    HUGHES SAYS DBMS -.
IGNOREFARMERS
Declares In Hastings Speech
that Agricultural Interests
Not Consulted. ' . ,
DENIES INVISD3LE POWER
Hastings, Neb, Oct 16. Charles
E.' Hushes today 'told crowd of
farmers here that the democratic ad
ministration had ignored the agricul
tural interests of the country in urg
ing the enactment of the Adamson
law. The nominee in support of his
contention cited a telegram- irpm
Treiident Pope of the Texas Farm:
ers' union to President Wilson re
questing that-the farmer be permit
ted to submit-data in arbitration pro
ceedings between the railroads and
the brotherhoods.
Mr. Hughes also ( referred- to in
visible government." ' ''
"Le me say this," the nominee de
clared, "those who are declaiming to
the American public Invisible govern
ment had better remember that when
1 was in executive responsibility in
the state of New fork there was no
'invisible government in that state.
i N Farmer Ha to Pay. '
"I want to say in reference to rates
v that it seems to me that the farmers
of the country were very little con
sidered the other day when on the
demand of the administration the
wares of a erouo of railroad work
ers were increased by law in response
to the force. Somebody has got to
pay the increased bills and the farm
i ers will know very quickly who has
' to pay them. ' .-. , ...
'"The farmer were not represented
in this discussion, if you may call it
that, in this surrender. I have here
a copy of a telegram that was sent
to the president by H. N, Pope,' the
president of the State Farmers1 Union
. of Texas, which I shall read to you."
The nominee read the' telegram
from Mr, Pope fqllows : We ask. that
you make no concessions or commit
ments that will in any manner cause
an increase in irciaiu rates gn uruu-y
acts proaucea or consnmea on me
farm. The men who pay the freight
' have an equity in this dispute which
neither the railroad trainmen nor the
railroad msnancrs have- authority to
represent. If it is your, intention to
- personally dispose of the matter, we
ask that you postpone further consid
eration until a committee of farmers
tan prepare Information and data to
. present their side of the case. ' If you
conclude to settl? by arbitration then
the organized farmer should have
representation" on " any arbitration
committee thai mav be formed to dis
pose of this question, for the men who
pay should nave representation as
well as the men who, receive it We
again urge that all questions Involved
be settled by arbitration where all
parties an.d'all interest can be heard
and the subject dealt with free from
baste or intimidation, (Applause.)

leader in congress for an immediate

fustice of this matter miitht be known.
The farmers were not there,' except
through the presence of the repre
sentatives of the people in congress,
and those representatives were asked
to abdicate their authority, 'and the

I don't believe there is any decadence
in the apirit of America. Bui I stand
here as a man of peace, and I say it
is an atrocious misrepresentation for
anybody to go through the land pro
claiming to the American people that
a vote for me is a. vote for war. What
a preposterous statement for the in
terests of peace. We desire to pursue
the ideals of peace. We have always
stood up for the national dignity of
the American citizenship. Are those
things incompatible? Well, when it
is found that they are incompatible,
the American nation will go straight
down to disaster. There is no such
thing as a lasting peace at the price
of your self-respect of you self-esteem
and the confidence of other na
tions. We desire the friendship of
all. We have no aggressive policies.
We do not seek to exploit anybody.
We do not invite any country to go
to war. We ask nothing but our
known rights. - ;' ,
MINORITY REPORT

Epiphany was contained in the report
The present version follow: "Who
soever therefor resisteth the or
dinance of God, and they that resist
shall receive to themselves damna
tion." J ..
It wai argued that the word Is
offensive to- some communcant of
the church.' -" '
Another proposal would adopt the
expression "The- divine liturgy," in
stead of the present, "the order of
the Holy Communion."
The elimination of ever possible
alternative in the .prayer book was
urged by the Rev, Irving P. Johnson
of Faribault, Minn., bishop-elect of
Colorado. He said that- this is neces
sary "for those ignorant of our
service." .
For Pension. System.
Establishment of a pension system
for Protestant Episcopal clergymen
seems assured. Right Rev. William
Lawrence, bishop' of 'Massachusetts,
announced at a joint session of the
two houses of the session.
Bithon Lawrence, who is leading
a church campaign to raise $5,000,000
as a reserve for a pension system for
the clergy, presented the report to
the trustee of the fund, He said two
thirds of this amount had been given
in cash or in pledges of unquestioned
validity. '
, The bishop added he believed that
every clergyman retiring after March
1, 1917, would be assured o( a pen
sion and that the widows and orphans
of the clergy .would benefit from the
fund, The proposed pension is $600
a year for each clergyman, the pres
ent average salary of thetninister be
ing estimated at ? WW. ,

CO-OPERATION
It la the co-oueration of many ner-
sons which make for success in busi
ness enterprise. - This is especially
true in life insurance. One person.
cannot make company. It requires
the co-operat.on of many. Western
people can co-operate with the rest,
dents of New York, New Jersey, Mas
sachusetts and -other eastern states
and develop the companies of these
states, as they can co-operate- with
and develop western companies., -:
Turn the above thought ever in
your mind and set down the advan
tages In building up a western com
pany. Then try to think of one good
substantial reason for patronising an
eastern company whose assets are al
ready so large as to be a financial
menace to the people of the ,we-t, if
not to 'the whole country When
