COUNTRY LOSING BEST
BOYS AND Girls TO CITY,
Must Keep Up Country Stock or De
velope Peasant Class.

Manhattan. Jan. 4.--The call ol
the city has always been answered
by the brightest and best of the
young men and women on the farms
The weaker are left behind, as 9
general rule. Is there a stockman
or farmer in the country who would
expect to keep up the standards OF
his herds, flocks. or crops II ne per-

President Waters. speaking to 500
farmers in the meeting of the state
institute ON the subject, Keeping
Up the Country Stock" asked this
question.
ITO retain a fair share OF the
best stock of boys and girls on the
farm It will be necessary to equalize
the opportunities of the farm and
city" said the president. eve must
make the chances for success-con-
spicuous success-as large in one
place as In the other.
1--WE must make farming more
profitable. The intelligence OF the
people ON the farm in any country
finally Is directly related to the in
come derived from the business as
compared with the income derived
from other occupations. People will
stay on the farms II the opportuni-
ties are a. good in agriculture as in
other lines. If they are not, the
intelligent and ambitious will leave
the farm.
Reduce the income OF the farm
family in America to that Of con-
tinental Europe and a peasant class
in this country will be the inevita-
BILE result. In other words, the
American farm must yield profit
enough so that the people Of super
ior blood will be content to remain
ON the land. If farming is allowed
to become Improbable as compared
with other occupations, It will be
given over to a less efficient class
than that which now tills our soil" :"

F1LIPrNos ASK FOR FREEDOM.
Immediate Passage Of independence
Measure Urged.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Cabled in
structions from the Philippine gen.
eral assembly to work for the pas
sage of the Jones bill to provide for
Philippine independence, with a
view to action at this session If pos
sible, and, failing that. to press it
before the extra session, have been
received by Delegate Quezon Of the
Philippines. Mr.. Quezon is not very
hopeful of having the matter brought
up before the extra session, when
he has been told it might be put
through Congress as a Democratic
measure.
Mr.. Quezon, who has just return
ed from the islands, says the Philip
pine assembly and every town in the
archipelago have inuorsed the Jones
bill. The bill purposes to establish
provisional government, more lib
eral and autonomous than at pres
ent, for a probationary period Of
eight years. beginning July 4. 1918,
and that after July 4, 1921, the
United States shall relinquish all
rights Of sovereignty over the Phil
ippines and grant to its inhabitants
full and complete Independence.
The United States would retain
sovereignty over necessary naval
and coaling station sites and termin-
al points for cables. not including
the bay and harbor of Manila,
which would be left entirely to the
Filipinos. Other deep water har-
bors. equally susceptible Of fortifi-
cations and defense, such as Subig
Bay, would be considered for naval
bases and coaling sites.

FAMOUS SINGER MAY
VISIT HERINGTON.

Herington, Jan. 4.--Miss Felice
Lyme, one of the most famous OF
American singers, will probably visit
Herington the latter part Of jan
uary. She is contemplating a visit
with her uncle, l.. l.. Lyme, and
family, and she has given it out that
she will give concert in the opera
house If nothing happens to inter-
fere with her present plans. This
would be the rarest treat in any
line that this town has ever had
and the possibility that should be
greeted with enthusiasm by every
citizen of Herington. Miss Lyme
asks no guarantee, yet there is NO
reason why she should not be greet-
ed with one Of the largest audiences
In the history Of the town. Such
an opportunity Is not often placed
within the grasp of a town the size
of Herington.
Miss Felice Lyme ia one Of the
most popular singers in the world
today, and has national reputa-
tion. Newspapers have devoted col
umn after column to praising her
voice. Herington people will eagerly
await the coming of Miss Lyme.

constant struggle between line and

DsSslon Due to Opposition Of tho
Democrats.
CIVIL GOVERNMENT LATER ON
Colonel GOothals Will 10 Choice OF
Democrats for Governor When
They Get Into Power on
March 4.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-President Taft
has abandoned his announced inten-
tion to abolish the Isthmus canal
commission and appoint Col. George
W. Goethals as governor of the
Panama canal zone.
This decision is due to the oppo-
sition manifested by the Democrats
of the senate and house to any pres
ent change in the administration OF
the canal zone. They eerved what
practically amounted to an ultima
tum upon President Taft advising
him that the nomination OF Col.
Goethsls as governor would not be
confirmed. The president could not
make the nomination without abol-
1shing the canal commission. Had
ne carried out his plan and the
Democrats remained obdurate, q
chaotic condition Of affairs would
have been precipitated in the 18TH
mus. There would have been no Of
SiciaI head 70 the work and the last
Few months Of construction Of the
canal might have been attended by
friction.
The fact thet the president has
desided not TO establish civil gov
eminent on the isthmus at this time
does not mean that Col Goethais will
not be named as the first civil gov
ernor Of, the completed canal. The
leaders In the Democratic party an
nOunced yesterday that they intend
20 vie with the Republicans In CIV
ing the colonel all the honor which
properly is due him. What they OBJ
5ected to was the apparent attempt
on the part Of the Taft administra-
tion TO deprive their party OF parti-
eipation in the construction OF the
water way. II civil government had
been established. the country would
have believed the canal completed
under Republican rule. AS 1t is the
canal will not be finished for six
months at the earliest. When the
water is allowed to run through the
cut, then the Democrats say. they
will authorize civil government and
Col. Goethals will be at the head.
