DO you RAISE OR MAKE THINGS?

Under the above caption the Dallas
Dispatch gives utterance to very
able editorial reciting some Of the
great things President Wilson has &C
complished, how he has saved the
country from loss In many ways, from
wars, from disasters, and has success
fully guided them through difficulties
which might easily have wrecked our
ship Of state had the wheel been in
less skillful and less trustworthy
hands. The article Is OF especial in.
terest to the farmers as well as to all
others and the Eagle gives It space as
follows:
'In two instances at least President
Wilson has plainly saved the produc.
ers Of this country, particularly the
farmers, from great disaster, and they
owe their present prosperity to him
very largely.
First, he has kept the country out
of war with any foreign nation. In
the matters OF Mexican raids and the
early submarine warfare 1t would have
been easy for America to join In the
world madness. But war In either
case would have meant these things
beyond denial by anybody:
loss of thousands and thousands
OF lives, waste OF hundreds Of millions
OF property. great suffering by the
poor, absolute reversal of the present
condition of prosperity.
"The price Of war is blood, waste,
loss. human suffering. nothing else.
Empty dinner pals and market
baskets. full cemeteries, widows
weeds, orphans loneliness, ruined
homes, wrecked churches and school
houses, lean crops. closed shops, rot

war bill.

PROGRESSIVE FARMERS.

The Indianapolis News says: The
farmer OF twenty-five years ago would
probably confess to some bewilder.
ment were he to attend the sessions
Of the Farmers National Congress
now assembled in this city. He would
hear, to begin with, some technical
discussions which, In his own day and
age, he usually scoffed at as being the
products OF theory rather than OF ex.
perience. But he would observe that
the farmer delegates OF the present
time not only listen attentively to
what the scientists have TO say. but
what Is more to the point, understand
thoroughly what they are talking
about. lie would observe, too, from
the testimony of the practical tillers
of the soil, that theory and practice
nowadays are no longer as far apart
as they were in days not yet so re-
mote that they cannot be readily re-
called.

eigner. might still have enjoyed their
war prosperity but it would have
been at the expense Of the American
people. The American farmer would
not have got more for his products
and he would have paid much more
for his clothes, his tools, his hardware
and lumber, much more for all of his
necessities. The same condition would
have prevailed had we warred on
Mexico.
Instead Of war, with its slaughter,
waste and hard grinding Of those who
have comparatively little, the produc-
ers have had peace and prosperity.
The farmer, instead of following COT
fins to cemeteries, has been following
big loads Of fine crops to market. The
city workman, instead Of taking his
fellow by the throat to fight him for
work, has had jobs thrust upon him.
The mother has not tossed at night in
fear for her boys life. No orphans
have raised their innocent hands to
Woodrow Wilson and cried, Where is
our father? The only ruins Of church,
school house, library or cottage are
those that have been carted off to
make way for better ones. America
can look God in the face and honestly
say that she has not murdered for
gain, for vengeance, or in rage.
But there are few, bloodthirsty
or dollar-drunk few, who shout that
Woodrow Wilson's peace is tainted
with loss OF national honor, prestige
and respect among the nations. The
charge is disreputable, but how does
the reader OF this feel about the mat
ter?
Woodrow Wilson has kept this ma
ton at peace. Does the reader feel
any loss Of national honor or prestige?
Would he pay the awful price Of war
for the respect of mad Europe, which
respects not alien territory or rights,
nor written treaties, nor civilization,
nor the houses Of the Lord, nor the ]
lives of innocent, helpless women and
children?
1.-THE second instance In which the |
President saved the farmers and other
producers from catastrophe was In the
hurried passage Of the Adamson g.
hour measure. At the close Of the har.
vest season calamity-the great ,
railroad strike-threaten to tie up
the transportation facilities OF the
whole country. The farmers crops |
would have rotted in their barns and
bins. The factory hand would have
found his prosperity, war or otherwise,
killed. We would have had cities full
of starving babies and grown-ups, dy-
ing because they couldn't get the plen-
ty that had been harvested. We would
likely have had civil war. We would
surely have deserved the Almighty's
curse for stupidity denying ourselves
when He had furnished an abundance
for all. The millions OF Chicago, Co
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indian
apolis and all the other great munich
palities fed by railroad transportation
would have gone gaunt and hungry or
gnawing on husks, while the farmers
of regions adjacent thereto, the grand
est agricultural people on earth, would
have had to sit and watch their years
rot.

acted. He horned through Congress

New Russian Oil Fields.

A newly verified Russian oil field,
with an area of about 10000 square
miles, or about twice the size of the
New England states, now energies
strangely from mass of explorers
data to suggest pretty strongly that
current pessimism over the decreasing
output of the oil fields Of the Caucasus
is not well justified. This new field,
according to Russia, the monthly organ
Of r. Martens & Co., Is located in the
Ural province, begins at the Caspian
sea, taking fanlike shape to the north
as far as the town of Alexandrovsky
Gal, runs nearly due east to the town
Of Temir and from there in southerly
and southwesterly directions, following
the Emba river to the Caspian sea
again. Although an attempt was made
by the government to encourage the
commercial exploration Of this coun-
try as far back as 1899, no serious de-
velopment work had been done until a
very short time ago. Russia more now
than ever, is feeling effects of the high
prices of petroleum and its absolute
necessity has led to the discovery of
these tields.-Wall Street Journal.
