CANADIANS
HEAD OFF
SPECTATORS

The practice of livestock speculat-
ors in going to the Canadian markets.
and particularly the big farmer con-
trolled livestock market near Winni-
peg, and buying Canadian cattle there
for shipment and resale at higher
prices in the States, has been nipped
IN the bud by the action of the Cana
dian United Grain Growers, limited.
which has made the Equity Coop
erative Exchange it's livestock selling
agency in the United States.
Heretofore spectators have made
comfortable profits by purchasing
these cattle at lower prices in Cana
ola than the same cattle were bring
ing on the U. S. side of the line, and
shipping them to South st. Paul and
Chicago, where the entire advanced
price was reaped by the spectators.
Under the new arrangement, the Can
adam livestock growers will them
selves reap this entire advanced
price, for the cattle will remain their
own until disposed of in Chicago and
South ST. Paul through the EQUITY
Exchange. Commits

markets and the benefit. of the higher

The issue between the publishers OF
The Star and the men who threaten
to crush the paper, if it becomes in
the slightest degree a defender OF
Nonpartisan farmers, is as fundament-
al as democracy itself. 1t is not a
question of the merit or demerit of
the Nonpartisan League. It is far
more fundamental question. 1t is a
question whether the editor and pub
fishers of The Star shall be permitted
to discuss big, living issues in their
own way or whether they must first
consult William A Clark, the Ana.
conda Copper Company, the Merch-
ants (NationaD Bank of Billings and
its affiliated groups of interests:

space to any dignified discussion of
the matter, but we cannot accept
questioning the conclusions
of those who stand ready like The
Butte Miner, the personal organ of
Senator Clark, to brand the thirty
thousand farmers who belong to the1
League either as fools or sdisloyal-
lists.
Already the people of Montana
owe a heavy debt of gratitude to the
League for it's courage
Gus efforts to save the primary law.
The un-American Butte Miner tells
the truth in spite of itself when it
keeps on declaring that, if the meas,
lre submitted by the last legislature
for the repeal of the primary law is
defeated, it will be due to the Non
partisan League. Is it any wonder
that the people of Montana are be-
ginning to trample under foot the
Miners charges of disloyalty against
he League? For if the League is
iisloyal because of it's efforts to save
he primary law, good people are
'eady to cry out, give us more disloy-

1t is interesting to observe that
many manufacturers think that prices

buy somehow costs twice as much as
