WEDNESDAY, JANUARY Il 1922

Trading out Of town cauaes a good 4
deal Of hard feeling in country places
and country newspapers often argue
the issue at some length During
the past few weeks the writer o this
art.cle has undertaken a few small
experimental Investigations Of prices
in Bennington and elsewhere The
astonishing thing is the variation.
There are articles of everyday use
which can be bought IN Bennington
for half what they cost in Troy and
Albany and there are other things
that cost twice. as much here. One
thing that seems apparent is that IN
a country town the dealers do not
change prices promptly as they do In
the larger cities. For instance, one
article in common use We found 500
at the same price IN Bennington the
year round while the same article in
Troy had wide variation IN price,
sometimes higher and somet.mos
lower than tho standard price here,
going up ana down with tho whole
sale market Buying out OF town Is
not always unwise but It is often
folly. The thing to do is to take
the QUITO town sample or price lis,
to a local dealer In t1rea quarters
of the cases he can match the goods
for less money at home VIII in a
few cases It viii be found best to buy
elsewhere. The world over It is the
favorite argument OF provincial PEG
pie that things cost more in their
town t1an they do anywhere else on
earth. As matter Of fact thero is
no, great variation where cond tons
are slmfar ard those who are the
most earnest in argument are often
those who have had only d limited
exper.enee In actual buying.

until this time unused. At Eau
Claire, at Chippewa Falls, at New
Richmond, at Ashland, at Park Falls,
nd Marshfield he was greeted by the
community band. Everywhere folks
pressed to entertain him. Where
he talked at noon they wanted him
back for O. night meeting.
1t was the north country that gave
him the name "Trust-buster." On
his first day, he was introduced at
Alma, Wisconsin by Ed. CAM, veter-
an legislator and progressive, as
"Bill Morgan the trust-buster." The
name stuck and spread and through
out his trip he was greeted every
where as the "Trust-buster."
Besides the primary fact of Nor
gan's remarkable reception is the in
terest taken by women in the candi-
date. No meeting regardless of
what hour in the day or how small
the place that there was not some wo-
men present. IN most Of the places
women took active part in arrang-
ing his meeting while in Eau Claire,
iChippewa and several other cities he
spoke under their auspices.
Morgan returned to Madison Mon
day for a few days at his head
quarters. He is in splendid health
and declare that despite the fourteen
hour-a-day schedule he had just COM
Ipleted he had gained three pounds.
His voice is good and he has taken
on coat of tan from speaking out
in the open.
The reception of Morgan through
out in the north and especially in Eau
Claire, Chippewa Falls, Chippewa,
Bayfield,, Ashland and Douglas couun-
ties is taken as of vital significance.
1t was understood that he would be
a good deal in enemy territory on
this trip. Yet from reports Morgan
leaders say they conceed nothing to
the opposition.
Morgan's slashing, driving trip, his
clean-cut statement of principles called
by him his contract with the people"
his lack of bombasity have secured
heavily for him, in addition to put
ting Darrell of fight" into his sup
porters.

NORTH WISCONSIN
LIKES VIM. J. MORGAN

MADISON, Wis.-The northern
part of the state knows now why At
torney General William J. Morgan is
called Fighting Bill"
1t had heard and read for year of
the fearless go-get-them trust-bust-
ing activities Of the attorney general.
Folks looked forward to meeting him.
They had heard that he was tall and
gaunt and that he had been born on
a farm and had sweated as a quarry
and section hand that he might OBJ
tain an education. The north is
much pioneer country and this new
figure in politics appealed. They
wanted to see him.
For ten days, beginning July 6
and ending last Saturday they got
closeup and from accounts re-
ceived in Madison, from the enthus-
iasm and spontemity of his reception
that swelled as he made his charact-
eristically whirlwind tour it was an
immensely grained look.
Starting in Eau Claire, Morgan in
ten dayss covered II northern coun~
ties. He travelled close to twelve
hundred miles and made fifty speech
es. Everywhere he was given mark
ed attention in the size of his crowds
and their interest. The north
country is in the midst of what looks
like bumper year, yet folks knock
ed off work and farming and came to
hear Morgan.
They wanted to see this man that
had done what no other state officer
had ever done-tackled big business
and did it with laws that have been
on the statute books for thirty years

