Diekey County Farnefs' Picnic al
Egeley Called on

On account Of 4 conflict in date Of
the picnic with several other events
which would interfere with the at
tendance it has been decided by those
in charge not to hold the picnic At the
Edgeley experimental farm this year.
The lateness Of the season and the ur-
gent attention necessary to give the
corn field as result Of the weather
conditions making it difficult for the
farmers to spare the time, makes it
seem advisable not to attempt the pic
mic. 1t is to be hoped, however, that
next year plans can be made early
enough to carry the idea to success
full issue. A visit Of this kind to the
experimental farm at Edgeley would
prove very profitable to every farmer
and he should aim to get there some
way each year.

RIVERDALE FARMERS CLUD
HAS MONSTER PICNIC

The Riverdale Farmers Club had a
picnic June 18th at the Alex. Harrison
farm. The weather was no. of the
usual picnic order, but it takes more
than cold rainy day to keep some
folks at home. 1t was originally in
tended to have the picnic in the grove
but it was trifle too damp under the
trees, so long table was knocked to-
gether and put in the buggy shed, hot
coffee substituted for lemonade, and
everyone gladly did his share in dis
posing of the bountiful dinner.
After dinner some of the more ven
turesome put on all the wraps they
could find and went out to witness the
married men-bache, ball game.
Guy Lefingwell and Henry Dacker
pitched. The married men managed
to win score in the fifth inning, so
they decided it was too cold to play
any longer. Credit should be given
the umpire, Bunk Roberts, for the
way he and his eight or nine assist
ants umpired the game.
Races of all kinds were indulged in,
and several freezers Of ice cream
were emptied.
Every good thing must have an end,
however, so about six the crowd COM
menced to break up. There were
about seventy-five present, and every
one felt it had been 4 day well spent
in getting better acquainted with each
other.

Where there's trouble, there's where work s for

POLITICAL PARTIES
IN The DISCARD
CALIFORNIA TAKES LEAD n
PROGRESSIVE LEGISLATION
Cilson Gardner, the Crest Washin0bea
CofFsspon1enA lnterviews Cev.
johnson on Subject
By Ci,pon Gardner

Sacramento, Cel., June Z3-lt u
goodbye to al political parties in
California. Pretty soon there viii b
no Republican, no. Democrat, no So
cialist, no Progressive and no Prohibi-
zionist parties.
So far rs state politics are concern
ed all party labels are to be wiped out
by law. The legislature has passed
the law and Gov. johnson has signed
It, and after the people have voted on
It 1t referendum, the rooster and the
elephant will be abolished.
The law says that no party desig-
nations shall be printed on the ballot.
Gov. johnson says:
"There is no reason for electing q
governor Of California because he b.
longs to one or the other Of the big or
the little political parties. The election
Of honest men for the state board Of
control is not q matter Of Republican
or Democratic party faith. John Smith
and John Jones are candidates and
the real issue is whether Smith or
Jones would make the better governor.
"Take the question Of managing the
states prisons, Of working the prison.
ers on the roads, is that matter On
which = Republican thinks one way
and q Progressive another? Take the
minimum wage law, the workman's
compensation net, the eight hour Law,
woman's suffrage, the property quail
acation for jurors, the collection Of
the laborer's wages. Do people divide
on these questions on the party lines
Absurd"
"How about the national and presi-
Dental party names?"
$50 far as national elections are
concerned Of course the party will
have to continue. At least it will have
to for the present"
This law abolishing party designa-
tions has furnished a complete answer
in the state Of California to the ques-
ton: "Will the Progressives 60 back
to the Republican party?" There is
no Republican party in the state-at
least there will be none when this Law
goes into effect-so there will be no
place for Progressives to Ego back
How much disposition there might
be to go back" is indicated in the
vote last November when Fredericks
who was Republican candidate for
governor, polled 271 800 votes against
ACC, ,495 votes for johnson.
The great state of California more
than any state in the union has shaken
off old political traditions. Its people
are thoroughly converted to the pro-
position of peoples rue as opposed to
rule by special privilege and by the
agents of selfish private interests
They are militant and in the big game
of electing president or choosing a
congress they can he relied upon to
move along the lines of political lib
erty as they have learned it in the five
years experience with their Progress
sive governor, Hiram w. johnson.
