"RIRDS OF 4

Bill Haywood, the leader Of the I.
w. w. organization in the United
States has just been convicted, along
with a big bunch of his gangsters, in
the Federal court at Chicago, on the
charge of %obstructing the draft law,
and other charges smelling of sedi-
ton.
Haywood and Townley are close
personal friends and are co-workers
in un-Americanism. They both get
rich in the same way; they take
money from their followers, and If
return they kindly tell them how te
vote.

OVER IS per cent. of the sugar used in the United
~ States is delivered by ships. There is produced
about 800, 900 tons of beet sugar and $4,000 tons of
cane sugar in Louisiana: The total consumption of the
United States is about 800, 900 tons of raw sugar, which
makes about 4,250,0 900 tons Of refined sugar.
If our coasts were ~blockaded as Germany's now are,
we would have available for the use of the people of the
United States only one pound of sugar for every four we
use. Under such circumstances there is no doubt that the
American people would get along on this limited supply
without complaint.
The United States Food Administration is asking
every American household to use not more than two
pounds Of sugar per person each month for domestic
use. Reducing our sugar consumption here means that
we will be able to help supply the needs of France, Eng
land and Italy. Sugar conservation on the American
table also means conservation of ships.
The Army and Navy have sent out an IS. o. S." call
for ships. 'Save Our Ships to Transport Troops and
Munitions to France, in order that we may keep the fight
ing front where it now is and not allow it to extend to
our own homes" is the message.
There is ample sugar in the world for all require
ments-in fact, there is a large surplus, but on account
of the ship shortage it is not available for use in this
country.
Java, which produces Is per cent. of the worlds
cane crop, IS too far removed. It requires $50 to 100
days for a ship to go to Java and return.

FOOD FOR

With the virtual withdrawal of
Harry H. Parsons of Missoula and
Judge Edmund Nichols Of Billings
from the race for the nomination for
United States Senator, the Republican
voters of Montana have left for them
the choice of two candidates, on the
one side a loyal, 100 per cent Ameri-
can citizen with every qualification
to fill the position he seeks, and on
the other a lady who stands self
branded as a sympathizer and up
holder of the lawless l. w. w. and
un-American element of the nation.
While Miss Rankin has filed her pc
titions on the Republican ticket, her
every action proves that she is simply
using the party as a means to place
her name on the official ballot and
in commenting on the same, j. A.
Gilluly of the Fergus County Argus,
says:
"True it is that Jeanette Rankin
has filed her petition as a candidate
on the Republican ticket, but Miss
Rankin is no more a Republican than
is Leon Trotsky, formerly of Russia

CDR. Lanstrum is now and has beer
for years, n of the live, active, in
fluential and consistent members OF
the party in Montana. He is a worke,
who takes his coat off when there is
something to do, and his indomabl'
energy is backed up by intellectual
ability of a high class. Since the day:
of Hon. Thomas H. Carter the stat
of Montana has never had an oppor
tunity of sending a brainier mar t
the senate.
Judge Nichols and Mr.. Parsons ar
to be congratulated upon their part

action of Withdrawing.

the way clear for the Republicans o

headed, 100 per cent American ger

OF THAT,

A careful once over of the candl-
dacy of the lady from Montana"
would indicate that the candidacy in
itself is absurd, unreasonable, IRA
%tional, foolish, nonsensical, ridiculous,
unwise, silly, stupid, preposterous,
ill-judged, ill-advised, contrary to
reason, contrary to dictate of COM
NOR sense, self-contradictory, nuga-
tory and essentially socialistic. And
it is suspected of having other faults.

Notwithstanding the fact that Harry H. Parsons If
Missoula and Judge Nichols of Billings endeavored to
withdraw from the United States senatorial race. S. G..
Ford, attorney general, held that their names would have

Therefore, you will find that the names of both Mr..

when you go in to vote.
Inasmuch as both of these gentlemen have virtually
withdrawn from the race, however, a vote for either Of
them will simply act as a vote for Jeanette Rankin and
