Negotiations Over Milk Prices.
Agents of the bottling factory met
some of the dairymen at the Randolph
House last Monday evening, with the
view of inducing the farmers to sell their
milk to the factory. The White Cross
agents were anxious for the milk and
made various suggestions sd OFFERS
Finally, the company pret~nt selected a
committee of three to maks . scale of
prices that would be satisfactory to the
farmers. The committee tpok the matter
into consideration that thG White Cross
company should pay S1.6Q per hundred
for six months, spring and summer, and
s1.80 the remaining six mouths.
The farmers voted generally to aeonpt
that, but the White Cro& agents said
they could not comply win that, but r.
nally offered $1.40 for six spring and sum
mer months and $1.S0 for-the other six
months, making an aversgSsof $1.60 per
hundred through the year, and have a
receiving station here. The cost of haul
ing from here to their factory will be
about 1Oc. Their offer for milk here now
is 1Sc. more per hundred than they have
heretofore offered for milk delivered to
their factory, and with the expense Of
hauling 2Sc. more.
At the price offered, there was not milk
en- ough promised to warrant receiving
station here, but another meeting vas
held last evening.
The White Cross Co. have claimed from
the first that they offered all they could
afford to, and il that was true they must
be paying more than they can afford to,
but no one believes that. Farmers feel
that 25c. per pound for clover seed and s3
per bushei for timothy is high, but they
have to stand it.

the tax amendment. This gave the
corporation attorneysan opportunity
to demand a recount, and an order
was procured from Jud ge Dibell of
Duluth land Duluth it must be re-
membered is the home of this trust)
appointing a commission of three to
make the recount. The recount was
made in a large number of cities,
and many errors discovered. In the
city of Redwood Falls a mistake of
q votes was discovered. After sew
eral months work the commission
claim to have found enough errors
to overthrow the amendment, and
the matter is now hung up for final
decision in the supreme court of
this state.
In order to remove all doubt as to
its passage our last legislature de-
cided to resubmit the amendment to
another vote this fall, and it will be
voted on again next November Sd.
Another thing our voters do not
seem to understand, and that is in
order to carry a constitutional
amendment it must have a majority
of all the votes cast at the election.
If voter votes for any of the can
didates for office, but fails to vote
on the amendment, his failure to
vote on the amendment is counted
vote against it. To illustrate:
Suppose 100000 votes are cast for
all the candidates for governor, and
50, 900 votes are cast for the amend
ment, and not a single voter in the
state marks his ballot as voting no
(that is the other 1900 simply do
not vote on it at alp yet the amend
ment would be clearly lost for the
reason that it did not have a major
ity of the votes cast at the election.
A failure to vote on the amendment
is a vote against it. / am well aware
that the Sage of Vesta (my friend
Arnold) may take some exception to
this. And while l give him full cred
it for being sincere, yet / cannot
subscribe to the proposition that the
constitution is sacred and should not
be tempered with. The constitution
was made by human hands and is
consequently full of human error.
We cannot successfully claim that
our forefathers in writing it were
divinely inspired, and the fact that
age has been added to error does
not make it any more sacred, parti-
cularly so as this divine error seems
to be working in favor Of the giant
steel octopus and like corporations

FOOLISH VOTING.
Continued from first page.)

people Of our state. 1t is not ques-
ton of Republicanism or Democracy,
it is question of square deal. We
believe that every voter in Redwood
county, regardless Of political COM
plexion, should vote for this amend
ment. Redwood county owes the
steel trust nothing.
Another thing which this amend
ment would have permitted, and
that is to amend cur tax laws so
that our local money loaners would
not be Disseminated against in favor
of outside financial barons. Our
constitution today prohibits the tax
alton Of mortgages owned by parties
out of the state, but local parties
holding local mortgages are taxed.
The result is that it tends to drive
away local capital, and favors out
side capital. Is it not time that we
did something for Minnesota and
kept our money here, instead of so
generously assisting Wall Street and
Eastern money markets? When will
we end such suicidal policy?
This amendment if adopted will
give the legislature a free hand to
adopt any kind of an income tax, in
heritance tax, tonnage tax on iron
ore, registry tax on mortgages and
gross earnings tax on railroads and
like corporations.
When the votes were counted on
the amendment two years ago, the
firstindications were that the amend
ments had carried. Then the attor-
neys for the United States Steel Cor
poration got busy. 1t was discovered
that some errors had been made in
the counting. 1t was found that the
printers in printing the tally sheets
for the general election had placed
the amendment second on the ballot
(the road and bridge amendment
at the head of the tally sheet. The
printers had further switched the
tax amendment which was first or
the ballot to number two on the
tally sheet. This error was not dis.
covered by large number of judges
and clerks of election all over the
state, the result was that the where
the error was not discovered the
votes that were actually cast for the
tax amendment were counted as
cast for the road and bridge fund,
and the votes cast for the road and
bridge fund were counted as cast fol

at the expense of the balance Of the
people of our state.
The road and bridge fund amend
ment of two years ago will be voted
on again this year. There seems to
be great difference of opinion as
to the wisdom of creating a state
road and bridge fund to be paid out
in constructing state roads.
The third amendment proposed is
to create state fund to pay damag-
es done to growing crops by hail and

with dignity. The king lives, just
as his subjects do, in a mud or bam-
boo hut, devoid of furniture or
utensils, and has no idea Of increas-
ing his comforts or developing his
territory. but simply by adding to
his golden ornaments.

What Congress Has Not Done.

In reviewing the work of Con-
gress, which has just adjourned the
Republicans themselves can find very
little to commend, while those Re-
publicans who believe in the Presi-
dents policies will find much to con-
denim. 1t has absolutely ignored
every important recommendation
made by the President. 1t is a
Congress guilty more of sins of
omission than of commission. II
failed to remove the duty on wood
pulp, because the paper trust was
opposed to it, in the face of the fact
that the demand from the people
was overwhelming. The Republi-
cans were even afraid TO let the
matter come to a vote in the House,
because they knew it would pass.
Even a worse case Of omission was
the strangling in the committee the
Publicity bill which required political
parties to publish full list of cam
paign expenses and from what
