FREEDOM NOT LICENSE

This is free country, holding for
freedom of speech and of the press,
but there always is limit Publica-
tons have been suppressed because
they worked against the public good
and speakers have been thrown in jail
for making incendiary speeches.
The question now bothering New
York in particular and the country in
general is whether or not the bolshe-
vik should be allowed freedom of as
sembly and speech. Soldiers and sal
Tors in New York evidently have con-
cluded that such assemblages are a
menace to democracy, and taking mat
tiers in their own hands have broken
up these meetings. Such actions on
the part of men in uniform is deplor-
able, but it must be remembered that
the provocation is great. We have all
seen the result of allowing the Boil
shevik even the limited freedom of
Russia and Germany. However, as
long as these parlor bolshevik stay
within the law they have a right in
this country, under the fair rule of
democracy, to hold their meetings I'M
disturbed. If in their meeting they
violate the law, the country has the
means to deal with these epople, but
no resort to riots or semi-violence is
excusable. Soldiers and sailors should
have more respect for the uniforms
and for the principles of democracy
than to participate in such riots.
The country, however, should keep
its eye on these bolshevilSi, parlor and
otherwise. If the men in uniform I'M
derstand that such agitators are I'M
der surveillance, and are not going
to be permitted to menace the freedom
sc dearly bought by the soldiers; there
will be no further rioting.

THE PAST AND PRESENT

Many of our statesmen-socalled-
lacking convincing arguments with
which to back up their assertions, do
not hesitate to borrow the bones of
the past in order to bolster up the
shaky framework they have reared.
Lincoln, Washington, and the consti-
tuition, are unceremoniously dragged
in regardless of appropriateness.
However, there are questions of today
on which Lincoln and Washington can
not be quoted as authorities, for they
did not have those problems to face.
Strange as it may seem to those gen.
tlemen whose minds are so firmly an
chored to the past, there are even some
issues in our reconstruction program
that can not be settled by the consti-
tuition. Today's problems are new and
live and must be settled in new and
live ways.

HOLLAND WON'T GIVE UP Kali
SER, SAYS STATE COLLEGE
PROFESSOR

So long as the present Holland gov
eminent stands it is questionable
whether the allied nations will be able
to get the Kaiser or the Crown Prince,
or any of the distinguished war refu-
gees who have sought safety in Hol-
land, out of the country for the pun
ishment they deserve, is the belief of
Professor o. C. Gebert, of the depart
ment of foreign languages of this in
stitution.
Prof. Gebert is a native of Prussia,
was educated in the German and
French universities, served his allotted
time in the German army, on the eve
of the world war in 1914 came to
America, and now is teacher of
French at the state college.
In substantiation of his view, Prof.
Gebert states that the "prinzgemahl"
of Holland, that is, the "prince-hus-
band" or the husband of Queen Will
helmina, is a cousin in some degree
Of the Kaiser. In other words he is a
Hohenzollern.
Mr.. Gebert states that by marrying
Hollands queen the Hohenzollern cou-
sin of Emperor William did not there
by usurp any of the functions of gov
eminent, such as pertain to the hered-
itary sovereign. 1t can reasonably be
expected, however, that the "prinzge-
mahl' Henry, has some influence with
his wife, and that this husbandly in
fluence may be welded in behalf of
his distinguished cousin William, the
ex-emperor.

A TEMPLE OF AGRICULTURE

\The proposed erection in Washing
ton, D. c., of temple of agriculture
deserves the sopport of farmers and
their organizations thruout the coun-
try.
In my opinion, says E. o. Holland,
president of the state college, the var
ious farm organizations of the United
States should have permanent offices
in the national capital. There should
be erected at the national capital a
splendid building where the represen-
tatives of the various farm organiza-
tons may meet and consider in what
ways the agricultural interests of the
country can render important service
to the nation and the world. l am con-
WINGED, too, that the nationwide far
mers' organizations will be able to
render important service to the United
States department of agriculture, and
to the various land grant institutions
of this country.
The time has come when the far
mers must organize in order to make
a careful study of their needs and OPP
portunities. Too often in the past the
farmer has had to move blindly. FIRE.
quently he and his neighbors had to
accept for their products prices that
were fixed by competitors. AS con-
sequence the farmer was less able, the
following year, to maintain his fam
lily and render important service to
the country.
Because of the world war and the
scarcity of food, the position of the
farmer has become a most important
one. Possibly for the first time in the
past hundred years has the world come
to realize the important part of the
farmer in civilized life. The leader
ship of the agricultural forces of
America will be greatly needed to as
sist in the solution of the social and
economic problems of the reconstruc-
ton period following the war.

