Essay on a Cow.

A little boy wrote an essay about
cows and read it in the Connecticut
school society. The essay reads az
follows: "A COW is an animal with
four legs on the under side. The tail
IS no longer than the legs but is not
used to stand on. The cow kills flies
with her tail. A COW has big ears that
zwtggle on hinges so does l,"r tail. A
COW Is bigger than a calf but not as
big as an elephant. She is made small

THE sTockYARDs MERGER

AS might have been expected when
Attorney General Palmer made his
compromise agreement with the Big
Five meat packers, and thereby avoid
ed indict1ng them under the criminal
statute for conspiracy in violation of
the Sherman antitrust law, the pack
ers are in no bury to carry out their
part Of the bargain. They are playing
for time.
The latest scene in the farce shows
+ A. Mitchell Palmer telling the packers
that the government can not accept
their scheme of consolidating their
stockyards holdings into one vast ma
tion-wide stockyards monopoly under
the name Of F. H. Prince & Co. The
federal trade commission forced his
hand by making prompt report show
ing that this brazen proposal was
worse than the present conditions.
Weeks and months will be consumed
IN framing up. another fraud on the
public as to the ownership of the stock
yards. Then Senator Jim Watson will
be in high favor at the White House
and he will arrange a new scheme of
settlement which will ignore any pro-
test which the federal trade commits
sion may offer. Watson is the pack
ers' errand boy in the senate.

NONPARTlSANlSM EVERYWHERE
Says Labor, organ of the Plumb Plan
league, in an editorial on Senator N.Y.
,ers' bolt: Senator Myers is only
carrying out the methods he has pur-
sued in the national legislative body,
always against the people and in IA
vor of ting. corporation interests. No
doubt the: purged Democratic party in
his state will be all the stronger for
his opposition. -
'Party labels are not so popular this
year among the plain people as hither-
to. The nonpartisan political policy
of organized labor and the farmers has
lifted many of the old fossil reaction
aries from their mudsills in a way to
make them stand up and think The
farmers and labor are supporting only
those men who place their fealty to
the. people before that of party ma
chimes and Wall street."

HERALD PRAISES FARMERS

Senator Myers has bolted the Demo-
cratic party in Montana because the
:Nonpartisan farmers and organized Ia
Dor in that state have won the primary
fight against the Anaconda Copper
company ticket. His denun citation OF
the Democratic party in Montana as
II. w. w. and bolshevis1n'' has been
rejected in toto by the Washington
Herald, organ of Julius Barnes and
Herbert Hoover, on the ground that
the farmer-1abor movement is abso-
lutely law-5abiding, open, parliamentary
and American in it's methods.
This statement in the editorial COL
umns of the Herald, which has on
former occasions taken issue with the
Nonpartisan farmers movement is "a
good emen of the new understanding
which the East is getting with regard
to the activities of the farmers and or
-ganized labor in the Northwest
The intolerant attitude of Myers to-
ward the farmers of Montana gives
away the secret of the general apathy
in connection with the Democratic ma
that is an issue in this campaign; it
is the influences responsible for his
nomination. Myers person1fies those

 Gov. Thomas E. Campbell has re- leased the secret on how he rose to fame-his success started from the time back in 1898 when he became a newspaper reporter. He went to Je- rome in that year to hold down a job of some sort, and some newspaper that was prominent in those days appointed him it's correspondent. Almost inme- diateiy the embryo governor had oc- caSion to cover a terrible mine acci- dent involving a 300-foot cave-in and the loss of many lives, the Associated Press wire taking 5000 words on that and soon afterward the town burned down and he did 10000 words of fire stuff. The capitol reporters have taken heart. They realize now that they need to work only q years more and they Iill be governors, too.

may see his need and, through divine understanding, take the proper steps td supply it. We have no proof that we love God unless we are giving practical evidence that we love our fellow man, for says the beloved disciple, "he that loveth not his brother whom ha hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seem %
 "The religion of love-" which Jesus taught and lived, is. however vastly more than taking a sentimental in terest in our fellow man or merely try ing to make him comfortable by sup plying his material requirements. In deed, Christian Science shows that ir is even possible to harm him if, by any act. we induce him to believe that his harmony and well-being are de- pendent upon the amount of his ma terial possessions, instead of upon an exact knowledge of God The law of love, or principle, requires something more than material giving. As the un- derstanding of the divine nature and character unfolds to our consciousness. we see that true love necessitates that we separate from our concept of God and man all that is impure and un- holy; it demands that we shall think of God and worship Him only an in finite spirit, omniScient mind, incorpo- real life, eVerpreSent truth, omnipo- tent love-the creating, governing, di-
  that we know man only His image and likeness. To prove that we love God by loving our neighbor it is neces- sary to love him as God loves him, to see him as God sees him. And while 1t may not be an easy thing to com prehend in their fullness the nature and character of principle and it's re- flection man, we can at least begin 10 grasp the fact that the creating princi- pie, that which is infinite, immortal. i'm lfrh T t.sf., within itself any quality or concept of mortality, changeableness, finite ness temperatures.
 And if this is so of the character. it must also be so of the created. Man expresses all the qualities of Deity, and, as the recognition comes to us of what these qualities are, we mus look for their expression in ourselves and in our neighbor. That is what lt means to love ourselves and our fellow man as God loves us; to see man only as Gods likeness. perfect as the Father is perfect and in so doing to separate from our consciousness of him every sense of imperfection. matter, evil, dis ease, sin, death: and to maintain this view of man in spite of every argu- ment to the contrary. To love God. we must see Him and understand Him as He is; to love our neighbor as our selves, we must prove our love for God by seeing and understanding man as he is-wes must emulate the example of the Master, of whom Mrs. Eddy says: Jesus beheld in science the per feet man, who appeared to him where shining mortal man appears to mortals In this perfect man the Saviour saw Gods own likeness, and this correct view of man healed the sick Thus Jesus taught that the Kingdom of God in intact, universal and that man is pure and holy" (Science and Health, pages 476-47f)
