Lawrence 7. Sherman. whom most
of his friends call Larry Sherman
will be elected to the United States
eenate early next year unless there is
political catacIysm in November. BY
q plurality of nearly $4,000 votes the
Republican electorate of Illinois ex-
pressed its preference for sherman
over Shelby NJ. CuIlom for the sena
toria term beginning March 4. 1913
Even if the state OF Illinois should
be Democratic by $4,000 on the pres
idency in November it is said that the
Republicans will have Il majority OF
the Legislative vote on joint ballot and
I will be able to elect Va man of their
party to the United States senate.
There will be considerable number
of holdover Republican state senators.
Between Lincoln and Sherman the
parallel is almost startling in its full
ness. The two personalities touch at
many points. The physical likeness is
striking. The life of the one suggests
the life of the other in many respects.
Abraham Lincoln was distinctive for
the sad expression Of his face in re.
, pose. Sherman's face is a face Of sor.
row. Lincoln's eyes were deep set. his
cheeks sunken and heavily lined. So
are the eyes and cheeks OF Sherman
Lincoln was very tall and angular.
Sherman Ia angular, but of average
height.
Lincoln was careless of his personal
appearance. Sherman is removed to
the nth power from a Bean Brummel.
Lincoln preferred the garb which made
him one with the everyday life and
habits Of his less famous neighbors.
Sherman would rather be licked than
put on evening clothes. few years

To The 500 An
Acre Club Boosters
C., J LEE HAS A TIMELY WORD
on EVA OF DEALING IN FU-
TuREs OF FOOD STuFFs.
To the officers and members of the
500 Acre Club:

To the officers and members OF the
500 Acre Club:
desire to say to you that we
should at this time begin to revive
our club for active work for the CON-
ing season. We have many subjects
of interest to look into that are to
our benefit outside Of making the soil
produce larger yields, the production
is of course very essential matter
which l believe at this time is being
we'll cared for by competent field men
through the Better Farming Asoscia-
ton and the Agricultural College.
There is another vital subject that is
of interest to every human being, and
that is the marketing of our farm pro-
ducts so as to give a fair renumera-
ton to the producers and an oppor-
tunity for the consumer to get his
food at a reasonable price and ia
eliminate the man that stands be-
tween the two and robbing both for
out of it.
This is the man that deals in fu-
lures on grain and other food pro-
ducts, there is now a bill pending
in congress to forbid gambling in fu-
lures on food products that will be
up for hearing the 18th of Dec, and
the Chicago Board of Trade and 9TH
er boards of trade have appointed del
egates to appear before the commit
tee and prevent the passage of such
legislation or modify same to suit
their taste. What are we farmers
and business men doing for the pas
sage Of this important measure?
think We should get busy and very
busy or we will fare the same way as
We have in the past with regards to
laws of similar nature that are of
benefit to agricultural communities.
We have now a congressman belong
ing to our club and we should hold
meeting and discuss these matters
with him before he goes away to
Washington. / am satisfied thai he
will cooperate with us in these mat
tiers
This subject of elimination of deal
ing in futures on food products will
mean more to our state and the con-
sumer than anything We can do,
therefore I ask the vice president of
our association to call meeting in
the first week of January, 1913, as
our president is away from here.
believe We should get together again
and boost for our county and state as
we have done in the past.
