The American Legion post NJ
Mason City has passed a resolution
OF protest against refusal OF city
commissioners TO permit the Service
Star LEGION 10 plant memorial trees
at q spot selected by its officers in
one Of the large parks there. The
trees would be in memory OF the
men from that city who fell In battle
on the battle fields OF France or lost
their lives while serving with the
navy In Atlantic waters.
City officials say that the particu-
lar spot is to be used for a pen for
a herd of euffaloes which is to be
started there. The legion post and
the Service Star organization sug-
gest that a different place be secured
for the buffaloes.
The city officials best let the boys
have the plot, II not thru the feeling
Of pride and obligation toward the
men who followed the nag with the

of the city politician.

herd and the boys who desire the
plot in order 70 memorialize those
who lie on the battleflelds there
should be no quibbling or hesitation.

HRooKHARr IN MARSHALLTOWN.

Smith Brookhart, candidate for
senator from Iowa, spoke in the city
last evening to 125 persons. If the
interest displayed In Mr.. Brookhart's
appearance as a candidate for United
States senator is TO be measured by
the size Of his audience such inter-
est must appear negligible in city
Of tho first class and county of be-
tween $4,000 and 40 900. The fact Is
that very little notice seems to have
been given to the candidacy. the
speech or the candidate.
Now Mr.. Brookhart has a perfect
right to run for senator or any other
Office open to q ci'izen OF this coun-
try. That is one Of the inherent
rights Of American citizenship and
guaranteed by the statutes. Nsbody
is finding any fault with Mr. Brook
hart for running for office.
The trouble Is with the platform
and purposes upon which and with
which Mr.. Brookhart is running.
Some serious fault also is found with
his oonpanionshlp in pobsscs and
the management which p esents him.
Old Jim Pierce, the Homestead and
So Zzs!ne. attachments are not pre-
cisely tho sort that appeals to Iowans
al sponsors and guardian angels Of a

Then, too, the comparison between
the abilities and general capacity
and statssmanlilke repute Of man
Like Albert 3. Cummins and another

GET READY FOR PAYDAY.
[Wallaces' Farmer.]

Mr.. Z. B. Wilson. who wrote the
series Of articles of promotion
schemes, printed In Wallaces' Farmer
not long since. recently had an ar
ticie in the Northwest Banker, in
which he points out the need of
getting ready to meet future pay
ments on those stocks. While the
article was intended especially for
the consideration of the country
bankers thruout the state, it is a
matter of interest also to all those
who have obligated themselves by
issuing promissory notes as part
payment for stocks purchased.
1t is estimated that during the
year 1919 the people OF Iowa sub
scribed right around two hundred
million dollars for promotion stocks
OF one sort and another. AS a rule,
the cash payment on these stocks
was about 70 per cent. The buyer
gave his notes for the balance Of
Ills subscription. The solicitor Of the
company then took these notes to
the local banker and sold them at a
discount large enough to net the
bank all the way from to 10 per
cent In many cases the banker gave
to the company q certificate of de-
post drawing 1 per cent interest.
This scheme works all right for a
time, but after a while those notes
will become due, and II the buyers

astic support Of his own state. With
out this support he will not be seri-
ously considered by the San Fran
cisco convention.
The result of this election only en-
phasises anew the fact that a poll
teal machine cannot be constructed
In state and maintained for any
length of time without creating a
counter organization. Hitchcock has
been playing the political game in
Nebraska for number of years.
Like other politicians he is frail in
some directions and fallible in others.
His opponents had no trouble in
picking flaws in his record. He has
accumulated a host OF political enc
mics. or course. Hitchcock has
strength. Some of his work has been
creditable. He has had patronage to
distribute and Q newspaper devoted
wholly TO his political aspirations.
Naturally, these instrumentalities at
tract a following. But, it is made
manifest in this primary that the
Hitchcock machine in Nebraska has
accumulated more opponents than It
has supporters. The senator's en-
barge bill gained for him the German
vote ii his state and election to the
United States senate in one cam
paign. He is now called upon to pay
q price for this vote. In this case the
price vas the chance CO securing a
presidential nomination. And his
political opponents may not regard
the account wholly squared yet. The
people of Nebraska, democrats and
republicans alike, are loyal. Not only
this, but they are sensitive on sub
jects touching loyalty. The Hitch
cock record on that embargo bill was
offensive to thousands Of democrats
in Nebraska. They didn't like it.
This appeal for the German vote did
not look good TO them. Hitchcick's
chickens are simply coming home to
roost.

