And labor is now getting the same
kind of medicine. The antitrust
laws and our courts are being used
to exhaust their treasures. There
was the Danbury Hatters' case, for
instance, which took not only the

as great wrong later by congress.
Now the John Deere Plow company
Of Moline, Ill. (part of the harvester

Indictment of the cooperative milk
producers in the vicinity Of Cleveland
is another illustration Of the use Of
the Sherman antitrust law to fight
the people rather than the trusts, and
another evidence that cooperation is
not protected in the United States.
The Chicago milk producers and the
Twin Cities milk producers are like

These indictments and others like
them have two real purposes: The
politicians want to keep labor from
joining with the farmers by holding
the farmer up as profteer and they
want to discourage if not crush farm
er cooperation through the heavy
expense Of defending these suits. And
Ihe suits are carried on by the state
with taxes raised in large part from
the farmers.

The front page article appearing
in the Dooley Sun last week tells
chow long tale is winding into the
theme of the song" of Editor Vezina.
How truthful the rambling '.ssertions
of that gentleman is can be deter"
mined by reading over the different
articles appearing in both the Pro-
ducers News and the Dooley Sun.
Last winter when the Pioneer Press
came out with tale about the Pro-
ducers News having sold out to
certain banker and the county COM
missioners, the Dooley editor fell for
the same, with glee, and commenced,
in his insinuating and cowardly way,
10 make subtle attacks upon the farm
rs paper and it's editor. This con-
t:nued for several weeks and was ig-
.lored by this paper. Finally we
cid something that must have touch
ed a guilty conscience judging from
the reaction which it produced. Later
this summer, when the article in con-
trovcrsy appeared in the Scobey Sen
tinel, the paper edited by Green Ink
Rodger Burke; who was handling at
the court house when Mrs. O'Grady
was counted out Of Office by the al
tering Of the election returns, alleg-
ing that the Nonpartisan League had
korked against the Fort Peck relief
project, acting under instructions
from the editor Of this paper, which
statement was and is absolutely
false, and was known to be false by
Burke, and as far as that is con-
cclned, known by Mr.. Vezina TO be
false, but yet at the same time, it was
reproduced in the Dooley Sun, in "a
manner calculated to do the harm and
spread the poison which the above
Mr.. Vezina is to cowardly to do direct

usually be determined by the volume

reau to discuss the relief bond propo-
Sition and every farmer should be
present, especially those who need
aid.
The County Commissioners refuse
to call an election without petitions
from the taxpayers, and this is as it
should be.
Many of the farmers have not got
ten their seed back this year, and
many of those who have, will be
forced to sell what seed they have for
the bare necessities of life before
spring if they stay, and then will
face the fact that without credit they
cannot repurchase the seed when seed
ing time is here, and if they can at
the last moment secure the credit,
they will find that they will have to
pay four or five dollars a bushel for
seed which they will sell this fall and
during the winter at from 50 to $3.50
2cr bushel.
And if any amount of the grain IN
this county is shipped out, it will have
to be returned at greatly advanced
prices, besides freight and handling
costs to the terminals and back again.

Wnat a foolish, hell-made bargain
it is! The spoil taken from the
workers by the profteers and vast
ers prevents them from buying the
farmers products as they would like
to. The profteers can ship their
plunder out of the country as fast as
they get it; so what do they care
whether they ruin Switzerland or not?
It is possible only because the farm
ers there are not organized and are
prey to the diabolical lying Of the
profteers.

In commenting on the report that
government money was used to buy
diamonds and other jewels for spon-
sors Of ships at the Seattle yards,
the Pioneer Press of St. Paul makes
a confession which reveals the soul
Of the controlled press, though it may
not do it any good, as the old proverb
declares.
"A year ago." says the Press, -"any
ono making such charges would have
been branded as pro-German and ig-
ncred, if not actually punished. Our
attitude toward criticism of any kind
was such that the scoundrels who
managed to obtain responsible jobs
were protected in their treasury loot
ing"
Quite right except for the use of
the word "our," which implies Ameri-
cans in general. Not the people but
officials at Washington and state cap
itols, with their vioiously interpreted
espionage acts, and the controlled
press made this protection for scound-
rels-not merely in looting the treas
ury but in robbing the whole people.
Not man who dared speak in the
public interest remained unbranded.
Nonpartisan league leaders were
branded because they fought against
profiteenng with real punch. And
the Pioneer Press was foremost in
branding such honest men to protect
those seizing the war opportunities
for deviltry. We might also remark
that if the people are to be saved from
he results Of this deviltry, they must
look to the men who wrongly wore
>e mark of "traitor" for a season
rather than to those who protected
the real traitors.

