dates were arranged according
ly. But owing to the deep snow,
the Avondale meeting had to be
cancelled in Valley county, and
the speakers came to Sheridan
county by rail, going to Scobey
where a late meeting was held.
1t was impossible to get to Flax
vile to fill that date. A car
could not be procured, nor
could q team be secured until
late and a start was made, but
owing to a slow team, the bad
conditions of the road and the
zero temperature, the team
turned back about three miles
out Of Scobey and the FIaxville
meeting was cancelled. The
Outlook date and the Plenty
wood date was filled Sunday,
but the Dooley meeting was
cancelled as either Dooley or
Medicine Lake date had to be
cancelled, and the Medicine Lake
date was made as was the date
at Fro;d. The Culbertson date
Tuesday evening was cancelled
as the weather was so cold the
speakers did not want to stand
the exposure. All the rest OF
the meetings were held.
In more and more Of the
towns and villages, the business
men are turning out to hear the
league speakers, which fact is
encouraging. It is becoming
evident that the small nerch-
ants are becoming tired of be-
ing made the 'fall guy for big
business and are coming to un-
delstand that the interest of the
small business man and the
farmer or labore.' are common.

FARMERS EXPOSE
BIG SHIP GRAFT
Corporation Men on Shipping
Board All0cated Half of Gov
ernment Ships.

The Farmers National Coun-
Gil with headquarters in the
Bliss Building, Washington, D.
c., has just issued a statement
through it's Farmers National
Committee on Transportation,
showing that close to half of
the total number of ships allo-
Gated by the United States
Shipping Board and over two
fifths of the total deadweight
tonnage have gone to steamship
and shipping companies which
had representatives in the
United States Shipping Board.
The statement says: The Amer
ican people will be surprised to
learn that thi1ty-eight shipping
companies received from the
United States Shipping Board
through ALLEGATION over two
fifths Of the total deadweight
tonnage. A total of 1886 ships
exclusive Of tugs, etc., were allo-
Gated with deadweight tonnage
Of 9,731,00 tons.
Out of this total the steam
ship and shipping companies
fortunate enough to have repre-
sentatives on the Shipping
Board, received 687 ships with
4.19O,7O9 deadweight tonnage.
The shipping Act provides that
mo Commissioner (of the u. S.
Shipping Board) shall be in the
employ Of or hold official rela-
tion to any common carrier by
water or other person subject to
this Act OF own any stocks or
bonds thereof OF be pecuniarily

Board should be connected with

OUTLOOK IS
VERY OPTIMISTIC

The Farmer-Labor m a S S
meetings which were held in
Sheridan, Roosevelt and Rich
land counties this week have
been very successful, every
thing considered, and the cam
paign of the Farmer-Labor or
ganization for the capture of
the political power Of the state

fully launched in the north half
of the state.
3. K. Wheeler, formerly
United States District Attorney
for the State of Montana, and
Alfred Budden, President of the
Trades & Labor Council of
Cascade County, were the
speakers. Owing to the unfav-
orable weather, it was very diff
ficult to hold the meetings at all,
and it was a hardship for the
speakers to make the dates, al
though they did the very best
they could at all times.
Considering the condition of
the weather, the meetings 1T
all points were very satisfac-
tory.
When the dates for these
meetings were made up, it Was
anticipated that autoes would

COAL MINERS OF NA-
Tl0N STILL IDLE

Washington-Reports on the
return to work of striking min
ers were anxiously awaited by
officials here today while Secre-
tary of Labor Wilson went
ahead with his plans for the
mediation conf fereflce of miners
and operators, called for Friday
(today).
Although, on the surface,
the government believes the
men will resume work as soon
as revocation of the strike call
is thoroughly circulated, there
were many who privately ex-
pressed the belief that thous-
ands will be likely to remain
out, as the strike call was re-
voked under orders from the
federal court, and under pro-
test.
Meanwhile the miners for the
most part were still idle and the
fuel shortage was beginning to
be felt in many parts of the
country.
Indiana Miners Out
Tere Haute, Ind.-Coal min
ers of southern Indiana did not

STATE MILL CUTS
PRICE OF PRODUCTS
Bran and Shorts Are Cheaper
While Bigger Price Is Paid
for Wheat.

The State flour mill at Drake,
N. D., has taken steps to dis
tribute among the people some
of the profits it has demonstrate
ed it can make. Bran and
shorts have been reduced to a
price level by the state plant
substantially below the trust
made prices. These products
are being sold by the state mill
as follows: bran per 100 pounds,
$1.75 for carload lots and $1.80
in less than carload lots; shorts
per 100 pounds, $2.10 for car
load lots and $2.15 for less than
carload lots. The Minneapolis
price for these products is $1.95
per hundred weight for bran
and $3.50 per hundred weight
for shorts in carload lots.
Trust Starts Underselling
Trust mills have offered to
lay flour down in the territory
where Drake -four is selling for
81 per barrel less than any price
the state puts on the flour, ac-
cording to Manager J. A. Nc
Govern of the State Mill and
Elevator association. Mr.. Nc
Govern explains that the price
of the state flour would be
based upon the price paid for
wheat plus a reasonable profit
regardless of what the milling
combine charges for -four in it's
effort to crush the state enter
prise.
On top of the substantial low
erinG of the price of bran and
shorts to the farmers, the state
mill is paying more for wheat
than the milling combine. A

ing of hostilities in order to
preserve our very existence"
declared the Esthonian prime
minister, Premier Starndmann.
I'VE cannot longer continue the
fight because of our financial
and economic conditions. Our
military supplies are exhausted,
England having ceased sending
us any. Esthonia and the 9TH

to continue fighting"
