The Farm Labor question.

The farmers of the nation are not
alone in their uneasiness concerning
an adequate supply Of labor for then
this year. A great deal of time and
thought has been devoted to the
question by officials of the Govern
ment; and the Department of Labo
has been formulating far-reachins
plans in regard to it.
Secretary Wilson has tentatively
placed his reliance on three classes
of possible labor supply, exclusive o.
men, of the National Army who ma.
be given furloughs to assist with tn
harvest. The women Of the country

Bryan Urges Legislature To Ratify
Amendment To Constitution.

Before an audience which packed
the floor and galleries of the House
chamber at Annapolis Tuesday after
noon, and which frequently inter-
rupted his address by vociferous APP
plause, former Secretary Of State
William Jennings Bryan made an
address in favor of the ratification of
the national prohibition amendment.
The first part of his speech was
devoted to replying to the arguments
Of William L. Marbury. Then as he
said he brushed aside small matters
and went into the subject of prohi-
bition from the bottom He call
ed upon the Legislators not to be
controlled by brewery-ridden and
saloon-ridden Baltimore city.
At the end of the speech of two
hours the Governor announced that
Mr.. Bryan would hold reception in
the old Senate chamber, and a large
crowd met him there. He took din
ner with Governor Harrington and
left for Washington later.

The Income Tax.

ut will be well for every unmar-
ried person whose net income for
1917 is $1,000 or over, and every
married person living with wife or
husband whose net income for 1917
is $4,000 or over to call on the in
come tax man and learn whether or
not they have any tax to pay" Col
lector Joshua w. Miles said last
week. 1.-THE person subject to tax
who doesn't make return in the
time prescribed will regret it, as the
Government will certainly get after
all income slackers. feel constrain-
ed to say this strictly in the interest
Of persons of every class liable to the
tax
There's hardly business man,
merchant or professional man who
won't have to make return of in
come. Farmers. as class, will
have to pay the tax. The safe thing
to do is for every person who had a
total income of $1,000 or $4,000, as
the case may be, and who is not sure
about what deductions the law allows
him, to play it safe by calling on the
income tax man.
"The man in the field will have
forms for everybody and persons
who expect to call on him need not
trouble themselves to write to my
Office for FORMS"

II am the instrument of the Almighty. [ am
His sword, His agent. Woe and death to those
who are opposed to my will Woe and death
to those who do not believe in my mission ! Woe
and death to all towards. Let them perish, all
the enemies of the German people God de
mands their destruction God Who, by my mouth,
bids you do His will"

CASEY ON SEDITION.
knoxville, Iowa Express.)


The Express is against mob law So is every
good citizen. Also, we are against toryism and
prof. ermanism and sedition and slackerism, and
SO is every good citizen. The question seems to
arise in some localities which is the lesser evil
to tolerate mob law or let sedition strut through
the streets. The people of one Illinois town de-
cided the question for themselves one day last
week, and have buried the traitor who preached
sedition in public speech. Lynching is ter
rble thing, of course, but desperate diseases re-
Quire desperate remedies. One thing is sure: 1t
is better that hundred seditious traitors be
lynched than that their o-German mouthings
shall be allowed to endanger the life of one loyal
boy in France. These things are infectious. Let
one blatant traitor rant his sedition, and he has
infected dozen slackers who are potential trail
tors. Likewise, his repression is Infectious That
Illinois Iynching extinguished not only the hound
who caused it, but the dozen or score of more
cowardIy but not less venomous ours who would
have started barking soon, had he been unmo-
Tested. Lynching is not permanent remedy
for any condition. nor one to be used reckless
ly. It is rather home remedy to be used in ex-
IRENE cases while waiting for the doctor to ar
rive. Give it time, and the law will correct these
things, just as the doctor handles cases; but
the law is sometimes slow in arriving, in new
countries and under new conditions in old coun-
tries. The prudent law-abiding householder in
vaded by miscreant will telephone the police;
but it is not required that he shall sit hepessly
and let the miscreant murder his family because
the law is not represented by an officer. In like
manner shall America sit calmly by while the
flower of her young manhood is murdered, and
allow traitors to preach sedition and justify the
German butchers, because the laws intended for
peaceful democracy have not yet been made
adequate for the militant autocracy which every
nation at war must for. the time being become?
Traitors must be punished and sedition weeded
out-by law if possible, without law if necessary
