PRESIDENT LUDWIG MOSR.E K'S
REPORT

Gentlemen. Friends and Delegates
from Minnesota Potato Growers
Marketing Associations, Members
OF the Minnesota Potato Exchange:
1t Is a pleasant privilege have
In calling to order this meeting for
the purpose Of permanent organiza-
tion Of the Minnesota Potato Ex-
change.
You remember II was at the state
Potato Show in Moorhead last fall
the subject for the first time was
brought up for the public by Mr..
Hugh J. Hughes. Director of Mar
kets OF the Department OF Agricul-
ture OF the state Of Minnesota.
I happen to know though. that the
subject had been considered and
discussed perhaps for more than a
year by Mr.. A. ID. Wilson and Mr..
Hughes before that meeting at
Moorhead and to that end Mr.. A.
ID. Wilson OF the Extension Division
had planned and prepared to devote
a large part Of the Agricultural In
stitute Annual to solve the problem
OF marketing farm products.
My part in the preliminary work
up to that time. as far as I remem-
Der consisted in filing complaints as
! heard them repeatedly in my work
for our Farm Bureau in Pine County.
such as: What is the use to teach
the farmers how to grow bigger
crops for which he will get less. the
bigger II is" and: "No one is doing
anything to improve the market con-
ditions." This criticism was cspeci-
ally aimed at the Farm Bureau. the
County Agents and the University
Farm Extension Division. :.
You all remember how commit
tee was appointed in Moorhead to
draft Articles Of Incorporation and
BYLAWS assisted by the Department
OF Agriculture and the Extension Di-
vision. That committee reported at
a meeting in Little Falls. Jan. s7th
last. where temporary organize
tion was formed and a temporary
board Of directors elected to serve
until the first annual or rather per-
manent organisation meeting BE held
today.

change were discussed In an in
formal way. These and other Ques-
tions along the same line will be
settled by and by and the members

thereto. Among these questions
were: How to get cars for shipping!
How will the payment to the locals

WILSON YOKEs LEAGUE TO DONKEY

President Wilson has come down the ladder of idealism very rapidly since the day he set out to make the world safe for democracy" but it was not until his telegram to Chairman Hamak- er of Portland, Ore, that he deliberately step ped off the lowest rung. If that telegram means anything, it means that Democratic Leader Wilson proposes now to make use of the league of nations to keep his party, and his faction with in that party, in office.
 He has completed the journey from the sub lime to something very much more sinister than the ridiculous"
 One would think that our late allies stood with accusing fingers pointed at us charging us with dishonorably desertng them if we dared to accept the Lodge reservations. But what is the fact? They have, with gravity and weight as nearly official as is possible served solemn notice on us that they will accept the treaty gladly with the Lodge reservations attached, far more gladly than they will see it fail of ratification because of them. Lord Grey has said so most explicitly. The French have said so. Where they see a breach of faith is in the inexplicable and stub born refusal of our president to permit ratifica- tion on the only obtainable terms
 Yet now he wants to magnify the Lodge "res- ervations" into repudiation-or is it only into a campaign issue which will bring the Bakers, the Burlesons, the Palmers, his whole official family back into office for four more years 1.-The Phil adelphia Public Ledger.

STILL THEY WONDER WHO THEY ARE!

When Attorney General Palmer gets through with that dastardly fiend who sold couple of sandwiches at big profit in New York, which may take until after the election this fall, it might be well for him to look into the affairs of the following concerns to ascertain whether or not the government should vote them a bonus for what they neglected to gather up from the gen. eral public. This is only short list of one a mile long, showing how they took advantage of the supreme court decision to divide up their profits in stock rather than allow the grasping, greedy government to handle their excess profit funds
 NEW YORK-Stockholde of the Stutz Mo- tor Car company met today and ratified recom- mendation of the directors for an issue of 80,000 additional shares, recently declared as stock dividend.
 CHICAGO.--A fifty per cent stock dividend of 640,000 shares with par value of $6, 6,400, 900 has been authorized by the directors of Libby, ucts. Payment is to be made August IA to stocks holders of record on June 5.
 ST. LOUISA common stock dividend of 33 1-3 per cent today was declared by the May Department Stores company, it was announced there This increases the companys common stock from $15y00O,00o to $2O,0OO, 900: It also was voted to increase the annual rate of dividend on the stock from to per cent.
 ST. LOUIS.-The Brown Shoe company has declared common stock dividend of S3 1-3 per cent, increasing it's common stock from $6,3OO,- 900 to $8,400, 900, it was announced today. This it was sad is the first such dividend declared by the company since it was reorganized in 1913.
 The regular quarterly cash dividend at the annual rate of per cent on the 63, 900 shares of common stock also was declared.
 NEW YORK; stock dividend of B 1-3 per cent was declared today by the Chandler Mo- tor Car company. This dividend is payable June 10 to stock of record June and will result in 70. 900 additional shares being issued.

