Farm Bureau Membership Drive.

Beginning Monday, March 30, the
Howard County Farmers will begin
short but thorough campaign to
complete the farm membership drive
that was interrupted by severe wea-
Their last fall. In some communities
every farmer is already member of
the farm bureau. However, in Paris,
Saratoga and jamestown townships
no membership work has been done
on account of the weather.
Over $4,000 farmers already be-
long to the State Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton and considerably over 1,000,-
900 are represented by the American
Farmbureau Federation. The idea of
county state and national farm bur-
eau is taking hold on farmers in such
way that they have built up one of
the strongest organizations of any
kind in the country and by far the
strongest farmers organization that
has ever existed.
In order to bring the work Of the
farm bureau closer to the members,
the Howard County Farm Bureau is
planning a series Of township meet
ings so that the township can elect
their own officers and outline plans
for work that they wish to have car
ried out. 1t is expected that crop inn
provement, drainage, soil improve
ment, boys and girls club work, mar
keting, etc. will be some of the things
that will be demanded.

Ak Recospition Of the Irish Republic

An audience that almost filled thu
opera house last Friday evening thor
oughly enjoyed the splendid program
given by the pupils of the Assumption
school which served as fitting pre-
liminary to the masterful address by
M. v. Cannon of Davenport on mod
ern Ireland" The speaker held the
closest attention of his audience while
in an unimpassioned manner he pre-
sented Ireland's claim for independence.
He reviewed the history Of his native
land and related the injustice perpe-
trated upon helpless people by their
powerful conquerors. But in spite OF
all efforts to crush out the spirit OF
nationality. the Irish race has retained
it's identity and now demands in the
name of justice the rights which have
been accorded to other races.
At the conclusion of the address Rev.
Father Ryan presented set of reso-
lutions. John F. Murtha moved their
adoption. the motion was seconded by
VIM. DAILY and by practically a unani
nous rising vote they were adopted.
The resolutions are as follows:
Whereas, the Irish Nation has long
since exercised the inalienable right of
self:determination by an eighty per cent
vote of the Irish people under the forms
and guarantees of British election laws;
Whereas, an avowed purpose Of the
war was to enforce the rights of self:
determination and ''consent OF the gov
erned;" and to extend these selfevident
rights to the oppressed peoples OF the
earth;
Whereas, in the late war, American
citizens of Irish descent and extraction,
in large numbers, have rendered their
services, contributed their fortunes, and
sacrificed their lives in the sacred cause
of international justice to make the
world safe for democracy;
Be it therefore resolved, that we, citi-
zens of Cresco, Iowa, in meeting as
sembled, in the opera house, on the 10th
day of March, 1920, earnestly and re-
spectfully ask our Chief Executive and
the American Congress to redeem the
foregoing pledge of Americas sacred
honor to the American people and to
the world in the manner following:
First: Immediate recognition Of the
Government de jure now established in
the Republic of Ireland.
Second: Immediate enactment of the
Mason bill now pending in the House
of Representatives.
Be it further resolved, that copies of
these resolutions be transmitted to the
President of the United States, to each
United States Senator from Iowa, to
our Congressman, and to the local
press for publication.
