FIRPO AND WILLS
 READY FOR FIGHT
Ballyhool Against Argentine Has Created Big
 Ticket Demand
Joe Jeanette's gymnasium in Hoboken Thursday afternoon.

Joe Jeanette's gymnasium in Hoboken Thursday afternoon.
 At 9 o'clock in the morning 16 circus ticket wagons will park along the curbs in Jersey City and begin to sell 10000 tickets at g and $3 each. At 4 in the afternoon the gates of Boyle's Thirty Acres will swing open. Rickard ex- poets to sell out most of the tickets and if he gets a capacity crowd of S5,- 900 or so, the gross receipts will run to $700,000, of which Firpo should re- ceive at least $250,000.
 The weather has been bleak, cold and gray and the ticket sale probably would have been very poor but for the interest created by the opposition of Canon Chase and others.
 The Canon combined forces with the other reform agencies Wednesday and tried to get an injunction on the ground that Firpo and Wills seriously contem- plated a violation of the law but Jus tice Minturn of Hoboken was not ac- cessible and this move failed. Later on, Herbert Clark Gilson, lawyer for the five groups of Jersey clergymen, ap- piled to United States Judge Runyon of Newark for warrant charging Firpo with violation of the Mann act, better known as the white slave law. Judge Runyon will give his answer Thursday, but even if Firpo should be arrested, Rickard and his packers will be willing to put up as much at $1 100000 bail, and will have lawyers in the nearby off ing to demand his release on bail or writ of habeas corpus.

FARMERS DESERVE LIFT

When the Department of Agricul.
ture continues to insist that Ger.
tain classes of farmers are i'll straits
and need assistance, when the De-
partment points out that farms
are being abandoned and farmers
are going into the cities at such a
rate that byand-by there won't be
enough experienced man power
left to operate the country farms
ut the present rate. 1t Is not talk
ing through Its hat or indulging
in alarmist guess work. IL knows.
Tho Department constantly hears
from the farms through thousands
of resident reporters scattered
through every county in every
state Here is what some OF these
reporters had to say concerning
the condition of the cattlemen In
certain Western range state early
in February:
The financial situation is poor
As n result we are going to have
many less farmers and stock men
very soon
"Cattlcmen are especially in very
bad shape. IT they are crowded or
siderable number are liable to go
broke this year
"rhe financial situation is not
very satisfactory. We should have
double what we are getting. as
COW dollar is worth only fifty cents
of most everything we have to
buy"
'If there Is anything you can do
for the cattleman In the way OF
longtime loans ut n low rate OF III
terest, for Gods sake do 1t atOnce.'
These are sincere expressions baS-
ed on personal knowledge and they
could be multiplied indefinitely.
Let 'em quit until the supply goes
below demand and prices rise" you
say. That's what happens in other
lines" Righto, but-the backbone
of this Nation and the carrier OF
its traditions is pre-eminently the
farmer This country needs strong
sound, Independent foundation OF
cOntentcd farm owners. Under pre-
sent conditions that foundation Is
cracking and crumbling Isn't it
worth while to invest even bill
lion or, two In order to preserve
this foundation intact until condi.
tions change? And change they will
If not through the rapid increase
of city population with its ever
growing demands for the products
of the farmer. For our own sake,
let's gIvc the farmer Il lift over the
rough spots. April Sunset.
