remedy existing conditions by frank
counsel rather than by violent con-
test. No remedy is possible while
men are in temper, and there can be
no settlement which does not have as
it's motive and standard the general
interest. Threats and undue insist
ence upon the interest of a. single
class makes settlement impossible. l
believe, as I have hitherto had occas-
ion to say to the congress, that the
industry and life of our people and
f the world will suffer irreparable
damage if employers and workmen
are to go on in a perpetual contest,
as antagonists. They must, on one
plan or another, be effectively asso-
ciated. Have we not steadiness and
self possession and business sense
enough to work out that result? I'm
doubtedly we have, and we shall work
it out. In the meantime-now and In
the days of readjustment and recu-
peration that are ahead of us-let us
resort more and more to frank and
intimate counsel and make ourselves
great and triumphant nation by
making ouselves a united force in
the life of the world. 1t will not then
have looked to us for leadership in
vain.

they have the public interest sin
cerely at heart. And l have no doubt
that housekeepers all over the coun-
try and everyone who buys the things
he daily stands in need of will pre-
sently exercise a greater vigilance, a
more thoughtful econmy, more dis
eliminating care as to the market IN
which he buys or the merchant with
which he trades than he has hitherto
exercised. I believe, too, that the
more extreme leaders of organized
labor will presently yield to a sober
second thought and, like the great
mass of their associates, think and
act like true Americans. They will
see that strikes undertaken at this
critical time are certain to make mat
ters worse, not better-worse for
them and for everybody else. The
worst thing, the most fatal thing
that can be done now is to stop or
interrupt production of or interfere
with the distribution Of goods by the
railways and the shipping of the
country. We are all involved in the
distressing results of the high cost of
living and we must unite, not divide,
to correct it. There are many things
that ought to be corrected in the re-
lations between capital and labor, in
respect of wages and conditions of
labor and other things even more far
reaching, and !, for one, am ready to

hearted and true. Therefore the
members of Bachman Chapel Sunday
school, to which she was faithful
member, offer the following resolu-
tions as token of our love and es-
TEEN:
1. That we bear testimony that
her life was one of service and in her
death great loss is sustained, yet
we would not murmur nor complain
at the dealings Of on All-wise ever
lasting loving Father, we would hum
bly, submit to him and even through
tears say, "Thy will be done not
ours"
2. That her worship was active
and manifestation of Christian
grace.
8. That we extend to her loved
ones our sincere sympathy and COM
mend them to the loving savior who.
best can comfort and sustain them.
May they find comfort in the promise
"God doeth all things well.''
4. That this tribute Of loving es-
TEEN be recorded in each of the.

very critical and very difficult mat
ters. We should go forward with
confidence along the road we see,
but we should also seek to compre-
bend the whole OF the scene midst
which we act. There is no ground
for some of the fearful forecasts l
hear uttered about me, but the con-
dition of the world is unquestlonably
very grave and we should face it
comprehendingly. The situation OF
our own country is exceptionally for
tunate. We of all peoples can afford
to keep our heads and to determine
upon moderate and sensible courses
of action which will ensure us against
the passions and distempers which
are working such deep unhappiness
for some of the distressed nations on
The other side of the sea. But we may
be involved in their distresses unless
we help and help with energy and IN
telligence. The world must pay for
the appalling destruction wrought by
the great war, and we are part of the
world. We must pay our share. For
five years now the industry of all
Europe has been slack and 'lisorgan-
lied. The normal crops have not been
produced; the normal quantities OF
manufactured goods has not been
turned out. Not until there are the
usual crops and the usual production
of manufactured goods Oh the other
side of the Atlantic can Europe re-
turn to the former conditions and it
was upon the former conditions, not
the present that our economic rela-
tions with Europe were built up. We
must face the fact that unless we
help Europe to get back to her norm
al life and production chaos will en-
sue that which will inevitably be COM
municated to this country. For the
present, it is manifest, we must
quicken, not slacken our own produc-
ton. We, and we almost alone now
hold the world steady. Upon our
steadfastness and self control de-
pend the affairs of nations every
where. 1t is in this supreme crisis
this crisis for all mankind-that
America must prove her mettle. In
the presence of world confused, dis
tracted, must have self possession,
self contained, capable of sober ac-
ton. She saved Europe by her ac-
tion in peace. In saving Europe she
will save herself, as she did upon the
battlefield of the war. The calmness
and capacity with which she deals
with and masters the problems of
peace will be the final test and proof
of her place among the peoples of the

Help People Overseas.

