Her stay in Decorah was necessarily
breif as she had only week to di-

IOWA FARMERS
ARE LEADERS
People Of the State Can COngratu.
late Themselves That Farm
Bureau Effort is Doing
Such Wonderful Work
For State.
THEY ARE IMPROVING
THE FARMING BUSINESS
They are Out to Boost Their Own
Business by Sane, Common
y Sense, Practical Business
- Methods.

Iowa people can congratulate
themselves that it's farm bureau
movement has taken the form Of
sane and common sense business ef-
fort to improve the farming business
instead of the chimerical, socialistic
and dangerous program of the nom
partisan league of North Dakota
which has come very close to cap
turing the republican party of the
neighboring state Of Minnesota in
spite of the fact that some of its
leaders have actually been tried and
found guilty Of disloyal utterances
during the war.
In the recent primaries in Mime
sofa the socialistic farmer movement
came within a very few votes Of
naming one Of its own radicals for
governor on the republican ticket.
As 1t was the non-partisan league
candidate carried ffty-four out of
eighty-six counties for governor and
half of the congressional districts Of
that state. The league has nomin-
ated its members for ninety out of
l31 places to be filled in the lower
house OF the Minnesota legislature.
Here In Iowa the farm bureau in
Auence is credited with having tip
ped the convention balance to Ken
DALI tor governor which was its
right to do but the difference is
made up in tho political and econo-
mic doctrines Of the two organiza-
tons. In tho northern states social
;stic demagogs or agitators influence
the prejudices of renter class OF
farmers against all business enter
prises which are not on that farm.
According to their doctrine every
man who makes his living by rem
dering business service to farmers
in free competition with the world
is q leech upon the farming business
and all kinds of paternalistic, SOC
ialistic impracticable schemes are
financed with public money until
taxes in North Dakota have more
than doubled. So great a public
menace has this modern populistic
movement become that the saner
element has caused the democrats
and repuhlicans IN cOmhina In Mort n
Dakota to drive. the radicals out.
Here in Iowa the farm bureau
movement is being managed by far
mers who own their own farm. They
understand the rights of private
property and the economic necessity
for the private ownership of prop.
erty. They are out to boost their
own business by sane, common
sense and practical business meth
DDS; not to destroy all other bust
ness that heretofore has been rend.
ering service which individual farm.
ers have considered SUFFICIENTLY
valuable to attract their patronage
What they do they do on their own
resources as capable business mer
should do and they do not seek the
s0cialistic resort to government
ownership and government tax sup.
port to boost the advantage of theil
business class.

So he sent over . team that filled
the bill. But we notice the Cresco-
ties kicked about the matter after
their idols were smashed>to smither-

two local men, (Weiser and Losen)
on the team. but at that we had
CrescO beaten also, as they had only
one local man (Davis.)
But that is neither here nor there

the best team won.
The iron man Dye was in the box
for Cresco and he was touched up
for thirteen safe swats, doubles, trip
