The Proposed Farm Strike

In oi opinion whoever was responsible for call
Ms 4 NAT II the proposed general farm strike of the
Farm Holiday Association which was to have become
effective last Monday, acted most wisely.
&c always seemed to us that any kind Of a strike
~ farmers at this time, when it was so evident that
everything possible was being done by the national
administration to relieve the agricultural situation
was hl-adYlsed. Such a proposal not only carried
with It q lack Of gratitude for efforts Of the presi-
dent and Congress. but a direct thrust at tha man
VINO Is bending every effort to lead our country out
Of one Of the worst periods Of depression it has ever
known.
It is the farmers right to strike If he wants to.
Ills leaders are connscling that strikes cannot he
conducted without violence. That is eyer the aren.
ment Of direct action. Yet the record is that those
seeking violence usually find it, since violence be
gets violence.
There was talk Of starving the cities into sub
mission. II, too, is i'll advised. If actually achieved
which would be doubtful, a lot OF good friends Of the
FARMER would starye. And anyhow current reports
snow that there is more starvation in the average
city today than there is on the farm.
What the country is actually seeing is q bid In
all too many cases to wrest the control of the farm
ers efieciye organizations from them. What it Ia
actually hearing on the whole subject ia more
yaporing by Communistic leaders and their forces
VINO want revolution and chaos. than intelligent dis
cussion Of the facts honestly devoted to the worthy
undertaking Of getting understanding.
Quite probably no one wants to see anyone
starVe. Meantime with a well defined program I'M
ger way by the national government to better farm
conditions there is a question as to what good end
would be served by any such violent methods as
some OF the self-constituted advisers Of farm croups
are counseling.
Ii ever there was a time when all the eountrva
interests should be working together it is now. II
ever there was q time to hold such gestures as these
IN allegiance 1t is now. 1T is still within the nrovinco
OF the Individual to withhold from the market any,
thing he may choose. He does not need To o ar
organization fee to do IT. His individual cfrcnm.
stances should dictate his course.
And before there is any violent pesturInr II
Should be remembered that never In the history ~
the worli have honest individuals or honest prouns
divided in opinion upon any matter tried honestly Il
get together for their mutual benefit that thav ad
not achieve.

getting out Of the country. Every

stIIl considers himself competent to

Ryan then deliberately passed
Slyter, Thune flew out to right field,
Hoffman struck out and Stutsrud
went out on a ground ball to third
base, and the ball game was over.
The pitching of Ryan and Hoff-
man featured the game. Ryan was
in the pink of condition and pitched
his usual smart and heady game.
Hoffman went in in the fourth in
ming after Marty Cartwright was
touched for four hits, one a home
run by Schrupp, which netted the
visitors all their runs.
Cartwright opened UP with his
usual steady game, but seemed to
have less on the ball than usual.
The visitors found his offerings
good, punched their hits in the
fourth and Strengthened them out
for runs.
Hoffman thereafter kept the visi-
tors puzzled and allowed them only
n hit for the rest of the session.
The performance Of the Williston
youngsters left nothing to be desired.
Goar put life in the team at first
base and played the position with
confidence, while hitting the ball
consistently. Freddy Foss turned in
a three-bagger in the ninth. Le-
Dosquet took Ryan for two hits and
a sacrifice. The game was well
played throughout by both clubs.
Ryan exhibited his usual Snowman
ship, but the fans gave him an easy
evening. The big shot Of the Plen-
tywood club, who is as clever a
pitcher as appears here, seems to be
linked in games with Williston by
ninth inning rallies. In his last
three starts against Williston he has
lost two and tied one in the ninth.
The visitors looked like a smart
club and one that will hit consis-
tently with a few more games un-
der its belt. Schrupp, for Plenty
wood, is a nice catcher. The team
showed speed on the bases and a lot
Of confidence in the old master who
heads it.
Williston took its first run in the
first. After Thune grounded out,
Ryan walked Hoffman Stutsrud
flew out to left field and LeDosuuet
hit for three bases, scoring Hoffman.
Head struck out. In the seventh,
after Foss went out to Ryan, Volk
hit for two bases. He scored after
Slyter had grounded out on a two
Dagger by Thune.

Thursday game at Wililst0n is tax
en- from the Williston Herald:
Williston came from behind in the
ninth inning of the opening game of
the season in the Upper Missouri
League last night at Harmon Field
to tie the score with the Plentywood
club at 4 all. Darkness prevented
the playing of extra innings and the
seasons opener went on the records
as a tie contest to be decided by an
extra game.
Plentywood brought a good ball
club to town. Lefty Ryan gave it
the usual smart pitching and the
visitors looked good to win until the
hnal inning when a two-bagger by
Goar, a three-base hit by Freddie
Foss and Johnny Volk's two-bagger
combined to produce the runs that
knotted the score.