MIGHT HELP SOME

Next legislature should change the method of selecting the state land commissioner. Now that official is chosen by board of five office holders, the governor, attorney general, state treasurer, state auditor and secretary of state. The power of appointment should rest with the governor. Let the tail go with the hide-Phoenix Messen- ger.
 The Messenger is right in this suggestion, es- pecially in view of the present land office mess, "Too many cooks spells the broth" is an old and true saying. The governor is always held re- sponsible for results in all departments of gov ernment during his administration and he should be clothed with enough authority to enable him to right wrong and encourage efficiency. las International

NEVADA NOMINATES MAHONEY

Speaking of the confirmation of Hunt, the Ely Times says:
 "On the other hand had Hunt remained in Arizona by reason of the senate's turning down the appointment he would have run for governor again this year and that would have made more trouble for his opponents No state official has more bitter foes than he was able to accumulate, and they surely are bitter-enders, pursuing him after all was supposed to be over.
 "The issue in Arizona in reality is unionism versus non-unionism. With Hunt out of the way there is chance for the nomination and election of union man of the best type in the person of w. P Mahoney sheriff of Mohave county, and former state senator."-Ely (Nevada) Times.

Judge R. C. Stanford, of Phoenix, announces that he will be candidate for United States sen- ator and go into combat with Senator Mark Smith for the nomination. It is understood that he has the backing of the radical element of the party. However, this does not hardly mark up with the alleged deal between Hunt and Mark Smith, wherein Smith was to get the Hunt ele- ment in return for Hunts appointment to Siam In any event Mark is going to have the fight of his life to win in the primaries this fall, for the people of the state are tired of foreign represen tation and want some one who actually lives in Arizona to represent them in congress.

It is now claimed by road experts that cinders are no good for road building; they grind up, blow and wash off the roads in few years. Many people who are ignorant of road building knew this some long years ago and it is good news that experts have at last found it out. Then, too, it is sadly remarked that there is no good road ma terial in this section of the country. Of course, there is too much grit in the sand and it might be necessary to go a couple of hundred feet off the road to get rock to crush-then possibly it might not crush straight. However, there are great hopes that some one will in years to come, discover that crushed rock will make good roads and that small samples of it may be secured in this section of the country, if digent search is made for it.

The gentle voice of the price, reducer is now commencing to be heard in the land. It is evi- dent that the action of the people generally in refusing to buy more than is absolutely neces- sary for immediate use, is having it's effect. The old argument of the salesman to "buy now, as prices are going up next week." kept things go- ing for long time until the old g. p. began to realize that his continual buying was part of the reason for the continual raise in prices. It is rather mystifying to those not on the inside, just why silk seems to be one of the main arti- cles that is now being offered at reduced prices of from 10% to 25%. The little old reason for this is because the silk market received big setback by few of the big owners cutting loose all they could dispose of at from 100% to 150% reduction in the wholesale price. Of course, this reduction will take sometime to reach the con- Sumer

Whatever may be the decision of the state land board in the investigation of Commissioner Moeur, the board will discover that the people generally speaking, with no political ax to grind, are very much in favor of change. Moeur may be "good" democrat. but it strikes many of the finance campaign for him for governor on the democratic ticket. It may be, of course, that they are so broad-minded that they feel positive he would give the big stockmen a fair deal if elected.

THOSE PERMANENT TAX EATERS

Arizona office holders are not under civil ser- vice. Two terms in office is enough. A man who cannot make a living outside of office holding is not competent or entitled to be elected to any po- sition.
