To Vote on Question of Union.

Notice has been sent out from Ma
tional headquarters of .he American
Society of Equity by Secretary-Treas-
urer S. d. Kump to all local unions
requesting them to NEE. as carly in
July as possible with as large attend
ance as is possible and vote upon the
question of the union of the Amreican
Society of Equity with the Farmers
Educa icnal Cooperative Union, with
i.lhe request t(hat a report be made Of
the result Of the vote at the ear
hest possible convenience. The plan
of union was published in May 18th
issue of the Equlty Farm Journal. Ev-
cry member of the organization who
was in good standing on that date
should have received the paper con-
taining the plan of union. This un-
ion was planned by the st. Louis
Convention and recommended by the
Equity members of the joint commit
tee as we'll as by the Farmers Union
members.

COUNTY UNION
Holds Important Meeting-VOtes
to Extend Closing Dates
of Pooling Pledges.

The Ohio County Union of the
American Society of Equity met in
regular session at the court house
in Hartford July 1. BY previous
arrangements only one days session
was held, the business Of the meet
ing having been completed during the
first day. President S. L. Stevens
presided and in the absence of the
secretary, C. E. Smith, who was away
on important legal business, assist
ant secretary, F. l.. Felix offioiated.
The meeting was interesting and
business-like from the first,and was
we'll attended, considering the very
busy season of the Year and the fact
that farmers generally have been de-
layed In their work on account OF the
late spring. A resolution was adopted
by a vote of large majority of the
delegates present extending the time
for the closing of the pooling piedg-
es from July 1st, to October 1st. There
we're few who opposed she resolu-
tion and their argument in opposition
thereto carried considerable weight,
but owing 10 the fact that on the
first of July few people know whether
they will have tobacco and those who
do know do not know how much on
what quality of same they will have,
it seems only proper that the pledges
should not he closed until a much
later date. This view was taken by
those favorirg a late date. A plan
was devised whereby samples for the
sale of the 1910 crop of tobacco Will
be selected to more thoroughly rep
resent the years product. A resolu-
ton was adopted favOring 1he union
of tiieAmcrican Society Of Equity with
the Farmers Educational and Cooper
ative Union, as recommended and
planned by the St.Louis JOINT conven-
tion of the two associations. If this
union is effected by a vote of the
locals, which vote will be recorded
during this month, the new organi-
cations will nave the largest MEM
bership of any farmers organization
ever perfected in America. The Far
mer's Educational and Cooperative
Union has an estimated membership
of three and a half millions and the
American Society of Equity some
thing like three millions.

Value of Good Roads.
Columbus Record.

Columbus Record
Words of wisdom from our esteem
ed contemporary, the Gaffney Led
ger:
"a good country road is always to
be desired, and is a source ofcomfort
and convenience to every traveller.
Good roads attract population, as
we'll as good schools and churches.
Good roads improve the value OF
the property, so that a farm lying
five miles from market, connected by
a bad road, is of less value than an
equally good farm, lying ten miles
away from market, connected by a
good road. A larger load can be
drawn by one horse over a good road
than by two over a bad one. Good
roads encourage the greater ex-
change of products and commodities
between one section and another"
And yet there are croakers and
non-progressive individuals in all
sections who are either blind and can
not see the value of good highways
or are ignorant of the great advan-
tages to he secured through the build
ing and maintenance of first-class
graded roadways.

Surprising Facts About the Patent

Des Moines Iowa Capital, March %.
THE Fourth Estate has been warn
iEg publishers about the risk in allowing
credit to new medicine concerns 1t is
said that there have been only one or
two the thousands OF new proprietary
medicine houses have made any consid-
erable money that have started the past
twenty years and only a very few more
that have met with even moderate sue
cess. sIt is the general impression that
the business is immensely profitable
while the facts are that there is a larger
percentage of failures than in any other
line. The new concerns usually start
with lots of confidence in the merit OF
their goods and advertising but soon ex-
haust their capital leaving dealers who
have stocked their medicines with unsal-
able goods on their shelves. 1t is the ex-
perience OF many publishers that have
accepted this new business that they
have been compelled to charge of their
bills to profit and loss
There are many old and reliable medi-
cine houses that continue to do a good
or increasing business from year TO year
but the new ones are finding it more and
more difficult to become established.

What Can We Say.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.


In ao lressing a New York audience,
Ex-Governor Glenn, speaking of North
Carolina, said there was not a saloon
in the State.
A regard for the truth as strict as
should control the utterances of so
good a man should have prompted
the ex-governor to qualify his asser-
tion by inserting the word licensed"
before the word saloon" The name
OF the illicit stills in full operation is
legion. The number of Federal per-
mits issued to dealers was greater
last year than ever before. The
nbiquity of the blind tiger is obtru-
siyely in evidence; and the drug stores
are fountains in the wilderness to
which every one who thirsteth can
repair with no apprehension of COM
ing away dry. These conditions may
satisfy the professional reformer, who
is satisfied when law is written on
the statute books and is more con-
cerned to Danish the saloon than to
lessen the consumption of liquor; but
the real friend of temperance and foe
to drunknness finds little in the stu
alton to excite satisfaction.

Recently counsel for the defense in
a murder trial in a New York court
moved for a new trial when his client
was convicted of second degree mur-
der, carrying a prison sentence. The
new trial was promptly granted and
resulted in conviction OF first de-
gree murder and the imposition OF
the death penalty. -Four years ago
Solomon Brantley, Of Georgia, was
convicted OF manslaughter. Counsel
obtained a new trial and the result
was a conviction Of murder and a
sentence to life imprisonment. This
was not the result expected of course
and counsel contended that having
been convicted OF manslaughter on
the first trial the defendant could not
legally be convicted of a more serious
offense on the second trial. In the
effort to establish this contention the
case was finally carried to the Su-
preme Court OF the United States.
The court has affirmed the judgment
OF the lower court, holding the con-
tention of the defendants counsel
! ubsurd. If it becomes custom for
new trials to result in this way the
lawyers will not be so anxious to OBJ
tain another hearing when their
| clients do not receive the extreme
penalty in The first round.

Justice Without Delay.
New York World.

4NcN 1OTh W OTiu
Those who speak and write on the
subject of justice in the abstract al
ways associate it with expedition.
Justice that is needlessly delayed is
not complete Justice that is too
costly is deficient. Justice must be
prompt as we'll as equal, exact and
cheap.
A protest is made by his lawyer be-
cause a young man charged with a
murder OF peculiar atroeity is to be
placed on trial in New York less than
three weeks after the date OF the
crime. Yet if justice only is the end
in view it would be difficult to pres
ent agood reason why the case should
not be passed upon at once.
The fact that the State is ready in
dicates confidence on the part of the
authorities that they can establish
the prisoners guilt. Delays for
months or, as sometimes happens,
for years are apt to result in the loss
of important testimony and so per.
haps in the defeat OF justice.
President Taft has said more than
once in the last two years that "the
administration OF criminal law in this
country is disgrace to civilization. F"
"There is delay in civil cases also, "
he. has said, "and it always works to
the disadvantages of the poor"
Delay is the greatest foe of Justice,
criminal and civil. Every lawbreaker
fights for it, knowing that he has
something to gain and nothing to
lose by it. Every powerful man Or
interest fights for it, knowing that
time and expense may exhaust the
weaker adversary.
There is no injustice, therefore, in
bringing speedily to trial men accused
Of crime. 1t is the first and one OF
the most necessary steps toward true
justice.
