short, the farmers of other states may
not agree with or approve any Of the
policies or measures that, the farmers
Of North Dakota have enacted or are
shout to enact; in fact, those policies
may be Objectionable, or not adaptable
to other states. But that is not the
question. The question is-and NJ
manly American should refuse to face
it in a manly way and answer it in a
manly fashion-have or have not the
farmers of North Dakota, Minnesota,
South Dakota or Nebraska (if they
have a majority Of the votes) the right
to adopt such policies and enact such
laws as they see proper, sc long as
those policies and laws are in accord
with the state and national constitu-
tons?
Protest Against SANDERS.
l take it that no decent citizen of
another state will for a moment ques-
ton this ~right-unless his mind is un-
balanced by vicious and false news
paper propaganda. Then do not the
farmers of states other than those
mentioned owe it to the farmers of the
northwest to stand by them in their
exercise of this right, and not to join
in the hue and cry Of the profiteering
interests against them? Is it brotherly
or becoming in the farmers of other
states to cOuntenance or many way
sanction the villainous campaign Of
wholesale misrepresentation. vile SIAN
der and malicious abuse Of the farm
ers of the northwest that the corrupt
business and political interests are
carrying on through their newspapers?
What are we to think of newspapers
that hold their columns open and free
to every p~rofiteering slanderer, who
seeks to brand as "disloyal" and Gun
states, simply because those farmers
are seeking in a constitutional way to
free themselves from thieveries and
oppressiOn?. What are we to think Of
the constituencies p%rofiteers and poll
ticians, who, through a servile press,
inflame the minds of the soldier boys
against the farmers Of the northwest,
simply and only because those farmers
are opposed to the economic and polit-
ical policies of the crooked interests?
For my part, I do not intend to allow
myself to be carried away and my COM
mon ems to be dethroned by news
paper propaganda against any man or
set Of lei whose measures and poll
cies whether practical or impractical,
desirable or ,undesirable) are based
upon our governmental machinery for
their realization. Whatever such the
cries may be, they certainly are not
~aharchistic, for the anarchist does not
believe in government at all, as we
understand government; if they are
socialistic. they certainly are not based
on force or revolutionary methods, for
they do not seek to destroy. our gov
eminent, but on the contrary, place
increased dependence on our estab-

not the views of the .bolshevist or the

zation, but on the contrary rely wholly
upon the American principle of peace

I have been asked to discuss the

preston. There is likely to be faE
more danger in the limitations than II
the free speech itself, however foolish
and Incorporate the speech may be-
If there were any virtue in repression,
the Bourbons would still be on the
throne Of France, the Romanofs
would still be on the throne Of Russia,
Spain would still be a great empire,
the Hapsburgs would still rule a Holy
Roman Empire, and the Federalist
party might still be in power in Wash.

TO
HAVE REV. HARRIS
Special Service Program Beginning
November 7th, With Rev. John
Royal Harris.

Local Presbyterians are looking
forward with much interest to their
Special Services which will begin at
the church November 7th to Novem-
ber 10th, and are highly pleased that
DR. John Royal Harris. a minister,
"seasoned with experience and with
with visible signs of Gods approval
upon his efforts" has been secured to
hold the meeting.
This special meeting is the first
that the local Presbyterians have held
since they have been in their new
church, and has been planned for
some time. The congregation have
previously had the pleasure of hear
ing DR. Harris, who although for
mer Tennessean, has labored for the
cause of Christianity all over the I'm
tied States, and welcomes his return
He was pastor of the Shady Avenue
Presbyterian church, Pittsburg, for
fifteen years. One hundred and

at the last meeting he conducted,
which was in March, 1919 Four sue
cessive years he held successful
meetings at the Pittsburg Mcclure
Avenue church. He is Chautau-

quently appeared on the Winona

his church has made no mistake in
having DR. Harris come here for a

conditions and realizing the need Of
the proper man, he is convinced that
in the answer to prayer, he has been
guided by Gcd in'securing DR. Harris,
in whom the church will have gifted

lived a spiritual and devout life. That
he believes DR. Harris a man whom
God loves to honor, to whose attract

