Your Monthly Report For August.
Comrade C. r. Tiede, from local
Chimney Creek, visited the office for
an hour last week. He advised us
that the local was very much alive,
and that they hoped to get a county
ticket in Blaine county this fall. We
hope they succeed in doing SO, but
they will have to hustle as they have
only until September 5th, to do so.

Tavenners' Speeches.
AS result of the mention of the
speeches by Clyde H. Tavenner a short
time ago we have received orders from
Plummer and Mullan. We have only a
few of them left just now, but are 60
ing to try to get several thousand
more. They are the cheapest and best
anti-preparedness literature we can
distribute. Send for bundle of them
and distribute them in your section.
Don't send US the names as we hav'nt
the time to address them. We are COW
cred up with work. You can do the
addressing in the same length of time
that it will take you to write the list
of names.
Your Monthly Report.
We have received several monthly
reports along about the middle of the
month and consequently could not in
clude them with the others. Our re-
port to the national office is made up
at the expiration of the 18th day of
the month and in order that yours may
be included it must be mailed to this
office not later than the 10th day of
the month.

Action Is All We Need.
A letter from comrade o. H. Price
of Pocatello, county secretary of Ban
mock county shows you how they do
things there. The letter follows:
Dear Comrade:
Am enclosing the first copy of our
weekly paper. This is the surprise l
mentioned in my last letter. This lit
tie sheet has stirred Pocatello as it
has not been stirred in many a day.
You will notice a mention of Mrs.
Sherman and her bum check. Well,
on Saturday, a few hours after the
paper appeared, the officers were cal
ling on her and beseeching her to ac-
cept the money and willing to promise
most anything if the matter could be
hushed up. (Comrade Price did not
make this matter quite clear to me but
it seems that the Mrs. Sherman men
toned had been fined $500. Having
appealed the case she won the de-
cision and her fine was RENTED in
the form of bogus check. Some
results, don't you think. But the best
part of the papers appearance was the
finding of place to put it. We have
it in fine glass fronted case, and
secured permission to hang it on the
side of the Hub Clothing store. 1t had
not been there many minutes until the
sidewalk was blocked, some of the
plute Stockings raving and tearing
their hair over the lying sheet, and
some of the Henrys laughing and
boosting the game. 1t surely was rich.
Then the proprietor of the Hub got
busy on the telephone, trying to get
hold of some one of we Socialists who
would take the pesky thing down.
Finally as last resort he appealed to
the owner of the building and we had
to move it. We secured another loo
alton, but not nearly so good. The
proprietor of the Hub is sorry already,
as the union men, from whom he gets
most of his business, are kicking about
his action against the paper. AS you
no doubt guess, yours truly is editor
of the paper, but the public of Poca-
tellO does not know it. Several dozen
people, among them the owners of the
Tribune, have made considerable effort
to find out who is editing the sheet.
