Leonard Wood Club

The first real activity of the 1920
presidential campaign in Lamar be-
gan last Thursday when DR.. John
Glass, state organizer of Leonard
Wood clubs, arrived and held meet
ing that evening at the Commercial
club rooms for the purpose of organic
ing a local Wood club. There was a
large attendance and much enthusiasm
as tine General has many warm sup
porters here, not only soldiers but civ
ilians and both republicans and demo-
Gratis. The club organized by electing
DR.. c. T. Knuckey president, w. b.
Gordon, vice president, and w. E. Fish
er, secretly. Most of those present
signed the roll and others have been
coming in since daily. The chief fav-
orites here at present time seem to be
General Wood nd Governor Lowden,
but there are number of other can
didatcs who also have many followers.
The Register is absolutely open mind
ed in the matter, but has no hesitancy
in announcing as its first choice the
man who can get the majority of the
delegates at the big convention which
meets in Chicago on June s. No one
but strong man and able man can
get that and we are for him in ad-
vance. incidentally either Wood or
Lowdsn would suit US to big T.

The Radical Program

The Non-Partisan League and radi-
cal labor union campaign continues
in western states.
In Colorado the League claims a
membership of $4,000 and hopes to
have 25,000 by June 1st, 1920.
At Sixteen dollars per membership
that means a campaign fund Of $780,
900 in that state alone.
This will go quite a ways toward
getting control of the state house and
Legislature in any state.
There is a general campaign in all
western states and whatever gain is
made in electing men or enacting laws
is along lines Of pure socialism.
There is real danger that the pro-
gram of state ownership of utilities
and industries, natural resources and

Value of Sugar as Human Food

Sugar produced from sugar beets
contains 1914 calorics (energy and
heat units) per pound, or more than
wheat, beef, rice, corn and many other
energizing foods. The amount of su-
gar obtained from an acre of beets,
will feed 40 to so people per year on
average sugar rations.

The alliance between radical lead
ers Of organized labor and the social
ist party is complete. as they have all
to gain and nothing to lose by getting
political power IN any form.
In Russia the proletariat in the cit
les took the industries and the landless
peasants took the land and the same
natural alignment is planned here as
against lind owners and capitalists.
Intelligence and publicity can beat
this program but It can't be beaten
by simply keeping still.
