The Tenant Must be A
Real Farmer.

In short, the tenant IarIner' Inc
the landowner, must be a real
farmer, not mere raiser OF cotton
for money and corn for feed. he
also needs to be a reading and
thinking farmer, just as much as
does the manwho owns big estate.
He especially needs to take thought
As to how he can make his labor
more effective, for his labor is his
stock in trade. He puts it into the
partnership-which is what rental
contract really is-against the land
lords capital. He must make it
count. If he depends on one crop
or two to supply him with every
thing, he is not going to get the
most for his labor, nor is he gong
to be able to make the sort of liv-
ing he should. The tenant farmer
is not a mere machine for raising
cotton and corn on some other
mans land; he is man capable OF
thought and business. Ii Re manage
ment and he must give just as
much attention to the business side
of his work as to the mechanical.
The landlord, too, if he is wise
will not imagine that he wants a
man simply to raise as much OF
some money crop as possible. That
way soil depletion lies and ultimate
poverty. 1t IS, in the long run,
Just as much to the interest of the
landowner as OF the tenant to have
legumes growing alongside the
corn and cotton and tobacco, to
have pastures and hogs and cattle
on the farm, to have fruit on it,
and fences and decent buildings
and healthfuI surroundings. When
the tenant gets sick, or when he
f ais to cultivate his crops we'll, or
when he neglects the pro6t-paying
"side lines" to strive for bigger |
WELD of the money crops, Or when
he fails to make a profit out OF
his work the landlord suffers too.
Farming with only one years
profits In view will not make the
cropper prosperous or add to the
prosperity of the landowner.
The average tenant farmer does
not make enough money-does not
get the sort of living to which aB
industrious, thrifty man is entitled.
He can get more in many cases by
doing better farming and giving
m ore thought to his work, and in
nearly all cases, if he is really an
industrious and thrifty man, he |
could get more, and also give his
landlord more, if rental contracts
were made for term of years in
stead of for a single season, and it
the landlord would give him a
C nance to be real farmer instead
of a mere cropper with no inter-
est outside of one or two crops to
be sold at the seasons end.-The
Progressive Farmer.

being given an opportunity to line up,
either with the liquor crowd or
against it.
The League believes the county
Prohibition bill will pass, although it
will be strenuously opposed by the
liquor interests, and the League has
taken the number" of every states
man and politician. There can be no
evasion, no equivocation, no hiding
in the bush. Superintendent Ander-
son has devoted no little energy to
smoking out every man in anywise
connected with legislation or party
management.
But the Anti-Saloon League is not
waiting until the adjournment of the
Prohibition fight. The League real
ICES that the liquor interests are still
foolish enough to try to defeat the
local Prohibition measure, and instead
of waiting fifteen months to see if it
can be beaten by fraud, the League
will simply make all preparation for
the broader fight.
The League is like the boy asking
his mother for some cake. He is
bound eventually to get the larger
piece, but he will take the smaller one
now, if that is all he can get, but keep
his eye on the bigger slice all the
time, and, while eating the smaller
one, renew his efforts to get the larger
one.
When the county bill has passed,
it will be easy enough to stop the
statewide fight long enough to make
use of the local measure thoroughly,

BALTIMORE, MD, JANUARY
But l do not hesitate to say that if
the right of the people locally to pass
at the polls upon the liquor question
is denied to them, the question of Pro-
hibition will become an imminent one,
because then the people will ire
pressibly force it forward"
This is a paragraph from the letter
of Hon. Isaac Lobe Straus, former
attorney general and Democratic can
didate for United States senator, in re-
ply to a query of the Anti-Saloon
League as to Mr.. Straus' attitude to-
ward granting the people of Maryland
opportunity to vote on the issue OF
local Prohibition. Mr. Straus, in his
letter, in nowise indicates that he
stands for Prohibition, but unmistak-
ably declares the right of the people
to decide by vote, whether or not they
favor Prohibition, and warns the
liquor men that if they oppose local
settlement of the issue, they may
bring about, by their own obstinacy,
general Prohibition.
Mr. Straus has merely emphasized
a right for which the Democratic party
has long contended-that of as large
measure of local self-government as is
consistent with state and federal unity.
The present effort of the Maryland
Anti-Saloon League is directed toward
the passage of measure giving coun-
ties the right to vote out the saloon.
Statewide Prohibition is the ultimate
purpose, of course, but it is not being
pressed now. The political parties
of Maryland and their leaders are

and use the organization and senti-
ment thus created for the statewide
contest. Of course, the more rapidly
the state goes dry under local Prohi-
bition, the more easily possible will be
the realization of the plan to make
Maryland dry under state Prohibition.
A big mass meeting for the local
measure will be held in the Lyric the
ater on the afternoon of January 2o.
Among the speakers will be Judge
J. C. McWhorter, who was president
of the West Virginia Ratification Fed
Grafton.
The declaration of Mr.. Straus
causes division in his party. Many
of its leaders are not in favor of de-
claring for county Prohibition, but
the voters of the party are, and the
issue is clean-cut. Those who take
stand against Straus must give out to
the world their allegiance to the booze
crowd.
Taking advantage of the split in
Democratic ranks, the Republicans
have a golden opportunity to declare
for the measure, especially as it seems
to be the present purpose of the Pro-
gressives not to come out in favor OF
saloon-restriction All things are pos
sible. of course, even in politics, and
the demand of the voters of all
parties, most of whom are against the
domination of the liquor ring, is likely
to become so powerful and insistent
that every political party will have
plank in it's platform declaring for
county Prohibition.

UTAH MINING FACES
A GREAT PROBLEM
Early Decision Must Be Made
Else Outside Interests Will
Corral Rewards.

There is possibility that in Utah will
be repeated some soon day the expert
encc OF Butte throughout the present
year. whereby outside talent and capital
VIII discover in established districts such
as Bingham. Tintic and Park city min
eral territory which local people have
Ignored for years: and which. upon proper
Investigation. will be found as valuable
as the developed portions. Butte has
been pulled from tho depths OF despair
within n few busy months 10 one OF the
end honorable history. and solely by the
discovery that untouched ground TO be
had for mere song was as valuable rs
any In the whole ca mp.
II Is evident that big interests sup
posedly familiar with conditions failed TO
appreciate the opportunities at their ba elk
doors, and II took strangers with nerve
merit. In Utah are as many men of
means as Butte can boast Of. and they
know the mining game from the surface
down. What IS needed in Utah is conti-
dencc and display OF the nerve and
ability with which past fortunes have
been acquired. In the coming years these
men will look back and recall the un-
touched propositions which can be had
for the asking today. but which unques-
uonably are as worthy OF development
as any success thereabout.
The greater part Of Utah has never
been scratched FOR mineral. There are
chances for tremendous fortunes in a
dozen different sections, but these
chances Will never be taken advantage
OF until those who know the game and
who have the means with which to VEN
ture get back to q mental condition that
has been chara cterlstic OF Utah up 10 a
year or so ago. With returning cheer
fulness throughout the financial centers
will come outside interests on the search
for mines. and IL remains TO be seen
whether Utah interests Will remain
seated In idleness and let outside lnves-
tors reap the rewards, whether they
will follow their better Judgment and
keep these rewards at homo for home
