viding Federation criticisms of the
campaign of eastern women aboard the
Golden Special" was presented, tact

1T was certainly the tightest place
/ have ever been in" said Mrs. Cast.
ner Friday morning as she left for The
Dslles to attend the Congress of Moth
ers in session there. eff the resolution

WHERE DOES THE
FARMER COME IN?
From the Minneapolis Tribune,

tFr0m the Minneapolis Tribune)
When "Tama jim" Wilson, that
hard-headed son of Scotland, says any
thing about the American farmer, the
men of the soil are quite likely to take
notice. He was 80 years old a month
or SO ago. He began farming So years
ago. He was in the cabinet of three
presidents s-McKinley, Roosevelt and
Taft-as secretary of Agriculture. 1t
is fair to presume that one of his years
has no ambition to get back into the
harness of public life. 1t also is fair
to presume that he speaks as an unbi-
ased American citizen when he de-
clares that upon the farmers of this
country will fall the great burden of
paying the $50. 600, 900 bill which Presi-
dent Wilson and his servile congress
have passed along to the people with
the Adamson law.
The former cabinet member says that
the farmer is willing to take his share
of any fair burden, but adds that he
will get good deal more than is com.
ing to him in the matter of bill paying
as result of the operation of the
Adamson act. The railways will get
the $50, 100000 from the shippers, he
says. and the farmers constitute ma
jority Of the shippers. The man who
tills the soil will 60 down in his pock-
cts to help pay ten hours wages for
eight hours work for that fifth of the
railroad employees who are already re-
ceiving much higher wages than the
other four-fifths. He will work from
sunrise to sunset. No eight hours
limit for the farmer!
''The farmers" said MIR. Wilson,
"are unorganized, unable to restrict
their labor to eight hours a day, obliged
to sell the product of their labor at
prices fixed by the ordinary influence
Of supply and demand. 1t is entirely
antagonistic to their interests to have
small group of men employed by the
railroads allowed 10 fix their pay for
carrying the product of the country at
the cost of the producers and consum-
ers."
To other classes besides the farmers
is coming home the true import of the
Adamson law and the manner of its
enactment. The electorate is learning
that the measure does not test high in
human welfare ingredients, but that it
does test big in political chicanery.

French fortress of Belmont and also
must have an independent Poland.
Germany must develop and pro.
tect agricultural resources to avoid be-

She must consider her international
