Kellogg Defended
t on Newberry Issue
C. o. P. WOMEN DETERMINED
TO GET REAL FACTS
BEFORE VOTERS.

Republican women of Minnesota are
going to meet Mrs. Peter Oleson and
other opponents of Senator Frank B.
Kellogg on the socalled "Newberry
i, ISSUE" They are determined not to
allow loose charges of corruption
and BRIBERY go unchallenged, and to
contest before the voters, it became
evident following an address by Mrs.
w. w. Remington before the Friday
Forum of the Republican Women's
club late Friday.
When Senator Truman, H. New
berry and his friends were brought to
trial under the prosecution instigated
by Henry Ford, Mrs. Remington told
the Forum, the judge presiding pro-
mptly threw out the charges of bri-
berry and corruption. "After a mil
lion had been spent in investigation,
not scrap of evidence was found of
any such acts" Mrs. Remington said.
E3The- charge on which they went to
trial was a conspiracy to violate the
CORRUPT practises act of Michigan,
limiting a candidates expenses to
$3.50.
Limitation Held Ridiculous
'When the appeal came before the
supreme court of the United States,
the judges of that court declared such
a limitation ridiculous. Five of the
Fx1dges held there was no case against
ar. Newberry, as the law was uncon-
gtutional. The other four held the
Wv valid, but said that Mr. New
berry was entitled to new trial. So
the court was unanimous against the
conviction.
II will say to those who are going
around the state, declaring that his
vote against the unseating of Senator
Newberry is milestone about the.

your judgment up above that of the
nine members of the supreme court

Early Cultivation
Makes Corn Hustle

Assuming that the corn grower
who is trying to increase acre yields
has already planted good seed of a
high yielding variety on well pre-
pared seed bed Of good soil, there
remains the matter of cultivation for
the remainder Of the season.
Early cultivation should be given
with a narrow-shoveled cultivator or
a light harrow, the teeth of which
are adjusted to slant backwards"

cultivator is preferable to the har-
row. Narrowing corn after it is up
always reduces the stand somewhat
but where there is more than full
stand to start with the first cultiva-
tion may be done in this way at a
saving in cost of labor. The har-
rowing should be done on a bright
afternoon when the plants are some
what wilted and for this reason less
easily broken.

culture is at the mercy Of those who
control credit and that many who
exert that control are not insym-
pathy with agriculture. The Farm
Bloc knows that farmers have suf-
fered and many have been ruined
financially by lack of credit
The Farm Bloc is seeking to
evolve a credit plan which will give
relief to agriculture which will make
more money for financing the slow
turnover of the farms, which will
give the farmer another opportunity
to go ahead with his work with
decent chance to make good. If that
is accomplished it will mean cheaper
food, more work, reopened factories
and mills, and the return of good
times.
The McNary bill extending the,
operation of the War Finance Cor
poration until July l, 1923, should
be promptly passed.
The Farm Bloc believes railway
freight rates are too high and must
come down. The bloc would restore
to State railway commissions much
of the power taken away from them
by an unwarrantable Interpretation
of the transportation act by the In
terstate Commerce commission.
The bloc is supporting the truth
in-fabric bill to compel makers of
clothing to brand their goods so that
the buyer will know the amount of
pure wool and the amount Of shoddy
in it."
The American Farm Bureau feder-
alton fathered the organization of the,
agricultural bloc, and the first meet
ing of the senate bloc took place in

eration's agricultural program for

Senator Newberry. After having In
vestigated it, I can say that had
been in the senate, could only have
voted as Senator Kellogg did, to con.
denim large expenditures Of money
but to absoIve Mr.. Newberry himself
and hold him entitled to his seat.
War Records Compared
Other points made by Mrs. Reming-
ton were:
The .Newberry family contri-
buted six men to the war, while
Henry Ford bent all his influence,
even to getting special classifi-
cation made, to keep his son out
of the service.
Michigan has $4,000 voters,
and merely to get his name be-
fore the public as Ford's oppon-
ent, Newberry had to spend many
times the legal limit.
Ford ran on both tickets in the :
same primary election, winning
the democratic but losing the re-
publican nominate though
backed by the national admins
tration.
The Newberry campaign state
ment was made public Sept. 6,
1918, showing $4,000 spent,
100000 for publicity and the rest
for workers, and two months aft
er this the people elected New
berry over Ford
The government dragnet to con-
Wet Newberrys brought in 134
men, 118 of whom were dismissed
without trial after dancing attend
ance and suffering disgrace for
months.
No man in the senate has been
elected without spending more
than the $3.50 limit fixed by the
Michigan law under which New
berry was convicted.
1T would have been an enormous
injustice" Mrs. Remington said, to
have unseated Senator Newberry for
things done by others while he was
serving his country, and to have seat
ed the opponent who spent his mill
lions defeating the cause Of prepared
ness, SO this country would have been
left defenseless against Germany.

Of the supreme court, addressed the
Forum briefly and was cordially re-
ceived.

as the rows can be seen is advisable
in such cases. This should be fol-
lowed by a deep and close cultivation
each way by the time the corn is
from four to six inches high. Pre-
paration of the seed bed after the
corn is planted is less effective and
costs more than when done at the

that it is SO much out Of the way

to have it. As taxpayer cer-

there should be a cut made some
where, but can't we possibly find

That the farmer has the most

ton. and he is entitled to just as
much comfort as the city peo-
ple. Yes. it was in some
peoples interest to get the
farmer to buy all he possibly
could. and the farmers let them
selves be lured even farther than
that and went into debt to such
an extent that a good many will
never get it paid in their life
time. The farmers products have
decreased so to 1870 in price the
last year or so. The interest and
taxes have been increased in the

think the teachers receive too
much. but we. who must pay the

it with. We must reduce the
taxes as well as other expenses

will be forced out of business or
at least reduced to a tenant on

a national disaster. As to the
decrease in the taxpayers ex-
penditures we all know there
has been a great big reduction
before we got to the teachers
salary. lest the teacher does not
know.
A thorough education is very
essential but to learn how to use
it right is of still more value and
that is the biggest responsibility
Of our teachers today. Do not
let our children get the impress
sion that when they acquire an
education they must dress more
expensive and in many other
ways live more luxurious. In
conclusion will say: All we, who
work. have to carry our part of
the burden of reduction in COM
pensation-why not the teachers
also? All We ask is square
