First association; Lieut.. Col. O. j. Quane,
of st. Peter, vice president of the Sound"

Indrehus will be knitted in the pri-
mary because he is suspected Of being
friendly toward the Nonpa artisan League.
A slate Of delegates to the national
Demo convention in San Francisco,

elected at the state convention in Mime

Lynch of st. Paul and New York.
Most of the district delegates, as we'll
as the delegates -at-large, are for At
torney General Palmer for president. Y
Lynch has agreed not to seek re-
election as national committeeman from
Minnesota, but by controlling the Min
nesota delegation will be able to name
his successor.

the quality Of the former leaves much to
be wished for. We only hope that the
government will refrain rom ''investi-
eating the potato profteers, otherwise
the price is bound to mount still higher.
Hoover Is Big Cipher.


There are some things very strange
in political life, among them is why any
one outside Of the profteer class can
support Hoover for President. He has
had charge Of the food department and
what has been the result? -Four, pounds
Of sugar. for a dollar and then impossible
to get it! Probably millions Of pounds
in storage and everything else in the same
proportion and still they talk about his
being spontaneous candidate of the
people. It very much has the appear
ance that millions Of money was behind
him and put up by the profteers who
howl Jingoism and at the same time are
plundering the people. Fairmont Daily

bund politicians and proftAers of the

DEMOCRATS OF MINNESOTA
CAN'T AGREE ON GOVERNOR.
Mayer Hodgson Of st. Paul Is Said
TO Be white Hope of Lynch
and Anti-F actions.

Though there are now FIVE candidates
for the Democratic nomination for
governor, none Of these is quite salts
factory to the bosses, according to dele
gates to the recent Lynch controlled
Democratic state convention in Mime

Mayor Laurence G. Hodgson Of ST.

white hope, provided he defeats vii;

parsian Political League candidate for
mayor. Of st. Paul, in the municipal
election May 5.
Frank A. Day Of Fairmont and other
Democratic war horses were outspoken
in their advocacy Of Hodgson. Hodgsons
appears to be the one candidate on which.
the Lench and anti-L ynch politicians
can agree.

Change to Make Money.

Here's new knock on the Equity.
Sheep can be bought Of the Equity people
in South St. Paul and sold to the packers
in the same yards for a dollar more per
head. The Madelia man who is reported
to have made this discovery certainly
doesn't need money or else he would stay
in St. Paul and buy up all the Equity
receipts and sell them to the packers.
Or, if he didn' n'twant to do that, he could
ship to the Equity, buy them back again
and sell to the packers, thus making two
profits. s.-Madelia Rural News.
The poor Madelia simp referred to
above demonstrates his supreme ig-
norance by not taking advantage OF this
great opportunity to possess himself with
bunch of easy money. Or is he
conscientious objector" against this
method of obtaining coin Of the realm?
At any rate, he should not have placed
temptation in the way Of his fellow NOR
tails by exposing" this bonanza. .
New Ulm review., 1920-04-21

Sugar enough in the country to supply
all our needs and the price scars.
Leather enough in the country for all
reql irements- and you know the prices
of shoes. Wool enough in the country
and rsuit with So or Sc worth of wool
in it costs from $45 to $50. Lumber
enough in the ,country-and prices be-
yond belief Food enough in the country
and the poor are under noursihed.
Then some yelping profteer or politician
or sycophant editor tells you there is no
need of movement like the Nonpartisan
League or labor party. and tht .such8
organizations are un-American. If the
vendors of sugar, shoes, clothing, lumber
and food on their present basis are
American, then Americansim has de-
Perforated lamost as much as the living
examples would lead one to believe.

BODY OF SOLDIER ARRIVES.

The remains Of Christ. j. Ginkel. son
OF Of Mr.. and Mrs. Christian Ginkel of this
village, who died while in the service of
his country, arrived here last Sunday
from Paington, England; for burial.
Private Christ. j. Ginkel left Nicollet
with contingent of Nicollet county
drafted men on June 25, 1918 and arrived
overseas sometime in September when
he contracted flu pneumonia and was re-
moved to a hospital where he died Oct.
Is, 1918. He was buried in the Americ-
an cemetery at Paignton where his body
remained until it was shipped home for
burial several weeks ago, at the request
of relatives. This is the first body of
an American soldier to be sent from across
the sea to Nicollet county The funeral
was held from the local depot Monday
morning with services at 10 o'clock at
the grave, by Rev. F. Koehler, pastor of
the Nicollet Lutheran church. Inter
+ment was made in the church cemetery
at Old Nicollet. The pallbearers were all
comrades in arms of the deceased, and
had served overseas. They were: August
Grams, Claude McPhail, Ralph Oslund,
Gustav Heidemann, Arthur Dallmann
and Carl Joern.-Nicollet Leader.
Mr.. and Mrs. August Wegner of Lam
tberton were recent New Uln callers.
New Ulm review., 1920-04-21

August wasted considerable perfectly
good white space in last weeks issue of
the Springfield Free Press in a dyspeptic
attack on the good citizens Of New Ulm
who helped to elect DR.. L. A. Fritsche as
mayor. We. expected as much, knowing
August's wonderful proclivities as. a
"long distance fighter When his law
partner was overwhelmingly defeated for
the nomination for village recorder in
Springfield prior to the election last
month, the diplomatic lawyer editor
failed to utter the usual whimper but,
of course, that was close home, and
August is not very handy with his
dukes" We might refresh his memory
to the extent Of recalling that he bitterly
scored the county commissioners for not
appointing his law partner as county
attorney b few months since, basing his
diatribe on the fact that his law partner
should have received this appointment
as reward for entering the service of
our country during the World war.
Evidently August does not measure his
fellow citizens with the same standard
of patriotism that he sets up for the
county commissioners and the voters of
New Tim.

