FRIDAY, JUNE Is, 1920.

over the government of the state of
Washington, as it has done in North
Dakota the business men and prom.
erty owners of this state will be en-
tirely responsible. They have the
example of North Dakota before
them and the situation is entirely in
their own hands
The Townley political machine
gained its first foot-hold in North
Dakota by the election Of a nonpar-
tlsan league governor and the same
plan is being followed in this state.
Governor FIazier was elected in
North Dakota on the Republican tic
ket and ii is the purpose of the non
partisan league to elect a governor il
the state of Washington by captur-
ing the Republican primaries. They
are organized for the fight and the
opposition 20 socialism is divided
Under such conditions there can be
but one result. Unless the conser-
'"NAN cS are dplt W unite as SOllulN
as the radicals are already united
the Republican nominee will be the
candidate who secures the socialist
endorsement
The business men and property
owners of the state of WASHINGTON
must organize and organize quickly
II they expect to escape the fate t.
has overtaken business in the state
of North Dakota
This is no time to hide behind cash
registers. The merchant who heSi-
tates to take part in politics for fer
that he may lose the sale of 4 rcd
necktie TO bolshevik has no right TO
be in business in these troublesome
times.
This is the fight of every good citi-
zen in the state of Washington and
the man who fails to do his pant is
lending just that much assistance To-
the other side.
Every socialist, every bolshevk
and all red flag followers of every
shade and description will be on the
firing line in this fight
Where are you going to be. Mr..
Business Man?

Chehalis Bee Nugget: Business
men may evade their responsibilities
in government and politics. and too
large percentage of them do on ac-
count Of business rush, but they can
not evade the consequences of their
negligence. The business men Of
North Dakota neglected to exercise
their share Of the responsibility of
government in that state, and thereby
permitted the destructionists to gan
control of that state. And today they
are moving heaven and earth to free
their state from the blasting conse-
quences of their own neglect
The blow is impending in Wash
ington. Having MIXED North Dako-
ia about dry, and the leadership fac
ing discredit,. a new field must be ex-
plotted by the nonpartisan league
and triple alliance organizations, and
the battle is on in Washington
These people freely admit that they
NAP'NN W STt ilito ill' ltpuDlltdD pr
maries and name their men, using
the direct primary law to capture the
machinery Of what they consider the
dominant party. Heretofore business
men and others have been Indifferent
to the primary election, and yet it i
a most important part of the govern
ment. If the loyal citizens. who are
vitality affected continue to remain
Indifferent, then they must be pre-
pared to accept the results. The ma
jority of our people are of course 10y
al and awake, but the threatened de
stroyers are organized thoroughly
and our citizenship generally is not.
Valuable time has already been
lost by the substantial and patriotic
citizens, but the fight is not IRE
trievably lost, and if the voters of
the state-all the voters-want to
save Washington from socialistic eX-
perimentation, l. w. W.-ism, radical
domination, etc, they must act, and
they must go to the ballot baxes and
exercise their duties and privileges
as voters, and part of our govern
ment. Use some of the same vim If
this matter that you use in your owr
private business affairs.

LIVE STOCK DECREASING

A falling off in the numbers of cat
tie and hogs in the United States oc-
CURED during the first four months
of this year, as compared with the
like period last year, according to re-
ports of special livestock reports Of
the Bureau of Crop Estimates, Unit
ed States Department of Agricul-
ire.
In the case of hogs, the births dur
ing January, February, March, and
April were about 10 per cent fewer
than in the same months last year
The marketings have fallen off about
Is per cent; the farm slaughter was
about the same in both seasons; but
the deaths on farms this year are
over 40 per cent heavier than last
year to May !. Taking into consider
alton both the births and the deaths
from all causes), it appears that
there has been a relative reduction
Of about 5 per cent during the first
four months Of this year a. compared
with the trend during the first four
months Of last year.
The birth of calves from January
to May ! were about % per cert
fewer this year than last year. The
net disposition of cattle by market
ings, from slaughter and deaths was
about 9 per cent greater than last
year; it appears that there has been
a relative reduction of about 6 per
cent in total number of cattle as com
pared with last year during the four
months January to May !.

