Had the owners Of the spoiled food
been Of the class sometimes referred to
as the common people, no doubt their
names wostld hare been published broad
cast IN the big Twin City dailies. and
they would have received publicity,
and probably derision, at the hands Of
the state commissioner of agriculture
in every possible manner. But the
fact that the owners Of that spoiled
food were profiteers, whose object
was to hold it to keep up the high prices,
exempts them from such unwonted
notoriety.
This is but another instance Of shield
ing the ''higher-ups'' by refusing to
publicly announce the names Of big cor
porations who transgress, our laws for
private gain. And this sad state of
affairs will continue until the common

take greater and more aggressive
interest in politics, and bring about "a

STRIKING THE NEAREST MAN.

Have you ever noticed in yourself or
others disposition to charge response
bility for a grievance up to the man
who stands next to you in a transac-
ton?
This is common trait of practice
with most people, The Importance Of
this practice is especially notable at
this time with the air filled with COM
plants about the high cost of living.
From producer to consumer there is
with most lines Of goods a regulation
char mel through which these articles
pass. If it is can of peas the process
starts with the growers, passes then
through the hands of the Gamer, the
jobber and the retailer and then to the
consumer If it is a silk shirt the raw
silk comes from the producer. to the
silk cloth weaving factory and thence
through he shirtmakers hands to. the
jobber, from whence it goes to the re
taller, from whom it is purchased by
the consumer.
Back Of all these lines of products
stands two other great factors in price
making. One of these is the available,
supply Of any given product. The other,
is the ability or capacity and disposition
of people to- buy and consume. Ninety
per cent of the additional cost of food
products today is due to under produc-
ton. Not 10 per cent of this cost is due
to the retailer Yet we reverse the order
and charge 80 per cent Of responsibility
to the retailer and 10 per cent to the:
real causes.
The man who get more abuse be-
cause of the high cost of things today
than any other is the retailer. This is
true because he is directly on the firing
line. He stands up next to the con-
sumner. He is the man nearest the fell
low with a grievance. And the man
with the grievance feels that he must
land on somebody and naturally he
reaches for the fellow nearest to him.
Next to the retailer stands the jobber.

Shedding The "H1qher- Ups"

of agriculture, recently, thousands OF
pounds of fish and meat, held in cold

consumption. The commissioners an

pounds of beef and pork liver and 4,700
pounds of fish, spoiled by being held
in cold storage for one year or longer,
have been ordered destroyed.

Constitutional Rights Denied.

= .
The action of the New Y ork Assembly
in suspending the five Socialist members
will receive the strongest condemnation
of all fair-minded and liberty loving
Americans. What's to become of our
constitutional rights and our whole
political structure if the chosen repre-
sentatives of the people are being treated
as little school boys who have found dis
favor with their teacher and as punish
ment are sent out from the class room?
We may be able to understand the action
of the congressional lower house which
for the second time last Saturday refused
to seat Congressman-elect Victor L..
Berger OF Milwaukee because it is not
based on his political belief but on the
fact that he was found guilty of dis
loyalty But the suspension Of the
Socialist members of the New York
legislature is contrary to the fundamental
principles Of Our government. 1t is
contrary to the rules of common ethics
in dealing with fellow citizens and it is
worse than the political blunder made
by the German authorities in the early
nineties of the last century. And it
will have the same effect here that it
had among the workingmen of Germany,
who soon swelled the ranks Of the Social
lists by the thousands and ten thousands.
People in a republic do not want to be
ruled by an autocratic power even if
this autocracy finds it's expression in a
party majority.

The next heaviest fire is directed to-
wards him. And so the thing passes on
down the line. The result of this work
ing out Of human nature is to direct
the heaviest fire of the people against
the high cost Of living toward the wrong
end of the line. The truth Of the matter
is that the retailers and jobbers as mid
dlemen and servants Of the producers
and consumers are being unjustly and
numerically ground between the upper
and neither mill stones.
How far will a grocer go in paying
his rent, heat, light and delivery charges
who buys butter at So cents per pound
which he sells for Is cents, and flour
for 1925 per sack which he must deliver
to the consumer at $3.50 and in many
cases charge the account and carry it
on his books? Set down in your memo
randum book this proposition and look
it up. A lot of retailers are just eking
out an existence. Some of them are
actually running behind and if pres
ent conditions continue will be forced
out OF business. The only ones who are
prospecting are those who have good
locations, work like slaves themselves,
handle stuff demanded by the people, do
a tremendous volume of business and
ell for cash only.
The three greatest factors in present
prices are prosperity, extravagant dis
position and habits and restricted pro-
duction. We must to secure satisfac-
tory results direct OR heavy artillery
against extravaganza in buying and I'M
der production.
On this point we quote herewith a
statement taken from a journal devoted
entirely to- commercial business.
The people of the United States
are buying silk manufactures at the
rate Of over $1,OO0,000,00O a. year.
Never in the history of our silk in
dustry have the manufacturers been
compelled to pay as high prices for
raw silk from abroad, yet they have
brought into the country in the year
just ended more raw silk than in
any proceeding year. The value Of
the raw silk imported into the
United States in the calendar year
1919 will, according to an estimate
by the National City bank of New
York, probably exceed $300,OO0,O00,
against $3.50, 900, 900 in 1913. $780,
100000 in the fiscal year 1917 and
$12O,000,O00 in the fiscal year 1917,
the first fiscal year in which it
crossed the $100,000,OO0 line.
These figures, it is proper to add,
relate to sraw silk as reeled from
the cocoons,' and does not include
waste silk which will probably
add about $4,000, 900 to the grand
total The quantity imported even
at the phenomenally high prices, is
,, greater than in any earlier years.
The price Of raw silk imported is
the highest ever" averaging $8.42
per pound in October, as against an
average Of $5s09 per Found in the
fiscal year 1915.
The absurdity of most OF our COM
plants is in evidence in the figures
above quoted. We are consuming more
silk at $8.42 per pound than we did
when the price was $500. In other
words we are compelling the retailer,
who is our servant, to secure for us a
