FINANCING THE CITY

Of course the city has to have
money to run its various departments
The funds of the city are down about
the zero mark and some way has to
be schemed to secure what is needel
The Press, however, believes it poor
way supplying the city's financial
needs by encouraging somebody to
"snitch" on some poor devil with a
family of four or five children and
having the raiding squad swoop down
on him and find half-pint of "moon"
buried in the cellar, and drag him
before the police judge and soak him
$500. If he can't pay he goes to Jail
and the family hungers, and if he
does pay it means the wife and chill
dren go without necessary clothing
and other things for a year or two.
If the city has to get its money
through means of this kind, why not
hunt out the fellows who could afford
on the eve Of prohibition to stock
the cellar with lot of the real stuff

UNIONISM'S REAL TEST
After everything is said in the way
of propaganda and done in the way
of special effort to make it good, ulti-
mate results must be counted on to
tell the story of whether or not a
cause is worth while. Every move
ment must get its final vindication or
reputation in the supreme test of
real experience.
What is the true test of trade
union effectiveness How can the
man seeking information, or the man
with doubts, decide what form of or
ganization and what methods are the
most effective to assist wage earners
in improving their conditions
Train loads of books and tons of
printed matter propounding, defend
ing or advocating some method or
another do not weigh as much in the
scales of knowledge as one establish
| ed fact.
| The test of whether trade unionism
| is sound and superior to any other
form of organization among wage
earners, is supplied by the results
secured. The test of effectiveness of
our own organization is indicated by
the hours of labor, the wage rates and
the shop conditions it has been able
| to establish. The fact that the 1920
wage rates have been practically re-
established throughout the country
and without exceptionally serious
strikes, supplies that kind of evidence
which cannot be moved or even
scratched by all the propagandists
and theorists who would advise US to
surrender the form or organization
which we have and the policy which
we have adopted, for a something
which they tell US is far superior but
which has nothing to support it ex-
cept augmentation and exortation.
The universities and thinking men
for seven or eight hundred years in
Europe devoted most of their lives to
abstract discussions about this or
that, until finally practically clea"-
thinking men established modern sci
ence is based upon facts which can
| be demonstrated. The test tube in the
laboratory, because of the results Sc
cured, is more powerful and valuable
than any other method.

NEED OF A HOUSE CLEANING
IN AMERICA
America stands for an idealism.
1t exists because humanity had and
has an ideal. Americas great mis-
sion in the world is to lead the world
toward pure things-to be before the
world an example of men and women
working on in freedom toward a
higher civilization.
That doesn't mean that America
feels superiority or rs an expression
| of superirity. 1t just means that the
conditions and the human longings
| and aspirations that brought this re-
public into being were naturally noble
| and lofty, altruistic and inspiring.
They must remain so or America win
cease to be America. 1t may retain
the name, but the name will lose its
meaning.
Crooks have been debauching the
air of America. A foul breath has
crept into government. There is a
blot on the public morality of our
country. There is a stain on the
record.
No person who understands Amer
lea and who feels in his heart what
America means could stoop to be-
trayal Of any kind. So there is no

HASKELL-THE BOOSTER!

1t is announced in an Associated
Press dispatch dated from st. Louis,
April II, that Col. w. N. Haskell,
former director of the American Re-
lief Administration in Russia, will
leave this summer for Russia ito con-
clude private contracts" for exploita-
ton of Russian resources.
Col. Haskell has been soviet de-
fender since his return to America,
though practically every other A. R.
A. man has denounced the soviets
roundly.
Not long ago former Senator Joseph
|. France, who also had been a de.
fender of the soviets, announced that
he was about to sail for Russia te
negotiate for concessions.
Which soviet apologist and de-
fender will next announce that ht
is about to sail to secure concessions
from the soviets?

POSTAL WORKERS WAGES

Postal workers throughout the
country are angry, and justly so, be-
cause post office officials claim there
can be no wage increase unless there
is corresponding increase in postal
rates.
The postal workers insist that they
are entitled to living wage, whether
the department operates at profit OF
a loss.
"We hear nothing of a self-sustain-
ing navy or army or state depart
ment," said Editor Flaherty, of the
Union Postal Clerk "The pay and
pension privilege of the admirals and
the generals are not predicated On
the necessity of showing surplus
Regardless of what the postal rev.
enues may be-whether they be large
or small-the facts stand out that the
government should pay its postal
workers an adequate wage. Then if
it is deemed advisable to maintain a
self-sustaining postal service, postal
rates can be adjusted accordingly.
ffTha am n1oyes have M control over
postal rates and they should not be
made to stand the brunt of the
effects of low-wage, low-rate policy
that amounts to virtual subsidy to
a few business concerns already opu-
lent beyond the safety point"
Editor Flaherty's reference to a sub
sidy" to few business concerns" is
based on benefits of the parcel post

UNCLE SAM TO
TAKE CENSUS
OF ALL FARMS
Agric. Department Begins
Work in January.-15,OOO
People Engaged.

