Nonpartisans to Put North

Million Votes Worries
Old Parties.
PRIMARY ON JAN. 2S

The latest Presidential boom to
be launched. aud one Which is be-
ing watched by politicians. particu-
larly Republicans. is that of Gov.
Lynn ]. Frazier of North Dakota.
The North Dakota primary election
is to be held on January IS, and
the Nonpartisan League. which
elected Frazier governor of North
Dakota, is endeavoring to have
Frazier place his name on the Pres
Gov. Frazier become a candidate,
political observers believe the
chances of both Gen. Wood and
Gov. Lowden in South Dakota and
! neighbring States would be less
ened.
The Nonpartisan League has an
! estimated membership of 800, 600,
and. counting upon the farmer. la
bor and woman vote. leaders in the
non partisan movement declare the
! league will control more than a
| million votes in the coming cleo
tion. The league is well organized
| in North Dakota, South Dakota,
i Minnesota. Idaho and Montana. and
has either organized. or is organic
ing. in Wisconsin, Illinois. Nebras-
ka, Kansas. Oklahoma, Texas. Col
orado and Washington.
Senator McCumber, Representa-

the balance of power in the cleo
tion this autumn. Senator Nc
Cumber. although a Republican, is
strongly in sympathy with the pur-

VIII support Gov. Frazier should
the latter be a candidate for the
Presidential nomination.
Gov. Frazier's term expires this
year. but it is expected he will be a
candidate for reelection. A number
of Frazier for President" clubs have
been organized in Chicago and in the
States where nonpartisan organiza-
tions exist
The entire voting strength OF the
Nonpartisan League and the inde-
pendent labor and farm vote, which
10 a large extent is expected to In
dorse the main principles in the nom
partisan program. creates a power
that may have TO be reckoned with
by both parties. That the voting
strength of the league. IL not thrown
to nonpartisan candidate, will sc
to the political party which comes out
the most strongly for principles in
dorsed by the farming and labor eIe-
ment of the Western States is the
view of those who have made a study
of the political situation in the Da-
kotas and the adjoining territory
This means that there exists in the
Northwest potential independent
vote. more than 100000 strong, which
may go to either a Republican or a
Democratic candidate. which may
throw the political situation into con-
fusion, thus determining the result OF
the coming Presidential election in a
fashion totally unprecedented.

Conscience Guides to Belief
In Souls Immortality,
Says the Rev. D. D. Muir
at Temple Baptist Church.

The immortality OF the soul was dis
cussed by the Rev. ID. d. Muir at
the Temple Baptist Church last night
in his sermon Does Death End
All?"
THE instinct OF Immortality Is in
bred In every human being" said DR..
Muir. There Is a universal belief In
the. souls existence after death.
This Ii an old question and an old
subject. Scholars have written vol
umes on II, pro and con. II Is the
worldwide belief in a life after death
that keeps men good. according TO
their standard of morals"
DIR. Muir's sermon was based on the
Scriptural quotation, .If man die,
shall he live again?" The minister
pointed out several reasons for the
faith Of men in, post-death existence
The prophetic action Of conscience
which allows one to ASCERTAIN a diff
ference between right and wrong
forces q man to believe In some kind
of a tribunal. some future reward for
good or punishment for wrong.
I'm view OF this belief that death
does not terminate the existence Of a
person In some form. IL is well thai

THE only people who have profited

The Rev. Il NJ. Powers. In a sermon
on What About Ireland made this
statement in the Universaiist Church
last night.

DIR. Powers.

ton has kept ireland poor and dis
satisfied and has been a weakness to
the British Empire. During the war
when soldiers were needed most on
the Continent. England kept 5000 all

DR., Powers pointed out that religious
differences in Ireland were dying out
with the cooperation in industry of
both Catholics and Protestants.

