THEY DIFFER

The National Grange adopted a
resolution at its recent convention in
Boston declaring for the open shop
and in favor of collective bargaining.
I'VE disapprove of any system" I"
the resolution said, which denies TO
any individual the right to work in
any place where there is need of his
industry at any time and at any wage
which is satisfactory to him, or quit
his employment wherever and for
whatever reason may be to him con-
trolling, subject only to such contract
obligations as he may willingly enter
into and as may be imposed in an
American court of justice.''
The Grange is against labor radical
ism which would throttle industry
and limit production by enforcement
of closed shop rules which deny en-
ployment to large numbers of compet-
ent workmen.
The Grange and the Nonpartisan
league are widely different in this
respect The national leaders of the
League would join forces with organ
lied labor against the open shop. AS
a matter of fact organized labor s
methods are absolutely against the
best interests of the farmers.
There is nothing whatever in COM
mon between the two classes.

VALE, NoN-PARTIsAN LEAGUE

The recent election resulted in the
wiping out of the North Dakota Nom
Partisan League as a political menace
in all western states.
Farmers are withdrawing financial
support and refusing to pay their
IPostsdRted checks and subscriptions
and there are more bills than cash.
Banks are refusing to take the
checks and one bank in Colorado re-
ports holding over a hundred of tho
SIG obligations for dues.
The Kansas City Post, Democrat
ic paper that repudiated the program
of state socialism put forward by the
League says:
when the campaign of education
against the League was started, many
of the farmers who had given these
checks made up their minds that they
had made a mistake. The first thing
they did was to stop payment upon
their checks for their membership
fees.
'It is estimated that the league
membership has been reduced by full
ly one-half In the last few weeks.

SUGAR AND BEETs

After six years of abnormal condi-
tions in he sugar industry, things are
now getting back again to normal.
This means competition.
There are unmistakable signs that
sugar prices will work lower, which
means that in order to make fair
profits the sugar companies must in
crease production and decrease man
ufacturing cost. The high cost of
labor is one of the most vital issues
and particularly SO as the price Of
sugar declines.
One of the most effective ways to
Offset declining sugar prices and the
high cost of labor is the installation
of electrically driven machinery. In
completely electrified plants, the la
Dor output per man is increased to a
remarkable degree.
The farmer is in the same position.
He must figure on his profits coming
from increased production per acre
and efficient handling of his crops,
rather than from abnormally high
prices as for past few years.

Why Newspapers Advance

Many people have asked why when the price of other
articles falling newspapers all the country in
creasng in price The increased subscription price is
by phenomna increases in price OF paper labor and
materials used in the making of newspapers in which there
has reduction yet and has been made in every
instance very reluctantly by publishers and delayed long
as possible in the hopes Of reduction in costs.
The past two years have been the most critical in the
history newspaperdo There have been
suspended and consultations forced to avoid bank
ruptcy than any other period Many Of the countrys long
established newspapers have changed hands to add
ona capital necessary to operate For another year at least
these phenomnal conditions will continue.
Practically all the newspapers Of the country that do not
own their paper mills or have long time favorable con-
tracts with paper mills made before the war; have been
forced to raise both subscription and advertising rates
Of business The cent longer exists Most Of
two papers have become three cent and the
five cent paper established institution in many cities
Few papers make any subscriptions or aim to
make any but the subscription should be high enough to at
the cost Of white used and the expense OF
distribution In cities approximately half OF the subscription
price goes carriers leaving the balance to pay Tor white
paper Against the country circulation the expense Of the
mailing room and postage-the latter recently raised
One copy Of The Capital Journal sent year averages
so pounds in weight of paper The cost of the white paper
used for one subscription at the best price obtanabe under
yearly contract about cents pound delivered is $780,
without figuring printing distribution costs and even at
advanced rates. circulation receipts will scarcely pay
paper BILL
Everything used in the making of newspaper to
be in the control of trust that charges all the traffic will
Printing machinery Of all kinds has increased from SO
to 150 percent in price the past three Paper two
cents before war; three cents during the sells at
coast mills for eight and half cents pound contract or
ten and half cents in carload quantities. and freight must
be added Ink holds its at 49, cents pound double it's
former cost.
On top the increased price of materials the in
creased wage scales Printers $42 week for A
hours work against $4 for 48 hours few and
salaries other departments show similar increases Even
the telegraph service has increased SO percent in cost
These the why the Salem papers forced
subscription rates. for they cannot operate at
loss any more than any other enterprise.

Just Folks u.... /, ?, cues.

When dawn arrives and over all
the shades of night descend
Somewhere there is a banquet OF
a show I must attend;
Into my evening dress jump, the
while my girl and lad
stand by me, as I shave myself,
to visit with their dad.
The old time father used to take
his children on his knee,
But that's one happy privilege
which life denies to me;
And yet I vow some day we three
VIII share the evening gloam,
And ! will tell them wondrous
tales-the night / stay at
home.
l often fancy I would like to
catch some mild disease
So I might stay in bed awhile and
read what books please.
Some conlfcytable ailment which
% suffer I'd enjoy.
With no committees to attend, no
phone calls to annoy
A few brief days of perfect peace,
too i'll to do a thing
Yet not too i'll to want to hear the
songs the youngsters sing.
Could break up the schedule
which compels me now to
Foam.
I'd realize my fondest dream-a
little time at home.
