This appointment coming to Judge
Hurry at this time is not only {

AS a district judge in the Seven
teenth judicial district, Judge Hurry
has won the confidence and respect

on him, is the realization of the fac

PLENTYWOOD BOYS
ARE DISAPPOINTED

On seeing all the society boys of
Plentywood depot-bound Thursday
afternoon at train time, Producers
News reporter decided to investigate
the reason. AS the train pulled in we
noticed said boys 'straighten their
ties, brush back unruly locks, shine
their shoes ON their pals pant leg, and
in general spruce up. The boys with
a look OF eager expectation in their
eyes, patiently await the alighting
OF the passengers. People with
Plentywood as their destination had
gotten off the train, and the trainmen
prepared to start on their journey.
The bunch of crest-fallen boys return
to their respective offices and stores.
What a shame! The bunch of beau
tiful Chautauqua girls on the train
were on their way to Scobey not
Plentywood. But cheer up, boys, they
will be here Aug. 22-27.

IOWA EQUITY INDORSES
COOPERATIVE EXCHANGE

The Iowa State Union, American
Society of Equity, through It's state
board of directors on July 8 indorsed
the Equity Cooperative Exchange as
the state unions official livestock sell
ing agency at both South St. Paul
and Chicago, thus giving this farm
ers' organization the most important
Endorsement it has ever received from
any body of men.
The Importance Of this Endorsement
les in the fact that Iowa is the chief
livestock state, and that for year
the local unions of Iowa have been
marketing their livestock through
the Exchange and know its methods
and the results it obtains. Even
the Endorsement of the Equity Co
/ Operative Exchange by the national
union last January, carries with II
II less weight than the Iowa indorse-
ment. because the latter is made up
so largely of experienced livestock
! producers and shippers.
The resolution, which was passed
without opposition reads as follows:
''Whereas, the Equity COOPERATIVE
4 Exchange Of South St. Paul and Chi
cago was formed by the American
Society of Equity, and carries ou'
the principles of that organization
and is therefore, truly cooperative
organization, and
SWhereas, the Iowa State Uniol
of the American Society of Equity !
wholly in accord with the plans lal'
down by the American Society O
Equity and the Equity Co-OperatlV
Exchange, therefore,
"Be it resolved that we recommen
that the Equity COOPERATIVE Ex
change be and hereby is made tn
livestock selling agency on the Sout
+. St. Paul and Chicago markets for tn
Iowa State Union of the America
Society of Equity :,
The Exchange has long been tn
: indorsed agency of the North Dake
| ia state union, A. S. of E., and tn
Montana State Union, and both c
: those organizations have been co-ol
0 Grating with it in the effort to MAJ

SCOTT HEARINGS SPECIAL ARTICLE
FORCE TO THE UTTERMOST

President Wilson accepted the
challenge of Germany and flung it
back in her teeth. "Force, force to
the uttermost,-force without sint Or
imit!' were his words.
The war was an orgy of force. The
peace treaty. is built upon force. The
whole world has just passed through
five year experiment with force,
developed to the high pitch of scien-
tiically organized power and direct
ed to the destruction of life and
wealth. With what results?
"Victory!" cry the militarists.
"Desolation," lament the humani-
tarians.
Paralysis" answer the economists.
Bankers, fnanciers, captains of in
dustry-the shrewdest observers of
economic facts, come back from Eur
ope with the same story. eff | were
to try to put into wards what | sum
up as the most essential thing to
grasp about the situation in Europe,
says Frank Aft Vanderlip, "the two
words would be paralyzed industry.
Mines are flooded; factories are clos.
ed; labor is scattered; markets are
disorganized; credit is shattered
transportation is disrupted; the
whole fabric of industry, by means
of which the people of Europe were
fed, clothed, and provided with tht
necessaries and comforts Of life ha!
been destroyed, not only in the coun
tries that were devastated by battles
but in all of the countries that tool
part in the war. At, the end of fiv'
years of war European industry i
at standStlll.
Force was tried to the uttermos
and now the best brains in the worl'
are trying to undo the damage
many are convinced that it canno
be undone, but that it will wreck tn
capitalistic civilization that relied up
on it for salvation.
Where lies the hope of the worl
today? In force? No! The hope Q
the world lies in the capacity OF tn
Labor Movement to build the struc
ture of a new civilization inside tn
tottering walls of the old one. Labo
has overthrown autocracy in Russ
and bureaucracy in Germany. Ia
bor is striving to redeem England
France and Italy,-striving, throug
, solidarity, to mend the yawnlng gap
and rents that force has made IN tn
texture of civilization.
, Will the Labor Movement succeed
Can it stave off chaos and 3sa'syne'

Time will answer. Meanwhile. L

FOUND IN PETITION

In going over one of the petitions
filed in this county against holding

corder John c. Dwyer found some
thing like rs names that he believes
to be forgeries. The list which came
from near Lanark contained II names
i'm all and after an investigation Mr..
Dwyer declares that he believes there
was only one genuine name in the lot,
that of the man who got up the petit
tion and framed the fOrgeries.
Mr.. Dwyer Immediately sent the
petition to Secretary of State Stew
art, with the information that the 26
names were not genuine according to
The best of his belief. The penalty
for an offense of this kiEa is severe,
the law declaring that person con-
victed of this sort OF a crime may be
fined $500 and sentenced to a term
not to exceed two years IN prisons.

Dear Sirs:
In recent issue of your paper you

If this petition showed evidence oI
forgery why did the Clerk and Re

forgery would he not have started al
