RUSSIAN COOPERATIVE
MOVEMENT IS THRIVING

There Is economic strength in the
Russian cooperative movement. The
growth Of the cooperative societies
since the beginning of the war has
established them as probably the
most stable factor in Russia.
In addition to their activities in
commodity buying and selling, they
have built up solid financial struc-
ture. The Moscow Narodny bank
founded by them in 1912, has been
the only bank off which the bolshe-
viks have kept their hands When
the holshevik bank -nationalizinE act
waR passed, "A force OF Reds at
tempted to take possession OF the
Moscow bank. But the cooperative
socities protested that II was n bank
o' the people and conducted IN their
interest, and could not be taken
away from them. As n result the
oscow Narodny bank has not since
been interfered with. Its turnover
for the year 1917 was more than
5000, 900 900 rubles.
The consumers societies, which
were among the earliest Of the CO.
operatives, date back to 1865. But
they did not begin to be widespread
until 1900. Since the start of the
war in 1914 they have more than
doubled in number. The first CON
sumers' society to he organized
among industrial workers was found
ed in 1870 at the kynov works. far
up In the Ural mountains The ex-
pertinent has since been successfully
repeated in many factory centers.

per cent in freight rates was granted
to the Saratoga & E%ncampment Rail

Board as a result of the recent hearing,

the whole country are to be advanced
by an even larger percentage during
the next few weeks by order of Direc'
tor General McAdoo.

Not Our Fault

Every once in a while some
person enters complaint that
the names of all the soldier boys
serving under the colors have
not been included in the honor
roll of Bayfield, county soldiers
which has been published from
time to time.
These lists have not been
compiled by the newspapers but
the names have been handed to
us for publication through the
County Council of Defense.
This work has been handed over
to Harvey Irish who is compiling
a complete list of all Bayfield,
county soldiers, whether enlist
ing from the county or otherwise.
and as soon as this list has been
completed in every detail the
honor roll will again be published
and it will contain all of the
names.
1t has not been the intention
of anyone to slight anyone and
for this reason it was thought
advisable not to publish any fur
ther names until the complete
list could be published and until
this is ready in every detail the
names will not be furnished
again for publication.
Anyone knowing of any SOL
dier boy who has enlisted from
other points who rightfully be-
longs to Bayfield, county should
communicate with Harvey Irish
that he may get a record OF his
enlistment.