FRUIT GROWERS CONGRESS
MftTSAT SPOKANE, NEXT WEEK
Prominent Fruit Growers from Every
Part of the United States
Will Be There

Spokane is making great prepare
lions for the coming of the fruit grow
ers from every part of the country to
remain in session there Dec. 10th to
18th inclusive. The Spokane News
Bureau sends out the following in
formation:
An editor farmer, one who not only
breaches the gospel of intensive Guilt
walton from his sanctum, but who ac-
tually spits on his hands and grabs
held of the cultivator in the field, is
to be the principal speaker at the
northwest fruit growers conference
in Spokane, December 1913. Such a
speaker would be a most unusual at
traction at any gathering, but in this
case even greater interest attaches
when it is known that the editor will
pass up hackneyed subjects and de-
vote his talk to the business side of
farming.
The speaker is John Y. Beatty, of
Chicago, practical farmer, fruit grow
er and editor of System on the
Farm" He was reared on farm, man.
ages a farm now and never loses an
opportunity to secure information on
cost problems as applied to produc-
ton and marketing. This informa-
ton he disseminates. He shows prac-
teal ways adopted by both large and
small fruit growers and farmers for
doing more work in less time; how
they keep simple records, how they
cut labor expense, handle help, stop
waste, how they borrow, how they sell
in short just what they do, why, and
how to swell their yearly profits.
Another speaker of note who will
be heard is Louis B. Magid, president
of the Appalachian Corporation of
Tallulah Park, Georgia. This is five
million dollar concern which manages
the biggest orchard tract in the south.
MIR. Magid will contrast growing and
marketing methods of his state with
those in the Pacific northwest.
DR.. E. H. Lindley, president of the
University of Idaho. will be toastmas
ter at the growers banquet.
The most important feature of the
conference will, of course, be dis
cussion of the proposed uniform fed
eral grading law and the changes it
would work in the Pacific northwest
Sentiment seems about equally divid
ed on the proposal. The subject will
be discussed thruout the sessions, Civ
ing everyone an opportunity to be
heard during the three days before ac
ton is taken. This plan has been
adopted because it would be impossi-
BILE to hear all the arguments on the
last day, Friday, when the tentative
grades will come up to be voted on.
A showing of hybrid seeding ap-
pies has been arranged by the horti
cultural department of the university
of Idaho and will be the first of its
kind in the northwest. The seedlings
are of known parentage and the first
fruitings, representing some three
hundred crosses made from leading
commercial varieties. The university
maintains one of the largest apple
breeding projects in the United States
with 1000 varieties of seedlings
growing on the Governmental farm. =

ARE ALWAYS WITH
us

The prospect is that we will have
just>as many agitators to deal with
in the reconstruction period as we had
in war times. Already they have be-
gun to make themselves heard with
a remedy for this and a panacea for
that. All we need to help us read
just ourselves to peace conditions is
the application of common sense and
fairness. As soon as government re-
strictions are removed, business will
readjust itself to normal, and the less
it is hindered by agitators the more
rapidly it will resume the even keel.

THE ERA OF PEACE

After the war, the brief period
of readjustment from war to peace,
there should be a period of prosper
ity for everyone. If we can have in
dustrial peace there will be plenty of
work at fair wages for everyone for
years to come. Peace will not bring
a panic assert all financial experts.
Prices on many commodities which
have been unduly inflated are due to

drop, and the increased supply of Ia
Dor may cause some friction between
labor and capital, it is asserted, but
these conditions will not lead to hard
times. The first decline in prices is
expected to be shown in the wholesale
markets, but increased buying on the
part of retail merchants, who are now
carrying the Gghtest possible stocks
in anticipation of this condition, will
more than offset that decline.
