THE RURAL PRESS
The Local Paper a Most Useful
Agency on the Farm--The Press,
Pulpit and School Trinity Of
Influence That Must Be
Utilized In Building
Agriculture.
BY Peter Radford
Lecturer NatIonaI E'armers. union


A broad campaign OF publicity on
the subject OF rural life is needed In
this state today to bring the problems
OF the farmers to the forefront. The
city problems are blazoned upon the
front pages OF the metropolitan dali
les and echoed in the country press,
but the troubles OF the farmers are
seldom told. except by those who
seek to profit by the story, and the
glitter OF the package ofttimes OBJ
scures the substance A searching in
vestigation into the needs Of the
farmers will reveal many inherent de
fects In our economic system that can
be easily remedied when properly un
derstood and illuminated by the pow.
er of the press.
The rural press, the pulpit and the
school are a trinity of powerful In
fiuences that the farmer must utilize
to their fullest capacity before he can
occupy commanding position in pub
lie affairs. These gigantic agencies are
organized in every rural community
and only await the patronage and CO
operation of the farmers to fuily de-
veiop their energy and usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best interests of their respective
communities. Their work Is to build
and their object is to serve. They
prosper only through the development
and prosperity of the community
Every farmer in this state should
subscribe for the local paper, as well
as farm periodicals and such other
publications as he may find profitable,
but he should by all means subscribe
for his local paper and no home
should be without 1t. The local paper
Is part of the community life and the
editor understands the farmers prob
lens. It is the local press that will
study the local problems and through
Its columns deal with subjects of most
vital Importance TO local life of the
community.

a view of meeting conditions sure to

Mr.. Borah, it is true, comes from Ida

as he hopes and expects, the republi-

nor Senator Weeks of Massachusetts,

THE VOICE OF LINCOLN.

The words of Abraham Lincoln, ut
tered to his party in 1856, are singu-
larly applicable to the republican par
ty today. 1t was following the cleo
ton of Buchanan, who was successful
through the division of those who OPP
posed slavery and whose combined
vote was far in excess of the vote re
ceived by Buchanan. Mr.. Lincoln APP
pealed for unity of action by those
who were striving for the same end in
this language:
"All Of us who did not vote for Mr..
Buchanan, taken together are ma
jority of four hundred thousand But
in the late contest we We're divided
between Fremont and Fillmore Can
we not come together for the future?
Let every one who really believes and
Is resolved that free society is not and
shall not be failure, and who can
conscientiously declare that In the last
contest he has done only what he
thought best-let every such one have
charity to believe that every other one
can say as much. Thus let bygones be
bygones; let past differences as moth
ing be- and with steady eye on the
real issue let us reinaugurate the good
old central idea of the republic. We
can do It,"
The same condition confronts the
republican party today, Passing the
vote of minor parties. those who did
not vote for Mr.. Wilson and who are
normally republicans represent ma
jority of nearly two million Follow
ing the advice of the greatest of all
republicans, let every one who really
believes in the principles and policies
of the republican party and who acted
conscientiously in the last national
contest, be charitable enough to con-
cede equally sincere motives to every
other, forgetting past differences and
resolved to unite in restoring to con-
troll of the government that party I'M

NORTH SHOULD CONFER.
(Lewiston Journall

lLeWlSt0n Joufnal)
There seems to be general desire
on the part of north Idaho republicans
to hold conference and adopt a plan
which will unite the north for some
candidate for governor. Such con-
ference should be held Who should
call 1t and where and when should It
meet are points to be determined.
Since the Poeatello conference in
which few south Idaho republican
leaders gathered and chose a candi-
date for governor there has been a
strong feeling that north Idaho musr
hold conference but that it must
represent the republicans and not
few leaders.
So far as has been noted there is no
opposition to this in north Idaho
though there are some in south Idaho
who look with strong disfavor on a
meeting of this kind in the north.
1t is suggested by the orofno Re-
publican that such a conference be
called to meet in Lewiston during the
coming stock show which lasts No
yember 20 to December 4. Such a date
and place would give those who attend
the advantage of the reduced rates
Perhaps some other place and time
would be better but the meeting ought
to be held
Three or four men in the north are
considered for the republican nomina-
ton for governor. No one of them
wants any meeting held in the inter
est of any other candidate but neither
does either of them want to be nomin-
ated and defeated because the north
fails to unite. This is what the south
ern candidates and their particular
supporters hope will happen though
there are thousands of republicans in
the south who are sincere in saving
they will support a northern man If
the north unites.

Can the tariff be taken out of poll

political issue in 1896 1t is "out of

weight of public opinion against it.
The tariff is the greatest and the
most persistent political issue this ma
ton has had to deal with, at least dur
ing the last forty years. And 1t is so
first, because of its tremendous i'm
portance. and, second because public
opinion is SO radically and so nearly
equally divided. As long as this con-
dition exists the tariff will continue to
be, and must continue to be, politi-

changing majority of the people, be-
