heard through thin partition, Mr..
Hanson is out to pa, the Record out
of business because he and his little
eoterie of political iupglers cannot
cram everything they like down The
writer's throat, He states that ,,s

that he himself would start another

Of time to become we'll rooted with
plenty Of moisture and not enough

In connection with our present
crop prospects and weather condi-
tions, 1t is interesting to note the
similarity Of our present conditions
with those Of twenty-five years ago
the senson Of 1880. In that year,
as can be seen by the twenty-five
years.ago items in another column,
practically the same conditions are
reported for the corresponding

thing little farther and so we
looked over the following files tc

Of the season. Then a protracted
dry spell struck tho county and the
crop was diminished considerably
thereby. However. there was bet

can do as we'll this year It will be {
good thing for the county.

however. to hear every word he
spoke.
We have already called attention
to the fact that Mr.. Hanson had de-
ciared a boycott" on the Record.
He took good care, however. to
avoid the issue and framed up long
list Of excuses for removing his ad-
vertising excuses far from the
truth. We knew better then and
,, we know it first.hand now. He and
come Of his political co-workers have
had the support Of the Record in
Coping off" political jobs. because
the Record editors considered them
capable officials. That doesn't sat
isfy men Of the cringing, vacillat-
ing type to which Mr.. Hanson be-
longs. 1t isn't sufficient that they
have had the support of the Record.
They propose to 10 further and die.

shall not support.
Come on, Heinie, and stand by
your guns. You say you'll put an
other paper in here ii YOU can get a
printer to 80 In with you. Does
that mean that the printer is to fur
nish the money and you'll handle the
political dope? There are plenty of
printers to be had. Just foot the
bills. Mr.. Hanson. and don't ask
some poor devil Of a printer to do it
for you. The Record will continue
its policy Of supporting legitimate
candidates for public Office. Mr..
Hanson is not debating now and
will never dictate to this paper as
long as tine present owner is in
charge cut-throat Opposition
paper" threat notwithstanding.
The Record has supported Mr..
Hansen for the office Of county
superintendent Of schools for the
past six years. Although he thought
he was snoutiDg his "gush" in abso-
Lutte security and that it would not
come to the writer's ears to whom
he was protesting friendship person
ally and knitting" in secret, his
sentiments are nevertheless the
same. We would rather have him
for an open enemy than cut-throat
friend. We have reason to believe
that he still has political aspirations
in his bonnet and in due time he
will probably have sufficient troubles
Of his own, so we will be satisfied to
wait for him to sign his own political
death-warrant. Later. - We were
right. He has announced himself

A SQUARE DEAL

The National Farmers Union is de-
manding square deal from congress
and state legislatures on the marketing
of farm products.
The federal and state govern
ments have been spending millions OF
dollars annually in urging the farmer
to increase production. hut little atten-
tion has been given to the marketing
side of the question.
1t is a we'll known paradox that the
larger the crop the less the value and a
stimulant to production without corres-
ponding aid in marketing, loses much
Of its worth to agriculture. The nation
is fast awakening to the fact that
marketing, and not production, is the
Lprohlem of the farmer.
