McKAIG is LOSER
IN LIBEL SUIT

Boise, Idaho, Nov. 18.-The Nom
league, through Ray McKaig, it's rec
ognized Idaho leader, received a &C.
we're set back as a result of the ver-
dict returned by jury in the district
court for the defendants in the $780,
600 libel suit instituted by McRaIg
against Frank Il. Gooding, ex-Gov.
ernor, and the Statesman Printing
company.
The jury stood 10 to 2. 1t went
out with the case Monday evening,
deliberated all night and returned at
$3.50 this morning. The suit was the
result of charges by Gooding in the
campaign he made last year for Unit
ed States senator, wherein he held
that the league leaders sent to Idaho
were disloyal. McKaig was the GEN.
ter OF the attack. Later McKaig fill
ed suit, alleging that his name and
character had been damaged to the
extent of $4,000.
During the trial Gooding linked
McKaig with the Socialist, Kate o.
Hare, who was sentenced in North
Dakota to a term In the federal pris-
on for disloyalty while the country
was at war. He introduced evidence
to show that McKaig was on the
most friendly terms with the woman
and publicly expressed his sympathy
for her while she was being tried.
1t was brought out that McKaie
had said to solicitors of the league
that he considered the Red Cross
graft and that he as well as Other
leaders. knew that Socialists and /
W. w. we're being employed by the
league.
A. c. Townley. national head Of ths
league. was convicted for disloyaIty
in Minnesota, fact that was brought
out during the trial.

The Achievement Day program for
the club boys and girls was given be-
fore a large and enthusiastic audi
ence in the Paris Second ward meet
ing house Wednesday evening, No
vember IL. Although the roads did
not permit many to come from be-
yond Bloomington in the one direc-
tion and Lanark in the other, every
seat was taken, and many children
lined up around the walls. The pro-
gram was varied, and with the ex-
ception of excellent talks by Joseph
Stucki, treasurer of the farm bureau
and Commissioner Silas L. Wright,
the entire program was given by the
children. Some of the out of town
numbers had to be substituted with
local numbers, as the children could
not get in. The numbers were so
delightful however, that few in the
audience knew they had been chan
ged.
Owing to delay in shipping from
the factory, the club pins were not
received in time for distribution at
the exercises but will be sent by
mail. Names of all those entitled to
the pins were read during the pre-
sentation of awards. The premiums
won at the county exhibit were pre-

was unusually charming.

PAPER BARoNs THREATEN
IIlFE or PUBLISHERS


New York. Nov. 1.-THE price OF
print paper In soaring skyward. with
the limit nowhere In sight, and every
newspaper publisher forced by cir
cnmstancea TO bid for every pound OF
print paper that can be ancnrad---~<
There In undoubtedly a shortage
In production In proportion 10 the de-
mand, but II ia charged that tho
manufacturers have taken advantage
Of the situation to boost the prices
just as high as the publIsern will
pay. and regardless Of what price IL
necessary to provide for n reasonable
or even liberal profit.
without any evidence OF reason
pulp prices went from $4,000 TO
$4,000 ton at one jump. and print
paper went up proportlonally and
then some. But paper did not stop
with that jump. New record prices
are being made every day and almost
every hour. and tho manufacturers
and brokers are reaping tremendous
profits. The paper jobbers are help
less In the face OF conditions. and the
great majority of them are actually
selling print at a loss. Tho Jobbors
are accepting such orders as are ne
cessary to keep regular customers
supplied, and whan they attempt to
get the paper with which to fill
these orders they find the manufac-
turers' price out OF all proportion 10
the price at which they have sold
teir customer. In fact. the situation
has become so serious that Jobbers
are afraid 10 accept orders. and II IL
rumored that number OF them may
withdraw from the print paper mar
ket entirely.
Il IL openly charged here that the
manufacturers and brokers are oper-
atIng together: that the mills are
selling almost exclusively through
the brokers. and that the brokers are
merely the Representatives Of this
mill owners. In this way the tremsn-
dous profits that are being made are
not reflected on tho books Of the
mills. even though they find their
way into the pockets Of tbs mill
owners.
The paper broker must not In
any way be confused With paper Job
