''The non-partisans league is the
same old error of socialism under
new name," he said. ''Its sponsors
would unite the farmer and laborer in
a class struggle, and yet their inter-
ests are entirely opposite. The farmer
wants low wages for help, long hours,
and high prices for food; the laborer
in the city wants high wages, short
hours, and cheap food"

patton in government.
owe can secure all the refor ne
cessary by progressive, constitutional
legislation" he said.
A program for the joint benefit of
labor, capital, management, and the
public, which he outlined, included, a
living family wage for every adalt
male worker, one days rest in seven
by law, and the right to organize and
bargain collectively.
"There are too many toll gates be-
tween the farm and the fireside," he
said discussing problems of marketing
and distribution. He urged further
legislation along the lines of the pres
ent state marketing law, which he
drafted and had passed in practically
its present form.
Rural education could be bettered
by consolidating the school districts
and making the county the unit of
taxation, he said.
Senator Wilcox, who failed to Sc
cure the nomination two years ago by
440 votes, is touring the entire state
by auto, making four speeches each
day in the open air. With him are his
wife, his daughter Louisa, IA, his son
Francis, II, his secretary and driver.

BAD ROADS
GETTING
WORSE

This country probably has the worst
roads of any of the great nations of
the earth.
Americans travelling in Europe tell
US of the wonderful system of roads
in those countries-"just like house
floor"
Our returned soldiers are emphatic
in their comparisons between our roads
and those of the old countries, and the
comparisons are not fatering to us.
Just now our roads are suffering be-
cause of the cost of materials and la
Dor. Public officials do not feel war
ranted in going to the enormous ex-
pense entailed in good road construc-
ton.
Under normal conditions it costs a
lot of money to construct first-class
road. Under present conditions the
cost is simply prohibitive.
Unquestionably our roads will be-
come more dilapidated than they are
now. This must be expected.
But there's no law against cussing
the roads, as usual-if you feel like
it,
It's a big relief at times to let off
steam-and the roads can't retaliate.

in representing all factions. It's
clean creditable daily and compares
favorably with other daily newspapers
in the state for cities of this size. Our
business interests should discourage
any attempt at starting another
Daily newspaper. Our Chamber of
Commerce should discourage any such
new enterprise. If at any time the
present Daily stands in the way of the
progress of the City of Grand Rapids
they should buy him out and put in
a change of management and policy,
but encourage the starting of another
daily paper never. It would simply
spell failure to the new enterprise or
failure to the present one. Grand
Rapids can't support two daily papers.
That is out of the question. Every
where else they are consolidating pa
pers instead That is the policy and
its a good one at the present time on
account of the shortage of paper.

America a great nation. He spoke

"Jack" Henry of Rhindlander was in
this city on business the past week.
Jack left Grand Rapids twentysix
wears ago and has been here only once
or twice since he left. He says, that
ow. he hardly knows anyone and when
he left he knew nearly everybody.
Twentysix- years has made many
changes. Many of the old residents
have cashed in and gone on. The city
has made many changes for the better
and grown greater and better since
he left. He was delighted to see so
many favorable changes.

MEXICAN PAPERS
STRONG FOR FAIR
Herald Texas Exposition as Great
Trade Opening.


Heralded by newspapers throughout
Merico as an event of national I'M
portance the Mexican National Exhib.
1t at the State Fair OF Texas-Octoher
3 to "a promises to be revelation
10 those who have overlooked the art
the romance and the beautiful tradi-
tions OF the land of our southe n
+, neighbors, For the exhibit will abound
not only with examples OF Mexico's
industrial and agricultural progress,
but will contain relics and works OF
art that will be the center Of attrac-
tion to hundreds of art lovers who
will visit the Fair. In fact, one OF
the big features OF the entire State
Fair program will be the band of the
Estado Mayor. This band ranks high
among the musical organizations Of the
entire world and is well known to
readers of musical journals. Nearly
a hundred highly trained musicians
comprise this band.
From a standpoint of commerce, the
papers OF Mexico have devoted page
after page to impress upon their read
ers the Importance OF this exhibit,
II Is pointed out that this is an OPP
portunity which must not be overlook
ed to establish better relations with
business men OF the United States. A
typical newspaper story devoted to
this exhibit appeared in recent issue
OF Excelsior" OF Mexico City. The ar
ticle, in part, follows:
THE Mexican exhibition Of natural
and manufacturing products, to be
shown in Dallas, Texas, at the State
Fair this year will be more complete
and interesting than any other shown
in any foreign country.
AT present the Texas State Fair is
one of the most important in the
American Union All producers of the
United States, and merchants in gen
eral, exhibit their products, without
emitting any effort to enlarge the mar
ket for their products Every avail
able space, where this great State
Fair is going to take place, has already
been taken and every indication is
that this exposition will surpass all
previously shown.
"The city of Dallas has become the
large distributing center of great i'm
portance in the Southwestern section
OF the United States. Nearly all the
leading American enterprises have
branches in Dallas and transactions
are conducted on the same line as al
headquarters"
The paper urges that Mexico send
Its very best products to the Fair
paying particular attention to the art
collection which will be brought here
The importance Of the exhibit to
American industry can be readily seen
when one realizes that 1t is through
the medium Of the Texas jo ning
house that the majority of trade win
be conducted with Mexico and 1t is
expected that this alone will bring
hundreds of Eastern manufacturers
and industrial heads here during the
Fair.