OVERALL VAUDEVILLE.

Every man should have a pair or
two OF overalls; perhaps 1t would be
in the spirit OF the times to include
every woman IN the list of such
vnneT5.
They should be just overalls, reg
ular blue denim or khaki overalls.
Those garments are still cheap. The
reason for overalls is work. usually
dusty work that calls for cheap and
durable clothes to do 1t in. The first
name of overalls Is work. That is
what overalls are for.
Buy EN-, OF course. to work IN.
Work in them. Overall clubs which
would have for their objective more
home gardening. more working about
the hen yard. more cleaning UP
around the place, more production OF
all kinds in all occupations would be
a blessing.
But the fad which some people
who hire every blade OF grass cut
and raked off their lawns. who hunt
some one to spade a plot in the gar
den or prepare a flower bed. who
haven't had a blister on their hands
since they were kids. that manner OF
overall clubs is pure poppycock.
Bankers going to their business in
overalls, business men in overalls,
professional men In overalls, that is
boys play where 1t isn't horseplay.
Il would be better for a large mum
Der of men whose abdomens stick
out in front Of them like promon-
tories II they would wear overalls a
couple OF hours a day and wear them
for the purpose overalls are intended.
The trouble with those fellows Is
that while they may wear denims as
a fad their lazy souls and flaccid
muscles abhor hard work. AS the
doctors say OF certain medicines they
have an Intolerance" for It
In politics, society, business, all
the activities Of the present the cry
ing need ia for common sense and
settled purpose. The overall clubs
are mere vaudeville.

Of the stock do not have the money.
they will be asking the country
banks to renew their notes. This
added to tho other factors which are
now working overtime to make tight
money. may cause embarras sment
in many counties in iowa. OF course,
the purchasers OF these stocks were
fed on the hope that before the
notes given would become due, they
would be getting in nice, fat divi-
dends. This Is not likely to happen
in even one case out Of ten. When

motion expense, it will take 1t a
long time TO make back this % per
cent. and II VIII not be safe in pay
ing any dividends until after the
capital Is made good.
What can be done to meet this
situation? II any readers of Wallaces'
Farmer. contrary to our oft-repeated
advice, have notes out for the pur-
chase OF promotion stock, our ad-
vice to them is to get their affairs
in shape to meet these notes when
they become due. In perhaps a very
few cases fraud may be shown and
payment may be avoided: but in
most cases IL will be difficult TO
show fraud even where It was prac =
ticed; and the notes being in the
hands of third parties. collection will
be enforced. In some few cases money
spent in fighting may mean money

penditures. There is every indica-
tion that money VIII be tight the re-
mainder Of this year. and interest

WHAT HIT HITCHCOCK.
council Bluffs Nonpareil. ]


Many political surpries are de-
veloped during the course Of a poll
teal campaign. The Nebraska pri-
mary furnished several. Chief anon &
these is the practical victory Of the
Bryan wing of the democratic party
over the Hitchcock element. Bryan
will go to the national convention OF
his party as delegate. 1t was the
plan of the Hitchcock element TO
keep Bryan outside the delegate Sec
ton Of the convention, for he de-
clared openly in the campaign that
he would not vote for the nomination
Of Hitchcock for president.
The returns are as yet incomplete
but they indicate a split delegation,
Hitchcock gets only q part of. the
delegates from his own state. The
effect of this primary, therefore. Is to
practically eliminate Hitchcock as a
presidential possibility. If he ever
had a show for the nomination 1T
would have been with the enthusi-