Immediately upon that resolve was
described as a tragedy.

upon to choose between Christianity
and salvation. and bad living and

a mans life." said DR.. Mitchell. He

assurance how long he will live. De-

The Lord is a seeking Lord DR..
Mitchell told his congregation" but
it is necessary also for us to seek
him. The plow. cutting into the

necessary to reveal hidden treasure.
The plow of the Almighty in a SINH

That creature as small as the ant can keep cows
and milk them is certainly THOROUGH.
No ant neglects anything that an ant CAN do or
OUGHT to do. As between the thoroughness of the
locomotive and that Of the ant the ant comes first
For mysterious force inside of the ant winds it up
makes it 60 and keeps it going until it wears out
The ant has engineer to direct it, no fireman to
feed it, It beats the locomotive.
Repeat to the young man the advice, "Go to the
ant, thou sluggard," and add to it, "Get down on
your hands and knees and study the ants THOR
OUGHNESS." Then feel ashamed of yourself and
make up your mind to add to your other qualities
THOROUGHNESS the quality that FINISHES
job the quality that is to mans character what vine
gar is to the salad vanadum carbon to the steel
alloy, and temper to the steel tool.
Mr.. McCay's advice is good. And it is not the
kind of advice, often given, difficult impossible
to take.
If you say to man, "Be genius" or "Be
champion athlete" or make ten million dollars" he
may reply truly IT can't do it," or II don't know
how to 60 about it."
But any young man or woman can be thorough,
if he only WILL be thorough.
When you learn thing you CAN learn it thor.
oughly.
When you write letter, you CAN write it care.
fully, which is thoroughness in writing.
When you sweep floor, you CAN 'sweep it
Clean" which is thoroughness in sweeping.
When you commit a passage to memory, you
can learn it THOROUGHLY, the only kind of learn
ing that dscplines the mind and increases its power
Whatever you are doing you can do THOR.
OUGHLY If you choose.
And good habit Of thoroughness is as easily
acquired as any one Of the destructive bad habits
You can, for instance, criticize YOURSELF
thoroughly about twice every week, and to do that
The Washington times., 1920-11-14

close the books with two or three cents unaccounted
for. The thing must be done TO CENT, and thor
oughLy. We all know that.
But how many Of us realize the part that thor
oughness ought to play and does NOT play in each
of our own individual lives
How many know enough to treat themselves as
bookkeeper treats his accounts? How many cast
up balance with the debit on one side, the credit
on the other, showing what they HAVE, what they
LACK where they have succeeded, where they have
failed, and then get the balance RIGHT?
, A thousand do the thing ALMOST thoroughly,
for one that does the job thoroughly. Mr.. McCay,
whose pictures you see almost every Sunday selected
as his examples of thoroughness the locomotive that
pull along freight train over mountain and the
tiny ant Of which ten thousand might be crushed be-
meath the locomotives driving wheel, and the en-
gineer not know it. In sending this picture, Mr. Me-
Cay wrote message that will be useful to young
men,
1.-THE idea to get into the minds of boys and
girls is that THoRoUGHNEss is virtue in ITSELF
on big scale or small SCALE"
A good locomotive burns up every ounce Of coal
leaving only ashes transforms it into seam gets all
the power out of that steam in the cylinders applies
it to the wheels and to the pulling Of the load through
the driving shafts
But gigantic locomotive, grinding and rushing
through the country doing the work Of thousands of
horses and men, with to guide it and little
coal and water to feed it, is more remarkable than
the little ant that runs bewdered between the tracks
as the locomotive rumbles over it.
The ant is natures marvel Of thoroughness
Watch an ant with piece Of caterpillar taking it
back to the ant city. Take it from him thousand
times and thousand times he will pick 1t up and 20
on with it. That is thoroughness.
That ant keeps in captivity small insects from
it extracts for its use secretion like milk

