CHLiPEO L1I11GER Illinois Standpatter, Opposed Taft Four Years Ago, Now for Him.

MOVEMENT TO QUITE THE FARMERS

(Palladium 8peclal.) WA8HINQTON, D. C, Feb. 9 President Taft baa given another evidence of bfa utter want of sympathy

with the Progressive movement by naming Representative William Mo Klaley. ot Illinois, aa hla campaign manager. The Illinois congressman la one of the moat popular men In hla Intercourse with his fellows that can be found In either house or congress. This means that he Is a princely entertainer. He has a charming personality. But as an entertainer Joe Sibley, of Pennsylvania, was probably aa much oi a success. Mr. McKlnley Is not a public speaker nor Is bis name identified with great public policies. He will be longest remembered in Washington for the dinners be gave and the friendships he made. He la a banker and n interurban promoter. He IS at the head of the Interurban system of central Illinois. He Is a stand-patter. He boasts of it Four years ago he opposed Mr. Taft's nomination because Mr. Taft was then supposed to stand for the Progressive policies of the KeeaeveH administration. Evidently Mr. McKlnley has been reassured on this point He was a friend of Mr. Taft at that time. He had been one of the Taft party to the Philippines. But he made It clear that he could not taad for Mr. Taft then because the president had espoused the Roosevelt poMclea. So Mr. McKlnley became sannagor of Speaker Cannon'a boom. Later, ho operated with Senator Crane, and Senator Hemenway and "Joe" Keating of Indiana In what came to be .known as the "Allies" movement a eosnbtnatlon of the opponents of Taft

tar the Republican nomination that year. They fought Taft up to the Chicago convention and were prepared to aooept Knox, Hughes, Fairbanks or iCaJoMMi rather than Taft The attacks

mt the "Allies" aad the methods they

employed to defeat were complained f aad even denounced by Mr. Taft then secretary of war. In public interviews. But things have changed since then. Th "Aloes," another name for "Reactionaries" are still fighting Roosevelt aad his policies but they now find Taft entirely acceptable.

BARKER MORSE TO TAKE VEI1GEAIICE . flans to Crush fAtn Wno Took Advantage of Him

it

in His Trouble.

BY ISAAC I TOTTEN. The ball baa started to roll the one Important move toward getting the farmers of this locality together has been made. Getting started at anything is half tbe battle; in fact, more than half; bemuse, If the start is never made, nothing can ever be accomplished. (That kind of logic isn't difficult to get past. Is ItT) Last Saturday afternoon several far

mers from near Richmond met In the Second National Bank building to discuss tbe subject of holding a grain exhibit In connection with tbe poultry shows of this city 4n the future.

If the enthusiasm manifested at that

meeting last Saturday can be taken as

a criterion of what will be accomplish

ed here by tbe farmers in the future, there is going to be as much interest taken, in tbe production of good grain as there now Is In tbe production of good poultry.

If you were there, you know how much good you received from this meeting, and if you were not there, you missed a great deal.

But that is not the last opportunity

you will have of finding out how much you missed by not attending last Saturday; because, the boys that were there felt so good over what they accomplished, that they are going to hold another meeting at the same place next Saturday afternoon, and they want you to come and take an active part. Why, some of those present at the meeting last Saturday became acquainted with neighbors for tbe first time, and many of them have been living within' almost a stone's throw of each other for two or three years. The main object of that meeting, as

stated In the papers, was for the purpose of holding the grain exhibit, but they Intend to go farther than that; they want to get all tbe farmers around here in closer touch with each other so that all can work together on a more scientific and business like basis. Is not that a move In the right direction? You know it is, don't you? Then don't be one of those in-growing, selfish kind that are all wrapped?

up in themselves.

Come In next Saturday, Feb. 10th. and show that you are Just as wide awake as your neighbor who is willing to come and do his part. We all know that last Saturday was

a very oaa aay, out many came any

way. Some one aaid to one of the boys: "How did you get in Jim?" and the reply was: "Oh. I just slipped in." So If It is still Icy next Saturday let us hope that it will not be why, do as

Jim did. Just slip In.

This Is the age which Is notable for the development of the principals of co-operation; for the elimination of waste and for the scientific managing and conducting of business. To secure the greatest economy In the production of farm products it is necessary to know of the best methods

(National News Association)

, NEW YORK, Feb.. 9. While gatherlog strength Tor bis proposed healthsveklng trip abroad, Chas.vW. Morse, tbe former loa king; recently released from the federal prison la Atlanta, Oa., ts today reported to be planning a campaign ot vengeance against men

to trusted and who, he declares, turned against him la bis hour of trouble and by legal process took from him securities to which to claims he Is justly entitled.' y He Is stated to have expressed his destroTor Tengeaaoe to a close friend. 6a did not name the men to whom be referred but left no doubt In tbe mind Of the man to whom he uttered the threat that to meant It to be taken with the utmost seriousness.

of tilling, of seed selecting, of sowing, of cultivating, of harvesting and of

marketing. It Is also necessary to

know how to breed, to feed and to mar

ket the farm animals. We can read to learn, we can experiment, and we can if we will get together and profit by each otner's experiences. Why, last Saturday the farmers who

were at the meeting could hardly get down to the purpose of the meeting because they were so much interested in discussing matters pertaining to tbe farm work. Farmers like to get together the same as men in other business lines like to get together, and when they rub up against each other, they are always benefited. There is nothing more broadening than to get out and meet other men who are deeply interested in tbe farm work and the farm life. It is safe to say that you don't know a bit more about farming . than some oi tbe others that are going to take part In tbe grain exhibit, and you probably don't know a bit less, so come on in and let's all get together and make

a success of this project. Your experience along agricultural lines will mean just as much toward the success of the organisation as your neighbors. Its a fact, of course, that we must all runour own farms, and that tbe compensation is in proportion to the efforts we put forth; yet there are other things that cannot be carried out successfully single handed. Organised effort is the kind that generally gets in the solar plexus blow.

The boys at tbe bead of tbe poultry organization have, by means of exhibits here at Richmond, aroused considerable interest in poultry. Each succeeding exhibit finds more local poultry raisers winning the prizes, and more local poultry raisers taking a greater interest in producing high

class poultry. What the boys at the head of the poultry organization have done toward encouraging the breeding and raising of better poultry, the farmers organization can do toward encouraging the breeding and raising of better grain. It is not the purpose of this farmer's organisation to become a part of tbe poultry association; only to work in conjunction with It in holding exhibits. The, farmer's organisation Is to be made up solely of farmers you, your neighbors and the other farmers. Can you think of any good reason why you shouldn't take an Interest in anything that makes for the betterment of farm conditions? Of course you can't. Then decide to put your shoulder to the wheel along with the other farmers of this community and push like sixty. Be sure to come to tbe next meeting. The time: one o'clock. Tbe place: Second National Bank Building. The Purpose: To get together. Come!
