situation is ov~ershadoweG by all
these important things which take so
much of our real interest and time.
He said, however, that while it is
true that outwardly there is not much
Indication of interest in the coming
elections, in reality the people are
giving a good deal of thought to polit-
ical matters, tt conditions and issues,
as his growing volume of correspond
ence indicates.
Going tc Win War.
In reference to issues, Mr.. Byrne
said.
N0f course, our main business now
is to win the wal. Everything else
is subordinate to this. Everything we
have and are and can do must be
bent to that end. We are going to
win. All loyal citizens are agreed
on that. We have no trouble in get
ting men-they are coming forward
faster than they can be taken care
of. The only question is as to how we
will raise the money to finance it
how is the burden to be distributed.
I favor a much higher tax on swollen
incomes and a~scertained war profits
than congress provided for in the
revenue bill passed last fall.
we know that huge fortunes, large
incomes-the greatest ever seen un.
der the shining sun-areb being coined
out of var conditions. Since the be-
ginning Of the conflict some Of the
corporations are making unbelievable
profits

big Incomes and a~scertained wal pro-
fits commensurately. Their efforts
failed, though they presented an IN
answerable argument in behalf of
such a course.
Sterling Against Proposals.
Senator Sterling voted against
every proposal to lay a moderately
adequate tax on big profits and war
profits. He peristently voted no on
every proposition to increase such
taxes, thus voting to generously leave
to corporations enormous profits due
directly to the war.
"In the case of the u. S. Steel Cor
poration this excess is nearly, if not
quite, $500, 00o, 000-$1, 900, 900 for ev-
cry working day in the year-above
their pre-war earnings. These stu
pendous incomes and war profits
should be adequately taxed to finance
the war. We should surely be as
ready to take an adequate share of
the war profits, coined directly from
the travail of the nation, as to take
the youth of the land, as we properly
do, to fight the battles of the country.
Railroads..
81 hold that Congress should not
have passed the law to turn the rail
roads back to the companies at a
fixed time. This question should, al
least, have been left open to be de.
termined when the time comes for
considering it at the close of the
war.
Notwithstanding the excessive
charges and inordinate earnings of the
roads in recent years, we find that
! private management utterly failed to
meet the emergency caused by the.
war and it became imperatively neees
sary for the government to take con-
troll. to bring order and efficiency out
of the chaos into which they had
fallen.
"The provisions for compensation
to the companies are unfair. and UNI,
just to the public and provide a rate
of return that is beyond all reason.
Remember the roads broke down
under the demands of the time and
utterly failed to meet the require
ments of the public; that the goveril
ment was obliged to take them ever.
to reorganize and rehabilitate their
activities.
Compensation on water"
Now congress passes a law proyid-
ing for such compensation as will
give them inordinate dividends OF all
stock-including watered stock which
represents on Investment, estimated
at nearly one-third of the whole-divis
dends that will average close to 10
per cent.
Senator Cummins stated in the
senate that the compensation to the
roads under the law would be $780,.
100000 in excess Of what would be
fair and reasonable-yes, liberal com
~pensation.
Not only are the companies tollave
this excessive compensation, but it lis
provided that when the crisis Is past
which necessitated taking control of
the roads they are to be handed back

FARM BUREAU NOTES
q q q . q q q q = q q q .

y e e g =
A few county agents of central Min
nesota met in Saint Paul, July p, to
receive instructions from L. B. Bassett,
the grain threshing division representa-
tive. The following suggestions were
given out for the benefit of the thresh-
ermen and the farmer.
l. All extras and repairs should be
orederd as soon as possible as it is hard
to receive prompt shipments during the
busy season.
2. Threshermen should provide them
selves with canvas to spread under
the machine to catch all loose grain.
3. The general opinion was that a
fair price for threshing would range
around Sc for oats and barley, and 7c
for rye and wheat. The government
does not intend to control prices in any
part Of the state, but will figure out a
fair price on cost basis.
4. Marquis wheat should not be cut
until fully ripe as it is very hard to
thresh when cut too early.
5. Threshermen must keep a record
Of all wheat threshed and the number of
acres planted to that crop. The fig.
ures must be sent in at the end Of each
month to the county agent IS office from
where they will be telegraphed to Wash.
ington, D. G. A like record Of other
crops threshed must be kept and figures
submitted at the close Of the season
Books for these records can be obtained
from the county agent at any time free
of charge, also pledge certificates fol
pasting on each machine. No other Ii
cense is required by machine operators
The threshermen Of Morrison county
are asked OF get these books as soon
as possible and also to pay the inspec'
ton fee of SIS which was voted on at
the threshermen' meeting in Little
Falls. This charge is not made on those
threshing only for themselves, but rec
ords must be kept by all machine own
ers. The food control act provides fol
a heavy penalty for failure to keep
these records.
