Editions as was the Roman diety.
Recently Mr. Gronna defined ''in-
linsurgentism" in an issue of The
York Evening Post the article appear
ing above his signature and under the
caption Free Of Cannonism." Pond
erous reference is made to progress
siye legislation large interests"
party pledges" popular govern
ment,' and various other phrases
which were i'm the M this of men
sincere while he was yet sycophant to
the interests
Remarkable in it's brevity is his
yelled reference to his past conduct
ism, he states. " has been of gradual
quiesced in because ii was believed
that in was necessary, in order to Sc
cure the enactment Of legislation do
sired by the majority"
This statement alone condemns
Congressman Gronna by his own
mouth.
Acuuiescence to Cannonisn was a
matter of policy-a policy which in
his case covered his official actions in
Washington and HIS political sub
lection to damnable system of cor
porate tyranny at home. The "neces-
sity" OF an elected member OF congress
becoming corporation tool, mileage
distributor, and defender of political
infamy, remains to be explained!
In Gronna's case let us ask what
legislation of moment to this state has
he gained by past trucking? How
many measures detrimental to the in
terests Of the country at large have
received his assistance and vote in
the interests Of necessity?
MIR. Gronna would have his con-
stituents belive that he was an ami
able and plant legislator-who crafti-
ly sacrificed q little to gain greater
things. We know how evilty those
little sacrifices wrought harm to the
welfare of the nation--but we have
never seen the sum total of the gain
which was claimed. Ty the offices of
Gronna and his ilk, O. great nation,
which now might be enjoying the
fruits of sane and Just conduct, is
plunged perforce into a seething con-
flict of politics.
Gronna and his kind laid the corn
er stone mixed the mortar, and rails
Of actual labor in the interests of the
machine.
When the public finally cognizant,,
through the efforts of bold and IL
lustrous little band of reformers-in
whose noble roster we would search
vainly for the name of Gronna--of the
trend of affairs at home and in con-
gress, the insurgent movement began.
1t is laudable, righteous in purpose,
and dedicated to success. But it's
fame is smirched by the false prophets
who at heart still damn the motives
which impell it-as Gronna damned
them in 1908.
Janus-faced-sree applauding
-reviling-espousing-f awning be-
traying!
Is this an insurgent?

Forum: One of the saddest incidents,
amounting almost TO a tragedy, oc-
CURED a few miles north of wheatland

promising children by the grim reaper.
Death. Scarlet fever was the agent
that carried the children away-all in

blessed by her presence.

catchy ads and bids fair to be what Il
aims to be-a first class country week.
