and Lester Jury, with Uren riding as

riding with his brother. The cars
were started at short intervals, Le-
mares car being the last TO start.
He passed all other cars and was just
about to pass the Jurys, who led in
the race. when the accident occurred.
II seemed that because of the dust
the two cars swerved together just
close enough to touch and then both
shot off the road into the sag brush.
Jury's car apparently had a clear
er path and Lester Jury was thrown
clear with the impact. Joe Jury

each was required TO put up a five

Gratis voted for Mr.. Kopp at the re-
publican primaries in June, few will
deny that Mr.. Kopp is a republican
and has in the past been material
factor in republican success in this
section OF the state. He has said
that he stands squarely upon the re-
publican platform. and the Hawk-Eye
believes him. All indications are that
the next president viii be repub-
lican, and it is essential that he shall
have a republican congress to CO
operate with him.
This, we know, the democratic cam
didate will not do. Therefore the
duty of first district republicans
seems to US to be very plain The
national administration should not be
handicapped because Of any "peeve''
hanging over from the district pri-
mary contest The Hawk-Eye be-
Iieves that the editor of the Review
with other good republicans will also
take this view of the situation.

dissatisfaction regarding the manner

Can PAY for BRIDGES.

JEFFERSON CITY. Mo, July IL
The supreme court held that the cost
of bridges, where rendered necessary
by drainage districst, must be paid
for by the special drainage districts
land and such districts may vote
special 1evies.
In the past the cost of these bridges
has been paid by the counties. Since
1903 the county courts have been
called upon to make appropriations
for these bridges.
Judge Williamson holds that under
the law of 1913, amending the general
drainage laws, the cost Of these
bridges must be borne by the various
drainage districts.

might not be impairment to ask
why in the present case he has
called out the surface car workers

shows that he has left no oppor-
tunity unimproved to add to his
strength and capital.
For three years afterhis conyic-

capital to defeat justice by keep
ing out of Jail. Then he went in
Now he is out. The ordinary

No warning was given. The
rights OF at least half million
persons were ignored. No case
was made with the public for the
strikers under Boyle's dictator
ship. The public will form
very definite opinion of such
methods, and it will not be an
opinion of advantage either TO
BOYLE Or to the men whom he
leads.
The merits of their demands
have nothing TO do with these
facts. They are lost in the
cloudy methods. 1t is the NETT
cd of enforcing the demands
which touches the public. To
this method the death of one girl

FARMERS AND THE EIGHT-HoUR DAY.

There ought to be better and more syInpa-
Ghetto understanding between the city consum-
ers of farm products and the farmers them
selves Even those jewellers In the cities VINO
spent their early days On the farm have allowed
memories of those days 70 become 50 duIled that
they have lost sight OF the very conditions
which drove them from the farm 10 the City,
conditions which, In some respects are more
onerous now than they were al Eli earlier per-
led While those persons who have been reared
in the city are ignorant OF the &acs that farming
Is by its very nature q work Of long hours dur
irg portion Of the year, il needs only z remind
er to turn the memory Of the fa-En-bred man
back to the long hours which, in his youth, as
now were essential 10 the efficient conduct OF
the farm.
The successful conduct Of farming operations
depends greatly upon weather conditions. The
time for planting is limited 10 a comparatively
brief period Of time in the spring under the
most favorable conditions. IL portion of that
period is marked by bad weather, the planting
time is correspondingly shortened Experience
has demonstrated the time after which it is use
less to plant the different seeds. To go contrary
to the teachings of experience IN this direction
means failure to secure crop.
Following closely upon the heels Of the lat
est planting comes the period IN which the Guilt
walton Of the crops must be done, and this, too,
is but brief period, rendered still shorter
some seasons by adverse weather conditions.
Harvest time, especially as regards grains and
fruit, is as sharply defined as to length as ara
tile periods for planting and cultivating Such
crops must be gathered within few DAYS of
their rpening point or the loss will be heavy
enough to make the crop losing venture rather
than a profitable one
These are some Of the existing conditions in
the conduct of farming operations which abso-
lutely bar the introduction Of the eight-hour
day on the farm. During the six months Of the
year in which crops must be planted, cultivated
and harvested farmers and their assistants must
work more than eight out Of twenty-four hours
if crops sufficient to feed the world are to be
raised and the farmer be permitted to realize
returns which will guarantee to him a living
