No one outside the Democratic party

CALLS PEACE PLANS MYTH
General Charles King Says Wars Are
inevitable.

inevitable.
while nations continue to arm and
prepare for war; as long as man re-
mains as God Almighty has made
him, war will be inevitable in spite of
the desire for peace.
Though the editorial essays and
the pleas from the rostrum for dis
armament are very beautiful the pro-
gram for universal peace will not
work out 1t has not worked out in
the past and until the second coming
prophesied in Holy Writ will not
work out in the future"
This was the declaration of General
Charles King, U. S. A., retired, in an
address on the necessity of discipline
before the assemblage Of officers of
the Wisconsin national guard at Mil
waukee.
"God takes care of fools and of the
United States,' was the quotation
from Prince Bismarck that General
King used to illustrate the country's
general unpreparedness for war.

PROPOSED PACKING PLANT

This plant will mean lot to the
farmers Of these two counties. For
one thing it will provide an ever
ready market for their stock. 1t
will provide a market that will
save them from S35 to $40 on each
carload Of their stock, as it will
save them such shipping expense
as switching fees, bedding, feed
ing, yard charges, selling COM
mission and shrinkage. Accord
ing TO the plans under which these
plants are run-the Lacrosse plant,
for instance-the prices paid here
will be the same as the Chicago
market, less freight, and, as stated
above, will be without hte con-
siderable expense of long distance
shipping.
The plans for the plant call for
building and equipment valued at
100000. The company is to be
incorporated at $25O,OOO; $15O,OOO to
be working capital. From go to
125 people will be employed in the
plant. The daily capacity will use
800 hogs, so calves and 50 sheep.
Every hit Of carcass is to be
manufactured into some product.
A patent device for turning the
gases back into the furnace for
fuel will entirely eliminate all bad
odor.
Lacrosse has had its packing
plant in operation for some time
and it is highly successful, 1t is
to be added to soon to accommodate
increased business. Wausau has
completed all preliminaries and
will commence the construction OF
of it's plant next month. Madison
is also to have one this year.
These plants, with the local one,
will stabilize prices-they will
keep the market open, a constant
demand. At one time last week
the South st. Paul market was
SO flooded with stock that prices
took an awful slump-an q the
farmers that day alone in that
one market, would have paid for
this plant, and a good deal over.
The packing plant will boost
every busin IS interest in River
Falls, through the widening Of her
trade territory. Farmers Will
haul their stock here from a much
longer distance than at present.
The price advantages mentioned
above will insure that, and those
who may be nearer some other
shipping point would rather make
a longer drive and put their stock
down at the market rather than
unload them for shipment at their
local station. Those who under
stand the situation thoroughly are
boosting the project. All join IN
and help them. River Fails
wants the packing plant.
