OPPOSE NEW WooDMEN LEVY

Chicago, Jan. pa convention OF
the head camp of the Modern Wood
men of America, composed of about
500 delegates representing the 1900
600 members OF the order throughout
the country, met in this city today to
consider and act upon the question OF
raising the insurance rates of the or
ganization. The higher rates are pro-
posed in order to conform with the So
called Mobile law, measure agreed
upon by a convention of fraternal in
surance organizations held at Mobile,
Ala, a year ago, which decided upon
uniform rate in order to meet the
requirements of the insurance laws OF
many of the states.
Many of the local camps OF the
| Woodmen have protested against the
proposed increase and the opposition
has gone so far as to threaten seces
sion from the parent organization II
the assessment is raised.

Cowpeas in Kansas.

We shall certainly increase our acre
age of cowpeas next year. The only
bad feature about them we can see is
that we have not nearly enough to last
through the winter. So far as we can
discover. they are just as good as
clover or alfalfa and stock like them
every bit as well They will lend them
selves much more readily to rotation
Of crops than alfalfa and this will go
far toward making up for the trouble
of sowing them each year. Cowpeas
are going to be a great thing for that
mart of Kansas in which alfalfa does
not do well.-Topeka Mail and Breeze

John Wesley, the founder OF Meth
odism, was close observer and his
writings contain almost as much prac-
tical wisdom as do those Of BENJAMIN
Franklin. For instance, he records an
observation to the effect that farmers
living on good highways were con-
tented, progressive and prosperous;
while those whose homes were on bad
roads were grouchy. negligent and
thriftless.

he uses Hitchcock as stalking horse,

Absolutely Free to Do
Right as He Saw 1t

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-(SpeciaD-
These are indeed new times, and
with new times there have come new
recognitons and new ways of doing
things. This is all specially true OF
government and the relation that the
Press of the nation has to public al
fairs
1t was Doctor Wilson, president OF
Princeton University, Democratic
nominee for governor Of New jersey
who coined the term, "Pitiless Pub
licity." It was Governor Woodrow
Wilson of New Jersey, who made that
term vital and li' ing thing. until
today il has become The watchWord
of the press ana people.
GOV. Wilson has called upon the
press of New Jersey to aid him il
every battle he has matched against
the entrenched political bosses in
their partnership With big business
Gov. Wilson has Ion every battle
against the enemies OF the pecpl
and their Government III NeW je+
sey, because the press OF New Jersc =
hot only the Democratic and Ind
pendent press, but 2 large m3iJrty
OF the Republican neWspapers-Ga
enlisted in his fight.
Always holding the press in high,
est esteem, Gov. Wilson recognizes
it as the most potent factor in the
great contest now going on wherein
the people are trying to regain con
troll of the government
Gov. Wilson takes the position that
it is as much the duty of the people
to own the party machinery as it is
the Government machinery; for this
is a government of parties, and the
government can. therefore, be no bet
ter than the political party in pow
er. Neither can the party be any
better than the influences which put
it in power. In the past these in
lluences have been corporations and
individuals seeking special privileges
from the government Naturally
they have in turn owned the govern
ment and eXacted from government
officials heavy tribute in return fol
havin" financed the campaign thai
save these officials their positions OF
power.
bUV. Wilson wants nothing and will
have nothing of this sort. He wants
the people to own the party. which
means they will own the government
Therefore, he wants the campaign
expenses incurred in making him
president of the United States. and
in turning this government over to
the Democratic party, to be contri
buted according to each ones ability
by the millions of citizens who
ought to own the Government and
in whose interests the government
ought, and must be administered.
Gov. Wilson asks the cooperation
of the press of the nation. The meth
cd adopted for the press, is to open
it's columns in appeals for popular
subscriptions from the readers of the
.eWs spaUcrs OF The country.

rate of Jackson county, in 1910, was
the lowest Of any county in the state.
There was assessed only ten mills on
the dollar for all county purposes, and
six mills of this amount was for the
county public schools. Considering
the fact that the property in Jack
son county is assessed at not more
than one-fifth it's true value, the tax
rate on nominal cash valuation
would not be over mills on the
dollar
