Here's a Satisfied Farmer.

With many complaints registered
against almost everything these days,
1t is quite refreshing to meet up with
someone who talks in satisfied way
and also to be content with his sur
roundings. G. A. Hunter, who farms
on one of w. II. Johnson's places on
Garnet Mesa is the farmer we have in
mind. Mr.. Hunter came into the Inde-
pendent office Thursday and when
asked regarding his farm transactions
this year, he said, II have nothing
to complain about. | received very
fair return for my work, | consider
Mr.. Hunter further added that what
was needed in America today was n
closer study by the individual of his
surroundings; that we should cultivate
spirit of love for America and all
American institutions. Compare CON
ditions" he said, "in this country with
Europe: we have many, many things
for which we should be thankful.
This is a day when America needs
careful leaders; we do not need any
, theorists at this time"

TALK AND ACTION

You can find many towns that have
talked and talked and talked about de-
sirable projects for a score of years,
but have accomplished little or moth
ing. If the same energy that had been
put into talk, had been used in actual
work, they would have made these
improvements and would have gotten
them out of the way, and would have
been ready for something else.
The majority of towns awake from
their slumbers long enough so they
are willing to talk about progress. But
such talk often seems to be merely a
form of amusement, and there in no
achieving energy beyond it.
Fortunately here in Delta there
have been a good number of folks
who have been willing to act as well
as talk. But we have our share of
sleepers who are always willing to
rouse up enough to talk about pro-
gress, but they rarely do anything
about it.

expect to win. Mr.. Vivian said that

the things which would be put into
effect this coming year, and several
were asked for their views regarding
matters pertinent to the conduct of
the coming campaign. He urged every
member of the Republican party to
take hand and impressed the impor-
tance OF the coming election upon
every one present.

WHO is BOSS OF AmERlcA7

Whether the United States is to de-
termine it's own immigration policy or
have that policy dictated by European
people who want to come here, is the
question presented by the excess num-
bers of immigrants now coming to this
country. Recently there arrived in
American ports 1000 would-be immi-
grants in excess of the number that
can be admitted under the law. Thus
Is presented for determination the
question whether the law of the Uni
ted States shall prevail or that law
shall be set aside and nullified because
1000 people want to come in.
OF course, the plea is that these peo-
pie have incurred the expense of COM
ing here, and have severed their home
ties. They have spent all that they
had in payment of cost of transporta-
tion. To send them back would be in
human. That is the argument to be
made in behalf of their admission,
and the same argument can and will
be made in behalf of thousands more
if these 1000 be admitted.
Four thousand immigrants more or
less may be of some consequence but
it is of relatively little consequence
beside the greater and fundamental
question whether our immigrant poll
cies are to be determined by ourselves
or by Europeans. If the United States
government is to surrender its right to
say who shall come and when and
how, then we might as well throw
down the bars entirely, repeal the i'm
migration laws and permit everybody
TO come who wants to come.
Every American naturally feels
sympathy for people who have landed
here with the expectation of being per-
mitted to stay But we have ourselves
to think of as well as them. We have
been receiving an immigration which
we have been unable to assimilate.
We are menaced by a horde of aliens
who are antagonistic to American
ideals and American institutions. The
immigration restriction law was en-
acted for the express and sole pur-
pose Of checking the flood of immi-
grafton so that we can Americanize
those we have already admitted be-
fore we add tremendously to our bur
den.
AS President Coolidge recently re-
marked, we cannot expect people who
come here in violation of our laws to
be law-abiding after they get here.
They are a constant menace to our
institutions. or course there are ex-
ceptions to this rule, but It is gener-
ally true. Men who are able to cir
cumvent the law of the land in order
to get in, will have no respect for
that law or the nation after they get
here. Having eyaded the law in one
respect, they will not hesitate to at
temp eyading in other respects.
The only safe procedure is to de-
port those who came in here Illegally.
