OBSERVATIONS
Opinions of Other People. on
Various Subjects.

Editor Sheaf:
In your account Of the patriotic
meeting held in the High School at
Warren, April 10Th, you state that Mr..
Olson had it figured out that the adopt
eel citizen owes more to this country
than anyone born here In this I do
not agree. That we owe, allegiance
and fidelity, obedience to law, and to
fight for the country, if necessary, /
fully agree to, but that my debt is
greater than the debt of the one born
here, | am not willing to admit today.
for one, came here at the age of IS.
looking for work and ready to spend
my years of usefulness in this country,
ready to obey the laws, ready to fight
for it, willing to pay all taxes asked,
for the balance of my life, and to do
my duty as good citizen. The old
country brought me up and educated
me when young and unuseful: thus ac-
cording to my figures in my account
with this land Of my choice, find the
balance in my favor. 1t may be differ
ent in Mr.. Olson's case. Maybe he re-
ceived his education and bringing up
here from the schools of this land, and
thus owes much more than the
emigrant that came here to work, not
to run peanut stand or peddle "hot
tOmales".

omy, and realizing sense of their pa.
triotic duty to the best government
under which any man ever lived, es.
pecially in this time of it's extremity
when it's very existence is threatened.
In a few months the United States
will have an army of two million mell
to feed and clothe. This means that
our government will be by far the best
customer the farmers Of America will
have. The great bulk of this bond
money will be spent right here at home
and will come flowing back almost i'm.
mediately into the farmers pockets for
their products.
The farmers should be the heaviest
purchasers of these bonds, they are the
safest investment that can be devised,
and the money supplies their best GUS
toner with funds to purchase their pro-
duets. This is political economy of
the very highest order.
This little article on the Liberty
Loan Bond' is submitted to the con
sideration Of Marshall County farmers
with the hope and the prayer that it
will not go unheeded.
Yours respectfully,
G. A. TULLAR,

MARSHALL COUNTY FARMERS
AND THE LIBERTY LOAN

1t is worth while to consider the
fact that the money received for the
Liberty Loan Bonds will go principally
to the farmers in payment for farm
products of all descriptions. The price
of farm products will rest very largely
upon the success of the sale of these
bonds in small denominations to the
farmers and others who are able to
purchase at least fifty dollar bond.
The more bonds that are sold to small
purchasers the less war taxes there
will have to be paid. There is this
difference between buying a bond and
paying taxes: the money paid for a
bond will come back with added inter-
est, but the money paid for taxes will
never come back, it is gone for good.
The Government is very anxious that
that bonds be purchased by the moder.
ately we'll to do and not by the million
aires, and for this reason the bonds are
not taxed, and if millionaires are not
permitted to buy bonds in large guam
titles, their wealth will be left intact
for direct taxation, and the property of
the man Of small means, as a conse-
quence, will not be called upon for so
great a burden of taxation. This point
is we'll worth considering by every
farmer of Marshall county, and by all
farmers, and small investors. ,,r
All of the Liberty Loan Bonds could
be sold in twenty-four hours to the
bankers and millionaires, twice over,
would the government permit it; but,
as before stated, it is desired to leave
large fortunes intact for direct taxa
tion. In many cases this means tax
of from twenty to fifty per cent Of the
fortune. No wonder the capitalists are
clamOring for these bonds, it is their
only means of keeping their wealth in
hand. This bond sale is the farmers
and small investors opportune time to
display their good judgement in econ

THE TRAITOR.
BY Berton Braley.

He hangs out flag from his home
and his office
He always stands up at "The Star
Spangled Banner
In talks and discussions he rails at the
Prussians
And handles the kaiser in virulent
manner;
He always is present at loyalty meet
ings
And up on the platform he pays for a
seat,
(The price doesn't matter, his profits
are fatter
Since war gave him chances for cor
nering wheat.)
He talks with emotion of ''brave SOL
dier .laddies''
Or noble young jackies who sail on
the foam,'
Then shoots up the price on potatoes
and rice
And other things needed abroad and at
home;
He praises brave mothers who give
their sons freely
Then soaks those same mothers for
clothing and food,
But if you cry traitor, this smooth
speculator
Will think you are one Of ,lunatic
brood.
Yet Benedict Arnold was only piker
Compared to the man who, amid all
the strife,
Will seize in the chances to force
huge advances
In things that nation depends on
for life;
He did his foul work in the war Of
secession
He poisoned our boys in the conflict
with Spain
High up on gibbet we ought to ex-
hibit
This traitor who holds up nation
for gain!

USEFUL HINT FOR
THE BEAN GROWER

The high price Of beans has brought
in the market beans of Indifferent quail
ity for seed, and beans from California
and other western states. Prospective
bean growers should be very careful,
THEREFORE, to have termination tests
made before they plant their beans and
should refuse absolutely to buy beans
from California or other Pacific coast
states Beans raised in the west re-
quire from 125 to 145 days to mature.
This is much longer than the growing
season in Minnesota and such beans
planted here are said to be practically
killed by frosts before they mature.

VHE volunteers! The volunteers!

SHE volunteers! The volunteers!
dream as in the bygone years.

Pours to the wars her legions forth
For many a wrong to strike blow

The volunteers! All, where are they
Who bade the hostile surges stay
When the black forts of Monterey
Frowned on their dauntless line
Where, undismayed a.mid the shock
OF war, like Cerro Gordo's rock,
They stood or rushed more madly on
Than tropic tempest DER San Juan?
On AngOstura's crowded field
Their scattered columns scorned to yield
And wildly yet defiance pealed
Their flashing batteries throats
And echoed then the rifle crack
AS deadly as when on the track
OF flying foe of yore it's voice
Bade Orleans dark eyed girls rejoice
Blent with the roar of guns and bombs,
How grandly from the dim past comes
The roll Of their victorious drums,
Their bugles' joyous notes,
When over Mexicos proud towers
And the fair valleys storied bowers,
Fit recompense for toll and scars,
In triumph waved their flag of stars.
All, comrades Of your own tried troop,
Whose honor ne'er to shame might stoop,
OF lion heart and eagle swoop,
But you alone remain.
On all the rest has fallen hush
OF death, the men whose battle rush
Was wild as sun loosed torrents flow
From Orizaba's crest of snow.
The volunteers! The volunteers!
God send us peace through all our years.
But If the cloud of war appears
Well see them once again,
From broad Ohio's peaceful side,
From where the Maumee pours it's tide,
From storm lashed Erie's wintry shore,
Shall spring the volunteers once more
