SIMPSON AND THE FARMERS UNION.

IKE the Grange the Farmers union Is business organ
- saiion concerned chiefly with buying and selling 10
advantage Its bylaws constitution bar politics from
its activities Such organization has Its place in the
business affairs Of the nation quite properly as cham
Der of commerce a retailers association Further TO
the credit Of the Farmers union the fact that at least
in some states it has gone on record opposed to the
suspected and thoroughly undesirable Non Partisan league
Such action Is evidence of It's loyalty TO the nation
Il is unfortunate that organization with fair a
name in certain sections should in this state under
the leadership of a like John A. Simpson It is douby
unfortunate that there the executive committee
eager and willing give Simpson clean bill othealh,
despite the damnng evidence Of dsoyaly which has been
published against the unions state president That Of
these defenders OF Simpson socialist is further mis-
fortune for the union for cannot be good American
and socialist at the same time.
There is no reasonable doubt that Simpson made these
disloyal uerances. The who made adavts TO that
effect were courageous and Simpson cannot offset their
statements by referring the statements "a pack Of
lies" He kid the public II certain Of
calistc tendencies eager TO believe him Perhaps he
hasn, made such remarks since the passage Of the sed
ton law but he isn't alone among dsoyalists to modify
their remarks since that law became effective
And this condemnation Of Simpson comes from within
the union as we'll from outsiders Three members of
the executive committee resigned result of the failure
to ou Simpson, They question his loyalty as do others
who have watched his The loyalty OF the Farmers
union is not questioned The organization whole has
had chance to pass Simpsons case When il does
will be time to pass judgment its position But
berS Of the committee who think Simpson reflections
the organization undoubtedly right about IT, They
should hasten to rid their ranks of such No leg
organization can afford to remain under suspicion of
dsloyalty.
