Controlling The Spe sders

There will never be sufficient pol
ice forces to hold the speeding auto
mobihst in check. The scorchers
may behave fairly we'll in towns
when they see an officer, but when
they get out on the roads, their hog
nature shows itself. Speeders will
have to be checked by the action
of the motoring public, who shall
work to correct the excuses of
those of their own number who show
wrong spirit.
The Automobile Legal Association
of New England prints in its maya
zine a form of complaint which
members of that society are suppos-
ed to use in reporting reckless
drivers. On receiving such COM
plant with the motorists number,
the society demonstrates with him,
and urges him to cooperate in max
.ag the roads safe. A fellow who
thus gets called down a few times
begins to think.
The motorists of Iowa should CO.
operate in such ways to control the
speeding element, which makes the
roads dangerous even for careful
people. Whenever a driver does
rank thing some one should get
| his number and describe the incl
dent to some authority that will
take the matter up with him, and
persuade him to use more care in the
future. People are too good natured
in tolerating the reckless acts of
daredevil drivers.

A Hard Thing For People to Learn


Every line in a newspaper costs
the publisher something. If it is for
the benefit Of an individual, it should
be paid for. If the grocer was asked
to contribute groceries to one album
dainty able to pay for them, he
would refuse. The publisher of a
newspaper must pay for the free
advertising if beneficiary does not,
and yet it is one of the hardest
things to be learned by many that a
newspaper has space in its columns
for rent and must rent to live. To
give away space for anything less
than the living rate is as fatal to
a newspaper as for the grocer to
give away sugar.-Dyersville Com
mercial.

|HE AIRING ON REDUC-
TON OF GRAIN HAND
LING CHARGE

Helena, Sept. 15.A hearing on
the matter Of the reduction of grain
handling charges by elevators has
been called by the division Of grain
standards and marketing of the De-
partment Of Agriculture, Labor & In
dustry at Helena, September Goth.
The hearing will be held in the senate
chamber at the capitol, beginning at
200 p. m.
g Complaints have been received by
the division of grain standards that
the present handling charges Of four
cents q bushel on wheat and six cents
q bushel on flax are eAcessive in view
Of the reduced labor costs and the
greatly deprecated price of grain
compared with the price when the
higher charges were imposed year
ago.
Charges formerly were two cents
q bushel on wheat and three cents on
fax. Complainants cite as evidence
that the elevators can reduce handling
charges the fact that some elevators
in Gallatin county are charging only
two and a half cents bushel on
wheat and some In the Flathead only
two cents a bushel.
All persons and organizations inter
ested in presenting evidence at the
hearing looking towards a reduction
Of the present rates, or their reten-
ton, are urged to have their evidence
in proper form so that it can be pre-
sented.
When the present rates were put in
effect a year ago, there were no par
ties present opposing the increase.

HOW OR zED
IERS ARE WIN
Ming CANADA

How Canadian organized farmers
have gained control of the government
of Alberta is described in an article
by Vernon Thomas IN THE NATION
for September 81 Under the leader
ship Of Henry w. Wood, they have
effected q strong organization to
which the elected representatives are
directly responsible. This principle
has been vigorously attacked by the
enemies Of the league as meaning the
abrogation Of representative govern
ment.o
Unlike the Nonpartisan League, the
United Farmers Of Alberta distrust
the traditional political parties and
work outside and against them. Hen
~ Wood is quoted as calling the Nom
partisan League political movement
in spite Of its name, and declaring
the Alberta farmers will make car
dinal mistake if they ever leave "athe
rock-bottom Of economic class-organi-
cation" Wood was q Missouri farm
.er for many years before he went to
live in Alberto.
Without any planks that could be
called radical, but promising to "gov-
ern in the best interests Of every class
in the province" the farmers orga-
nization is nevertheless AN important
indication Of present day ~.
revolution" In a group by nature
conservative, says Mr.. Thomas, it has
spread with the swiftness Of prairie
fire, among fuel prepared by long
standing grievances Of unsupported
intensity. In the next national cleo
election he predicts a very strong
showing for the dominion-wide farm
ers' association, which has been orga-
nized along similar lines to the United
Farmers of Alberta, and is headed by
the Honorable Thomas E. Crerar,
formerly Minister of Agriculture.

WHY GRAIN MOVEMENT IN
MINNESOTA WAS DELA1ED

Long delay In starring gIalA-si6 y
ING work ia Minnesota under the CoM-
mittee Of II plan was laid directly az
the door Of the Minnesota Farm bu-
reau Federation, in q communlcatlon
to the statewide meeting Of county
directors Of the Farm Bureau, in ST.
Paul last week. w. d. Schilling, dl-
rector Of the III. S. Grain Growers,
me. and president Of it's subsidiary
finance corporation and also a prom
inent Farm Bureau leader, and ]. N.
Anderson, director Of the y. S. Graln
Growers, Inc, and president OF the
EQUITY Coo Operative Exchange joint
" signed the statement.
The statement was regarded as 2
Hbombshell" by some observers, ana
the daily papers reported the event
as an open fight OF the Farm bureau
against the other two organizations.
The statement characterized as false
statements Of Farm Bureau officials
that nothing is being done towards
marketing the grain crop of 1921, and
pointed out that on the first business
day Of that same week the two coop
eratives named handled $50, 900 BUSH
els Of grain, and are daily handling
more than 100, 600 bushels at st. Paul
and Superior, while the volume is
growing.
Efforts of President E. L. Potter
and Secretary F. L. French to pre-
vent the statement being given to the
delegates directly were unavailing,
and copies were handed to all dele
gates. The statment was a formal
one. tvpewritten and recited the his
tory of the Committee Of II and its
Endorsement of existing cooperatlves.
Objections of the Bureau were direct
ed at any recognition of the Equity
Coz Operative Exchange by the Y. ;.
Grain Growers Inc, and criticisms
were directed against the proposed
contract between the two organiza-
ton, by which the Equity was tenn
porarilv to assist the u. S. Grain
Growers Inc. in beginning operations.
Later, the Farm Bureau officials OPP
ened the way for a settlement Of diff
ferences and sent word to President
J. M. Anderson that they had friend
I ly feeling for his organization. AT
times the conference developed bitter
words, however, and Mr. Schilling
was openly accused by the President
E. L. Potter Of being candidate fol
president of the Farm Bureau, an &C
cusation that Mr.. Schilling's friends
deny. Mr.. Schilling and Mr.. Ander-
son were both absent unavoidably and
Mr.. Schilling's reply to suggestions
cy of the Farm Bureau has not been
that he might aspire to the presiden-
received.
