to date we have seen nothing in 2t,hl
where these men have sponsored
favoring a protection of the starcn
and potato flour industry.
We have a vegetable flour mill at
Delta. Thousands and thousands OF
pounds of potatoes have gone to
waste in western Colorado this sea-
son, good potatoes, too. If our repre-
sentatives and senators from the I'M
mediate vicinity would put in one
half as much of their time harping for
protection to the potato industry as
they have taken on some Denver
preacher and the amount of booze,
white mule or other liquids said
preachers do or do not consume, they
would be doing this section great
