WALDO REPUBLICANS SURE OF
VICTORY IN THAT COUNTY when
SEPTEMBER Vote IS COUNTED
and Democrats Have a Stomach
Full of Psychology" and Are Demand
ing Something More Substantial

Belfast, Maine, July 1.-(Special)-
A remarkable meeting of the Republi
can committeeman of Waldo county
was held here Tuesday. In spite of
the heavy downpour of cold rain,
nearly 100 Republicans were as
sembled in the Waldo county head
quarters when the morning session
was called to order at 10 A NJ. by
Chairman West. The rain cut down
the attendance considerably, but 1t
did not cut down the spirits of those
in attendance and the political skies
shone so brightly that no one was
troubled by the dark clouds furnished
by the weather man.
Chairman West first welcomed the
committeeman to the new headquar-
ters and told them the room was for
their use and they would be expected
to make free use of it. He then In
troduced State Chairman Frederic H.
Parkhurst who began without delay
to canvass the political situation as
thoroughly as possible.
AS in all other Republican county
meetings TO cate the reports given
We're altogether favorable to Republic
can success. Not one disquieting fact
was brought TO light in the meet
ing, and every man reporting was
questioned most carefully in order that
no adverse circumstance might escape
notice. If there is anything standing
between Waldo county Republicans
and a tremendous Republican victory
in that county in September it is not
yet in sight.
Furthermore. it developed in this
meetings held since the primaries,
that the Progressive element is so
small as to be negligible. It is safe
to estimate that the Progressive por-
ton of the September vote will be less
than five per cent. of the total. Near
ly every man who reported at the
meeting on the conditions in his town
had been a Roosevelt man; certainly
there could be no more determined
Republicans than they are today. Not
only is the Progressive vote practical
ly wiped out in Waldo county but the
few who remain loyal to the Progress
sive cause are not oVerproud of their
allegiance. One man said there we're
several men in his town said to be
Progressives, but only one of them
would acknowledge ii openly. 1t was
stated that of the town of Waldo
Progressives who voted for Lawrence
only one had remained loyal to the
cause and he had moved into another
town and county.

at this %jucture a President who
entertains the views MIR. Wilson
does on international peace. Our
Republican and Progressive
friends have criticized the MeXi-
can policy of the administration

the floor Of the Senate and the
House. Hardly had the sound of
their voices died out when we
heard the tramp of armies
through Europe and found the
Old World engulfed in an awful
war.

Wilson with his record for peace
than have all the combined glor-
les the crowned heads of Europe
can get out of the situation on
the Continent.
"The President has proved
himself to be a man of the high
est moral courage, a man who
was willing to assume the re-
sponsibility for what seemed an
unpopular policy and to pursue
that policy without defending
himself against criticism, know
ing that he was all right all the
time. America can ill afford to
do without such a man at this
period in her history"

A Plea to the Men.

Two weeks ago a call was made
for a meeting of the women Of
Lexington, who were interested
in the temperance cause. In
spite Of a disagreeable rainy
day, forty-fve or fifty women
responded by their presence ;
while a good many others ex-
pressed a desire to come, but
could not risk the exposure.
Last week a similar call was
made to the men-the response
was eleven present, with no ex-
preston from the absentees.
Is it chivalrous to thus ignore
the expression Of the deep de-
sires of the women's hearts?-
the women who must live and
rear their children in the land
but have not the power of the
ballot.
Is it chivalrous to longer
tolerate a traffic that makes our
laboring men go home and beat
and abuse the patient, hard
working woman who bear chill
dren? A traffic that is invading
our prOudest homes, as well as
our humblest, whitening the
locks Of the mothers and steal
ing the bloom from the cheeks
of the wives?
The tragedies of drink have
occurred so often that the edi-
tors Of some of our papers have
grown so calloused as to make a
jest Of them.
Oh, men of Lexington! Many

Hog Cholera Must Go Say M. u.
Men.

Men.
The College of Agriculture OF
the University of Missouri hopes
to almost entirely remove hog
cholera from the state. To
fight the disease it is helping
the farmers to organize anti-hog-
cholera clubs for the prevention
and cure of the diseases. The
college works by counties. BE-
ginning Oct. 26 and continuing
for a week the College of Agri-
culture will conduct a series OF
meetings throughout Cass coun-
ty to form such clubs. In adj
dition to the help in organiza-
ton the college will keep a spec
ialist in the county as long as
any traces of the disease exists.
This system of fighting hog
cholera was started by the Col
lege of Agriculture last fall with
the successful organization of
johnson County. The Faculty
homes the farmers of all the
counties in Missouri will coop
crate with them for it is only
with the help of the farmers
that the disease can be driven
out.
The College of Agriculture is
building what will probably be
the finest plant for the manu-
facture of hog cholera serum in
the United States. This plant
became necessary because Of the
increased demand for serum
from the farmers of the state
amounting to 80 per cent over
last year. The plant will be fin
ished December 1. The extent
of the work done by the College
of Agriculture in graduating the
disease is shown by the fact that
2O8, 1919 doses of serum repre-
senting almost as many hogs
treated were sent out by the col
lege during the year. Between
IS and 80 per cent of those treat
ed were saved, which alone is a
saving to the state of Missouri
of almost one and a half million
dollars.

S. Government Will Aid Mis-.
souri, Farmers.

0OhAA n oA AANAOs
The United States government
has shown its faith in the Col
lege of Agriculture of the Uni
versity Of Missouri to the ex-
tent of putting it in charge of
the total amount of the Smith
Lever funds for the state. The
Smith Lever Bill, which was
passed by Congress last spring,
gives to the state of Missouri
during the coming nine years,
for the purpose Of demonstra-
ton and extension work, a sum
of almost eight hundred thous-
and dollars.
This year the state got $4,000
of the appropriation. The Col
lege of Agriculture is dividing it
among five types of aid for far
mers and stOckraisers of the
state: hog cholera eradication,
movable schools Of home econ
omics, boys and girls club work,
dairy and poultry demonstration
and egg marketing.
Next year the appropriation
from the United States govern
ment will amount to 500, 036,
provided the state makes an APP
preparation of $23, O36 to be used
for the same purpose. The
United States government re-
quires a state appropriation each
year equal to the appropriation
for all over $4,000. The fund
from the United States govern
ment increases each year until
in the ninth year the state of
Missouri will receive $167,411.
