liquor laws were generally visited
with equally prompt and effective
punishment by state and local authori-

complaint about illegal traffic. The
enforcement of state laws to the let

The fact of the matter is the most
effective temperance reformer we
have had in this state for long while
is "PGssyfoot" Johnson, the agent of
the interior department at Washing
ton, who has made more dry territory
in this state than all the state bitches.
He passed through st. Paul the other
day. He had a companion. He was
taking him to Saltwater. His name
was George Richie, and he had been
convicted of selling two bottles of
liquor to Indiana, and was sentenced

And the Whole Dairy Industry
Suffers on Account of the
Low Quality of Cream De
manded by Centralizers St.
Paul Wants Clerk of Supreme
Court and Two Judges Some
Real Prohibition.

st. Paul, Dec. 1.-THE co operative
and other local creameries have
locked horns with the centralizers be-
fore the railroad and warehouse COM
mission. The centrallzers want low
er rate on cream and milk, especially
for long hauls. The country cream
cries resist the demand, seeing in it
only the evidences of design on the
part of the centralizers to attack the
sources of their supplies. Ordinarily
it would appear to the advantage of
producers to have as low rate as
possible on their products. This can
hardly be said to be the case, how
ever, where shipments of milk and
cream are concerned. There seems to
be no doubt that, speaking of the
dairy interests as whole, their ad-
vantage lies in local control of the
manufacture of dairy products. If
through a low rate on milk and cream
a competition is set up which deprives
the local creamery of the supplies
needed to do a profitable business and
it is compelled to suspend operations,
thus making dairymen dependent alb
soIutely on the centralizers for mar
ket, all experience indicates that the
sacrifice of their independence will
prove losing game in the long run.
Much damage has already been done
to the dairy interests of Minnesota

ticket, if we except the two positions
on the bench Itself which we now
hold. The candidate in question is
George A. Dix, a prominent and active
st. Paul Republican politician. 1t is
well understood here that Mr.. Dix will
have the support of the local leaders.
That is one of the reasons why the
proposition to endorse Judge O'Brien
finds so small favor among the politi-
clans, although there are others who
would like to see him turned down.
It wouldn't be well in Mr.. Dix's in
terest to overload the ticket with St.
Paul men. Mr.. Dix, therefore, will
have the endorsement of the st. Paul
delegation it is understood, and the
leaders, with this as nucleus, expect
to be able to make the combinations
necessary to insure his nomination.
So that Mr.. Caswen has fight on his
hand to retain the position against
politicians and interests which cannot
very well be ignored.

thru the competition of the central
izer plants. Gilt-edge butter can only
be made from pure milk and cream.
1t is well known that centralizers do
not insist that the milk and cream
shipped to them shall be in perfect
condition. Country creameries which
have to meet this kind of competition
are, therefore, compelled to lower
their standards. They are not in a
position to insist that dairymen take
the necessary precaution to keep their
milk pure and free from taint where
patrons can otherwise dispose of taint-
ed milk. The result is the inevitable
acceptance by local creameries of in
ferior milk or cream; to do that a con-
sequent sacrifice in the quality of
butter must be made. When this is
the case to any large extent the repu-
tation of Minnesota butter is sure to
suffer. The effect is to lower the
price which Minnesota butter can
command merely by reason of Min
nesota brand.

However, Mr.. CasWell isn't going
to have it all his own way. In st. Paul
we have for some time had a man

ing otherwise represented on the state

cream produced on the farms and that

cream produced on the farms and that
it spells disaster to the cooperative
and independent creamery. It is their
conviction that for temporary adj
vantage in price the farmers cannot
afford to sacrifice the control of an in
dustry upon which their welfare SO
largely depends. They have studied
this question in all its phases. and
that they should be unanimous in the
decision they have reached indicates
clearly that in the long run it will not
pay to sacrifice local industry which
has already done SO much for the
state and on which in the future the
prosperity of the farmers will large
ly depend. The welfare of the dairy :
ing industry depends largely on the
protection farmers and those who rep
resent farmers can throw around the
Co operative and the independent To-
cal creamery.
Morris tribune., 1909-12-17

An interesting situation has arisen
with respect to the Office of the clerk
of the supreme court, which, it will be
remembered, is elective. This posi-
ton has been held by Carl A. Pigeon
since 1902. Recently he resigned to
engage in the practice of law and the
judges filed his place by promoting
I, A. Caswell of Anoka, who had been
his deputy. Mr.. Pigeons sonshas been
appointed in Mr.. Caswell's place. 1t
has been understood for some time
that Mr.. Caswell intended to be cam
didate before the Republican convea-
ton for the clerkship. This recess ap-
pointment, which is virtual endorse
ment of Mr.. Caswen by the supreme
bench, can be readily understood to
better his chances of securing the
nomination, the people being inclined
to select an officer SO clearly in line
for the position, and at the same time
being averse to introducing more poll
itics than is inevitable into semi-
judicial position of this kind. Mr..
Caswell is country newspaper man
and has many friends among s'the
boys"

The indications are that dounty op-
tion will get but little support from
the Prohibitionists. The head of the
Prohibition organization has recently
taken occasion to openly give notice
of his disapproval of the program of
the anti-saloon league. w. G. Calder
wood has declared that shigh license
and county option, instead of being
aids to the cause of prohibition are
hindrances, and instead of being steps
forward are steps backward" 1t is a
curious circumstance that in every
temperance movement short of pro-
hibition extreme prohibition leaders
have invariably been the most effect
i've allies of the saloons. If they can't
get their own brand of temperance re-
form they don't want any,

Butter from Minnesota should be as
staple as butter from Denmark. sIn
the European markets all that need
be known of butter is that it is Danish.
That means that it is the best the
market affords. Minnesota butter will
never have that reputation until the
dairyman control its manufacture.
They can never hope to control it SO
long as they are willing to sacrifice
the interest of the local creamery to
the centralizer. The dairy industry is
the one growing agricultural industry
of this state. 1t will continue to pros
per and grow in proportion as the
farmers keep it within their control
and refuse to prevent its monopoliza-
ton by centralizer combinations.

In the hearing before the railroad
and warehouse commission the dairy
man and cooperative creameries are
represented by E. T. Young. The
state dairy department is interesting
itself on their behalf. So are the dali
rymen and creamerymen's associa-
tions. The organizations which rep
resent the dairying and buttermaking
interests are all opposed to the. lower
rates asked for by the centralizers.
They have studied the situation. They
know the effect of centralizer competi-
ton is to lower the grade of milk and
