THE
R M

In Russia the overwhelming major
ity of people are farmers, and only &
of the so provinces have any consid-
cradle population engaged in non-ru-
raj industries. Lenine and Trotzky
when they seized control knew that II
they were to retain their control and
pass it on to others capable of think
ing along similar lines, it would be
necessary for them to work out a sys-
tenn by which the craftsmen and the
men in the army and navy would have
an unfair and undue share in the rep
resentation in the legislative bodies
Accordingly we find the constitu-
ton solemnly declaring that one men,
Der to the all-Russian congress of Sow
lets, if he shall represent city people,
shall be elected for every $4,000 vot-
ers, and if he shall represent provin-
cial people-the farmers-one member
shall represent $4,000 g inhabitants
The constitution uses the word "vot-
er" as applied to the city dweller, but
"inhabitant" as applied to the coun-
try. The reason is plain. The farm
err must be disenfranchised.

OLD DOBBIN STILL ON JOR.

Ter years ago automobile men were
predicting the disappearance of the
horse from cur cities. The ten years
have passed, and, in spite of the auto
truck, the demand for the horse con-
tinues. This is what w. J. Suor, su-
perintendent of Wilson & Company,
the Chicago packers, says:
"It costs Wilson & Co. approximate
ly twice as much per ton to make de-
liveries in the Chicago territory with
trucks as with horse-drawn wagons.
I have no axes to grind. I am inter-
ested in two things only: keeping down
the costs, and securing the utmost eff
ficiency in deliveries. Figures taken
from the books of Wilson & Co. show
that it cost US in the month of March
25 cents per cwt. to deliver our prod
ucts by use of two-ton trucks, 1873
cents per cwt. by use of one-horse
wagons, 10 cents per cwt. by use of
two-horse wagons, and So cents by use
of four-horse wagons"

WE EARNED ONCE.

Years ago we worked on a farm.
We experienced every joy of early to
bed and early to rise. Also we ex-
%perienced every pain.
We know what a hay mine is and
we know how to hitch up a pitch
fork. And we worked or the business
end of that same pitchfork until we
acquired the regular habit of hav'
ing our callouses manicured by the
horseshoer at the crossroads every
Saturday night.
Our dad was an employer of labor
and union hours were nothing in his
young life. Any man who couldn't
work from sunrise to sunuE

a lockout. He didn't have to bother
about striking for shorter hours. HI

GOOD PLACE TO START.

The reprinting of a recent senator
ial speech as a public document and
its broadcast distribution by the mil
lions required 48 tons of paper. And
they want the country newspapers of
the nation to cut down their print
consumption ten per cent during the
crisis.
We can't refrain from indulging in
the little wish that all that 48 tons
were down in our basement right now
We had thought some Of making a
protest to congress but upon second
thought we decided to keep it dark.
A congressional investigation on this
promiscuous waste of the 48 tons of
paper would mean thousands of tons
more of perfectly good paper to re-
print findings, data and speeches OF
the committee appointed to investi-
gate.
No! 1t would be a grave mistake,
We're not saying a thing about it,
This is just between you and US.

tween the league and the legion, and
there is no such fight, SO far as the
league is concerned"
Last fall the editor of the News
took occasion, at least two different
times to put the legion in a bad light.
Without directly accusing the legion
of violence in the Centralia affair,
the tone of his article carried the i'm
preston that the legion was to blame
and started the ruction with the l.
W. WIS.
A sudden change of attitude week
before last brought forth the concil-
iatory article mentioned above, intend
ed to salve some of the wounds aus
ed by his attitude last fall.
Now a complete change of belief
and doctrine is forced upon him by
the sudden and unwarranted condem-
nation of the legion by the Coopera-
tors Congress at Great Falls last
week, at which resolutions were drawn
up condemning the legion as undem-
ocratic and aristocratic and recon-
mending to the good will Of the Mon
tana Federation of Labor, the organ
ization known as the World War Vet
Grams.
Is Rhodes in the, inner circle or does
he play a lone hand? Will he be child
ed for his mistake of week before
last? And what will his attitude to-
ward the legion be now that the pow
ers that be have voted against the
legion?
Rhodes is in a peculiar position and
some weeks will necessarily have to
elapse before he can again tear into
the soldiers. Sooner or later he will
do it. The mandate is issued. And
Rhodes must obey.
Certainly, it's embarrassing!

A PUNK PROFIT.

o The Valley County News of Feb
ruary goth declares that the nonpar-
tisan league is not against the Amer
lean legion. Among other things the
editor says:
"The impression seems to exist in
some quarters that the ~nonpartisan
league publications and papers favor
able to the farmers organization, are
opposed to or in some way are fight
ing the American Legion. The facts
are that the nonpartisan league has
neither endorsed nor condemned any
soldiers organization. The nonpar-
tisan league believes in the right of
soldiers, as well as all other interests,
to organize"
The article winds up with the fol
lowing enlightening paragraph:

why there should be any fight be-
