GANG REPUBLICANS
THOROUGHLY SCARED
TO CALLlC0NvENTION
Delegates will be summoned from
all parts Of State in an effort to
formulate plans to defeat N. p.
League and Labor.

It has just leaked out that thor
oughly frightened by the indigna-
tion exhibited by the people Of
Montana since the special session.
and real fzing that the tax scan-
dal as result of the action of the
State Board of Equalization will
cause another uproar, the Old
Gang Republicans very shortly
will issue call for q delegate
convention.
An effort will be made at this
convention to iron out all differ
ences within the party ranks, and
rec0mmen nd candidates to be sup
ported by the republicans at the
next State primaries, including
full list of state officers and
congress- men.
This is the first step to stem
the flood of Nonpartisan League
sentiment in the state, and an ef-
fort will be made to pacify organ
lied labor by some more pre-
election promises which will new
er be Ike pit.
They do not want to run the
risk of having the gang vote split
by several candidates because
they kno W the League and Labor
will vote solid.
It is predicted that the Gang
Democrats will take similar &C.
ti0n.
Somehow the Old Gangsters in
both parties seem badly worried,
while the League farmer and Or
ganized Labor is playing bail all
the time preparing to upset what
ever plan the special interest
tools may lay. =

answered with scorn and their thous.
ands of signatures tossed into the
waste paper basket.
The answer to this is the conquest
by the people Of every state and local
office within the gift Of the voters of
Montana, house cleaning so COM
plete, so thorough, and so salutary
that the last lackey Of the copper in
terests will find himself cultivating
the employment agencies or living on
what ne managed to save out of the
rout. That is the only answer worth
while, the only one they will heed
ana the Nonpartisan League together
with the Labor forces will present
that answer as reply to the ultima
tum OF the drought Legislature which
was SO insultingly delivered last
month, at the general election in 1920,
Now that means WORK, hard work
and lots OF It Wa have -nuE lines to
mend-all loose ends left by the
drought situation to weave up. The
absent voters law must be used for
the occasion, get together on this
matter, organize your precinct, go
over it and see who is missing and
who will be back, remember the old
gang have practically driven the far
mers away because they think it
means security, for another term for
themselves. All these things we have
to look to, get your precinct in hand,
visit each other, mark the absent ones
and register those who remain in and
are not registered, get ready for ac-
ton.

coming 10 judgment
Do you mean to say that you loyal
people do not know what democracy
is or what it means? am sure very
sorry for you poor devils, indeed
am. For you are coming to judg-
ment and l am thankful to see it.
That is one thing am going to stay
in Montana for, just to help put such
people as you fellows where you be-
long.
Ii you want to be fair, just leave
everything to the vote of the people
and let the people rule and you will
not have any Loyalty league. We
will do the loyalty stunt, don't you
worry about the loyal part of it. You
would nave us think profitecring in
substitutes was an act of loyalty. No,
that is what hurts.
Wants Truth Told
Who had the power to stop it? DID
the people have the power? Look
in the glass and answer that! You
did not stop it, of course, but why
don't you loyal people say something
about it now instead of trying to
keep the truth from people? Just
tell the straight truth about the laws
and explain them as they are, not as
you hope they Will be.
II the laws in North Dakota were
as rotten as you would make people
think. who would be the first ones
to take advantage of them? THE
POOR WORKING CLASS? No,
don't think so. If they were crook
ed enough. probably you would not
lave such holler about them.
Some Honest Men Fooled
There is no doubt but there are
several good. honest farmers that be-
long to your Loyalty League, as you
call it. but we all have been fooled
for life time and you still can fool
lots OF people yet, but. thanks to
heaven. you cannot fool the majority
of us any longer. and we will show
you so in good old 1920, ha! ha! A

APPRE HENSON OF
MONEY SCARCITY
PROVES UNTRUE
Banks Call Loan Tuesday and.
Collateral Jumps to Eleven.
Per Cent New Figure for the.
Year.


New York, June S.-Apprehension
regarding the money situation in re-
spect to possible scarcity of funds
for speculative purposes was discern
IDLE constantly in the financial district
this week
Professional traders favoring
continuation of the rise in share
prices that has been IN progress in
recent months were disconnected
Tuesday when banks called loans and
the rate of collateral jumped to IL
per cent. q new high figure for the
year, and a sharp break occurred dur
ing which some stocks sold off from
ten to seventeen points in a 1000, 000-
share day.
The liquidation gave rise to con-
lectures as to whether it was en-
forced or natural. On the one hand
opinion was expressed that money
loaning banks had raised the rate on
the promise that the speculation had
become excessive and unhealthy, and
there were reports that the so-called
money committee would be establish
ed again with a view to controlling
the situation. on the other hand il
was pointed out that Victory loan and
income tax payments were consuming
the money ordinarily available for
stock market purposes
There was no confirmation of the
money committee report and the loan
rate returned to the figure that han
been normal. 6 per cent, and by the
close of the week the losses of Tues
day had been more than recovered
with prices showing a general up
ward trend.
The general industrial and news
situations impelled optimism-im-
proved trade conditions. large buying
orders for steel, resumption of gold
imports from Canada. expansion Of
the gross earnings of many railroads,
prospective extra and increased divi-
bends, better copper price outlook,
good crops except cotton. and indi-
cations of an early peace treaty sig
nature with the resultant broadening
of American trade.