The U. S. department of agriculture
begins farm census of the United
States on or near Jan. 1. Heretofore
the department took a census every
ten years, but the rapid growth in the
livestock industry made it apparent
that a more frequent census was de-
sirable.
The enumeration will require the
services of $4,000 to 10000 persons ac-
ting under 212 supervisors. Sample
missionaries will be distributed
broadcast to farmers showing various
inquiries relating to production, val
ues and expenses. The census will in
clude farm population.
The extent to which the farm OPP
orators use selling and marketing or
CARNATIONS i'll be gone into. The
type Of road to market, distance, ETC.,
will be part of each report The
hope is to determine the factors I'M

SHERIFF SELLS
FARM PROPERTY
FOR BIG PRICE
Finals Come in Foreclosures
as Nation Swings Into
Better Times.

Deputy Sheriff F. B. Calls, acting
for Sheriff Edge, held three sheriff
sales on foreclosure here Saturday af-
ternoon. The sales are some of the
last to be held in 1924 and the hope
is generally expressed that sheriff's
sales on foreclosure will soon be
things of the past. Especially so as
times are improving and the great
number of actions started to take land
back when farm defation set in has
about spent itself.
1885 acres in Secs. s and II, town
of Waterloo, sold to plaintiff for
100000. Thomas lockwood was the
buyer. Other plaintiffs in the action
were Leonard Haeffner, Geo. B. Mai
ben, Catherine Heinrichs and Mary
Heinrichs. Defendants were Jos. w.
Udelhofen and wife, Cassville State
bank, Union State bank, Potosi State
bank, Farmers G Citizens State bank
and Virgil Irish.
G. B. Monroe, plaintiff, paid $4,000
for $40 acre farm in Secs. 81 and 81
in Hickory Grove township. Writ

Lancaster and Fennimore High
! School foot ball teams finished their
season last Thursday afternoon by
playing to a z to tie on Fennimore's
field.
The day was bitterly cold and the
wind, blowing a veritable gale from
the west, made good playing almost an
| impossibility. To make matters worse
Fennimores field is laid out with
goals at the east and west ends and
| is located on a hillside so that the
east goal is many feet lower than the
west. The team defending the east
goal had not only to rush the ball up
hill but to pick and pass against a
gale which made kicking and passing
almost impossible.
Locals Win Toss
Lancaster won the toss and chose
the west end of the field, taking ad-
vantage of the wind, and Fennimore
elected to receive the kick off. Lam
caster kicked off and Fennimore
brought the ball back by a BEAUTIFUL
run almost to mid field. Fennimore
tried Lancaster's line three times
with only five yards gain and then
punted. The kick was high and the
wind brought it back almost to the
point from which it had been kicked
where it was, Lancaster's ball on Fen
nimores 40 yard line. Lancaster made
two first downs on five plays and 1T
was fourth down and yards to go
when Richardson attempted forward
pass. No one was free to receive it
and he held on to the ball so long
that he was tackled with it and lost
five yards. For the balance of this
quarter it was case OF Lancaster
rushing the ball into Fennimore's
danger zone time and time again only
to lose it and have Fennimore make
three Intellectual attempts to advance
the bali and then kick. Near the end
of the quarter Sweeney got through
left tackle for a run of 20 yards to
the five yard line but the play was
called back and Lancaster penalized
Is yards for holding in the line. The
first quarter ended with the score
Lancaster 0, Fennimore 0.
When play was resumed at the west
end of the field Lancaster made two
substantial gains but still had many
yards to go and Clementson tried a
drop kick from the 35 yard line. The
kick sailed straight for the goal posts,
but the high wind held it back and
it fell short. A Lancaster man re-
covered the ball and had been sever
al times touched but the referee ruled
that it was Fennimore's ball on her
own ten yard line.
First Half z to 0
On the first down Emerson punted
and the ball, carried by the high
wind, sailed high over the safety's
head struck the ground and went
bounding down the hillside and over
the goal line. Lancaster put the bali
in play on her own 20 yard line. Then
ensued a repetition of the first quar-
ter but with conditions reversed. Lam
caster fought fiercely in defense of her
goal and we'll up to the end of the
quarter had succeeded in keeping
