Wilson Administration Has
Been Big Boon to Farmers,
BACKYARD Glance ReueaLs

In no equal space of time in the
as much been accomplished in a
legislative and administrative way
for the benefit OF the farmer as has
been done during the Wilson admin
istration. A simple review of its
record demonstrates beyond ques-
ton the fact
Financial and Commercial.
The rural credits law, inaugu-
rated and enacted by the Wilson ad-
ministration, affords TO the farmers
of the country equal facilities in the
matter Of borrowing money as are
afforded to other business men. Not
only VIII they be able To borrow
money as readily as others. but on
the same terms. and the lowering Of
the interest rates and the cutting
out Of commissions and expenses
which result from this law, will an
nually save hundreds Of millions of
dollars TO the farmers Of the nation.
This law alone merits for the Wilson
administration the cordial support
and approval Of all farmers and
farm owners.
This sentence from Pres't Wilson :
speech Of acceptance states only an
accomplished fact:
''FOr the farmers of the country
we have virtually created CONNER
cial credit, by means of the federal
reserve law and the rural credit law.
They now have the same standing
as other business men in the money
market"
The federal reserve act helped a
great deal the farmer, along with all
other business men. by making a
market for hundreds OF millions OF
dollars worth of farm mortgages
and negotiable paper based on live
stock. Further, it will be recalled
how promptly the secretary of the
treasury in this administration fur
nished all the money needed and at
a low rate, 10 move the crops to
market.
The Wilson shipping or merchant
marine law means not only assured
transportation To foreign countries.
free from foreign control or inter
ference. but lower rates of freight
to the farmer for the tremendous
tonnage of agricultural products he
ships 10 nations abroad.

In the revision of the tariff in the
Wilson administration very careful
attention was given to the needs and
rights OF the farmer and his special
interests cared for. On the free list
are placed agricultural tools. imple-
ments and machinery and animals
imported for breeding purposes,
while the tariff was lowered on other
articles he has to purchase.
A division of markets and rural
organization has been created 10

to the farmers as TO the best methods
Of transportation. storage, market
ing and distribution of agricultural
products. How often have farmers
seen their products rotting in cellars
or barns. or used in Improbable
ways, when there was a crying need
in many places for those very things;
or have seen markets glutted until
fruits rotted in warehouses or COM
mission houses, or sold for less than
storage charges or even were given
away, when at the same time other
markets were in want of those very
products? Such mistakes, such
waste, such loss need never occur
again. Information of the needs of
the various markets are at the farm
er's command. as we'll as instruc-

There is no other season quite the
peer of spring in all her charm, a
time the cherry trees are white and
honeybees begin to swarm. A wistful
fragrance fills the air, the nights are
beautiful and still. The whipporwills
begin to pair and sing duets upon the
hill. The lusty tomcat takes his turn
at doing what he can for art. The
season is a fine concern, and was
successful from the start. Or come
what will, or war or peace, or what
soever one suppose, the charm of
spring will never cease, but keep on
keeping to the close. The temporary
things are those which man has fash
ioned for himself, the things which
other men oppose for meanness, poll
tics or pelf. Or kaiser, king, or what
you will, he never shall deny US this
the poets fire, the lovers thrill, the
very vernal seasons bliss. Or wheth-
er singing in a loft or strumming on
a golden Lutte, the music still is sweet
and soft, the singers lips are never
mute Or whether love in marble
halls, or love the cook requites the
cop, it still is one Of those sweet
thralls which nothing temporal can
stop.

WILSON MUST NAME BORDER
TRAITORS SENATOR FALL
SAYS
Issues Vigorous Answer to Presidents
Charge of Plot to Cause Inter-
yention

FL Paso, Texas, March Ex-senator
A. b. Fall of New Mexico has issued a
vigorous reply to President Wilson's
charge that conspiracy exists along
the border to bring about Intervention
and TO misrepresent conditions. He
said:
1T is the presidents duty to the peo-
pie of the United States to make
known the names of these traitors,
who are giving publicity to rumors
for the purpose Of bringing about war.
Il think also the president should
have been forced by public opinion on
on his recent tour to give facts to the
people instead of uttering hysterical
and mysterious statements about The
imminence of war for political ef-
feet.
"The statements he did make would
have, in my judgment, resulted in the
severance of relations with one Of the
great European powers if it had not
been for the much discussed McLemore
resolution. The agitation caused by
this resolution in Congress prevented
a war, which the president, in my
Judgment, was ready to enter upon
"He will not be allowed, so far as l
am concerned, to misrepresent the
people Of the border by unfounded
statements, unless he is prepared to
give the sources Of his information.
He recently refused to give the SEN
ate information as to why he recog-
nized Carranza. He refused to give
publicity to the report Of Duvall West
possibly because West is honest, and
possibly because the report did not
bear out previous statements made by
the president about Mexico. He re-
fused to give publicity to the report
of the Brazilian minister in Mexico
City. The only intimation furnished
the Senate as TO why he recognized
Carranza was contained in documents
prepared by Arredondo, and over the
signature of both Arredondo and Car
rama.
81 make the statement that had the
report of Duvall West, the Red Cross
and the Brazilian minister been given
publicity, the people of the United
States would not, any more than /,
have been able to understand what
interests brought about the recogni-
ton of Carranza.
"The people of the border are just
as honest and just as sane as those
temporarily conducting the affairs of
this government. Wilson cannot in
suit them because he happens to be a
minority president Of the United
States"

