OBSERVATIONS
(By the Cornfeld Philosopher

The active and aggressive work Of
the special interests has driven out of
public life, silenced, or converted
nearly every CONSPICUOUS public man
who has fought them except Bob La
Toilette. How did they do this? SIM
ply by owning or substituting nearly
all of the newspapers and financing
political campaigns. They we're fully
organized while the common people
had no efficient organization.
The Minnesota Anti Saloon League
largely financed by big business is
trying to make the people believe that
the fate of the dry cause depends on
Volstead's reelection to Congress.
How many voters can it delude by
this hypocritical pretense? Volstead
himself was too honest or didn't dare
to make this an issue.
Judge Johnson decided in the Kvale
case that the fellow who had the
least number of votes was duly NOM
mated thus setting aside the will of
the majority, one of the fundamental
principles of Republican form of
government. It is no wonder that the
Supreme Court over-ruled him.
How many times has the Corrupt
Practices Act been invoked in Mime
sofa to keep duly nominated candi-
dates off the ballots? It is new
thing under the sum-" is it not? Well,
let us see to it that this ingenious
twist of the law don't keep Volstead
in Congress any longer to misrepre-
sent the majority of his Constituents
and do the bidding of Wall Street.
That great agricultural paper that
ought to be in every farmers home,
The Iowa Homestead, is publishing
some tables showing the increases in
freight rates on live stock shipment
from numerous points under the in
famous Cummins-E sch bill which four
Congressman from Minnesota, Ander-
son, Newton, Volstead and Steiner
son supported. According to these
tables it can be easily figured out
that the additional transportation tax
imposed on the average small farmer
is at least $1O0 per year while this
tax on a half section of land or more
could rapidly reach $500. This is one
of the things Minnesota farmers get
for opposing 'TOwnleyism" and fight
ing the Non-Partisan League. How
do you like it? The League was SOL
idly in favor of the Government keep
ing the railroads two years longer
without any increase in freight rates.
When Uncle Sam owns and oper-
ates the railways he will transport
stock to the farmer-owned packing
plants just as quickly and as cheaply
as he does the same service for Swift
and Armour. And he will carry the
finished product to the consumer on
the same identical terms. Nobody
disputes these statements or can dis
pute them. Then as the farmer owns
the fat hogs and cattle and would
Ehave equal facilities with the beef
trust of getting meats to the final con-
sumner under this system, why should
he not use his vote to give himself
the control of the business? We will
never get government ownership un-
til we elect a Congress and a Presi-
dent who believes in it. big bust
ness is solidly opposed to this pol
icy and the whole kept press is a.
gainst it. That is the best reason in
the world why farmers should advo-
cate and support the movement.

Why don't the enemies of the or
ganized farmers in Minnesota fight
fair? Why don't they quote the laws
actually passed in North Dakota and
proceed to show that they are vicious
in principle? Not one of the hirelings
of the Plunderbund on the stump dare
read one of these laws in full to his
audience. Why? Because the laws
are in the interests of the common
people, those who create wealth which
any person of fair intelligence would
discover if he once understood them
DR.. Shipstead (more power to his
elbow has struck the Steel Trust a
blow square between the eyes in his
"open letter. which everyone should
read. Why should they get iron from
the state, tens of millions of tons of
it. for only rs cents per ton when
they are paying private parties as
high as $3.50 per ton for ore Of the
same grade? And then to practically
escape taxation! You may expect
this state of affairs to continue as
long as politicians friendly" to the
steel interests are elected to the high
public Offices.
The way to win the Governor and
a farmer controlled Legislature is to
make a systematic school house cam.
paign. In every township we have
able and enthusiastic workers who
should direct the movement. Enlist
the services of the young, yes, and OF
the young women too. Follow this up
with two or more school rallies in
each precinct with the best speakers
that can be obtained. The writer is
available for a few meetings in the
9TH District after the 10th of Octo-
Der. Let US all put our shoulders to
the wheel and push and victory will
perch upon our banners.

Miss B. Maude Bailey.

1t has been the will of our Heavenly
Father to call from our midst, one
who was young in life, Miss Belle
Maude Bailey.
Gods ways are mysterious lnoeeo,
why one in the prime of life, Wnen II
would seem that she was best ntteo
tn carry on the Masters work here,
should be called to her heavenly home
is a mystery too deep for the human
mind. Yet, He doeth all things WISE
ly and well.
Maude was the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Herbert Bailey and was born In
Greensboro, September Z, 1891. Near
ly all her life was spent there except
ing a few years at East Craftsbury.
She was a graduate OF CraICspury
academy and for 10 years was sue
cessfully engaged in teaching. Upon
the advice of physicians she went to
Mary Fletcher hospital to be operated
upon for appendicitis. An internal
hemorrhage followed and second OPP
Grafton was deemed necessary. ms
proved too great shock for her sys-
tenn and she lived only week, her
death occurring on Wednesday morn
ing, August 4. Miss Bailey was
faithful member of the United Pres
byterian church and for several years
she had been the eInclenI orr aHis1, on
earnest worker in the Christian En-
deavor society and teacher IN the
Sabbath school. She was ever ready
to lend a helping hand and willing to
use the talents God had given her.
We truly sustain a great loss, yet our
loss is her gain.
The funeral services which were
largely attended, were conducted at
her late home on Friday, August 9th,
Rev. S. H. McDill officiating assisted
by Rev. Mr.. Peterson. The floral trib-
utes were many and beautiful.
A very tender heartfelt sympathy
goes to the bereaved family and dear
ones and we commend them to the
Master, the great source of all COM
fort.
