Minnesota Congressman.
HEDGES ON NELSON STORY
CHASING Gopher Senator as Friend.
iy" 20 Manufacturers-Add
Letters Read in Praise OF Former
Representative Watson.

Washington, July 23--Proceedings
in the Mulhall investigation demon
strated more clearly than ever that
there was no foundation for the
charge Mulhall originally made that
Senator Nelson was easily reached
and influenced" to favor legislation in
the interest of the National Associa
ton OF Manufacturers.
On cross-examination Mulhall admit
ted that the only basis for his state
ment was the adverse report Senator
Nelson drafted on the bill to amend
the Sherman antitrust law.
Did you have any other ground for
your statement that Senator Nelson
was 'friendly?'" asked Senator Reed.
None whatever said Mulhall. Let
ters introduced showed that Mulhall
interviewed Minnesota members of
the house In 1909. 1t appears that he
called upon Representatives Volstead,
Stevens, Hammond and Steenerson in
reference to the establishment of a
tariff commission.
All but MIR. Steenerson said they
were opposed to the tariff commission
idea II found it was no use to waste
my time on Mr.. Volstead,'' said the
Mulhall letter of Jan. 80, 1909.
Says Emery Was Lobbyist"
Mulhall swore that he drew $500
from a Baltimore bank to be paid
to former Representative James Wat
son. Mulhall swore that Watson had
made the office of James A. Emery his
for governor OF Indiana in 1908. En-
cry, Mulhall swore, was the chief
lobbyist for the manufacturers

mittee.
"Mr. Watson stated that he would
see that that committee was fixed up
as we'll as 1t was possible to fix it. or
in other words, just the way we want
ed it," said the letter.
In a letter of Feb. II Mulhall wrote
Schwedtman about the activities OF
Cannon, Watson, Sherman, Crane and
others to pass the bill to make Sena-
tor Knox eligible to the Taft cabinet.
Senator Nelson's name was men
toned again by Mulhall In a letter to
Schwedtman Feb 90. He told of an
extended interview with the senator
on labor bills and the decision Of the
Judiciary committee on proposed
Sherman law amendments. Senator
Nelson has testified he had no inter
views with Mulhall

Fifteenth Lesson

@. Why is this country called
the Big Meadows?
A. Because of the wonderfully
nutritious grasses that grow
here in abundance.
q. What is conservation?
A. A leading topic of conversa-
ton.
Q. How does conservation res
emble charity?
A. 1t is preached more than it
is practiced, also it should
begin at home.
Q. What is the most valuable
asset of Perkins county and
the Big Meadows?
A. The most valuable asset of
the entire western part of
the Sunshine State, yester-
day, today and tomorrow.
last year, this year and next
and for some years to come,
is its natural pasturage.
@. Just how valuable is this
pasturage?
A. t is invaluable. There
are several million tons of
it in Perkins county and it
has a feeding value equal to
the best hay grown.
@. What are we doing with this
peerless stock-food?
A. Watching it wave in summer
+ breezes and furnish fuel for
destructive fires, when it
might be converted into sill.

notes, which in turn would
build churches, schools and
homes, improve roads and
start the country well along
the highway of permanent
prosperity and progress.
q. Who is the modern Midas
to turn grass into gold?
A. The mythical Midas, with
the golden touch had nothing
over the dairy cows, horses
and sheep, fed and fattened
on the nutritious grasses of
western South Dakota, when
it comes to converting grass
into gold.
q. What is the system?
A. This is the system; let there
be no rest on the part of
business men, bankers, farm
ers, farming experts and
Better Farming Associations
until this great west-of-the-
river empire, with it's mil.
lions of acres of excellent
grazing lands is stocked to
its full capacity with good
grades of cattle horses and
sheep. T h e n supplement
the natural grasses which
are as good as the best that
grow, with alfalfa, corn and
OF h er cultivated crops,
grown under the most ap-
proved scientific methods,

and there it will stay hence
