
 Dr. Hartman has prescribed Peruna for many thousand women, and he never fails to receive multitude or letters like the above, thanking him for the wonderful benefits received.

Tn Demand,

'T hear you have a new automobile, old man." said the motor-car fiend. What does it look like?"
 Well, to tell you the truth replied the amateur motorist, "it is as ugly as a steam roller, makes as much noise as traction engine, knocks over as many people as a freight en- zine and raises as much dust as a street sweeping machine.
 The motor-car fiend was wild with enthusiasm.
 You don't say!" he blurted eagerly. "Tell me where I can buy the same make and I'll give you my old machine as a present"

It's a TarnaI Shame!

And there's our boys our there in the cold of winter, who have raised enough cotton this season to clolhe a hundred people comfOrtably--ye they have not decent clothes to wear, tDeir feet are on the ground. and our old, broken-down school house is too un- comfortable for them to sit il i'll the winter, and the roads are so bad, too! Did you say, What about the summer? Well, our boys will have to help ls plow then, and they can't go to ~chool; besides, what's the use? Our O)yS and girls ought not to have any schooling; it gets that fool idea into their heads that they are as good as the boys and girls of the towns. They are better off here working to help keep ill debt Gn cotton raising and corn buying
 They say that since tho Union start ed to making us folks get that fool mo- tion that we were somebody, that we have gone like a set of bowling apes and brought on a panic, and that we should be ashamed of ourselves for this. Several poor spectators who have been accustomed to the very best of everything had to % to the wall be- cause we sat still and wouldn't sell our cotton: but we notice that nOtWith- standing they say they lost everything, their children are still going to the best schools, they still hang to their organizations and keep supporting their papers. You see, it's all right for them to do this, for they know how; and then it's wrong to even think of any of them ever disgracing them selves with a little work. The skin would rub off their pretty, delicate hands, and their friends would no longer be friends to them.-F. U. Guide.

Money Coming Fast.

Never a day passes now but that the state treasurer receives anywhere from a few hundred to a thousand or more dollars from the various insur- ance companies that operate in Ar About $1 300 was paid in Thursday All of the money from that source goes into the general revenue fund, which has been decidedly low for the past several months.

Fund Still Increasing.

A total of s1S,S09.65 was paid into the treasury of the general revenue fund Monday, thereby swelling that fund from $4S,0O0, which is possessed Saturday night, to $66,SO9. The money paid in came from two sources, ln- surance tax and liquor license. The largest amount was paid into the treas ury by Sebastian county, Whlch brought in the sum of $13,500 derIFsd from liquor licenses. A total of S5, 309,65 was paid into the treasury by insurance companies for taxes. Tenn porarily at least the general revenue fund is safe. Still more money is due from various counties for liquor license and various insurance com panies. At that, however, the pros porous condition of the fund Is not expected to be long-lived, as it's ex- penses are unusually heavy.

When one takes into consideration the vast values produced by the farm CTS, and realizes that all this is mar keted and sold without the semblance of a system, and at a loss in many ways reaching into large percentage of the value of the products, then it be- gins to dawn upon him why the Farm t1 S Union is in existence. Great as these losses are, they are no greater than the losses from unsystematic farming, slipshod planning and lack of concert in planting, raising and har- vesting. There are plenty of things for the Union to do.