Help People Overseas.
And, if only in our own interest,
we must help the people overseas.
Europe is our biggest customer. We
must keep her going or thousands OF
our shops and scores of our mines
must close. There is no such thing
as letting her 60 to ruin without our
selves sharing in the disaster.
In such circumstances, face to face
with such tests, passion must be dis
carded. Passion and disregard for
the rights of others have no place in
the counsels of a free people. We
need light, not heat, in these solemn
times of self examination and saving
action. There must be no threats.
Let there be only intelligent counsel,
and let the best reasons win, not the
strongest brute force. The world has
just destroyed the arbitrary force of
military junta. 1t will live under
no other. All that is arbitrary and
coercive is in the discard. Those
who seek to employ it only prepare
their own destruction. We can not
hastily and over night revolutionlze
all the processes of our economic life.
We shall not attempt to do so. These
are days of. deep excitement and OF
extravagant speech; but with US these
are things of the surface. Every
one who is in real touch with the
silent masses of our great people
know that the old strong fibre and
steady self control are still there,
firm against violence or any distem-
pered action that would throw their
affairs into confusion. I am serenely
confident that they will readily find
themselves, no matter what the cir
cumstances and that they will address
themselves to the tasks of peace with
the same devotion and the same stall
wart preference for what is right that
they displayed to the admiration of
the whole world in the midst Of
war.
Other Forces Available.
And | entertain another confident
hope. I have spoken today chiefly of
measures of imperative regulation
and legal compulsion, of prosecutions
and the sharp correction of selfish
processes, and these, no doubt, are
necessary but there are other forces
that we may count on besides those
resident in the department of justice.
We have just fully awakened to what
has been going on and to the influ-
ence, many of them very selfish and
sinister, that have been producing
high prices and imposing an intoler-
able burden on the mass of our peo-
pie. To have brought it all into the
open will accomplish the greater part
! Of the result we seek.

cur producers, our middle men and

to show that they comprehend, that
they intend to act just and that

FOR HARVEST TRAVEL
Rock LsIannd Locals Extend Run
From Pratt to Liberal

Better service for shipments and
travellers will be instituted by the
Rock Island, effective June %, when
the runs of Number 81 and Number
312, local passenger trains, will be
extended to Liberal instead of
Pratt, as they do now.
The extension of the runs of the
locals is being made to take care of
the expected increase in travel be-
cause of the harvest. Harrington still
will remain the eastern terminus of
the run.
The extension of service will take
off some of the work being done at
present by Numbers 8 and A and
and 2. These trains have been max
ing the local stops in the 1877 miles
between Liberal and Pratt to the de-
triment of fast trans-continental
service.

is BOUND
TO HAVE RAILROAD
Business Men and Farmers Boosting
the Liberal to Colorado
Railroad

The meeting of the Hugoton Com
mercial Club last Monday way quite
an enthusiastic railroad meeting.
Ed. Woods, Joe Fuest, Ray Millman,
Mr.. Cooper and others were over
from Liberal and made talks in
favor of the Liberal-Hugoton rail-
road About sixteen farmers along
the proposed line were at the meet
ing to let us know that they were
for the road.
COMMITTEES were appointed to cir
culate petitions for bond election
to take place as soon as legally
possible. The election will be paid
for by Mr.. Byers who has made a
proposition to build the road for
Hugoton. The Liberal folks have
already voted some bonds and say
they are willing to vote more if nee
essary for this road.
Should the farmers in Oklahoma
not be willing to donate the required
amount for the Liberal-Forgan road
oklahoma cannot vote bonds-Mr.
Byers says he would take the equip
ment that he already has bought and
assembled and lay the road between
Hugoton and Liberal right away.
This would probably give us a road
in record time. Say three months
from the time it was started. Mr..
Byers is a man Of action and will do
what he says providing we come thru
with our part of the contract.
Of course the road will then be
built on out to Springfield and pos
sibly to Lamar or LaJunta. Every
body jump right in and help vote
the bonds and we'll have another
railroad soon. 1t would be one of
the finest things that could happen
for this county, especially the farm
ers.-Hugoton Hermes.

