PROGRAM
Will Enlist Progressives
in Fight Against
Harding
(By Universal Servlce)

CHICAGO.-Third party head
quarters as local officers of the COM
mittee of forty-eight have come to
be known, Thursday announced
steps toward coalition with the non
partisan (farmers) league which
would mean political control of the
entire northwest for the new party.
Forty-eighters claim the deal is as
good as made.
Still another important announce
ment told of a definite program for
the enlistment of all progressives in
the third party fight against the Re-
publican nominee, Warren G. Hard
ing. The actual drive will open the
minute the Democratic national con-
yentton has named its candidate at
San Francisco.
The negotiations are already on
between representative of the COM
mittee and the NOn-partisan leagu-
ers. The leaguers, it is understood,
are asking place on the ticket for
their governor of North Dakota,
Lynn j. Frasier and incorporation
of their political ideas in the third
party platform.
With the leaguers will come the
labor party which has grown to such
in the middewest in late
years. The farmers and the laboring
men are already working politically
under a cooperative agreement
Illinois labor leaders today are cam
paigning in North Dakota for Gov
ernor Frasier's reelection.
The middle west labor men have
long been out of sympathy with
5 m ue Gompers' Non-partisan
organizaed within the
American Federation of Labor. They
have kept the labor party of Illinois
alive despite Mr.. Gompers' active op-
position since John Fitzpatrick made
his race for Mayor of Chicago.

Renve County is conducting its Farm Blu
reau Membership campaign, and Judging from the
following paragraphs which appear in all the pa
pers of the County, in an article relative to this
drive, Renville is a bit 'cocky" about what she
is going to do.
Redwood county puts it's drive
as Renville county has finished. 1t is rumor-
ed that Mr.. Norris who was formerly county
agent here, has a bet with Mr.. French, a
former county agent of Redwood county, a
nice big box of cigars, that Renville county
trims up Redwood county in the membership
drive to the tune of about $50. Personally, we
don't give whoop if Bill loses the cigars be-
cause he is too far away for US to get any Of
them.
"But we have never seen the time yet when
Redwood county could get anything over on
Renville county, least of all in anything
nected with farming. All farmers are urged
when they out in your own township and
to get behind the movement and boost it
through to great success
Now we know nothing about this said "Bil"-
don't even know whether or not he pays his bets
But we do know that if Fred l. French says that
Redwood County will win out by at least hun
dred and fifty members, it will win out by al
least that many. We also know that this Farm
Bureau movement is without doubt one of the
best movements ever undertaken by the farmer:
of the United States and that every farmer will
be wise to get on the band wagon early-so as t
get good seat.

The time is drawing nigh when income
blanks will have to be filled out, but it is quite
apparent that the farmer will not figure in
this procedure to anywhere near the same
tent as last year. The prices which his pro-
ducts have commanded are so low that they
will not pay the cost of production and to say
the least he should be given the consideration
of being furnished with blank that would
not necessitate the hiring of an attorney to
fill it out.-Mapleton Enterprise.
Evidently the bankers about Mapleton are no
SO gracious, patient, and long suffering-as the.
are here. And do ours get 'the hire?" Every
one who has paid one of them for this annua
service, please raise the right hand.

THE WISE MAN AND THE FOOL.

~ NOE upon time there lived whose
J sole and soul ambition was to acquire
riches.
He counted the pennies, figured the cost, and
shaved to the last cent. He denied himself and
his family the ordinary pleasures of life in order
to swell his bank account. He wore threadbare
clothing, and snarled at every public improve
ment. And when his time to pass out of
this life, he went to his grave unwept, unhonored
and unsung, and the heirs had fine time with his
money. But folks said he wise man!
In the town, man resided whose sole
claim t. wealth was opulence of good cheer. He
believed in the community in which he resided,
and wanted to see it prosper and progress. Out
of his scant store, he gave generously to charity
and to every worthy cause. He was ever ready
with helping hand and smile that brought good
cheer. And when he received his summons to de-
part, the community mourned the loss of a good
friend. Which was the wise man, and which was
the fool Fired Hadley

THE BUDGET SYSTEM.

n n 1NNEAPoLIs, like thirty or forty other
NI American cities, has adopted the plan of
a community welfare budget to raise
money for the support of charitable and other
public welfare institutions and causes
And the plan works we'll there, as it is working
in the many communities that have adopted it.
Before beginning the present campaign to raise
the amount of the combined budget of it's chart
table and public welfare causes the MINNEAPOLIS
budget committee wrote all the principal contri-
butors, asking which they prefer; the budget plan,
the old way when each institution raised it's
money as best it could, and contributors were
called upon many times each year as there are
causes seeking contributions from the public
The replies were virtually unanimous. The
budget plan was favored and the thought Of re-
turning to the old aimless system was intolerable
The budget plan, when it includes all causes, as
it should makes solicitation and one contribu-
ton year do for all.
1t does what it is impossible for the individual
contributor to do-insures that the money asked
for is needed and is properly expended.
BY relieving the managers of charitable and
welfare causes of the obligation of raising funds,
it enables them to give their whole time to the
work of their institutions.
It greatly increases the number of contrbu-
tors by making it possible for small givers to
have their share.
1t fully supports deserving institutions and
causes, and 1t insures that the gifts Of the gener

A THANKSGIVING.

Long have lived and sought to know the value Of
things,
To know the gold from the tinsil, to judge the
clowns from the kings;
Love have known and been glad of, joys of the
earth have been mine
But today do give my thanks for rarer gift
; and fine;
For the friendship of good women, Lord, hath
been since the world hath breath,
Since the woman stood at the woman's side to
comfort through birth and death
You have made bond of mirth and tears for
ever and for Aye
For the friendship of true women, Lord take
you my thanks today.
Now much have / found to be glad, much have l
sorrowed for,
But naught is better to hear than the foot of a
friend at the door;
And naught is better than to feel the touch of
sister hand
That says, "What are words between us-we
know and understand"
For the friendship of true women, Lord that has
lasted since time began,
That is deeper far and finer far than the
For the tie of kinshp wonderful that holds us
as blood bonds may
For the friendship of true women, Lord, take
you my thanks today.
Many the joys have I welcomed, many the joys
that have passed,
But this is the good unfailing and this is the
peace that shall last
From the love that dies and the love that lies and
the love that must cling and sting
Back to the arms of our sisters do we turn for
comforting.
For the friendship of true women, Lord, that hath
been and shall be
Since woman stood at woman's side at the
Of Calvery;
For the tears we weep and the trusts we keep and
the self same prayers we pray
For the friendship of true women, Lord, take
you my thanks today.
