1892 he became assistant secretary, but in
1895 he had a difference of opinion with
the other officers and resigned on a ques-
ton Of principle and went back to work in
a machine shop. In 1897, however, his
comrades called him back to their service
as general secretary and he has held that
post ever since.
Mr.. Burns was elected to Parliament for
one of the Glasgow divisions at the last
general election, and there is no man whose
opinion carries more weight in the coun-
ellis Of the labor party.
He is a man of rather less than middle
height with a quiet, thoughtful face, and
he Is the very antithesis of the popular
conception of the agitator. AS a matter
of fact, his work is done more in the
office and the committee room than on the
platform. although when occasion requires,
he can be a forceful speaker. His strong
point is statistics. He has all the figures

CALL FOR THE BEST OF CORN
National Corn Show Impressed on the
Farmers Mind.
DOUGLAS COUNTY CORN GROWERS
Large sums of Cash offered to Pro-
mote Healthy Competition and
TO Secure Best of Exhibits
Mt show.

A meeting was called by the Nebraska
State commission to convene at Lincoln
April 2, 1908, at which eighteen counties
we're represented by one delegate from
each county. The object of the meeting
was to get the best ideas and formulate
plans by which the different counties in
the state were to be organized to get the
best results for the National Corn Elk
position at Omaha December 8 to 49, 1905.
Soon after the Lincoln meeting a call
was sent out by the Douglas County Agri-
cultural society for a mass convention Of
farmers TO meet at Benson, to organize a
Douglas county corn growers association.
The meeting was held April IL, 1905, and re
suited in the organization of an associa-
ton and the election of officers as fol-
lows: Charles Grau, Bennington, presi-
dent; william Pamp, Benson, secretary,
and Joseph Mcclure, Benson, treasurer.
At his meeting a paid-up membership Of
twenty-five was secured.
The board Of managers Of the Douglas
County Agricultural society at one of its
meetings adopted a resolution setting aside
$50 to be used as a special premium fund
in addition to its regular premium list
classification for corn. All of which will
be shown at the Douglas COUNTY fair dur
ing the Ak-Sar-Ben carnival, September
% TO October 4, 1903. All the best exhibits
that score above seventy points will be re-
served for the National Corn show in De
cember and shown in the name Of The
grower and the county.
AZ a joint meeting Of the corn growers
and the board Of managers Of the Douglas
County Agricultural society a resolution
was unanimously adopted providing for a
committee Of three TO wait on the county
commissioners and ask them to assist the
association by an appropriation Of 500 for
4 Douglas county exhibit at the National
Corn exposition. This committee consisted
Of j. c. Robinson, Waterloo; ]. w. Shu-
maker, Elk City. and Charles Grau, Ben

mlssioners asking for the amount mem
toned, which was allowed. At a later
meeting Of the Corn Growers association,
held at Omaha June G, a constitution and
bylaws were adopted and a committee
appointed by the president. consisting of
O. j. Pickard, VIII Lonergan and j. w.
Shumaker, to formulate a complete clas-
sification for corn. At this meeting the
score card of the Nebraska Corn I'M
provers' association was adopted and all
exhibits grown in Douglas county will be
judged under this system, and all moneys
pro-rated on exhibits scoring above seventy
points.
We wish to impress one thought on the
minds Of the corn growers, and that Is
that the premiums are only a secondary
consideration. If that were the only OBJ
jcct the officers Of this association would
not so willingly give their time and serv-
ices, but the great and real object of this
National Corn exposition is the educational
side Of it, a place where the corn growers
can come together and compare exhibits
and learn how to raise better corn, and
select the best ears, not only for show
but seed as well.

American Duchesses Retire.
Although American women are taking a
leading part in the festivities of the Lon
don season it is generally remarked that
the Anglo-American duchesses have retired
into their shells. The duchess of MARI
borough, who before her separation from
her husband was always a member of the
kings party at Ascot, is now in switzer-
land with her second son who is i'll. She
is not expected back at Sunderland house
until the utumn has set in. 1t is said
that even If she were in London and had
not the excuse of a sick son and a de-
ceased step-father to keep her out of
society, she would find another excuse,
The duke and duchess of Roxburghe were
&c form part OF the Windsor house party
but did not turn up. The couple are now
back in their ba~rrack-like home, Floors
Castle, where the duke Is always SUI
premely happy. The dislike OF society is
growing on him so that now, like his
countryman, the duke of Buccleuch, he de-
clares that he would as soon take a ticket
to Hades as to London at the height Of
the season. AS I write all the blinds of
