 Today

Rock Island, Ill.,. March 29.-The city is quiet tonight About half the troops here will leave tomorrow.
 It,is expected the coroner's jury, which is Investigating the cause of the deaths of Frank Kellogg and Raymond Swingle, victims of Tuesday nights riots, will re- turn verdict tomorrow and the indica- tions are that one or more of the per- sons most active in the street demonstra- tions that led up to the fatal clash will be held to the grand jury
 Four witnesses heard by the coroner's jury today swore they heard Harry M McCaskrin, republican candidate for state attorney, advised the crowd that he was addressing Monday night to over power the police in event they sought to prevent distribution of John Looney's weekly newspaper, an issue of which had been suppressed by order of Mayor H. M. Schriver because of an attack on the mayor.
 Looney says his paper will be pub lished tomorrow and it will be more sen sational than it was last Saturday.

"A word must be added on the social and political aspects of the country life question l have always insisted that the social. life of the country folk must be frightened. This is largely to be done by education and social organization.
 Lastly, in advocating the cooperative system-and still more the cooperative spirit-among farmers I have in view the strengthening of their political influence.
 we progressives stand for the two policies of conservation and the better ment of country life. We regard them both as urgent and claimant for action. For the last three years there has been, as regards both of them, first reactions; and. second, when under a storm of puo- lie disapproval the policy of open reaction was abandoned, weak and halting action without the forceful central leadership which can only come from deep and abid- ing conviction We demand such leader ship and we demand in the leaders tie deep conviction which alone can give such leadership; for thus only will there be response to the appeal which comes direct from the heart and conscience of the peo- pie to the mind and will of the states man."

 are of prime importance. In the first place there must be a sound, moral stan dard on public matters; our public men must represent and respond to the aroused conscience of the people. In the next place all the great natural resources which are vital to the welfare of the whole people should either be kept in the hands of or under the full control of the whole people. Either natural re- sources of the land should be kept in the hands of the people and their de- velopment and use allowed under leas- ing arrangements Cor otherwise), or where this is not possible there should be strict government control over their use.
 'I pass now to the equally important, but far less understood policy of coun- try life. In a sense you may regard this policy as the part of conservation. Of all possible husbanding of physical na- tional resources none is comparable in it's value to the nation with the con- servation of the natural fertility of the soil: and even more important is it to keep the right type of men and women on the soil
 "Thought upon the betterment of coun- try life idea, as we know it today, had not reached point where action could be taken until very near the end of my term of office.
 Obviously the first thing to do was to asceNen the facts, and especially to find out Whether a real demand for action and effective support for action were likely to come from the rural communi- ties directly concerned. I, therefore, ap pointed an unpaid commission of ex- perts who held public inquiries all over the United States and also circulated through the mails large number of printed questions. The commissioners say in their report, from which I would like to quote a great deal more: We have found by the testimony, not only of the farmers themselves, but of all per sons in touch with farm life, more or less serious unrest in every part of the Uni ted States, even in the most prosperous regions.'

Should Investigate Conditions

"FinaIly. il should be the duty of some governmental department or bu- reau to investigate the conditions in the various protected industries and see that the laborers really are get ting the benefit of the tariff supposed
 to be enacted in the>- interest. And
 if from an investigation of certain in- dustry, it appears that the tariff sup posed to be imposed for the benefit does not reach him, the tariff on that
 industry should be taken off. Moreover, to secure good treatment abroad we should keep the maximum and mln-
 imum provision.
 There is but little to add to what
 I have thus said. We believe this country is committed to the principle of the protective tariff, treated hon estly as a principle and not as bun dle of preferences, so that the benehts and burdens may be fairly and evenly distributed, and special privilege elim- mated. We do not believe in any un-
 warranted profit for anybody, but we do believe in a standard of protection adequate to maintain the high stan- dard of living of American citizens. The prime need in any future revision
 of the schedule, or in any future ar
 engagement whatsoever affecting the tariff is to protect the interest or the former and the wage worker.
 Welfare of Farmer
 "The welfare of the man who lives by tilling the. soil is ~ital to the wei fare of the nation and everything that can strengthen him in his social and industrial life should be done. The American farmer Is willing to bear his fair share of whatever is done, but he must not be asked to do more In any manufacturing or mining or sim liar interest the welfare of the wage worker should be the prime test Of the working of the tariff. We wish to see prosperity come to all our great industries, but unless the prosperity gets down past the office then it is not the right kind of prosperity; 1n
 other words, while th~ wage-worker is glad to have the employer get his full share of the prosperity, yet in return the wage worker has the right to in- sist, ard we insist for him, that fair share of the prosperity gets down past the office to be distributed among the men who work with their hands.
