One of the first men of note to
sound a warning against any grow
ing feeling calculated to estrange
the farmer from the business man
Is Otto II. Kahn. one of the wealth
lest and most astute financiers in
the country.
Mr. Kahn has set down in CON
crete form his thought in conuec-
tion with the farmer-business prob
lem and relationship. He has been
moved to do SO largely because a
number of the city newspapers In
the west recently attacked him as
being opposed to the Agricultural
Bloc
"One of these newspapers print
ed an article headed Kahn Sum
mons Business to Organize Bloc,
said MIR. Kahn. Nothing is fur
ther from the fact am opposed
to bloc activities OF all kinds. be
lieving them to be pernicious and
not compatible with our system OF
government. As u fact | particular
ly advised business not to attempt to
organize a bloc. The most essen
tial thing for all our people to rec
ognize is that In the last analysts
we are all In the same boat and
sink or swim together.
The farmer Is discon,en,cd and
under sense OF grievance with the
existing order OF things, 4 CON
tented farming population Is OF i'm

Farming is calling OF vital neces-
sity. toilsomc, none too we'll requit-

hardships. The Just grievances of
the farmer call for Immediate and
Intelligent consideration and for ef-
foctiye redress even though that
may mean the adoption of methods

palatablo TO the established ways Of
business.

higher claim than another upon
the helpful consideration Of the
state then that calling Is that OF the

There Is no adequate economic

the late war. why the world and
particularly this favored country
should not now resume the road OF
prosperity: but In order To do 80 We

the south doors Of to the drays, and
making it necessary for the draymen
and patrons of the company to either
make human beasts of burden of
themselves, or cross the tracks south
of said building twice, which tracks
are frequently blocked by freight
trains.
That this company daily, ignoring
the convenience of the public, block
AIDES the Cedar Street crossing, be-
yond reason by holding the crossing
for ten minutes with one train, and
then pulling in another without leav-
ing this crossing open long enough
for the street traffic to pass,
That this company has provided no
platform for loading and unloading
freight, but attempts to get along
with no other facility for handling
freight. except the use of portion
of the said ancient depot. That not
withstanding many cars of potatoes
and other commodities requiring load
ing or unloading direct from car to
wagon, or from wagon to car are ship
ped in and out of Julesburg every
year, this company has provided no
safe and convenient team track for
that purpose, but shippers have been
required to load at private track as
the only safe and convenient place,
That it is the judgment of the
Board of Trustees of the Town of

and modern facilities for the transac-
ton of their business with said COM

ALASKA LECTURE
GIVEN AT D. E.
JONES HOME

Last Monday evening at the D. E.
Jones residence in this city, Mr.. c.
A. Smith of Du Bois, Pennsylvania,
who is visiting with his cousin, Mrs.
J. c. Penney, and family on the south
table, gave a very interesting lecture,
using stereoptican slides, depicting
scenes of Alaska, in his illustration of
the North Country.
A number of people were invited to
attend the lecture, which was more or
less of a private affair. Beginning
with choice pictures of the beautiful
sunset on Puget Sound and of Sno-
qualinis, the audience was held spell
bound for about two hours, while Mr..
Smith very capably told of the life,
climate and industry of Alaska. He
was aided with the stereoptican pic
lures selected from a collection of
over six thousand choice views of that
country.
Mr.. Smith was one of the first men
to go to Alaska in the rush of 1897,
and has been back there many times
since. He left Anchorage the first
of this year. After hearing his lee
ture one cannot help but know that
he has had many and varied expert
ences during his explorations, and his
lecture is so complete, altogether a
topic of such magnitude, that in spite
of all one has read and heard, per-
haps seen personally, cannot fail to
be impressed with how impossible it
is to thoroughly know country COW
ering such vast area of ice and
snow, and that what Mr.. Smith has
to offer eclipses all the information
one has had previously.
We are informed that the C. E. of
the Congregational church will spon-
sor this lecture to be given in a more
public manner at the Congregational
church in the near future. Watch the
Grit-Advocate for definite announce
ment.