IN DISTRESS

MADISON, Wis.-Homeless farm
ers and settlers, houses and buildings
destroyed, equipment and personal
belongings scattered, crops damaged
land mortgaged-that is the situation
today according to the State Tornado
Relief Committee after having made
q detailed survey of the losses sus-
tanned on each farm in the stricken
area in the northwestern Wisconsin
cyclone district.
Large sums of money must be rails
ed to partially start anew the farm
iers and settlers who have sustained
severe losses in the cyclone area The
!, scoperty damage, excluding damage
to growing crops, household goods,
fences and timber in the four coun-
ties will exceed five hundred thou
sand dollars.
Early in the evening of June Is,
1922, one of the worst wind storms
recorded in the history Of Wisconsin
|passed over the northwestern part Of
the statee. 1t started in the town
of Hammond, st. Croix county, and
extended in northeasterly direction
through the counties of Polk, Dunn
and Barron, laying waste a stripe a
mile and half to six miles wide and
twenty miles long. 1t sprea.l de-
struction in its path, killing seven
people, destroying houses, harms
and damaging growing crops. Many
families are homeless and are shell
tered by neighbors or in state militia
tents, Some have lost evely Caing
and only have left the clothes on
their backs. All have sustained sew
ere losses.
Relief associations have been or
ganized in each of the four counties
affected by the storm. They have
assessed themselves fifty thousand
dollars and the money is being rails
ed locally. The little town OF Clear
Lake, Polk county, raised three thou
sand dollars in less than day. These
county assessment care for the i'm
mediate and urgent needs of the de-
stitute. Two thousand four hun

Representatives Of the National
Red Cross society, the local Red
Cross, together with the Director of
immigration, acting as representa-
tive of the State ST & Tornado Relief Com
mittee, have completed a detailed sur
vey and inventory of the losses.
Here are extracts from some of
the latest official reports to the
state relief committee. There are
many such cases.
Saugstad Fam-Everything de-
stroyed in the line of buildings,
|clothing, dishes, etc. Four killed,
Including the head Of the family. No
insurance.
Jess Van Blairicon lost everything.
Whole family of seven members in
jured. No insurance. Wife in
critical condition with leg amputat-
ed.
Thomas Longton's new home and
barn destroyed. Has mortgage on
farm. Family of five children rang
ling in age from eight years to two
months. No insurance.
| Walter Richter spent six years put
ting up buildings, doing all the work
himself. House, barn, garnary, silo,
blown away. He has several small
children, one acripple four years old;
now living in temporary shack
erected out of the wreckage and in a
lconical tent on which is sign-"Be
of good cheer" That sign largely
Expresses the spirit of the stricken
people. Loss $6,000-insurance
l$1,200.
| Temporary needs and immediate
necessities of these people have
been met by the local relief assoc
lciations. The future needs cannot
be met by the local people. The
burden is too great. Thousands OF
dollars will not begin to supply the
Irelief needed to take care of the
needs of the homeless. No half
way measures will do. Each one
must contribute the limit of his abb
llity. These are not people in the
liar corners of the earth-they are
our own people, friends, neighbors
land citizens. The need is real, ur-
gent and immediate.
Think of having worked for score
of years., early and late, to grub out
The stumps from forty acre tract,
Ito have saved and denied yourself to
secure the necessary funds to erect
a small frame dwelling house, a
barn and other out-buildings, and
then to have them all wiped out In
the twinking of an eye! This is
what happened 10 scores of honest,
industrious farmers and settlers in
the newly settled portions of St.
Croix, Dunn, Polk and Barron coun-
ties. Will you not be one to con-
tribute to their relief? Money is
what is wanted. Y
Not one cent of the contributions
will be used for expenses. The state
and local committees are serving with
out pay or any thought of recompense
other than to relieve suffering. Every
dollar collected. will be sent to the
lstricken area and will be distributed
under the direct supervision of the
National Red Cross Society, cooperat-
ling with the local and state relief
committees.
Relief contributions and collections
