THE WOOL SITUATION

That the many million of Red Gross
knitters may know the plan OF the Rec
Cross for future knitting, George E
Scott, acting manager of the Amer.
can Red Cross issued the following
statement, according to a telegram
from Washington, D. c., received al
Northwestern Division headquarters
"When the War Industries board
some time ago, advised the Red Cross
that their future production of knit.
ting yarn would be greatly reduced
we Immediately commenced to pur'
chase all yarns suitable for our knit
ting. AS result we have today in
stock or on order 100000 pounds OF
yarn for distribution to our Chapters.
It is hoped that we may obtain some
add: tional yarn from wool insult
able for government uses. The ex-
pected total, however, will be consid-
erably below the 100000 pounds
used last year.

studying how to use our supply to pro-
duce only garments which are most

reached we will announce our full pro-
gram of knitting.
In addition to this stock of yarn the
Red Cross has ready for distribution
1000 900 sweaters. $4,000 muflers,
3s4, 900 wristlets, 228,000 helmets and
1926 pairs of socks - total OF
1874 900 articles. We are hopeful,
therefore, that these and such addi-
tional garments as we shall be able to
make will enable us to meet the more
urgent requirements of our men the
coming winter.
In this connection it will be Of in
terest to the women who have been
knitting to know that from Septem-
Der l, 1917, to June -, 1918, the Red
Cross distributed $4,000 knitted
garments to the army and navy Of
the United States. During the same
period $4,000 knitted articles were
sent to the Red Cross commissioners
in France and Italy for distribution to
soldiers, sailors and civilians.
"At the request Of the War Indus
tries board with which the Red Cross
works nclose cooperation, we have
urged Chapters and individual work
ers not to buy wool in open market
but to secure their materials through
our department Of supplies" LA

SECRETARY McADOO ON WAR
TAXES

The ways and means committee of
the, lower House Of Congress is now
considering revenue legislation. Sec
rotary McAdoo favors fiat war-pro-
fits tax of so per cent. In telegram
to Chairman Kitchin he says:
1T is my strong conviction that
the taxation Of genuine war profits is
the only way to reach real war profit

a thoroughly justifable measure upon
economic grounds as well as certain

AS another evidence of the interest
of the National administration, and
indicating the desire of President Viii
son and the department of. justice to
have reliable, dependable, loyal man
for governor of North Dakota, per-
mission has been granted Mr. Doyle to
absent himself from his duties as
United States marshal and devote his
entire time and energies to conduct
ing an active campaign for election.
That the loyal citizens of North Da-
kota, regardless of politics are certain
they can elect Mr.. Doyle, is demon
strated by the eagerness and enthus-
iasm with which the opponents of
Townleyism have begun the campaign.
Joint headquarters have been estab-
lished in Fargo by the democrats and
the independent republicans. A har-
mony program has been arranged and
all are intellectually united in their
determination to put Mr.. Doyle over.
The Doyle supporters are not
frightened at the task before them.
They realize the state is, at present,
under the complete domination of
Townley, that he has entire control
of the republican political machinery,
the state patronage, an unlimited
supply of campaign funds, a trained
corps Of speakers and numerous un-
scrupulous workers with a record Of
not hesitating at anything which they
imagine may help their cause
The antiTownley forces readily ad-
nit the great handicaps they face, but
they are inspired with a determine
ton to overcome all obstacles, to
drive out the socialistic, Goddess mis-
fits which have throttled the state, re-
tarded its development for the past
two years and which loom so large
a still greater menace to North d.
kota's future.
Believing in the justice of their
cause and with faith that righteous
ness will prevail, they are confident
of victory in November. - Pioneer

The labor interests of Minnesota
made the greatest mistake of their
lives when they nominated a man for
governor on an prohibition ticket
Inc labor people were not satisfied
with either Gov. Burnauist. the
present governor and who was renom.
mated IN June after one of the most
spectacular political battles in the
state, and they were not satisfied with
the candidacy Of Wheaton, nominated
by the democrats. The non-partisan
league fellows, smarting under the
defeat administered to them in the
June primaries, have been handing
the nomination Of governor around on
platter to many prominent men in
minnesota who have refused the offer
to become the candidate of the league
or the labor organizations who are 20
ing hand in hand to force third can
didate on the ticket in Minnesota. It
Is all right to put up candidate if
they put up the right kind of a plat
form for that candidate to run on. But
in this case labor has gone on record
favoring the veto of any prohibition
measure that might be passed by the
Minnesota legislature and Mr.. Evans,
nominated by organized labor as a
candidate for governor was told he
could have the nomination if he would
pledge himself to veto any prohibition
measure passed by the legislature
The United States government is try-
ing to get national prohibition passed
during the war and it would seem to
US that the action of the Minnesota
dabor leaders at this time is decidedly
unpatriotic and i'll advised under the
circumstances and we are inclined to
think that Mr.. Evans will do a yery
foolish thing if the accepts the nomi-
nation under these conditions. This
is no time to bring personal feelings
to the top on the liquor questionable
it is the time for the whole people to
get behind the government in saving
grains to prosecute the war and in ad-
dition to that should Mr.. Evans accept
the call and be elected he would 20
into the Office with collar around his
neck to start with and be branded as a
man who has been dictated to in order
to gain political office that carries
SO much prestige as that of being gov
ernor of Minnesota. In our humble
judgment the labor forces of Mime
sofa have lost many hundred of votes
by their attitude on the liquor ques-
ton alone

Commander Truman Newberry, of
Michigan, won out in the senatorial
fight for the nomination for United
States senator with several in the
field on the republican ticket, the
principal opponent being Henry Ford,
the man who chartered and paid for
peace ship and tried to hamper the
government in the prosecution of the
war. To make long story short Mr..
Ford was badly beaten in the republi-
can primary by Mr.. Newberry but he
managed to win out the democratic
nomination. Mr.. Ford was pulling on
two strings. We are not much up on
politics in Michigan but if that state
does to Pacifist Ford what other states
have done to those who were against
the governments program, we see
where the maker of tin lizzies is to
get big drubbing at the regular cleo
ton. We are going to place our bet
on Commander Truman Newberry as
the coming senator from Michigan.

Miss jeanette Hankin, the first wo-

the lower house Of congress, and who
got up on her feet and bawled when
her name was called to vote on the

Germany, was candidate for United
senator from Montana in the pri-
maries this week and it looks now as
If she had been defeated. Miss Ran
kin sided in with the l. W. W. trou-

her look good to the non-partisan

Congress has passed an amendment
making this country bone dry during
the period Of the war. This is strictly
all right and we have not heard a
single kick. Those who have been in
the habit Of taking little for 'stheir
stomach's sake" at various times dur
ing the day-and night, are looking at
the matter from a philosophical stand
point as well as from the patriotic
side Of it. The people of this country
adapt themselves to these changes
very readily when the necessity arises
and there is scarcely a ripple on the
surface when these great changes
come about only from the brewers
and saloon keepers who lose an enor-
nous amount of money that they get
from the public for the sale Of these
unnecessary beverages. Now if they
will pass some kind Of an amendment
to regulate the manufacture of lemon
juice or extract which contains about
ninety per cent of alcohol it would be
dryer. Lots of people are using that
for beverage and can get consider
able enthusiasm out of lemon extract.
Seriously speaking by the time the
war is over and our people get used to
this bone dry arrangement, why not
continue the country bone dry. If it
is good thing during the war it is
good thing for all time
