wheat men BALK
They Will Not Stand for an
Eight Hour Day.
Attempt to Enforce 1t Spells
Trouble for Agitat0rs.

Labor organizers in the wheat fields
will encounter some real serious trou-
BILE if they attempt to block the cut
ting of the big Kansas wheat crop, ac-
cording to Judge Preston B. Gillett of
Kingman- In Topeka today. Judge
GilIett said that not only the farmers,
but a large percent of the laborers
would interfere if labor leaders sought
to intimidate workers, dictate wa geS
and hours or interfere with the work.
That there is really a serious danger
of an encounter and violence in event
labor leaders assert themselves. was
the belief of the Kingman Judge In
Kingman county, one of the big wheat
producing counties of Kansas, num-
Der of labor leaders have appeared
among the harvesters. They have
sought to create sentiment in favor
of a $3.50 wage scale and eight hour
days for individual workers.
THE farmers are willing to pay
$3.50 a day for labor right from the
start" said Judge Gillett. But they
will not and cannot stand for the eight
hour day The labor leaders are in
the minority in our county and I be-
Heve that three-fourths of the men
who have come to Kingman county for
the harvest are really honest, law
abiding citizens. They have been idle
for two weeks waiting for the harvest
to begin and caring for these men
has been a serious problem
Threats Have Been Made.
There have been threats that the
harvest would be delayed if the de-
mands of the labor leaders are not
met. l do not really expect trouble.
Yet if an effort to enforce these
threats should be made, there is quite
likely TO be a clash and possible vio-
lence. We have no police forces on
our farms. you know, and the farmers
would most likely handle strike in
their own way.
Il believe that the laborers are in
the main in sympathy with the farm
ers," continued the Judge These
day for their services and will work
from sunrise to sunset The workmen
as well as the farmers would seriously
resent an effort to delay the harvest
and force an eight hour day
Numerous reports of possible trouble
with labor organizers in the wheat
growing districts have reached To-
Deka- In Salina county last week,
iron stakes were found driven in
wheat fields in several places. In
Pratt county a few days ago, a farmer
discharged Iaborer- That night sew
eraI hundred dollars worth of garden
stroyed. The discharged laborer is
now in Jail. Reports of threats to
dynamite and destroy threshing ma
cfainery have also come to Topeka
Judge Gillett believes that any attempt
tn enforce these threats will bring the
labor organizers face to face with a
new brand of trouble and that the
wheat producers may themselves en-
force the laws Sssr--1 = - sassss

SANDER because the latter had called
him a hippopotamus on several occa-

attorney for the defense said to
Miller:

have sued Moore at once, instead of
waiting a year.

WARS ON CARELESS REMARKS
SThey Say" Stories Are Prevented
From Spreading by the Trace
lt-1aek Club.

From Albany, N. T.. Is reported .
Trace-It-Back club. Some men had
been listening to they say" story,
and one suggested that were the story
traced back to its source. not much
Of It would be left. Another pro-
posed to trace It back and see. The
result was so striking, that the men
at once formed themselves into a club
for the purpose of tracing such things
to their source and 90 preventing much
serious mischief from careless and un-
founded statements. The club now
numbers many members.
A club of that sort could find en-
ployment and useful work to do In
every community. Members Of tie
Albany club are exceedingly careful
now about what they say. Just q
hint OF doubt about the matter and
they appoint someone to investigate.
This IL sufhcient to cause the recall
of all that one was not positively sure
about. Rash. hasty talk has been the
cause of untold misery. Il is wise to
make no statement without having
valid reason for believing 1t true. It
would be no bad plan for everyone to
be as careful Of his speech az II .
Trace-It-Back club were going to in
vestigate his statements.

Many os the Men Of Today Have For
gotten How 70 Play; Others
Never Knew.

Commenting ON the statement made
recently by q New York Y. NJ. G. A.
physical culture director that Of the
men he examined many exhibit at
forty the symptoms Of senile break
down proper to seventy, the New York
press, says. editorially:
The directors advice to these men.
TO 60 somewhere and play" II good.
But It would have been better II they
had rsceiyed II and had acted upon, it
80 years ago.
Play looks % easy that most people
assume It comes naturally. II doesn't.
II is lamentable fact that many Per
sons have forgotten how to play. It
IL still sadder that others never
knew.
Inertia isn't play. Play IL initiative.
II means setting out deliberately to do
something. It means doing It with
xest. At It's best It should be competi-
tive. for then. to the average man, the
xest comes naturally.
Now. It IL not easy for man Of
forty, say, to walk into store and
buy q set Of golf clubs, and then 90
out on q link and make a show Of
himself with them. II takes courage
for man Of forty to climb aboard .
rlifeesfte horse and take his chance Of
sticking there.
No. The time to do these things is
In youth. 1t is then that habits Of
wholesome. outdoor living should be
formed. which will endure SO long AZ
haleness is granted one. 1t is then
that the habit Of play should be
formed, which may change in its man
ifestations as life wears on, and adapt
itself to the limitations of advancing
years, yet which will never wear itself
out, but rather increase as the require
ment Of the responsibilities Of life
gives greater opportunity for its en-
joyment.
