WHAT NEW YORK THINKS

New York Times-The farmers pro
pose to take charge of the senate as
they allege that once the trusts did.
Senator Kenyon announces the forma.
ton of a senatorial agrarian bloc" On
Thursday it is TO resume conferences
regarding a list of agrarian bills. Al
ready farmers claim, with the trades.
to be exempt from the antitrust laws.
Both of them are seeking further priv.
ileges. The farmers also want to shut
up produce exchanges. They also de.
mand more liberal loans than the
banks allow.
This is an incomplete list of Sena
tor KenyOn's proposals in the name
of the twenty-five senators sworn tC
live and die for agriculture. The
farmers seem now under the delusior
that there is some sort Of conspiracy
against them. They fancy that theil
production Of food is in some way
more m]eritorious than the manufac
ture of goods in industry generally
Farmers want to be subsidized o
given special privileges. But there Il
no hostility to farmers in sayin!
plainly to them that their proposal
must be considered from the viewpoin
Of general interest, and should stan
or fall on that test.

THE SERIOUS MINDED

Hendricks Pioneer-The other day
a man who committed suicide. before
doing so, wrote a note explaining why,
believing the people we're entitled to
know why he had taken himself away.
He said this world Is no place for
serious minded people" That is partly
true. People who IN habitually, or
too serious minded do not get the
most out Of this world for the reason
that they do not contribute much to
happiness In the world. They would
probably hnd that heaven Is no place
