Reservation to Article x of
the League Adopted by
Senate Committee J

by Daniel T. O'Connell, Director of the
Irish National Bureau:
"Agitators" Says Hitchcock.
THE statement credited to Senator
Hitchcock in the Washington Post of
this day, in which he is quoted, among
other things as saying: 1t was be-
lived by the administration that only
1rishmen of the radical, agitator type
were against the treaty and the Cove
nant,' is slurring insult TO the 20.
100000 Americans of Irish blood.
IF Senator Hitchcock, as the minor
ity leader of the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee, had not absented himself, with
all his democratic colleagues, from
the hearing of last Saturday, his
offensive characterization of mil
lions of his fellow citizens might
not have been uttered. The absence
from the hearing indicated an unwill-
ingness to hear the evidence and Judge
the cause on it's merits. To condemn
without hearing is un-American. 1t is
a policy, that has led many to disaster;
and Senator Hitchcock is directing his
path toward disaster, when he INDUCES
in attempts to ridicule 2O,OOO,OOO Amer
leans.

when American citizens of the type
of Judge Daniel F. Cohalan, ex-Gover-
nor Edward F. Dunno, Hon. Frank P.
Walsh, Hon. Michael j. Ryan, Hon. w.
Burke Cochran, Cardinal O'Connell of
Boston, Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore,
Archbishops and Bishops, Presidents
of Universities, Governors, Mayors,
members of both houses of Congress,
and hosts of other distinguished citi-
zens have spoken on behalf of Ireland,
and joined the Americans of Irish
blood in protesting against ratification
of League of Nations, that would
forever make it possible for a small
nation to obtain freedom by applica-
tion of the principle of 'self-determina-
tion,' it comes with poor grace from
Senator Hitchcock to engage in sneers.
Senator Hitchcock will find that
these men, and the audiences such as
the $4,000 American men and women
who attended meeting at Boston, are
the intelligent, Thoughtful Irish of the
United States,' whom he attempted to
portray as supporting the position he
champions.

PAPAL coNslsToRY TO BE HELD
IN NOVEMBER.

An Associated Press cable states
that Pope Benedict has decided to
hold a Consistory in November or
December, at which new Cardinals
will be created.
The correspondent admits that it is
not known whether any more Amer
ican Cardinals will be named, but it
is commonly rumored that Archbish-
op Bonzano, the Papal Delegate at
Washington, D. c., will be honored
with the Cardinalate.

went the same route. They started
to do things in a cooperative way,
but fell under the spell of capitalism.
The American method took the name
and operated under the capitalistic
banner. There are Farmers Union
gins. which financially are a success.
They were built to remedy certain
evils. Have they fulfilled their mis-
sion? No, they made money for the
stockholders. That is the principle
which governs a bank, a trust or a
pool hall.
Upon the continent, and in some
of our northern and western states,
farmers use the Rochdale system of
cooperation. This system is not only
beautiful. but it is practical. A CO.
operative enterprise must have a
guarantee against the control and
manipulation of capital. Therefore,
under the Rochdale system each man
has one vote. regardless of the num-

giving is one of the essentials.
Every cooperative enterprise must
of course, be properly capitalized.
There must be a working capital. A
good many farmers are willing to
contribute for the purchase of a gin
or house to do business, yet will re-
fuse to furnish working capital with
which to conduct the business. They
say that the money put in real estate
can be seen, while the balance might
be lost. This indicates complete lack
of confidence in themselves, the Of
ficers they elect and the system Of
transacting business.

must approach it from three differ
ent points. These three points rep
resent the technical, the commercial
and the social view. We must con-
slider agriculture as an industry, a
business and as a life.
To the Industry must be applied
the teaching of modern science. In
to the business must be introduced
the methods of other occupations, and
by far the most important is COM
binatiOn whenever things can be done
more efficiently collectively than in
dividually.
Again, the life of rural cOmmunl-
ties must receive as much thought
and care as are lavished on the prob
lens of city population. Unless we
do these things neither the rural pop
ulation nor the industry, which feeds
the nation, will ever occupy the place
which properly belongs to them in
the national life.
There are two methods used in
cooperation. The American and the
Continental methods.
The American method is usually
based ON the corporation plan. The
corporation or joint stock company
form of combination is wholly insult
able to farmers. They have been
tried and what is the result? All

In the rush of United War Fund,

Loan drives Of the past few months,
the needs Of the Salvation Army have
been temporarily forgotten in Whit
man county and the county quota OF
$4,000 for 1918 is yet to be raised or
else the county must go on record as
the only county in the state falling
to do its share. The Salvation Army
needs for the present year were
taken care of in the United War

quota of the 1913 fund for this or
ganization has not yet been raised.
Ellis Laird cashier of the First
Savings & Trust bank of Colfax, has
been named chairman of the belated
drive, and quotas for the different
towns of the county, the aggregate
making up the county quota, have

II cooperation is practical enough
to run an army and win a war, it
is good enough to be applied to the
problems OF any business. While
American industry had been swell
ing with pride and presenting a
front of glittering glory to the
world, it took the relentless pressure
OF war to convince US all that our
backyard had been full of unfair
and shameful junk, made up OF past
and present practices.
The war has brought home for the
first time the value OF cooperation.
