Neither side wanted Hampy at the

The Penrose Independents did not
want him any more than he wanted him.
| They wanted Acker. They refused to
consider Moore. They were afraid of
him up to the time they decided to
throw Acker. whereas we were willing
to take Hampy and take a chance.
'Grundy and Penrosc are close
friends: Grundy is an able aggressive
fighter. do not believe his friendship
for Moore, however. is going to do the
latter any good with the labor vote. for
Mr.. Grundy does not stand well. as |

Uncle Davy still maintains that. log

CROPS ARE IN THE
PINK OF CONDITION
Wheat Shows Up Well and Is Making
Rapid GrOwth-Rye Never Looked
Better-Farmers Sowing Feed
Crops This Week.

Crops are looking fine thruout the
state and conditions are especially
good in the northwestern sections.
Wheat is growing fast. The weather
has been very warm for this time of
the year. The soinl is moist and the
seed no sooner gets into the ground
than it starts to terminate. The stand
of wheat is very heavy and the earlier
sown fields now almost cover the
ground. Rye is growing rapidly,
standing six or eight inches high in
many fields.
Most farmers seeded their last
wheat Saturday, altho there are a
few who will take chances on seeding
this week, realizing that it is rather
risky business to seed wheat so late,
but willing to take chance consid-
ering the price guaranteed for this
crop.
This week, the farmers are busy
seeding oats, barley and speltz, or
preparing the ground for same. A
good deal Of fax will be sown this
year, even on old land, as the price,
which is we'll over $500 bushel,
makes this paying crop, even when
the yield is not large.
The hay crop is going to be heavy
this year and pastures are showing
a splendid growth.
One farmer remarked that crops
are always big at this time of the
year." yet the conditions are brighter
than they have been for number Of
years.
Farmers will continue to sow flax
until about the middle Of June. No
corn has been planted vet. but this
viii be done at an early date.

of LEAGUE of Nations

Telegram. Former President Taft
and party stopped in Fremont this
afternoon on their way across the
country from the Pacific coast to
St. Louis and Atlanta. During a
short stop at the Union station, Mr..
Taft spoke briefly on the object of
the league of nations. 1--WE have

now is to make it impossible for
any bantam rooster nation to kick
up its heels and start a war on its
neighbor whenever it feels so in
clined," Mr.. Taft said.
1--WE want to fix it so that our
boys will not have to do the work
again. We are making this trip
for the purpose of urging upon the
people the necessity of supporting
the league of nations idea.
Write to your congressman and
urge them to support the measure
when they are given the opportun-
ity," he told the crowd.
Charles L. Brown, dean of divin-
ity of Yale university, was intro
duced by Mr.. Taft and was speaking
when the train pulled out.
Schools were dismissed and a
number of business houses closed
so that the employees could hear the
distinguished American. A crowd OF
1000 persons was at the station.
