While there are several candidates
for the place, MI, Tharalson's friends

OF PRAISE.

We are publishing in another column
some more favorable comments upo!
the candidacy of w. P. Tuttle for Con
gress. The press of the dis.:.ct has
rothing but kind words for MI. Iuttie
Men a man can pass muster before
the keen scrutiny OF the press, there
must lie some substance to his Can
Ididacy. 49,. +. :.
Csl. futile has grown in popularit,
| with the voters of this district in the
last two years. His platform is right
on all matters. He has taken a defin'
tie stand upon the marketing of farm
products, and he will, if elected, lift
up his voice in the national halls OF
Congress in behalf of all the people,
IND not be the mouthpiece Of the
special interests. He is a clear, indie
pendent thinker.
A vote for Tuttle is a vote for clean,
progressive government, and for real
representation in Congress, rather
than numerical representation only.

BASEBALL IN THE ARMY,

That baseball has been an impor-
tant factor in improving the morals
of the United States troops is evidenC
cd in the reports from the Philippines
More men are actual participants in
the game than in any other branch
of sport, and the soldiers arc taking
such q live interest in the game that
the forms Of recreation and amuse-
ment which have been detrimental
rather than beneficial to the men are
gradually decreasing, says the New
York Times.
The enthusiasm for athletic sports
among the soldiers in the Philippines
has become so prominent that Gen
eral Bell has issued an order for the
formation of an athletic council to
regulate sports of all kinds and place
them on a purely amateur basis.

Producers Are Robbed by

For Twenty Years Farmers Are Taxed for Expense Which in

! market in the United States. Until
prevented by a rule of the Minnesota
Railroad and Warehouse commission,
made November 26, 1918, they charg-
ed an arbitrary switching charge Of
$3.50 on each car Of grain coming
into the Minneapolis terminal. Thou
sands of cars come to Minneapolis
every year, upon which the railroads
charged nc switching charge at all.
But in every case the members of
the Chamber charged $3.50 to the pro-
Queer.
For Twenty Years.
They did this for over 20 years, and
up to the very day when the Mime
sofa Warehouse commission issued
it's order forbidding any. charge to be
made except where the charge was
actually made by the railroads.
According to the figures submitted
by the Minnesota commission, the
members of the Chamber, in the year
1913 alone, charged to shippers over
$50, 900 more than was really paid to
the railroads. This was a deliberate
extortion of owe $1,000 per month:
continued up to the very day it wasi
abolished by law. This is one (rea-i

to "inculcate principles or equity and
justice in the trade" They remem-
Der the switching charge.
In no other grain exchange in, our.
country is the switching charge
charged to the producer at all. In
1912 the Chamber members imposed
this charge on the shippers and $780,
900 more. The practice existed over
20 years, and all the time a golden
stream poured into the Golfers of
millers and elevator men. 1t came
out OF the producers.

One Of the most barefaced eXtor-
tons ever practiced upon the ship
pers of the Northwest was ACCOM-
plished by means of the so-called
Switching charge" imposed by men,
bers of the Chamber of Commerce.
In reality a switching charge is a
charge in the nature of carriage or
transfer. and should not be paid by
the shipper at all. 1t should be paid
by the buyer of the grain, not the
shipper In no grain market in the
United States, except the Chamber
of Commerce, is even the actual
switching charge charged to the ship
per.
A Buyers Market.
In Minneapolis the charge is charg-
ed to the shipper. because it is a
Buyers market. The mills and ele-
vators are the ones who profit
by this charge. Except in rare in.
stances, the commission a does not
profit at all. When he sells to a
mill or elevator, under the rules" he
is forced to turn over the amount of
the switching charge to the mill or
elevator he sells to-. In other words
the commission man is the catspaw.
He deducts the switching charge from
the amount the shipper receives for
his carload Of grain, and then turns
it owe to the millers and elevator
men, who control the Chamber. In
the neighborhood of 20 of the Cham
ber's commission firms are owned by
the mills and elevators. In such
cases the allowance OF the switching
charge to the buying interest is pre-,
sumably merely a matter Of book.
keeping.

than charge back to the shipper the

MAKING THEMSELVES FELT.

American occupation of Vera cruz.
according to press reports, is begin.
ming to make itself felt. Band con-
certs are enlivening social life in Vera
Cruz. Soon the corner lot variety OF
baseball will assist in Americanizing
the Mexicans. Baseball should do
more than anything else to bind those
Mexicans to us with hoops of steel.
Let us hope that the music of the
regimental bands will serve TO soothe
their temper. If a little music and
baseball can turn the tide, let us send
a few more bands and induce some OF
the bush leagues to put on a special
series, to divert the Mexicans from
their troubles.
Nothing like baseball to knit up the
travelled sleeve of care.

Adventures Of .kath(yn,

The fifth installment Of the "Ad-

the hearts Of the spectators who pat
ronize the moving picture shows, to
such an extent that her advent is
watched with considerable interest.
In this. installment she is thrust
into a dungeon and finds her father,
Col. Hare, whom she supposed was
dead. Umballah comes into the dun
gcon and offers to make her his ia.
vorite in his harem. Col. Hare would
have killed him on the spot except
for Kathlyn. tUmballah then swears
vengeance upon the colonel and has
him chained to the walls of the pris-
on. He meets the American hunter
Eruce, and takes counsel, and it is
agreed that Col. Hare must die.
A baboon approaches the window
where Kathlyn and her father are
imprisoned and the former writes a
letter on the sole Of her shoe, which
she ties to the neck of the animal.
This message reaches the hands of
Bruce and Raimabai, who Immediate
ly go to the resuce with an elephant
to pull the strong bars from the dun
geon windows. kathlyn escapes and
plans her fathers release. Kathlyn
entices Umballah to her bungaloo and
after securing him makes him sign
