Prospects are ENCOURAGING

The prospects for a bumper crop
were never better in Seward county
at this time of year The snow and
rain of the last two weeks has put
the ground in a thoroughly soaked
condition, and farmers who know
whereof they speak tell us there is
enough moisture in the ground right
now TO insure wheat crop ifnot an
other drop should fall between now
and harvest, which is unlikely A
large acreage Of wheat has been sown
in the territory tributary to Liberal.
which, with the big row crops soon TO
be planted, will make things hum
around here this fall. A good deal
OF last years crop is still in the farm
ers' bins, and is liable to stay there
until the roads get better and the
farmers have caught up with their
spring work. Everything looks rosy
for another prosperous year in the
southwest.

One of the state senators of Tope-
ka took occasion to make a bitter
speech against all the newspapers of
the state that had criticized the legis-
ature, and some of the newspapers
are now quivering with rage because
the senator should dare thus to pre-
sumo. "We find ourselves sympathi-
zing with the senator" says the
Wichita Beacon. "The newspapers
have had a perfect right to express
their opinions of any Kansas Legis-
lature, and some of them have been
rather free in their expression, and, IT.
being the sort of legislature that 1t
is, the expressions have not been COM
plimentary. 1t certainly wouldn't
be fair to deprive the members Of the
legislature of their free born right, in
good taste, to pay their respects to
these newspapers. We have always
noticed that when man gets mad at
newspaper It does him great deal
Of good to relieve his mind on the
subject of his complaint, either in
writing, or in oral expression accom-
panied by suitable gestures.

A. OIL, PROTESTS
AGAINST GAG ORDER
United States Employees at Mare
Island Denied Right to Par :. i.
{. ticipate in Politics. r. e: = J :

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1S.-In its
report to the thirty-fifth annual con.
vention. the A. F. of L. executive
council protests against a ruling Of
the United States civil service COM
mission, In which employees y Of the
Mare Island navy yard. Vallejo, Cal,
are denied the right to take part in
political activities. and if in the fut-
ure, permission to engage In political
activity is desired in specific case,
request therefor shall be forwarded
to the commission. -: -. e
The executive council declares that
the commission has entirely ignored"
the law of August "a, 1912, which
organized labor secured from. the
sixty-second congress as a protest
against the gag orders Of former
Presidents Roosevelt and Taft.
The executive council further says:
''The' civil service commissioners
and department officials have exag-
gerated their own personal import
ance- and the amount Of authority
delegated to them while temporarily
clothed with official power. There
are many evidences that bureaucrcy
Of very distasteful character is
being engrafted upon public and civil
service employees. Many onerous in
dustrial conditions are being intro
duced in the departments, which make
the lot of civil service employees most
unenviable and practically unbearable
for. free citizens, s..
The report, declares it will be ad-
visable if not imperative: to have bills
; introduced in congress which will
clearly define the rights of these
workers, guaranteeing them the right
to organize {now agreed to mega
tively) and. protect them from the
spleen and i'll will of political parti-
sans who are acting as department
chiefs" The executive council also
states that as a result of many COM
plants I'VE are compelled to believe
! that our present civil service system
, needs an entire overhauling, recon-
struction and renovation