j. Ogden Armour, whose organization is one of
the biggest in the world has written for his employees
small book called Thinking Learning and Doing"
It is made up of essays under interesting headings
for instance, Enthusiasm" Initiative" "Grow
ing" and, finally what to the egotistical human
is the most important word of all, "YOU."
FIRST of the essays in book written by one
whose success depends minute detail and the COM
plete FINISH of million jobs comes chapter
headed "THOROUGHNESS"
The business in which Ogden Armour is en-
gaged-transforming all animal food from the OK to
the chicken, oyster and egg into financial results
requires THOROUGHNESS and lots of it,
It was said long ago of the stockyards, in which
all meat packers work, that in killing pig the only
thing lost was the squeal That certainly is THOR
OUCH, and on such thoroughness, plus tremendous
organizing ability, is based gigantic fortunes built
on the meat business and aso should be stated the
tremendous efficiency that made it possible for less
than half dozen American business organizations
to feed ten million soldiers in Europe including three
million American soldiers, without any breakdown.
y, Armour knows that without thoroughness his
plant would close in week. Hoofs, bristles, bones
every part of the animal including the digestive
lining Of the pigs stomach the gall of the OK adrenal
and other mysterious glands of other animals useful
in medicine must all be saved.
5. When you realize that, from one central spot in
Chicago, food is actually distributed among all the
fifteen hundred million human beings on this earth
and that from their desks in Chicago the big Ameri
can packers control cattle grazing on South Ameri-
can pampas, and sheep feeding on the other side of
the world, you don't need to be told that THOR
OUGHNESS is necessary to that business.
s.
Every young man, if you asked him, would say:
"Of course, know you cannot run great business,
like steel company or railroad, or bank, with
out having efficiency"
The bookkeeper must cast up his balance and
make his accounts come out right to WITHIN ONE
CENT. He could not say NEARLY right" and

ALONE, is often enough to insure Improvement now.
and real success later.
There are millions that can do thing half way.
There millions who speak of "holding down their
jobs' or getting BY" The fact is, that they ara
NOT holding down their jobs Absence Of thorough
ness is holding THEM down. And in these dubious
times especially the jobs are apt to slip out from
under them suddenly
But the job does not slip away from tho thor
ough man. While attending thoroughly to one thing,
he thoroughly considers others, and when change
comes it is HE that moves to something better, not
the job that moves away from him.
Thoroughness has figured in every case of great
success Other qualities helped, but thoroughness
to success is what the bones of the skeleton are to
the body. If there were no bones in your body you
would collapse and lie helpless heap on tho ground
no matter how great your muscle or nerve force
The man that lacks thoroughness in his brain
is like body without skeleton
You read of such man as Napoleon, think Of
him as great overwhelming genius. But when you
study his life THOROUGHLY you come across the
fact that he could tell the size and location Of every
piece of artillery on the French frontiers. And
when he met a bewildered young officer who had
gone astray with his command he was able instantly
to tell him his road and start him going in the right
direction. That is THOROUGHNESS, and thor
oughness was the real Napoleon.
A good writer is thorough; he masters the Ian.
guage which is his tool chest and thoroughly devel-
ops his thought.
A good cook is thorough. She has no mistakes
or accidents" She does the thing thoroughly. Me-
chanics engineers even politicians that succeed are
all THOROUGH.
IT guess will call it day." says one kind Of
man, slamming down the desk on unfinished business
There is your failure lacking thoroughness
II will finish this job THOROUGHLY if stay
here all night" says another kind Of man. And that
kind thanks to thoroughness, will achieve the indie
pendence that let's man do as he pleases later on
Remember Grants saying about fighting it out on
one big line If it took all Summer. That was thor.
oughness Grant was thorough and, therefore, Lin
coins best general.
Practise thoroughness it is the greatest Of all
working qualities and one that ANY man can com,
IHnd, If able to command himself.
The Washington times., 1920-11-14

HAT is NOT thorough is not COM
plete.
Every man can do PART of a job;
every man can make success Of
PART of his life. But the REAL
success is only for the THOROUGH
man.

BILLIONS INVESTED IN FARMS
Magnitude of Agricultural Industry
Must Be Reduced to Figures to
Be Appreciated.

IF all the farmers In the United
States should decide TO go into some
other business-branch out, as we say
they could sell their live stock and
crops for one year, and with the mon
ey they receive buy all the railroads
in the United States, together with
all the rolling stock and other equip
ment." declared Secretary Of Agrcul-
ture Meredith before the United States
chamber of commerce at Atlantic City.
IF they wished to go out of the farm
ing business entirely, they could sell
their farms along with their crops and
live stock, and with the money they
receive, buy all the railroads, all the
manufacturing establishments. all the
mines and all the quarries in the Uni
ted States. In other words. 1t would
be Just an even trade between the
farm property and all the other pro
ductive property in the United States,
except the mercantile establishments.
They could with their income from
live stock and crops for q single year
nav practically the entire national
debt. The investment in agriculture
amounts to about 80 billion dollars.
and last year the value Of crops and
live stock aggregated IS billion dol
lars"
