Can the People Be Fooled?

Samuel Gompers and Frank Morri-
son, president and secretary respect
lively of the American Federation OF
Labor, addressed mass meetings re-
Gently to protest against "t:he nation
wide open shop movement
Mr.. Gompers said he believed that
''the American people who did so much
to defeat military autocracy in the
last war will not now consent to the
substitution in the United States of an
industrial autocracy"
Equal opportunity before the law,
before government and in the demo-
cratic production of industry-that is
what we demand and nothing less will
satisfy labor"
These men talk about equal op-
portunity before the law, industrial
autocracy and democratic production. ="
Would either Gompers or Morrison
allow any free born American citizen
to work at his trade beside one of
their union members if he did not
have card in the same union? No
they would let him starve in the street
or call a strike if an employer put
him to work Is this sample of
equal opportunity which they cry
about? Is this democratic production? ?
Or is it real labor autocracy? Let Mr.
Gompers or Mr.. Morrison answer
Would they allow = man to work in
so-called upton shop without card ?
Is it any wonder the American peo-
pie are backing the open shop move
ment when they realize that the clos
ed shop problem denies the primary
rights guaranteed every individual by
the constitution and about which Mr..
Gompers likes to pirate.
Belonging to . union be neither a
bar nor a requisite to securing employ
ment The principle of labor union
ism is fine and can accomplish much
good but the demands of labor autoc-
racy are vicious. The public is not
against the laboring man, it is against
the labor dictators who exploit both
the laborer and the public.

Stops Boring from Within.

Reports from various parts Of the
country indicate that the Non-Partisan
league is not dead and not even sleep
ing.
A new manager of the National Nom
Partisan league of Washington has ar
rived in Spokane to take charge of
headquarters and = state league con-
vention is to be held in that city the
latter part of May.
The league is preparing to fight the
new primary law relating to party
affiliation and the convention measure
passed by ythe Legislature making it
law that a candidate must have
been affiliated with a recognized par
ty for two years.
The league alleges that the purpose
of these two measures is to kill the
farmer labor party by keeping 1t off
the ballot.
This is not the case; it means that
the Non-Partisan league or any other
political organization will have to fly
under its own colors instead Of slip
ping their candidates into office under
the banner OF some other established
political party. This has been league
practice from the beginning and is
just another method Of boring from
within" which has been employed by
radical and near radical organizations
in an effort to disrupt political and in
dustrial stability.

ACREAGE ABOUT THE SAME

Such reports as had been received
/ by the State Immigration Department
| from county assessors up to May /
seem to indicate that there will be no
appreciable decrease in acreage un-
der cultivation in Colorado this year,
though earlier reports from other
sources indicated that the cultivated
acreage would be materially decreas-
ed on account of inability on the part
of farmers TO obtain needed financial
support. Reports have been received
from something more than $500 farm
ers and the total Of thcsc reports show
a larger amount of land under culti-
walton than the total shown by the
first $500 reports received last year.
Increases in cultivated acreage are
indicated for Kiowa, Baca and Las Ami
mas counties, while most of the other
counties from which partial reports
have been received show little indi-
cations of change from last year. Con
trary to the expectations of many per-
sons well informed on agricultural sub
jects, there apparently will be an in
crease in the acreage of spring wheat
as compared with Last year. A few of
the less developed counties in eastern
Colorado show increases in acreage of
winter wheat, but apparently there is
decrease in the principal winter
nF
same districts are showing increases
in acreage of spring wheat.
Preliminary reports from the census
for 1920 show that the average size
of farms in Colorado is 40S.l acres,
compared with 1881 acres in 1910.
This increase has been going on stead
lily for several years and is due to sew
eral causes, chiefly which are as fol-
lows: Most Of the homesteads that
have been filed on in the state in the
past four years have been from 800 to
$40 acres. During the past five or six
years many farmers in the non-irri-
gated districts have been increasing
the size of their farms by purchasing
adjoining land. In the leading fruit
growing districts there has been ten
dency for at least eight years to con-
solidate small fruit farms into larger
farming units. Many small fran units
in certain sections of the San Luis val
ley also have been consolidated into
larger farms within the past three
years. A number of large tracts re-
ported rs single farms in 1910 have
been broken up into smaller farms
since that time, but the effect Of this
has not been nearly sufficient to con-
teract the tendencies toward larger
FERNS ns outlined above.
