POLITICAL REVOLT in EAST
Discomfort Among New York Farm.
n TO be Voiced at
Polls.

Inspired BY the accomplishments Of
the farmers Of the Northwest who
have taken their political fortunes IN
their own hands, agriculturalists Of
New York state have determined to
launch q political party Of their avn.
This uprising Of the farmers -
the result OF dissatisfaction with the
way the state administration IL hand
ling agricultural and food problems,
The plans call for an entire stats
ticket, with candidates for the assem-
bly, In every rural district In the
state. It will be q purely agrarian
party. None but farmers will -
named.
New York state politicians arr
greatly agitated over this evidence Of
independence on the part Of tho
farmers who hare been voting Tor
years the way they we're told to vote.
Republican leaders tried to avert the
Inception Of the new party. The agrf-
culturaNsts refused to accept the
olive branch offered BY Leutenant
Governor Schoeneck on hahalf 'of tn
state administration.

SHOW FLOUR PROFITS LARGE
Montana City Cuts Prices In Half by
Manufacturing at
Home.

Proof of enormous prof1teering in
flour is found In the experience Of
Harlem, Montana, where the citizens
got together and erected q small flour
mill which cut the price of -four in
half. The Terry, Montana, Tribune,
which makes this statement, says
that a number Of communities ON the
Yellowstone have got relief by the
same method
No palmer case was ever made in
favor Of state owned -four mills. The
Montana farmer must sell his wheat
at the Minneapolis price, less freight.
He must buy his -four at the Mime
apolis price, plus freight and plus the
profits that have been taken by the
various agencies along the Journey.
At least a half q dozen Of these
useless middlemen who contribute
nothing to tha value Of the product,
have to be supported. The buyer at
the original point, the commission
firm In Minneapolis, the buyer for
the mill, the milling company. all
have to be settled with before the
-four is made. On the Journey hack
the product must support wholesaler,
3obber and retailer. The Transports
Mon companies take profit both ways.
This illustrates the useless expense
by middlemen that the Non-partisan
league Is organized 20 eliminate. BY
acting together the people Of Mon

may treat their meat bill In the
same way by organizing state-owned

and several thousand men par
ticipated. The exercises were in
charge of first Lieut.. H. B. Boyd,
senior division chaplain, and he
was assisted by the other prot
estant chaplains.
The form was a composite Of
the Methodist, Lutheran Con-
gregational, Christian and Pres
byterian communion services.
The plan as far as is known is
an entirely new one. Because of
the nature of the work being
done by the chaplains and the ne
cessity of a spirit Of co-ordina-
ton in their work, it was decid-
ed the best interests Of all con-
cerned could be served by the
so-called Union Communion.

The Slogan Of the Celt.

The Slogan Of the Celt.
For all downtrodden, weak we come,
We're wearied sore of kings;
Sultans and cars and ernperors
Have been the curse Of things.
e stand no more for empires broad,
Land added unto land
IT'S for the races, racial rights
We come with sword in hand.
We're tired Of crown-lands, palaces
Whilst the starved masses fall
One law must govern citizens
And liberty for all;
He who is upright, just and brave
And for all truth hath stood
Alone is king, whate'er his birth
He is Of royal blood.
It is the slogan of the Celt
AT last that stirs the earth
Too long the lordling's sporting-ground,
The despot,s mock and mirth.
Hear it, and trenble monarchs all,
Behold the starlit skies
And quit your reeking, tottering thrones
In time, if We be wise.
Sultans and kaisers never yield,
Nor czars till clangs the sword;
Not till the warcloud rolls he fears
Whom fawning ranks call lord;
But surely there is one who reads t
The flaming heavens Alright
And knows the hour of kings is gone,
HumanltyS dark night.
OF him may coming millions say
When bordering on past things:
Blood-drenched the world by emperors;
Evil the day of kings,
And all forgot the Lord of Hosts,
And each abused his power,
But one did one good act, It's said,
He read Alright the hour
And left a borrowed throne before
The people hurled it down
Simple, not good, not bad, nor ruled
Although he wore a crown,
Yet saw the cost in human gore,
The grief to keep a king
The one man of his foolish house
To do a knightly thing.
