Passing Of the Heyday.

Passing Of the Heyday.
Stuffed shirts have their value in making
q show
Inspiring respect, as the people well
know.
We may miss the great charm Of a
passing parade
Which reveals that stuffed shirts have
been somehow mislaid.
But the farmer must toll for the things
we require
Where banquets get busy for all to
admire.
Stuffed shirts may be scarcer In public
display
Because A. A. A. notes shortage Of hay.

"Yes," replied Senator Sorghum, 'but

Golden Illusion.
The goldenrod again is here
With an appealing yellow:
Autumn again will soon appear
With moments mild and mellow.
But gold like this which grows so rank
Proves but feeble racket.
You cannot put it In bank

Senator Is an OLD hand at the pO1tlcal
game, however, and resourceful. He was
q leader in the pre-convention campaign
for the nomination of Col. Frank Knox
for the G. o. P. presidential nomination.
For years he has been close friend Of
Col Knox. What effect, If any, that
relationship with the Republican nom

The other senatorial primary fight
which Is holding particular interest Just
now is that Of Senator Pat Harrison of
Mississippi against former Gov. Conner.
Within a short time it will be settled.
The fur is flying in Mississippi. Sen
ator Bilbo Is campaigning against his
colleague, Senator Harrison, and for
Conner. Bilbo is a hard fighter and a
hard hitter. During recent address
the Senator so incensed Harrison sup
porter that the Harrison man climbed
on the speakers platform and took
swing at Bilbo. No damage, it is re-

benefits. Despite this. the reaction
aries in the Legislature rejected Gov
ernor Olson's pleas; unemployment in
surance was an altogether too liberal
idea for their digestion.
The need for a state unemployment
insurance act to enable the workers Of
Minnesota to benefit from the federal
act was as great then as it is today.
But reactionaries can no longer reject
the principle of social lily. Have
they changed their minds? No. The
people spoke out vigorously on No

for the reactionaries to do but sur
render to the demands of the people.
A national organization of liberals
lawyers under the name of the Ma
tional Lawyers Guild is calling con-
vention in Washington for February
20, 81, and %. 1t is headed by Frank

allied themselves with the new or
ganization are Federal Judge William
M. Holly of Chicago; Charlton Ogburn,
counsel for the American Federation
of Labor; Jerome M. Frank, attorney
for the Reconstruction Finance Corp;
Henry T. Hunt, former mayor of Gin
cinnati; Norris L. Ernst of New York
About $500 lawyers have already
signified approval of the National
Lawyers Guild.
Minneapolis and st. Paul lawyers
are about to take steps to organize
these two cities. The organization
of this Guild was prompted by the at
titude exhibited by certain groups in
the American Bar Association against
the best interests of the public, which
is bringing the profession into dis
repute.
England and France propose pie
bescite in Spain as condition to end
the Civil war. This the leaders OF
the legal Spanish government have
rejected.
Why a plebescite? The present gov
eminent of Spain was placed in office
by popular vote. Its program was
approved by the people and this gov
eminent has right to attempt to
carry this program out. When it fails
in this, the people of Spain, as the
people in any true democracy, have
a right to change it.

WELCOME TO THE FARM
BUREAU ASSEMBLY


There is no more important eueRf
than The meeting of farm bureau
members. The betterment of aqr.icuI-
tfTe, determines the betfernleRt of Inn
loeTiGi Valley. We UeIcome III uisitors
and commend the local organization
There is no more important event in
the annual list of meetings than the as
sembly Saturday of farm bureau men,
bers from the five southern counties.
Imperial Valley is founded entirely
upon agriculture. The problems of the
farmer and dairyman are the problems
of the entire community. Everyone is
confident that its agricultural import
ance in the past is minor in comparison
to what the prosperity and production
will be in the future.
Too numerous to mention are the
important subjects brought up for dis
cussion, explanation and recommends
ton at such assemblies. Each, however,
has a distinct import in its effect upon
the agricultural output of local lands,
and from each may grow an additional
source of improvement in the welfare of
farmers and contingent industries here.
Imperial Valley has a right to be
proud of her host organization as we'll
as the quality of local leadership. To
name the outstanding individuals would
be to make a lengthy list which always
is accompanied by the danger of over
looking for the moment some extremely
worthy individual.
Such meetings have value in excess
Of mere discussion of problems. Separ-
ated groups are merged into a unified
body, farm sections become better ac-
quainted with other sections, county
lines are obliterated and the result is
that farmers come to realize that they
do not play a lone hand.
We welcome and congratulate the
assemblage.

During the past several decades the

journalism has turned away from cut