following extract from an editorial
appearing in the Country Gentleman
of January 10, 1919, sums up the
situation
Milo D. Campbell speaking for
one of these farm organizations, said
in an open letter to the great labor
chief, You are driving runaway
team. We would like to help you
stop the runaway but we don't want
to ride in your wagon to do it..
This expresses much in the homely
but vivid language OF the farmer.
Organized labor is playing for high
stakes just now. 1t has so long ago
passed the point Of a Giving wage
that it has drawn almost all the loose
labor off the farm and has even
taken many of the owners. Nobody
wants to work on the farm any more
and labor now seems to aspire to the
power to dictate not only the terms
of employment but the conditions
and restrictions under which society
may exist.
Finding a too-heavy task on the
hands, the laborer naturally invites
the farmer, whom he not only secret
ly but openly despises, to help him
out on a difficult job
You have not noticed any radical
threats from the labor leaders since
the farmers refused to meet with
them. The steel strike and the coal
strike have been called off, but the
labor leaders declare they will con-
tinue to organize the industrial
forces so they will be able to call a
bigger and more successful strike
The Triple Alliance, which is an
other name for the Non-Partisar
League, is a real menace to the
farmers of this state The Alliance
together with the labor organiza-
tions, demand that the government
adopt the Plumb plan for handling
the railroads and other industries
Notice has been served on congress
/ that if this plan is not adopted, a
congress will be elected that will
adopt it. They stand for what they
term the cooperative Common
/ 81
/ ism.
The men who are back of the
Farmers Union in Whitman county
have no axes to grind. Their only
object is to protect the government
and the agricultural interests in
which they are engaged.
The Farmers Union does not wish
to interfere with the farmers in the
running of their own business When
you attend the meetings we do not
talk warehouses or a Temple of Ag-
riculture to you.
During the war the man who did
not support the government was
termed a Stacker" We believe the
same conditions apply to the farmer
who receives benefits from the farm
organizations and refuses to support
them.
Mr. Farmer, don't be a slacker
Don't bite the hand that feeds you
/ TOin the Farmers ITnioni II ic n dut>y
you owe to your country. your fam
/ lily, your fellow-farmers and to your
self.

THAT OF PAST YEARS
Many New Students Enroll-Total
of 1920 Had Registered Monday
at Noon

Enrolment for the second semes-
ter began Monday and was well
along towards completion last night
Late figures are not available, but
indications are that they will far
exceed last years record.
OF the 1929 students enrolled by
Monday noon, SO were new, accord
ing to announcement made from
Secretary Isaac's office.
This is the largest number of new
students to enroll the second semes-
ter for the past two years In Janu-
airy, 1913, the records show so new
students, while last year at the open
ing of the second semester there
were 63 new students. The total
number of registrants for 1918 mid
year was 791, due to the war condi-
tions. while for last year there were
1864. This year for only the first
half day of registration the enroll
ment already shows a considerable
gain over the past mid-year semes-
ter.
A large percentage of new stu
dents are from within the state,
while many are coming from nearby
states. Three students from south
ern California have enrolled so far
with several from Oregon, Idaho
and Montana.

HIGGINS PICKS REDS
TO COME BACK AGAIN
Yankee Chief Says Champions
Should Win Another Flag.
Manager Moran Has Well-Bafaneed
Pitching Staff, Most Important
Factor on Ball Team-Can
Wait Out Opposition.

Manager Miller Higgins, Of the
New York Americans, believes that
the Reds are going to repeat their
success of last season and win another
pennant.
Hugs team played the Reds series
of games in southern Florida, and, at
the conclusion of the engagement, the
clever leader of Colonel Ruppert's
team did not hesitate to say that the
champions should come back again
this year. This is pretty good dope,
coming from Higgins, who is naturally
of a reticent disposition and seldom
expresses himself strongly in the way
of making predictions. After looking
over Manager Morans men Hug de-
clared himself as follows: pat has
fine pitching staff, and we all know
The St. Charles herald. [volume] (Hahnville, La.) 1873-1993, 1920-06-19

that that is the most important thing
on a ball club. In fact. it is absolutely
essential to success through long
season.
II have seen enough Of three pitch
ers to feel sure that they will deliver
the goods, just as they did last year.
Moran has a well-balanced staff, with
a goodly number of right-handers and
southpaws of class, and he has shown
that he knows how to handle pitchers
as well as any manager in the bust
ness. The excellence of his pitching
staff enables him to use the best and
most scientific methods at the bat.
With weak pitching manager must
depend on smuggling and getting over
as many runs as possible. But the
Red pitching is good enough to allow
the use of the waiting game and the
one-run game. l noticed that Pat has
taught his men to wait out opposing
pitchers, and have no doubt he prof
its largely by their ability to do so.'
