was put out by the High School Agri-

to what the result would be, but we
got busy and are quite well satisfied
with our first issue.
The question now arises as to
whether we shall continue our paper
or let it drop. So far as we know,
there is no high school agricultural
paper being published in this or any
of the surrounding states. Such
paper would help to give our school
prestige over other schools of its
kind, and would go long way to-
wards advertising our community. We
as class are making a study of To-
cal farms and farming conditions,
and the things we lean should be
passed on to our parents and friends.
Therefore, we as a class believe that
this paper will be of benefit to the
school. the town ard to the surround
ing community. and we are rlann ng
to publish at least SIX aore issues.

REBELS PLEDGED TO DESTROY
THE AMERICAN STATE.

The hardest blow that has been
dealt to Bolshevism and Communism
in America was Secretary of Labor
Wilson's recent declaration that
America is not prosecuting those
agitators because they are starting
new political party in America, but
because they are rebels, violent reyo-
lutionaries who are preparing at this
very moment to overturn this demo-
c1atic government by force of arms,
as in Russia.
Some very decent citizens have had
doubts about this deportation bust
ness, this arrest of Americans who
are thickly smeared by Bolshevism
and I. w. W.ism. This is land of
liberty and they don't believe in jail
ing other citizens for their opinions.
Secretary Wilson has knocked that
argument into cooked hat. 1t is not
a party or radical group of people
who are being prosecuted. It is pure
ly case of this democratic govern
ment protecting itself against armed
insurrection, protecting our one hum
dred million peaceable people form
the horrors Of civil war and the she'd
ding Of innocent blood.
Here are couple of pieces of
proof. When this so-called "com-
munity party" whose members are
now being arrested right and left,
was organized in Chicago last Sep
tember, it adopted the following as
among it's principles for "direct" ac-
tion in the United States:
Parliamentary representatives Tin
congress and legislatures) Shall Not
Introduce or Support Reform Meas
ures. Parliaments Congress and
legislatures) shall be utilized to as
sist in organizing the working class
against capitalism and The State"
And here is another:
Communism does not propose to
capture the bourgoise parliamentary
state, but to Conquer and Destroy It."
Still one more:
"The communist party alone is
capable Of mobilizing the proletariat
(workingman) for the revolutionary
mass struggling to Conquer The Pow
er of The State"
