Farmers and
DudeletS

"Oh, he's just farmer out here
in the country"
We stood on a street corner the
other day and heard that remark
passed by one of the brilliant"
young masculine striplings of our
town as he "bummed" the max
ings from a friend.
The farmer, to be sure, was
just a farmer "out here in the
country" He wore overalls and
drove his wrgon into town, but at
home his automobile rested snug
ly in the garage. He owns one
of the most valuable farms in this
whole section of the state. His
home life is ideal and his wife
and children have everything
they desire. His simple word is
as good as his check, and his
check would be honored for a sum
that might stagger you.
He is a man, a real man, a man
whom other men acknowledge to
be a man among men, even if he
is lust a farmer out here in the
country"
But what of the stripping, what
of the dudelet?
He is just one of that numerous
class who always know every.
thing and never do anything,
who amount to nothing and are
worth less. He is just dudelet,
and it is doubtful if he ever at
tains to the dignity" of being a
real dude.
Yes, he is lust a farmer out
here in the country" but he is
our friend, he is everybody's
friend, and time may prove him
to be the friend in need" of the
poor, vapid, brainless dudelet.
We need a thousand more just
like him-this man who is Just a
farmer out here in the country"
and whom we are proud to know
as our friend.
Poor, deluded dudelet! May he
never be worse!

SALT LAKE CITY, October L
Charles Warren Fairbanks, Republican
nominee for the Vice Presidency,
charged President Wilson with personal
responsibility. for the Democratic
squandering of the public funds in the
"pork barrel" appropriations passed
by the present congress. The Vice
Presidential candidate, in this opening
speech of his tour, met with a hearty
reception, great crowd appearing to
hear him explain the issues OF the cam
paign. {...i ol
Mr.. Fairbanks charged the Demo.
cratic party with an utter disregard
of its platform pledge Of an economical
{ and businesslike administration. In.
stead of paying some regard for this
pledge, solemnly given to the people of
the nation in the Baltimore platform,
the Democratic party, he said, had in

public funds without parallel in the

ANNOUNCEMENT SURPRISING

The announcement Of the Teutonic
victory in the Hermannstadt region
was the first intimation that General
Won Falkenhayn,, former chief Of the
German general staff has been assigned
TO an active command on any of the
fronts. Won Falkenhayn was consider
ed one Of the strongest and most promi-
nent of all the Kaiser 3 commanders,
and his removal from the/supreme com
mand under the War Lord himself, and
the appointment of Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg, to succeed him, caused a
sensation among the warning powers
and neutrals as well as in Germany.
The attack Of the German forces In
the Transylvanian Alps and their vic
tory there threatens to put the Ru-
manians between two fires, Won Mack.
sensen in the Dobrudja district across
the Danube, and Won Falkenhayn In
front of them. Incidentally il makes
vastly more difficult the Russian plan
of advance against Bulgaria by way Of
Rumania, for ii means that unless the
Rumanians are reformed and steadied
the Russian flank would be exposed.
The pinching out process on the
Somme front Is apparently continuing
under handicaps Of bad weather in ad,
dition to all the other difficulties the
Allies have to encounter. The lines of
the attackers are now apparently
Strengthened out into fairly regular
curve from the vicinity Of Thepval to
the French position at Bouchavesnes
where General Foch is threatening the
approaches to Peronne. 49, = NsHr
