This oountry Is aaAertag awra from tainted politica than trom any other malady at the present time. There is scarcely a campaisn speech made, a platform demand written or a mea¬ sure enacted into law that doea not carry the uint of personal gain of some politician or political faction thereof.
There la more "blue sky" in cam¬ paign promises of many politicians running for ofllce tban was ever con¬ tained in the prospectuses of the bold¬ est promoters of chimerical business schemes. There are more secret com¬ binations formed by politicians in the name of "My Country" than were ever formed under any and all other aliases. There are more political re¬ bates bidden in the phrase "Be it en¬ acted" than were ever concealed un¬ der any and all other disguises.
The inordinate thirst for political power and unrestrained passion for mastery has caused more distress in this nation tbhn the greed for gold, and it ought to be regulated by law. Ko business combination ever pursued their competitors as relentlessly or visited more heartless cruelty npon their customers than a political party that seeks to make Junk of an in¬ dustry, or cripple a business for party success, through tariff measures, po¬ litical supervision and ofttlmes de¬ structive legislation. Many political platforms are as alluring to the voter as the story of the rainbow with its pot of gold and their consummation about as far-fetched. Self-gain is the first law In politics. There are many men in ofllco today who. If they could not shake plums off the tree of American liberty or cut a melon taken from Uncle Sam's commissary, would have less desire to serve the public.
The country is surfeiting with patri¬ ots, who will bare their breast to bul¬ lets In defense of their country, but there are few men In public life who wlll bare their breast to voters or run the gauntlet of party disfavor in de¬ fense of agriculture or Industry. No representative of the people, who wlll permit personal prejudice to dethrone justice, party success to disfranchise reason or the rancor of a political campaign to influence judgment can render capable service.
Tbe preservation of our prosperity depends upon wisdom, courage and honesty In government, and the Amer¬ ican voter should seek these attri¬ butes as Implicitly as the Wise Men followed the Star of Bethlehem and they wlll often be found to rest over the stable; the plow or the staff of the Shepherd. The surest cure for tainted politica and machine rule is fresh air and sihMilne and these Im¬ portant elements are most abundant upon the farm, and wben farmers, bankers and merchants are elected to membership in legislative bodies, much of the trouble in government will dis¬ appear.
leETpfRITIES
By Peter Radford. Much has been said and more writ¬ ten about the evils of watered stock in big business concerns and the farm¬ ers of this nation believe that every dollar written Into the life of any business organization, should be able to say "1 know that my Redeemer liveth," but farming is the biggest business on earth, and there Is more water In its flnancial transaction than that of any other industry. There is as much water in a farmer's note drawing eight or ten per cent interest when other lines of industry secure money for four or five per cent per annum, as there Is in a business pay¬ ing a reasonable compensation upon the face value of securities repre¬ senting an investment of only flfty cents on the dollar. The only dif¬ ference Is, the water Is In the Interest rate In one instance and in the secur¬ ities In the other.
The promoter ofttlmes takes chances and his success Is contingent upon the development of the property in¬ volved but the usurer, as a rule, takea no chances and his success cripples the property involved. There may be industries that cry louder but none that suffer more severely from finan¬ cial immorality in both law and cus¬ tom than thit of agriculture.
The farmers of America today are paying $200,000,000 per annum In usury on real estate and chattel loans, and this interest capitalized at flve per cont, represents 14,000,000,- 000 of flctitlous values which the farm¬ er is paying Interest on. This sum of money is almost equal to the annual value of crops produced in the United States.
The eai^ing power of the farmer's note based upon his interest rate very nearly divides likes the earth's sur¬ face—three-fourths water and one- fourth land. The largest body of wa¬ ter that floats upon the flnancial hem¬ isphere now rests upon the farms and Its waves are dashing and its bUIows are rolling against seven mil¬ lion homes threatening ruin and dis¬ aster to the prosperity of the nation. Will our puMic servants who under¬ stand how to drain the liquid off in¬ dustrial properties turn tlie faucet and let the water off the farms?

The kills bill, a simplifled digest and an iruprovcuieiit of eimtiar biiis to stop fraudulent and misleading ad¬ vertising, especially in offers aqo sales of rea! egtate,^and Introduced in the State Senate on March 16, 1915, was signed by Governor Whitman on May 10.
It Is hoped that the provisions of this act wlll stop the questionable practices of many realty companies and real estate agents. It Is aimed particularly at development compa¬ nies which promise much and give lit¬ tle to the buyer. It covers drastically literature, circulars and letters of real estate companlea which hereaf¬ ter must bold facts and be In posi¬ tion unqualifiedly to prove them. The Mills bill, if enforced, will be an in¬ vulnerable safeguard of investors.

It is an admitted economic fact that there can be no permanent prosperity withoat a permanent agriculture.
Agricoiture Is recognized aa the greatest of all industries and a pros¬ perous, progressive and enlightened agricultural population is the surest safeguard of civilization.