People Matst Get Busy.

What the people of this country must
do, is to make politics business! says
Cappor's Weekly of Emporia, Kansas.
1t is said no other nation on earth
would allow its citizens to be, robbed of
the earths most valuable treasures, as
this one has been, and that it is this in
difference to the nations welfare by those
in authority which causes the germ of
rebellion against the government to
grow. The people are exploited and their
resources are exploited, though we have
laws enough to safeguard both.
The cause is deeper. The people of
this col ntry have just as representative
a government as they deserve to have.
In years gone by they have been too
Indifferent to their own interests in that
government to got to the polls and vote
regularly at every election. When half,
or less than half, of the eligible voters
fail to register or 60 to the polls, it is not
much wonder that our representative
government often fails to represent the
people.
When politics becomes business with
the people, and that is what it is becom-
ing-they will draft men Of ability in
stead of men of ''pull'' to fill the offices
and conduct the public service. No
politician can solve industrial problems
in business and industry for the benefit
of all, when he knows nothing of business
Or of industry and has no genuine interest
in the welfare and progress of the people.
We need business and executive ability
in politics and it has now become our
most important business to get it there.

Fooling a Few Farmers.

A branch OF the Minnesota Sound
Government association has been formed
in Blue Earth county, and number of
influential farmers have been elected to
office in the organization. "A great many
Minnesota farmers are beginning to look
with suspicion upon the socialistic lean
ing Of the Townhy party st. Peter
Herald.
The fUnsound" Government Associa-
tion may be able to pull the wool over
the eyes Of some few farmers throughout
the state, but at the prevailing price Of
.sheep's down" the plunderbund pot
will not contain sufficient simoleons to
provide enough wool to go around. Also,
the wool may turn out to be shoddy, in
which case it might be at least semi
transparent, thus failing to serve the
purpose for which it was intended.

Behind the President.

During the World War, and prior to
our entrance into the great strife which
shook the very foundations of Europe,
frantic efforts were being made OF have
the American people ''stand behind the
president" The newspapers-bi big and
and little threatened; public men ex-
horted; all variety of punishment was to
be meted out to those "disloyalists' who
refused to accept the call of national duty
and remain true to the chief executive.
Thomas w. Lamont of the Wall street
money-lending firm Of J. P. Morgan &
Co., financial and economic advisor to
the American commission at Paris and
chairman Of the bankers committee
which has charge Of the rehabilitation of
Mexico, has written an article, published
in the Manchester, England, Guardian,
JAN 27, 1920, in which he makes the
following statement:
At the request Of certain of the foreign
governments the firm of Messrs. j. P.
Morgan & Co. undertook to coordinate
the requirements Of the allies, and then
Z to bring about regularity and prompt
ness in fulfilling those requirements.
Those were the days when American
citizens were being urged to remain
neutral in action, in word, even in
thought. But our firm had neuer for one
moment been neutral; we didn't know how
to be- From the very start que did eueru-
thing that ue could to contribute to the
cause Of the allies. And this particular
work had two effects; one in assisting the
allies in the production of goods and
munitions in America x: the other
in helping develop this great and profitable
erport trade that our country has had,
The. export trade is the key to the
situation. So long as it was held out as
prize for American bankers to win,
there could be no thought Of standing
behind the president or doing ANYTHING
else that curtoiled profits. Export trade
issa business with which not even national
loyalty may interfere.
Z Is there still any sane person in the
United States who doubts the real reason
for our entrance into the World War?

ASKS PRESIDENT WILSON
TO AID WHEAT FARMER
Gov. Allen Cites Danger of Ire
mendous Losses by Sudden
Price Declines.

WICHITA. Kan. October Coy.
Henry j. Allen of Kansas late yester-
day sent a telegram to President Will
son, calling attention to the sudden
ldeclnes in the price of wheat and
the farmers of this section of the
icountry, and asked the President to
take some action to provide relief.
| Gov. Allen recommended in his tele-
gram Searching investigation of
the operation of the Chicago Board OF
! Trade where. he said. spectators were
itrying to force the price of American
grown wheat down to the low leFelS
| of Canadian wheat. Since remoNai OF
tariff restrictions, the telegram ue
lower price than the United states
farmer can afford to accept.
The telegram follows
ITO the President. Washington. d. G.:
THE situation confronting the
wheat farmers of this section is
rendered exceedingly unfortunate by
/ the sensational breaks in the mar
iket The heavy natural decline is
| believed to be due to two causes the
purchase in the United States OF
Canadian wheat and the mampuiatioh
! of prices by spectators upon the
Chicago Board of Trade. Since the
removal of all tariff restrictions ana
! the added advantage which Canada
i has in her money exchange ana ner
cheaper cost of producing she is abie
Ito make a price lower than the
limited States farmer can aford 10
laccept.
This has been seized upon by the
wheat gamblers as a means or drlV-
ling our wheat prices down TO cana
dian levels. In case no relief can De
granted by you under present laws
for the protection of the home farmer
against free Canadian wheat, then 1t
lis believed that some favorable re
| suits might be obtained by an IN
vestigation into the manipulation OF
the Chicago Board of Trade.
I'm the interest Of the farmers OF
this section, who are menaced py
iactual loss, which will reach into the
millions of dollars. I am bringing TINS
isituation to your attention with the
urgent request that you cause TO. De
