The producers news. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1918-1937, 1918-10-11

States provide that the United States
Senator shall be elected by direct
vote of the people. Mr.. Stoner will
stand by the constitution in that re-
gard.
Mr.. Lowe also says: 81 viii uphold
and stand for all laws that stand for
good American Governments" Just
how he makes the above harmonic
with his position on the United States
Senatorial election, he does not tell.
Needless to say that Clair Stoner
will uphold and work for all laws
that stand for good American gov
ernment," also.
|. Banker Lowe says further: Il will
during the period Of the war oppose
all legislation in regard to county di-
vision," which plank needs no COM
ment: Clair Stoner will do the same
Banker Lowe goes further and
says: II will work against all unne-
cessary legislation"
Banker Lowe does not tell us what
he considers unnecessary legisla-
tion."
He does not tell US whether he will
decide what is necessary or unneces-
sary legislation or whether the
sKopper Krowd' will do that for him.
All of the forces of Hopper are
supporting him.
Banker loves slogan, which will
be printed on his ballot is as follows:
'True Americanism = Elimination
of all unnecessary legislation-A
square deal to ALL"
What does Banker Lowe consid-
Ell "a square deal to ALL"
Will he decide that or will "kop-
per" and the Sheridan County Bank
ers' Association decide that. And
will what the above people consider
a square deal, be considered a square
deal by the farmers? Will anything
that is considered square by the
farmers, or relieve the farmers from
the merciless exploitation by "big
biz" be considered square deal by
the Anaconda Copper Mines and their
fanatical mouthpiece, Mr.. Will Camp
bell of the Helena Independent?
Banker Lowe talks in glittering
generalities; there is not one thing
in all of his platform except his po-
sition on the election of the United
States Senator that is to the point or
means anything.
Now let us see what Farmer Ston-
er will support and what he consld-
ers necessary legislation. Here it is
in black and white:
1. Exemption of Farm Improve
ments from Taxation.
2. Rural Credit Banks operated
at cost:
3. State Terminal Elevators,
Warehouses, Flour Mills, Stock
Yards, Packing Houses, Creameries
and Cold Storage Plants.
4. State Hail Insurance.
| 5. State INSPECTION of Dockage
and Grading of Grain.
| 6. Torrens Land Title System.
7. Nonpartisan Election Law.
8. EQUAL Taxation of Railroads,
Mines, Telegraph, Telephone, Elec-
trio Light and Power Companies, and
all Public Utility Corporations.
9. State Rural Telephone Sys-
TEN operated at cost.
Now, who do you want for senator:
Banker Lowe or Farmer Stoner?
II you want the League program
vote for Clair Stoner, the farmer.
If you want things just as they
are. or a banker and "Kopper"
program, vote for Henry Lowe, the
Banker
Don't get your men mixed: Bank
er Lowe is fine man personally and
a good man for the bankers and
"copper"" Farmer Stoner is a fine
man personally, and just the man for
the farmers.
If you believe in "Kopper," vote
for Lowe.
If you believe in the farmers and
the League Program, vote for Stoner.
The struggle is between ideas and
| not men.
i All that has been said for Stoner is
also true of Nyquist for representa-
tive.
