"Look at you in war-what mutton
YOU are, and how ridiculous"
"In war? How.
"There has never been just one,
never an honorable one---on the part
of the instigator of the war. l can
see a million years ahead, and this
rule will never change in SO many ss
half a dozen instances. The loud lit
lie handful-as usual-will shout for
the war. The pulpit will-warily and
cautiously-object-at first; the great,
big, dull bulk of the nation will rub
its sleepy eyes and try to make out
why there should be q war; ana Will
say, earnestly and indignantly, 1t Is
unjust and sdishonorabie, and there
is no necessity for itv
"Then the handful will shout loud
er. A few fair men on the other SIDE
will argue and reason against the
war with speech and pen, and at first
will have hearing and be applaud
ed: but it will not last long; those
others will outshout them, and pres
emily the anti-war audiences will thin
out and lose POPULARITY. Before long
YOU will see this curious thing: The
speakers stoned from the platform,
and free speech strangled by hordes
of furious men who in their secret
hearts are still one with those stoned
speakers-as earlier-but who do not
dare to say so. And now the whole
nation-pulpit and aI-will tal4e up
the war cry, and shout itself hoarse,
and rob any honest man who ventures
to open his mouth; and presently
such mouths will cease to open.
"Next the statesmen will invent
cheap lies, putting the blame upon
: the nation that is attacked, and every
e man will be glad of those conscience
!. soothing falsities, and will diligently
= Il study them, and refuse to examine
: any refutation of them; and thus ne
: will by and by convince himself that

Delegates representing most of the
organizedcounty farm bureaus OF
Minnesota met Thursday, September
i, at the State Agricultural College,
St. Paul, and form a preliminary
state federation that it is expected
will spread over the entire state. 1t
is said that the farm bureau MEM
bership now approximates 10000 in
Minnesota, and that when the state
federation plan has been approved
by $4,000 it will be put into opera
ton. Pending that time the temper
ary committee of 10 was continued
as the executive body of the organi-
zation.
The plan of the farm bureau fed
Grafton, as outlined by F. E. Balmer
secretary of the temporary commit
tee that has been working on the
plan, is to foster better living con-
ditions and greater prosperity fol
farmers, to give farmers prestige
through organization in all matters
pertaining to their welfare, and to
promote local cooperation.
The temporary constitution pro-
vides that no county bureau can be
admitted to the state federation un
til it has a membership equal to 2s
per cent Of the farming population OF
the county. Several delegates
thought this would disqualify mos
