TRUCK GROWERS
 ASSOCIATION MEETS

The Arcadia Truck Growers Asso- Iciation met in Arcadia yesterday and elected the following officers. H. T. Bryson, president; B. T. Ward, sec retary; Harry Morton, Ben Phillips and J. U. Brown directors.
 This association will have q mem bership of something over 200 mem- bers, all progressive farmers and will plant between 250 and 300 acres in cantaloupes, watermelons and rad ishes. This is one of the strongest associations on the Prescott & North western railroad and bids fair to be one of the best. This association is doing much good in the way of en- couraging the raising of diversified crops and all progressive farmers who wish to depart from the one crop sys- tenn should join these associations or organize others in their communities. This is the only means of keeping the price of cotton up.

GOVernOr.
James A. Peterson of MINNEAPOLIS
is a candidate for the Republican
Nomination for Lieut.. Governor. He
is native Of Wisconsin and a law
yer of recognized ability. He has
practiced law in Minneapolis nearly 80
years. Mr.. Peterson has always
shown his friendship for the Negro
race. He has not objected to them
residing in respectable localities if
they are respectable.
He does not believe in segrega-
ton or racial discrimination, and is an
advocate for Equal rights for ALL"
Atty Peterson was one of the cam
didates for Governor in 1914 He did
not get the nomination, but supported
Hon. w. E. Lee, the nominee of the
Republican party. He recently with
drew from the field of candidates for
Governor, and sought the position of
Lieut.. Gov This is a most important
position, requiring executive ability
and integrity. Ex. Gov. Eberhart and
our present Gov. Burnquist, were
called to the executive chair to fill
unexpired terms, and it is important
that the people of Minnesota elect
as Lieut.. Governor a man, able to
fill the highest office.
Hon. James A. Peterson is the
logical candidate for the position he
seeks. He knows the resources,
needs, and opportunities of Mime
sofa and as presiding officer of the
Senate; he would maintain, that har-
monious organization necessary for
the advancement of Minnesota's in
terests, regardless of party lines,
mindful Of the progress of our great
State and his duty as a citizen.

GO still they sleep,
~ Beneath the verdure deep,
On bill, on vale, by brook and lonely
farm!
A scattered army they
Until the day
The bugles Of the angels sound alarm
And they awake for the last reveille.
By ford and sea,
On grassy mounds, abounds
A host of fluttering flags that mark
The soldiers grave.
How brave their colors bright
But who can tell
How each stern hero feIla
On sea, on land,
We understand they died,
But Of their dying agony
We may not know or see
In what heroic way they breathed their
last,
How sped their choking breath
When Death
Folded his arms about.
Their dying eyes gazed on the foe,
And, 10,
They slept,
Unknowing that the day was won or lost
Amid the fray they fell.
And Israel
Wept at the sight
And gave them night and rest.
They dwell in silent camps.
The damps
And dews weep Ger their mound.
With us they live
And give
Joy at their victory.
We grieve, but honor;
Weep, but praise,
And raise
A shaft In memory eternal
For q nations sons
Who by their guns
Fought and In fighting died.
They died to save,
And but their grave
Is left to us, the living,
We who bow
And place a chaplet on each brow.

From the Department of the Pres,
National Association of Colored
Women's Clubs.
Easily, the greatest forward race
movement of the age is the National
Association of Colored Women's
Clubs, and the leading spirit among
them the President; Mrs. Booker T.
Washington. Emerging from the
gloom which has recently enveloped
her, she has apparently re-consecra-
ted her. life to the uplift of the race,
and by her helpful messages of encour-
agement to club leaders all all over
the country is inspiring officers, de-
partment heads and members to a
greater activity than ever before been
evinced in the work.
The next Biennial will be held at
Baltimore, Nd, in August. Mrs.
Washington presiding.
This meeting bids fair to be the
most interesting in the history of the
Association. The meeting in 1912 at
Hampton was intensely interesting
and inspiring; that at Wilberforce in
1914 was wonderful and far reaching
in its effects - wonderful group of
women, showing remarkable insight
in the philosophy of life and demon
strating a constructive ability which
portends wonderful results in the next
few years.
"On to Baltimore" is the slogan of
every race organization of women,
and where the women are the men
will likewise be found.
BY courtesy of the editor ! shall
from time to time issue information
through the columns of this paper,
relative to the great Biennial at Bal
timore in August.
