gressmen that the standard has not
been lowered and they pointed out
that since the advent of the. primary,
congress has passed such measures
as the federal reserve act, the parcel
post act and rural credits law.
Here are some of the typical ex-
pressions:
Representative Baer, North Dakota:
"The reactionary politician cannot
control the primary elections, and
therefore he wants to get back to the
old boss-ridden convention system
Representative Knutson. of Mime
sofa, new republican whip: THE pri.
mary system is preferable to the old
convention plan because it gives the
average voter a larger voice in the
affairs of his party"
Representative Gard Ohio: I'VE
have had the. primary system in Ohio
for many years, and I certainly hope
we shall keep it."
Those close to the president say
that, he also favors the primary sys-
tenn of nominations.

COMPLAINTS
Not Nearly So Many People Go to
the BOARD Of Equalization as in
Previous Years to Get
Taxes Lowered.

The number Of DIRECTORS to the as
sessment OF their real estate in keo-
kuk is much less this year than IN
previous years.
John r. Dimond, veteran assessor
Of Keokuk property, the man most
maligned part of the year and i'm
possible to defeat at the polls in the
old days on another day of the year,
says he never saw SO few as this year.
One afternoon nobody appeared be-
fore the board inthe city hall to make
complaint of too high assessment.
Most of the objections Is on a re-
assessment of property at the Old tg-
IRE when it happened to be bought
at a cheap bargain price lately.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Railroad

administration under its general order
increasing transportation charges 20
,,ercent were attacked today before
the interstate commerce commission
by eleven smelling and mining COM
Eanies
The complaint makes Director Gen
eral Hines and about eighty railway
lines defendants.
1t is alleged by the smelling and
mining companies that rates initiated
bv the railroad administration, while
claimed to be only 25 per cent. ad-
vance, ranked upward to ITO per cent.
increase on many copper and mineral
rates. Specific complaints are made
by the smelling interests that rates
from Mexican ports of entry to var
ious destinations in this country were
l.nduly prejudicial. They claim also
that the rates from mining and smelt-
Jig points were discriminatory and
that attempts to readjust these rates
through the railroad administration
have awaited nothing.
The mining and smelling companies
explain their cost of production has
increased ON an average of about 70
yer cent over the pre-war production
costs. They point out also that the
government has fixed the prices at
which they must sell their minerals
and that this price did not take into
consideration the increase in produc-
ton cost. The interests which filed
the complaints include:
American Smelling company, Amer
lea Smelter Securities company, U. S,
Zinc company, Garfield Smelling com
pany, Baltimore Copper, Smelling and

A Definition Of eeIsheyisrn.

Lincoln Journal: For American pur-
poses, the new attorney general sets
good definition of the belshevism
which he proposes to stamp upon.
Whatever proposes to change the gov
eminent by other than constitutional
process is bolshevism. One may pro-
pl ose to preach and print any change
which he pleases, however radical, and
If he proposes to act by changing the
constitution and laws, he is within
lis rights as an American, and Is no
bolshevik. If he proposes to set up a
new government, as one of soviets,
without first changing the old one law
fully, he is a bolshevil1 and Mr.. Pal
rner will be after him as a sedftionist.
Americans will help in keeping Amer
lea on even keel If they stick to this
distinction In making use OF the
eDithet.

Results Of Their Red Cross Drive Ex-
coed Those of Their Elders, and
They Were Not Given
MucT Support.
TWO TONS OF CLOTHING
That Much Was Collected for Refu.
gees of War Zone, in Southern
Lee County Through Jun
Tor Red crosS.

The final reports are In on the last
drive for old clothes for refugees in
the war zone made by the Red Cross
here.
1t was really made by the boys and
girls of the Junior Red Cross, to
whom the whole thing was turned
over by their elders.
The city Of Keokuk, and the towns
Of Charleston, Donnellson and Mt.
Hamill participated in the campaign
and reported.
OF clothing, eighty bags, weighing
1917 pounds was collected. and there
were 1924 different pieces of cloth
ing.
Twelve bags Of shoes, filled with
451 pairs, weighing SIS pounds were
collected by the youngsters who
made the canvass.
School Children Win Praise.
This time, the total amount col
lected was 4432 pounds and the last
time a similar collection was made,
the quantity was about $500 pounds
1t might be assumed that all the
old clothes in southern Lee county
had been gathered up long ago in the
three drives for them made by the
Red Cross; but the school children
went out this time and gathered up
more than the last time.
The Red Cross workers are loud
in their praise of the young people
who made this last drive practically
by themselves. They were not given
even the support of the newspaper
campaign that their elders always in
sist upon in war aid drives.