The professcd inability of special

We Face 4 Crisis---
We Should Act

Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid Of the country.
1t is not the policy Of the Producers
News to advocate going into debt.
Yet, at this time, Sheridan county
is face to face with a crisis:
That crisis is here and the county

future OF the country is to be protect
cd,
Owing to the drouth, and the fail
ure Of the crops, many farmers
good deserving farmers, find them
selves in a position where financial
aid must be extended or assured at
once, or they must leave this coun-
try.
Again, the trains may not be run:
ming next spring.
This is a startling statement
this counry is now plunging headlong
into revolution and chaos.
No one knows what tomorrow will
bring.
We must act and act now.
The county should take advantage
OF the Belden Act: the county should
bond for the last possible dime, and
under the management of the Farm
Dureau, cv.:;' bushel Of seed grain
offered should be purchased by the
county ard hid and resold at cost
prices to those needing seed.

Every farmer that leaves this coun-

Tender Mercies Of the Wicked

Secretary of War Baker has or
dered the sale of Nitro, w. Va, q
city of 10000 people, with its houses,
warehouses and great manufacturing
plants hitherto used by the govern
ment to produce nitrate and sulphur
ic acid. The whole works are to be
knocked down to the highest bidder.
Baker thus gives away two great
principles. This plant was to be used
in time of peace to produce nitrate
1T cost for the farmers. The nitrate
trust is allowed to take this trick
Right-minded people everywhere
hoped that the manufacture Of war
munitions would pass from private
hands to public ownership and thus a
great vested interest in war would
be removed. The first draft of the
league of nations contained plank
looking to this end. The munitions
trust has taken this trick with dir
ty little two-spot Of political influence
and support previous to 1920.
Truly, Baker, the man who en-
deavored to take up the mantle left
him by Tom johnson in the fight for
the people, is a lath painted to look
like iron. Both old parties are full
of this wood and in the present crisis
are giving away the game like drunk
en- SAILORS.
How can millers, manufacturers,
jobbers, ETC., quote lower prices for
export unless they have trade agree
nents and other means of virtual con-
troll over prices? In almost every
line Of goods the foreigner can Sc
cure prices here below what our peo-
pie pay. The business world, of
course. denies the practice for the
sake of public appearances.

Zone miller points out that millers
must now be careful Of the prices
they quote the grain corporation, as
ii it is low, this flour may be offered
to their own domestic trade at low
figure In other words, the action
Of the grain corporation in reselline
in domestic markets puts it in the
same position as any other domestic
: buyer, and it should be quoted ac-
cordingly."
What splendid Amcricanism it is
to quote foreigners the low price and
to quote US "accordingly!"
What sordid mess the congress
sional committee investigating air
craft production has brought to
light! John D. Ryan was appointed
director Of aircraft production at a
dollar a year. Spruce was needed
for the wings. The planes We're need
ed with the utmost dispatch. Some
of the best spruce for the purpose
was up in the Olympic peninsula, in
the state of Washington.
Here is what Ryan did, according
to the congressional committee. He
changed plans approved by the secre-
tary Of war for 15-nile logging road
and held up production of spruce
while he built a 56-mile standard
gauge railroad at an expense of $4,-
C00,000. The committee declares the
cline was built not to carry spruce
logs but as an extension of the Mil
railroad for commercial pur-
poses and as shortcut to Grays
I1arbor."
After the war the Milwaukee read,
in which Ryan is prominent, could
bid this branch in for fraction of
value, for it would be Of no value
to no one else.
we never did get any bombing or
battle planes built for the front and
thousands Of Americans lost their
lives through lack of aeroplane pro-
lection.
Now will some of our super-patri-
Dts go to Ryan's palace in a mob and
give him the tar-and-feather cure for
}ispolayt yg cisc dche CD shrlul BIZ
Or will they apologize
% labor, which was unjustly accused
Turing the war Of delaying spruce
production? Not at all. Ryan was
md still is loyal to the principle they
lre-the principle of Unsuitable greed.
Only enc argument has yet ap-
'cared against providing a bonus for
soldiers to help them back to civil
ife: We can't repay them in full
or their sacrifice; so we must not
i've them a cent. Here is the way
he Wall Street Journal puts it, with
characteristic slap at North Da-
;ota which is great praise:
Loyalty is Z quality yet to be re-
