Senator Roden's Platform

Senator ROden is strong on labor legislation. He is of opinion that men are made for something else besides working and that they are entitled to at least as much protection and care as is ordinarily bestowed upon domestic animals. Mr. Roden further advocates
 d lien law that will include the claim. He maintains that no man mas q right to speculate upon the labol 'Of another man. and that layman or C aim-owner has no business to hire an' body if he has not the means to pay for the labor. I've talk gIibly about woman suffrage, Australian ballot system, referendum and other theoretical propositions, continued Senator Roden. "I am in favor of all of them and anxious to sup port any bill introduced upon any or ali of these subjects. But first of all l want to see some material good accOn. ph5hed. Don't you think that the edu- cation of one single child in the whole territory i5 of more material benefit to the human race than the introduction of the Australian ballot system? Would it not be better to have q thousand politicians defeated at the polls for the lack of a proper ballot than to have one man injured in a mlne and left helpless and penniless because the em- ployers can successfully defend under the assumption of risk doctrine? Would you not rather see all the married men come home to their wives and children at } in the evening. wash up and read the paper before eating their supper; and then have a little time left for themselves before going to bed, than see all the women in Alaska go to the polls and vote for the next legislature"

The statement that congress can veto all acts of the terri tory is founded on fallacy.

CROPS

Crops in the United States for
1913, according to U. s, crop report
Dec. l, were short of the ten year
average, but, as much of the great
crop of 1912 was held over, the
shortage will not be materially no.
ticed. Corn was the smallest crop
since 1918. Wheat was the biggest
ever harvested and oats the third
largest in the history of the country.
Cotton about an average crop and
hay was short of an average crop.
Locally crops were above the aver
age and with the prices offered. our
farmers will not notice the loss of
their hogs by cholera. With the
amount of grain now being market
ed it seems that January obligations
ought to be met readily and that we
might all enter into the holiday
season with proper spirit.

The regular annual Farmer In

Jan. 18th and 18th. and it is the de-

that every farmer tributary to Hur-

in the meeting. The Farmers In

complishing an untold amount of
good. Crops adapted to the soil
conditions are being practiced, farms
are being handled in a more rational
and scientific manner, more and bet
ter live stock is being raised and
prosperity is evident on every hand.
This has been. in part at least, due
to the efforts Of the Farmers In
stitutes.
Let us make these meetings better
this year than they have ever been
before.
Let every business man in Hurley
put his shoulder to the wheel and
make mighty effort to make it 8
success. Let us provide for a big