ASSOCIATION HAS
GOOD RUN COTTON

Monday and Tuesday being gin
ming days for the members OF the
Henry County branch of the newly
forming American Cotton Associa-
tion, 20 bales were handled on the
custom ginning basis at the Rison
street gin, and stored in the Ago
factory warehouse for futrue mar
ket. Manager Routon reports the
new association progressing nicely
|and anticipates that when the attain
ment of storage capacity is reached,
those thus holding their cotton will
be able to secure money from local
banks on the bonded warehouse re-
ceipts as collateral Efforts are be-
ing made to secure the cooperation
Of local banks in financing the move
ment, the same as it Is being accom-
plished under the bonded warehouse
system elsewhere.
The last week has witnessed a
generally coed run of cotton to the
county gins, the Paris gin handling
some $4,000 pounds of seed cotton
per day for the closing days of last
week. The price remains at six
cents pound in the seed, and is re-
sulting in much dissatisfaction, al
though many cotton farmers are for
ced to sell their cotton to secure
money to retire outstanding indebt-
edness. Many, however, are having
their cotton ginned and carrying it
home in the bale for future sale,
when there will be a demand at bet
ter prices, it is thought.

PLANS FOR RED
CROSS ROLL CALL
DR.. l. A. McSwain, Chairman, Quite
Busy Lining Up For Big List
Dollar Members.

DIR. |. A. McSwain is county chair
man of the fourth Red Cross Roll
Call. He is an unusually busy man.
He is one of the busiest doctors of
this town, and all doctors are busy
people. He is active in lodge and
church wok, yet he has time, which
he is taking from other duties, to put
the Red Cross Roll CalL over in this
Ecounty. He will succeed. He is a
successful man. The quiet spirit
with which he has organized the drive
in the county, having already himself
visited three fourths of the schools
and churches of the county, and hav-
ing enlisted a corps of workers who
will ably assist him in this great work
assures the attainment of the county
quota.
Of course citizens Of the town and
county will be glad to give to the Red
Cross. 1t is the one organization
that needs no explanation of its
mighty accomplishments. 1t is an
organization that efficiently, charit-
ably, and energetically serves all man.
kind. The children will be given the
opportunity Of contributing their
portion. Those who are able will
be asked to give more than the dollar
membership fee. For the fourth
time, the Red Cross Roll Call in this
county will succeed. No other or
ganiztaion here has proved so gen
timely and generally popular as the
Red Cross.
With the end of the War, and with
slight abatement of the wonderful
rescue and refugee work that the Red
Cross accomplished abroad, saving
the lives of thousands of starving Ar
menian children, and putting new
life and energy into the devastated
peasants of Belgium, France, and
Russia, the Roll Call takes on a new
and personal significance at home,
because large portion of the mem
bership fees subscribed by people of
this county, will be used right here
at home to fight disease and poverty
and distress, and to help make this
town and all the county sweeter
and better place in which to live. 1t
us hoped that following the drive,
Nov. 11-25, there will be sufficient
funds in the Red Cross Golfers to en-
gage community nurses for the coun-
| t, who will aid in the home war on
the white plague and other disease
monsters that are sapping the vitali-
ty of our citizenry; who will visit
the homes of the county and give
lessons in hygiene and nursing; who
will instruct in the care of babies and
invalids; who will help to better the
health conditions Of Henry County;
and who will be of assistance in any
contagion or pestilence.
The town will be properly organ
lied for the drive DIR. McSwain is
an efficient organizer, who realizes
that the people WANT to give to the
Red Cross. He will later announce
'ub-chairmen and other detailed
plans for the drive. All will have
an opportunity of helping and of con-
tributing.
