Garber Addresses Farmers
A regular meeting of tho Red Cloud
local of the Farmers t'nion was held
at the I. O O. F hall Tuesday even-
ing, which was well attended. Tho
big feature of the evening was a "plain
talk" by Diinlel Gather, on the Non
partisan League. II Is words of wisdom
set the audience to thinking. He point,
od out to them wheie the farmers of
NebiMSka were misled by the doctrine
of the League, concerning their so.call.
ed atUliatiou with tho Furmers Union as
had been the farmers of North Dakota,
warned them against lotting the Long.
ue getting controll of this atate. Mr.
Qarbet's idea of free speech was that
every citizen of the notion was entitled
to free speech, except when ho proved
to be a traitor,. If the average citizen
would mix as much common sense with
their thoughts as does Mr. Garber it is
a foregone conclusion that the farmers
of this state will not accept anj false

completed Mr. Edison submitted it to hid famous
tone-test, ofllicially to prove that the RE-CREATED
voice had every quality of Miss Lucey's liv