OBITUARY

Katie E. Cobb was born in Ohio,
September S, 1850, being one of a
family Of 8 children. In early life
the family removed to IroquOis
county, Illinois, where she lived her
girlhood and young woman-hoOd
days. At the age of IL she was early
thrown upon her own resources be-
cause of the death of her mother,
and after attaining what was posi-
BILE in educational lines she became
an instructor.

In 1876 she met George Matkin
and they were united in marriage in
1877, establishing a home on the
farm. Of this union five children,
all boys, were born-Clarence, who
was accidentally killed in childhood,
Harry, Ray, Roy and Fred, who sur
vive her. In addition Elmore, a STEP

Mrs. Matkin early gave her heart
into the keeping of her Savior and
for the past three years has been a
faithful and devoted member of the
church.
The record would not be complete
were we to omit the mention of her
many gracious qualities. Naturally
of retiring disposition she became
indeed a great force for good in the
neighborhood wherein it was her
privilege to dwell. In Pleasant Val
ley Township, Ford County, where
she with her devoted husband estab-
lished their pioneer home. No breath
of scandal was heard to fall from
her lips concerning any neighbor.
For 80 years and more she lived her
quiet, beautiful life ministering to
the wants of her own family or to
the sick neighbor as the case might
be, forgetful of self, solicitous only
for others. Is it any wonder that
the few remaining pioneers of the
valley are filled with sadness as they
think of her and her love for them?
She truly embodied the Spirit of the
Master as she went about among her
friends.
She leaves behind to mourn her

HIGH PRICES TO REMAIN
That Is the View Taken py Many Of
Our Business Men.

Within the past few weeks there
seems to have been quite change IN
the views of many of the leading bust
ness men and financiers of tie country,
A few weeks ago there seemed to be
in sight-in fact then with the people
to large extent-a period Cf business
stagnatlion that did not look good.
Now, however, BUSINESS in all parts
of the country seems to be waking up
and the general feeling Is that period
of great business development is at
hand.
fhe Manufacturers Record, one of
the leading financial journals of the
south, speaks of the most remarkable
business outlook for many years being
now at hand.
The impression prevails that high
prices have come to stay for a cnnsid-
cradle period and that such reductions
as do come will be IN so gradual way
that business will not be disrupted.
The latest movement looking to price
reductions is that the price of wheat
is to be reduced all along the line from
the wholesaler to the consumer That
will also mean son e reduction on othetr
grains, which will mean something of
a relief on food prices to the general
public. Wages are expected to be in.
fluenced to some extent by the food
price reductions and that will mean
slight reductions ir other commodities.
The general level of prices is ex-
pected to remain high for at least
year or two or to such time as produc-
tion reaches somewhere near normal
in the war torn sections of Europe.
In live stock production it is claimed it
will require from three to five years
for Europe to reach point anywhere
near pre- war times. That, of course,
means high meat prices in this country.
With high meat and bread prices other
things cannot be expected to exper-
ience much of price decrease.
The feeling is general that neither
wages nor food or other commodity
prices will ever turn to pre-war times
and at the general standard of living
will remain much higher than before
the war. None of the leading tinan.
ciers express any hope of decline in
the general level Of prices Of much |
moment short of year. On that basis
business seems determined not to wait,
but to push ahead and make hay
while the sun shines.
The man who stands and waits seems
doomed to be left behind and to find
himself so much out of step with bust
ness conditions that he will realize
when too late that he made a great
by not falling into line to
push business along with the great
multitude that is now gathering for
the rush.

amounting to more than 78 million dol
lars and over million and half came

An effort is now being made to have
those who received that interst to in
vest it in Thrift Stamps. Such an in
vestment is one of the safest and brings
the highest rate of interest of any re-
