The place chosen for this big rally is the Crystal Springs, where loud speakers will be installed so that ev eryone may hear the President's ad dress. Committees were named to direct the drive to enroll at least 1,000 members in the county at $1.00 each, the money to be used to help finance the coming campaign. A central committee, which included George A. Anderson, Brigham; Leonard Bishop of Garland; Mrs. Bertha Kimber, of Grouse Creek; LeRoy D. White, of Perry; Mrs. Annie Nichols,: of Willard; with Henry Nielsen, of Brigham, as secretary, were chosen to direct the activities throughout the . county. In addition to the above committee, leaders of every precinct were named to work in theif respective precincts. The meeting was an enthusiastic one,' foretelling the energy and pep that will be put into the campaign. Harmony prevailed in everything that was accomplished. Chairman Nello Christofferson called upon a dozen or more people to express their views,, each one expressing a desire to do his full share as a party member. President. Roosevelt came in for the work he is doing in behalf of the common people. Fire Destroys Property Of Marinus Hansen A fire of unknown origin, - which broke out in the barn of Marinus Hansen, of Elwood, Sunday evening, completely destroyed the barn, which was full of hay, all the sheds adjoining, the separator house and several implements and harness. It was only through the efforts of the neighbors and people from all around the valley who gathered that the home and the chicken coops were saved. All the animals were removed from the barn, Fishburn Family Holds Successful Reunion ests," "greedy and avaricious capitalists," "malefactors of great wealth," and "profiteering minorities," an oracle were to shout from the mountain top "Woe unto you nch men, that will not give your substance to the poor, for your riches will canker your souls; and this shall be your lamentation, and- of "judgment, and of indignation. - The'harvest is past, the summer is ettn and my soul is not saved'," M., such an oracle would be marked by many of the money changers as but another Huey Long, a Father Cough-lior a Townsend crying in the economic wilderness. But large masses of indigent and unemployed would rise and call him blersed and rally to his cause like drones to a. new found - , -- n, queen. . ( Let the picture be reversed. In these days of public relief, of FERA, WPA and of "human misery" in the good old U. S. A. let the oracle cry "Woe unto you poor men, whose hearts are not broken, whose spirits are not contrite, and whose bellies are not satisfied, and whose hands are not stayed from laying - hold upon: other men's goods, whoso eyes are full of greediness, and who will not labor with your hands." and you would witness, what a column of conscience-smitte- n relief lined up four abreast to refund to the Government their and unmerited handouts. Well,, hardly. It is more likely that the oracle would be scourged by those he sought most to neip neip now, by taking away their dole? No, by restoring their and social character. No Chastisement en-rol- les self-respe- ct of Rich, Let us suppose that the oracle sought neither to chastise the deserving rich nor to castigate the deserving poor, that his mission was not to decry wealth as such nor to minimize the necessity of taking care of the needy and the unfortunate. Let. us suppose further that his mission was primarily to reclaim the character if not the reputation of his people, to their moral fibre by inducing the rich to give more voluntarily, generously and wisely and the poor to accept more deservingly and less ' willfully. In plain language, let us suppose that the oracle proposed a plan whereby all the poor and unemployed among his people would be taken off Government relief roils,, provided with the necessities of life, or rather, enabled to provide themselves with such, supplied with jobs, ' and asked to "earn their bread by the sweat of their brow," without being reduced to peonage or losing one iota of their personal liberty, and that a means of accomplishing this without saddling on the backs of taxpayers a burden of exorbitant administrative expenses was held out as a promise and a fact. ; A "Prophet" Shows The Way Out.
