article he wrote on Thursday
before the Sunday on which he
died. And this is the idea: "In
growing crops is it much better
for the crops an the land to have
the roots occupying different
zones in the soil-if we grow all
four of these legumes we are
improving more zones of the
soil than if e grow only one or

the papers, from the letters he
wrote, in personal conferences,
the forums he conducted, from
the book, "The Story of Wood

messages he presented from the

T he congressional compaign
this year will be the Verdun of
democracy. Upon it's result will
depend whether the nation shall
continue recklessly upon the road
to ruthless dictatorship with the
inevitable financial chaos and
moral bankruptcy ahead or
whether it will turn toward con-
stitutional government and the
sound principles under which it
became the mghtiest and the
wealthiest power in the world.
In such a crisis the Republican
party PAGES patriotism above
partisanship and principle above
oxpediency. 1t will not combine
with those forces of destruction
which have strangled enter
prise, destroyed initiative, piled
up the most staggering debt in
history, and brazenly sought to
c~-crol the courts and all other
indeendent agecies Of the govern
met. In this contest it invites
the cooperation and support Of
all patriotic citizens regardless
of political utilization.

/ have before me a picture of
w. D. linn. All of you no doubt
know of his death, and the main
facts Of his life are so we'll
kown that there is no need to
restate them.
My acquaintance with Mr..
linn began in Havsrhill, Ohio,
during the winter of 1918
while assisting with a Farmers
institute held in the church of
which was pastor. 1t was at
that time that he made a last
ing impression on me. l liked the
way he presented his message
He came to grips with reality.
Soon after coming to West Va,
in 1919 we renewed our friend
ship.
1t was my good fortune to
have him as an associate in the
holding of m any country life
coferences.O One could always de-
ped on Mr.. linn making cor .
tributation to any meeting at
which his name appeared on the
program.
One time / asked him to take
the place of a minister on the
program. He hesitated bit, but
then, as through the years when
asked to render a service, he ac-
cepted, and took as his text,
"And thou shalt make unto thy
self name" / do not remember
the details of the message, but
1t ran something like this: We
can and should make name for
ourselves as parents and farmers
and home makers; and as good
citizens. We have mission to
fulfil in this world and that is to
help make the world better
place in which to live. And ther
he went on to interpret this out
line. To Mr.. linn fulfilling our
mission meant-be a good farmer
by conserving and improving the
soil, and he was a great pioeel

honest, courageous and practical
men. They believe that pay rolls
should be substituted for relief
rolls; that he government
should be put upon a business
and not political basis; that
honest enterprise should be en-
couraged and rewardc; and that
every American citizen should
be provided with a real job at
real wages. These men will not
waver in their devotation to
American principles. They will
not resort to demoguery. They
will gght hard and clearly for
what tn eY believe to the the
right.
Municipal and special cleo
tions he'd in West Virginia and
other states in recent months
mOnstrate that the New Deal
is on the way out. America has
begun to think and to act. With
the aid Of militant and patriotic
Democrats the Republican party
will show substantial gains in
both houses of congress this
fall and ] feel confident that
West Virginia will contribute
it's share towards this rising
tide Of protest against the most
braZen political dictatorship in
American history.
