FARMERS PROTEST
FIXING OF PRICES
s
J. W. Shorthill of Lincoln Goes
to Washington to Present
Views of Co-Operative
Associations.
Lincoln, May 30. J! W. Shorthill,
secretary of the Nebraska Co-opera
tive Grain and Live Stock association,
will go to Washington Friday as a
representative of co-operative grain
and live stock associations in eleven
middle-western states to protest to
congressional committees considering
food legislation against fixing maxi
mum prices for farm products.
Represents Eleven States.
Farmers and grain dealers are op
posed to price-fixing, Mr. Shorthill
said, except as a last resort, and un
less it is evident the commodity is in
control of a monopoly."
Mr. .Shorthill said he would appear
"especially for the grain producers of
the middle-west. He said he would
represent associations in the follow
ing states: Indiana, Illinois, Ohio,
Nebraska, Kansas, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, Ok
lahoma and Colorado.
No Objection to Minimum.
"We are opposed to government
legislation filing maximum prices for
any commodity unless it is known to
be. tinder monopolistic control or un
less it is to break a speculative cor
ner,"said Mr. Shorthill. "The agri
cultural interests of the west are unal
terably opposed to government inter
ference with the prices of farm
products in any degree."
The agricultural interests, however,
would not oppose fixing a minimum
price for farm products, Mr. Shorthill
said, but neither would they advocate
legislation to that end.

not retreat. It was not my judgment.
But it is now my law and the law

PEOPLE MEET
TO MOURN THE
DEAD OF WAR
(Continued From I'a.e On..)
young man viewed the struggle from
man retreated down the lane of time
the eminence of the present, the old
and lived over the stirring scene.
"So from the eminence of the pre.
ent the story of the war must be
told by the young men of today but
these soldiers are hearing the bugle
calls of the civil war.
"Memory' storehouse is opened
and illustrious spirits rise before us.
There is Washington, 'first in war,
first in peaH, first in the hearts of
his countrymen.' There is Lincoln,
giant among his fellow-men. With
great heart, great intellect, great will
and great faith in the everlasting.
"There is Grant, intrepid as a gen
eral, generous as a victor, confiding
as a friend, patient in suffering, brave
in death, silent in speech but un
speakably eloquent in action. You
were with him at Donelson, Vicks
burg, Shiloh, Corinth, Appomattox.
Some of you saw Logan when his
hair was like raven's wing and his
eye was full of fire. And he made
you think it wy glorious to fight as
you followed the gallant ' Black
Eagle' on to victory. Vou saw the
brave-souled Thomas when as the
'Rock of Chickamauga' he checked the
rebel tide as Gibraltar checks and
dashes back the rage of the stormy
sea.
March to the Sea.
"Some of you went with Sherman
'from Atlanta to the sea,' in the exe
cution of one of the greatest military
movements in the history of warfare.
You were with him and when you
marched with Sherman to the sea you
inarched to glory. Every man who
fought in the ranks with these great
leaders helped to bring them to fame
and arc sharers of their renown.
"I like to think of the virtue of
the rank and file. Today I rejoice in
looking back over the dusty ranks in
which many a brave boy trudged
whose only fame was the short line
jn the newspaper announcing to the
Viel-bowed friends the cheerful lay
ing down of his life for his country.
They were boys, for it was tlif flower
of youth that was plucked from the
mother's breast and the sweetheart's
arms. Out of 5,216.384 men engaged in
the struggle 4,534,276 were under 22
years of age. Only 682,108 were over
21. Were the boys older then that
now? Are we softening as a nation
with the luxuries of prosperity? The
world has never produced better sol
diers than the "American soldier boy.
It is the best fighting blood of his
tory. They can handle any machine
that genius can invent. 1 he torpedo,
the aeroplane, the submarine are
American inventions and the Ameri
can genius can invent something to
take the sting out of their destruc
tiveness. Looking Forward Now.
"This Memorial day is of peculiar
significance to us. Today we are not
only looking backward, but we are
looking forward to the great world
war, in which we are engaged. All
discordant voices must be taught to
join in one harmonious chorus in
singing the 'Star-Spangled Banner."
Every citizen of this republic, whether
Saxon, Slav, Jew, Teuton, Latin or
Celt must salute the Star and Stripes,
and if he does not salute the Stars
and Stripes he must be striped until
he sees the stars.
"There is need for reconsecration to
the flag. Each one must ask the ques
tion, of himself, 'What can I do for
my country in this hour of emer
gency?' The heaviest burdens of war
are always borne by the mothera and
so the mothers with heads up and
shoulders back can follow the ex
ample of the mothers of the civil war
and give their sons to the nation.
All Should be Considerate.
"Employers should be reasonable
and considerate of their employes
and share with them the profits of
their business. The laboring' man
should be considerate and reasonable
in his dealings with his employers
and. endeavor to see both sides of
the labor question. There must be
no strikes and no estrangements in
this hour of peril.
"While the mead of highest praise
must be accorded to the men enlisted
in the Tanks, we will give apprecia
tive credit to the artisans, nurses,
physicians, farmers and all honest
toilers and producers who offer will
ingly 'the fruit of their labor directed
for the succor of the nation, in this
critical hour. The Red Cross move
ment must be supported. The Liber
ty bonds tnust be purchased and each
and every one must cheerfully meet
the demands made upon his patrio
tism. "The Nebraska National Guard is
just as good as any organization in
this country, and its officers are many
ot tnem tne same men wno made the
"Fighting First" in the Philippine
islands a regiment that brought
glory to the state. They should be
recruited to full war strength."
Quartet Pleasea Crowd.
"The Vacant Chair" was sung by
quartet made up of 'Nat Hubbard,
C. E. Boeke, Mrs. F, D. Cooper and
Miss Anna Hein, after which, as a
closing number, the audience, stand
ing, joined in singing "America."
One of the pleasing features of the
exercises of the afternoon was the
work of Martina Stites and Virginia
Light, two girls 8 years of age. Sup
plied with numerous large bouquets,
they presented them to all persons
who took part in the program. How
ever, those who were on the program
were not the only ones to receive
flowers. The members of the Wo
men's Relief Corp provided them
selves with 700 carnations and to the
coat lapel of each Grand Army man
and veteran of subsequent wars,
pinned one of the flowers. "
