FARM LEADERS ACTIVE

Leaders among the farmers
are still agitated by the plight
Of the tillers Of the soil. And
they seem determined that
their interests shall be looked
after if possible.
So a new farm bloc has
been organized, and it is said
that the group has $50 mem
bers. If that be true and
they act unitedly they should
make an impression. But
whether they do so remains to
be seen. Some say that farm
leaders have been out-smarted
in Congress, but that is doubt
full.
An effort will be made to
put through the four-point
program, and it will soon be
taken up.
All of which recalls the sue
cess of the farm bloc in 1921.
This original combine through
push and persistence obtained
the enactment of more ag1i-
cultural legislation than in all
the sixty-six preceding ses-
sions. Sixty bills that the
bloc desired became laws.
If the farmers acted cooper
atlvely at more frequent per-
iods they would get more.
And there seems to be no
valid reason why they should
not do so.when the number of
and farm bureaus
and cooperative organizations
Of farmers are considered.
Surely there is plenty of
room for improvement, and
Congress might render valu-
able aid to the farmers in
their time Of trouble.

bar itself. Yet such is the
opinion held by Dean Charles
E. Clark, of the Yale Law
School, expressed in his an
nual report to President An
gell, of the university.
While formerly the richest
professional positions were
found in the large cities, he
says,fi the glamor which sur
rounded that type of practice
has lessened since the depres-
sion began and, at present,
law school graduates are scat
tering through the country,
assuming positions of leader
ship in cities which are not
great centers of population.
Coming from such an au-
thority Dean Clark's line of
reasoning is entitled to con
sideration. Whereas co1por-
ate promoting held the center
of interest a few years ago."
he holds, "now even the finan-
cial firms are seeking law
graduates who may become
trial lawyers.
But this is not all, for Dean
Clark further argues:
another developm d e Il t
which has come most sudden
" and is Of extraordinary sig
to the lawyers is the
assumption by the govern
nent of a commanding posi-
ion in modern business. Only
! short time ago the cry, in
which lawyers Joined, was
hat the government should

ure Of events has caused a ,
omplete reversal Of this point
i view, and business in dire

THE NEW YEAR HOPE

The NEW YEAR HOPE
There is something abour
the beginning of new yeal
which tends to revive waning
hopes. Both literally and fig.
uratively we close our books
on the last day of the old year.
take account Of stock and
make our plans for the com
ing twelve-months. There
was more reason for hailing
the new year in the old days
when the calendar began with
the velnal equinox, in late
March, and the festival Of the
years end was certain to be
followed speedily BY the reviv-
al Of vegetation and the be-
ginning afresh Of the annual
agricultural cycle. "A great
deal Of the sentimental i'm
portance which we attach to
New Years Day is a survival
from the pastoral civilizations
Of the past.
We are no better able than
anyone else to predict what
will hapepn in 1888. "Who
knoweth what a day may
bring forth ?" We are certain
only Of one thing: that is that
the New Year vii be different
from the old one. And We
hope it will be a better year.
We have, at least, put Be-
hind Us some Of the things
which made 1882 the hardest
year in recent American his
tory, for most folks, and We
are closer to some of the
things which promise better
for the future. The election
is over, for one thing; the
European debt situation is at
least beginning to be clarified.
We seem to have about reach
ed the end Of the procession
of bank failures. Farm prod
ucts touched new all-time low
prices in 1882 and we cannot
imagine that they will not av-
erage higher in 1888.
1t seems to us that the com
ing year will necessarily be
one of thorough readjustment
not alone in matters of money
and trade, but in peoples
mental outlook. 1t may have
been necessary for us to go
through three terrible years
of depression to purge our
minds of the fallacious notion
that the road to universal
prosperity and individual
wealth is an easy one. If it
turns out by the end of 1888
that everybody has learned
that he is entitled only to
what he can get by working
for it, and to be content with
that, the New Year just be
ginning will be the greatest
success ever recorded on the
calendar.-Newark Ledger.

NEWSPAPERS MERGE

these two well known vii

has come to our exchange
table a well-edited, interesting
newspaper which is most vel.
come. In a large degree the
style of the old Evening
Journal dominates the new
the Every Evening style, ia
miliar to so many thousands,
being most faded out. We
shall miss the old Journal and
we shall miss the Every Even
ing, but out of them both
merges a paper that is des-
tined to serve Wilmington and
the State with the daily news
that will lose nothing in its
desire to serve its readers.
We congratulate the consoli-
dated paper and wish It
abundant success. As the
Delmarva Star of Wilmington
says: Perhaps there is no
city where the newspaper field
is 50 circumscribed by geo
graphical limitations and
small population as it is in
Wilmington. The fact. then,
that newspapers so complete
and so trustworthy as the
Journal and Every Evening
had been built up in Whining
ton, and were able to maintain
consistently such a high
standard of excellence, speaks
well for the skill and perse-
verance of their news, editor
ial and business staffs.
Developments Of recent
years have made the publica-
ton Of a modern newspaper a
costly business, and the re-
lentless competition necessary
to keep up two high-grade
newspapers in a city no larger
than Wilmington, imposes a
drain on capital and a CORES
ponding burden on the adver-
tisers of a community, whose
support is absolutely essential
to the conduct of a daily news
paper that seeks to cover its
field to the satisfaction of its
readers. Besides this the bus
mess conditions for the past
three years have made more
acute the problems that news
paper publishers have to face.
So it is no surprise to The
Star, nor to those who have
observed the trend in other
cities, that the Journal and
Every Evening have seen the
wisdom of consolidating.
