The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1908-09-24

E. K. Slater, chief of the state food
and dairy department., is quoted as
saying that the cooperative (farmers')
creameries manufacture much better
butter than the centralizing concerns.
This is beyond dispute. Cream used
by the centralizers is shipped to them
largely from the country districts and
it is ofttimes rancid before placed on
the train. Farmers ship stuff to the
centralizers which would be rejected
by the cooperative creameries-any
old stuff which some time or other
came from the COW in the shape of
milk. State dairy inspectors have
declared before audiences in Princeton
that they have found at the city
centralizing plants cream that was
alive with maggots, and there is no
reason to dispute their word. Then
why should not the butter manu-
featured by the cooperative cream
cries, which accept no rancid or mag
gotty cream, be the best?
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1908-09-24

Joe Cannon says the stand he has
taken on the tariff question was pre-
scribed and insisted upon by President
Roosevelt, but here are few OF his
personal ideas on the problem which
contains considerable logic:
"The foreigners don't pay any OF
our taxes. They don't help US to keep
up our schools and public institutions.
Then why should we let them come in
and share our profits of trade? I say
give the people at home who pay the
taxes the inside track on our trade.
The democratic platform wants to tear
down the tariff wall, which means that
our labor must suffer as we'll as our
agricultural and Industrial commerce.
The republicans propose to adjust the
tariff, cut it down where it is now too
high, but in doing so we will fully
protect our own labor. We have had
a protective tariff ever since the days
of Lincon, except for four years, and
you folks know what happened in
those four years. 80
