Farm Facts

Agriculture needs all the great
men it can get.
In union there is strength and
IN cooperation there is profit.
The farmer can neither help
himself nor be helped by others
until he organizes.
The economic distribution of
farm products is today the
worlds greatest problem.
Our transportation systems are
the dray carts of agriculture and
can be made capable peddlers of
farm products.
The middleman is nothing more
than q farm hand but he is able
to nix his own wages and to COL
lect them and to multiply his
transactions as he pleases.
Bumper crops without market
facilities have sent more farmers
staggering down the back alleys
OF agriculture than all the pests
and droughts that ever cursed
the nation.

MAN is JAILED
ON GIRLS STORY
Latter Tells How Harry Moore
Attempted to Lure Her
Away With Him.

Little Mabel Montgomery, aged IL
wears. daughter of Mrs. Mabel Mont
gomery. 1908 Seventeenth street. told
a story in police court this morning
of the attempts made by Harry Moore,
a man aged 45 years, to lure her away
with him while she was standing in
Market square on the morning of Sep
TENDER 1.
The little girl gave in graphic de-
tails a full account of what Moore said
and did. She said:
Il came from the dentists office and
was waiting for the Long View car,
when this man came up to me. He
said that it was a nice day after the
rain and l said SO. too. Then he told
me he had found ring when he was
out in the country the day before.
"He said that / could have the ring.
I told him to go away and that l was
going home Then he said that he
would get me some candy and went
away. He came back again and offer
ed me the ring again. I told him no
Then he told me he had a girl. He
said she would make nice play-friend
for me and said that she was coming
TO him in a short time. He told me
to go down the street 10 the railroad
yards and that he would meet me
there and take me to this girl.
II didn't go with him but got on a
car and came home" The girl told a
straight story and the mother also
testified.
Moore declared lie never saw the
girl before. He said his character was
good and that he had been in and out
of this town for number of years.
Magistrate Smith fined him 500,
in default of which he went to the
county Jail for 20 days.

The Irish standard., 1914-06-13
tied state the Irish people will have

ated state the Irish people will have
little cause to rejoice. as they GER
tainly will feel that opposition is bet
ter than betrayal. The government
in measure, seems to feel safe as
it no doubt is basing its calculations
upon the fact that the Irish National
Volunteer movement is an out and
out attempt to express not only Ire
lands enthusiasm but Ireland's ma
tional seriousness. The fact that the
Irish leaders have recognized and
are now giving their support to the
volunteer movement may lead parlia-
ment to imagine a certain sort of Sc
curity. Should the army refuse to
put down the rebellion in Ulster the
government might then witness the
spectacle which we now assume
might not be altogether displeasing
to the British Unionists, that of see
ing civil war carried on between the
Irish Parties themselves. The gov
eminent might thus wash its hands
of the affair and gladly witness the
scene of action transferred from Par
Lament to Ulster with the so-called
provincial army of Ulster and the
National Volunteers as the principal
actors. 1t is as yet too soon to de-
termine the position of the govern
ment on this last phase Of the ques-
ton. Gun-running has been quite
general. On Tuesday of this week
the National Volunteers welcomed
Redmond's cooperation and at the
same time made a demand for the
repeal of the proclamation forbid
ding the importation of firearms into
Ireland. The stage is set and pre-
pared for action with the scene be-
ing laid both in Ireland and in Par
lament. Advices from London indi-
cate that funds have been coming in
generous amounts from America.
With this comes the news that the
Nationalist may refuse to vote with
the government upon government
measures if further concessions are
granted to Ulster. Almost on the
eve of the bill going to the House of
Lords with probable amendments at
tached the situation grows more COM
pick every day. Little patience can
be shown toward the government
since they so clearly won on the
third reading of the Bill and now
20 back to where they started from
and deal with anything but firm
hand. This will not be tolerated. 1t
is too much to pay for peace, and
too serious for such dallying as the
government is doing. 1t is unfortu-
nate to win victory and not know
how to use it.