in trying to hold congress where the
president can lay his hand on it.
China will be republic from the LIST
to the 10Th; monarchy from the 18th
to the 22d, and republic again from
that time on. There will be no eclipses
during the month. The total eclipse
of the sun on February 3rd was so
poorly attended because Of the war
and the absence of any great interest
in such things that it has been de-
cided not to have any more astronom-
ical phenomen until July IA, when
there will be a partial eclipse of the
moon. There will be Il good many
people running for the presidential
nominations in a quiet way, but no
body will put up so much dust that it
cannot be laid by an April shower.
Then May will show her smiling face
Upon the stirring scenes,
And some good man shall set the pace
In getting up the screens.

Capitol Correspondence


Those whose reading is confined to
the Denver dailies must have come to
the conclusion that the republicans Of
this city have been thrown into "a
panic by the attempt of Mr. Speer to
again become mayor. This is very
far from being the case. The repub-
licans would much have preferred not
to have had a city campaign this
spring, believing that state and ma
tional issues would furnish all the
political excitement necessary for ono
year. But as for fearing Mr.. Speer-
there is nothing to it.
Mr.. Speer has been holding Office
almost continuously ever since he
came to Colorado thirty years ago,
and yet he was never honestly elected
to an office in his life. Most Of tho
positions he has filled have been ap-
pointive. Both times he ran for may
or he had absolute control Of the
election commission and of the fire
and police board. He had the support
Of all the utility corporations and Of
the saloon and gambling element. In
his first campaign the same ballot
box stuffing was indulged in that led
to the resignation Of Mr.. Shafroth to
his seat in congress, and to the as
sumption by Mr.. Speer Of all Of the
campaign expenses Of his opponent,
Mr.. Springer, if he would refrain
from making a contest. In his sec
ond campaign, with the same influence
behind him, on the face of the returns
he received a plurality Of some 1900
votes over Mr.. Phelps, but no well
informed man doubts that there were
at least 5000 fraudulent votes cast
for him.
This year the fire AMI police de-
partments are controlled by republi-
cans, and there will be no repeating
or ballot box stuffing. The election
commission is republican and there
will be no juggling Of returns by the
election officials. At least two OF the
big utility corporations arc out Of
politics and the others realize that
they are being kept tab upon and that
the public will not stand for anything
raw from them.
Under these circumstances, the re-
publicans welcome the opportunity TO
retire Mr.. Speer permanently from
public life. In this praiseworthy ef-
fort they will be helped by Mr. Pat
terson and his followers who rejoice
at the opportunity to get even for the
knitting their ticket received in the
fall Of 1914.
No man stands higher in the carl-
munity than Mr.. w. w. Booth, whom
the republicans have selected 90 head
their ticket. He has been state SEN
ator, a member Of the board Of pub
lie works, and mayor Of the Highlands
before that suburb was consolidated
with Denver. He is the western man
ager of the Equitable Insurance COM
pany, and member Of the Executive
Committe of the Anti-Saloon league
He is also prominent in Christian
Science circles, having been at one
time the Reader in their most prom
inent church. And by the way, Mr.
Speer is very friendly to this church,
having presided at recent big meet
ing at the Auditorium when one Of
their leading orators from the east
was the speaker.

April was so called from the Greek
name for Venus the Roman goddess of
love and beauty. Caesar thought the
pacifists should have one month in the
year to show what they could do, and
he gave them this one. They accord
ingly named it for Venus, who seems
to have been a woman very much like
Jane Adams. She loved peace and
quiet, and her husband, Vulcan, in
vented the well-known domestic ex-
pedient of leaving his shoes out on
the porch. Caesars agreement with
the pacifists was that he would make
his regular spring drive in March,
and then withdraw his army from the
field. The first day Of April, or the
day upon which the pacifists assem-
blcd to determine what should be done
to hold the empire intact, was there
fore called All-Fools' day. Caesar dis
couraged this ridicule of a large and
respectable element in Rome, but
when he went to the Forum to hear
what the pacifists had to say he had
often to withdraw the portierrcs on
the royal box to keep those good peo-
pie from seeing him laugh. After try
ing through a period of years to
soothe the savage beast with music
and other things, the pacifists finally
got the empire into such a mess on its
frontier that Caesar publicly denounc-
1 -. .ras
ionaries and milksops. This infuriat-
cd them, and when he left the hall
Brutus, Casca and other leading pac-
fists set upon him with knives and
assassinated him. Thus fell Caesar,
Of whom Antony said that he carried
the day but unfortunately did not
carry a knife.
