A SOCIAL SUCCESS

One of the most successful dan
ces given here for some time was
the Hard Times party given by
Miss Zoe Gould for the benefit OF
the school. Many of the costumes
were typically suggestive OF the
occasion. Most of the guests
partook of the contents OF well"
filled baskets, and generous sums
were paid for the same when they
were auctioned off by Mr.. Elisha
dickinson. Fines were imposed
on several gentlemen who were
too nicely dressed. The music
was very good and the dancers
fingered till the wee small hours
IA very neat sum was realized, and
the generous manner in. which
parents, patrons of the school, and
the community in general re-
sponded is much appreciated by
/ all concerned in educational al
| fairs.
Several members of the order OF
Todd Fellows motored to 4ering-

Continued From Last Week.

But the privilege Of double and
treble interest is not the only power
possessed by the national banks. The
mower TO initiate or contract the mon,
CIV of the country at will is a greater
graft yet The price OF products is
governed mainly by two factors. the
supply and demand and the amount
Of money in circulation. The bank
ing fraternity do not want too much
money in circulation or that might
not only cut the interest charge but
enable the borrower by reason Of bet
fer prices to get out of debt. The
game as played is to get the people
i'm debt by boom stories and then
contract the money in circulation by
refusing loans until they can fore
close their mortgage The ideal
money from a capitalist standpoint
is national bank notes. They pre-
TEND to claim some sanctity in regard
10 gold but when gold gets too plenti-
fll then they begin to have grave
fears of initiation. When the sold Of
Europe began to flow into this coun-
try TO buy war supplies the bankers
had grave fears When the old coun-
tries proposed bonds instead of gold
to pay for supplies the great finan-
ciers hailed it with great JOY. And
those bonds only draw five per cent
interest. There is only one fear in
the minds Of those capitalists and
that is of reputation. The debt-bur-
dened people of those foreign coun-
tries may revolt and repudiate the
bonds. Hence we must have a large
army and navy ready to whip them.
Rural credits from the Washington
Grange standpoint does not mean
simply farm loans for a lower rate OF
interest for the farmer alone. as do
al the % bills introduced into Con
sress. It means taking the power to
issue, initiate or contract at will from
private corporations and putting all
power into the hands OF the whole
people. Il means the overthrow of
the national banks. It means the ov-
erthrow Of usury. II means the over
throw of monopolies and trusts of
all kinds 1t means the cooperative

A RESOLUTION
Offered at the Irrigation Institute at
North Yakima, Wash. Jan. 70, 1919,
by Walter Price.

Whereas, the funds for reclamation
prospects are limited 10 the land sales
and fees in each state. and are made
Quale 10 supply the necessary money
for projects now ready and waiting.
Therefore. be it resolved. that this
Irrigation Institute assembled at
North Yakima. Washington. this 18th
day OF January. 1916, do recommend
that for the purpose of always having
sufficient funds for reclamation and
drainage purposes that the United
States accept 40-year bonds of Irriga-
ton and Drainage Districts, and issue
legal tender currency, receivable for
all debts, public and private, at one
per cent interest, payable annually to-
gether with a graduated installment
Of the principal and redeemable by
taxes levied on the lands of said dis
tricts only, and when so redeemed
to be retired from circulation.

1T is too early TO criticize the pro,
posed bill when none of us have read
1t. But | am like Patrick Henry.
Judging the future by the past. The
people are being deceived and robbed
continually. When they raise an up
roar they are treated like the man
treated his pack of hungry dogs when
upbraided for not feeding them. OPP
ening the door he flung a bone to the
bowling flock, and shouted, There.
consarn We, bust yourselves.
The money for reclamation projects
is limited to the amount of the funds
received from land sales and fees in
each state. We who are in the present
projects have a special privilege
which cannot be extended much fur
Their. Twenty years to pay and no
interest to pay has been found neces.
use our present system of organized
and the postoffice department and
government; state, county and city.
sary for the success of reclamation
projects.
The Washington State Grange pro.
poses that the irrigation districts pay
one per cent in the future-that is.
those organized in the future. be-
lieve resolutions will be introduced
here at this meeting asking the L. S.
government to guarantee forty year
bonds. Why not ISSUE legal tender
currency on the bonds at one per
cent interest per annum and save the
people three per cent or more? BY
all means We should not ask the L.
S. government to guarantee the bonds
for private corporations as has been
done for the railroad corporations in
the past. The day for subsidies or
guarantees TO private corporations has
passed.
