The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1922-09-22
September %, 1922

Three years ago, just after the
hurly-burly of the World War, the
present writer endeavored to portray
in the American Jewish Year Book
the sad and sombre picture of the
life of the Jewish people in central
Europe, as we'll as the sad, though
less gloomy scenes in the life of our
co-religionists in Western Europe
and America, in those dismal days of
after-war strife, hatred, and terror
ism. For, although the World War
had officially ended, the flour horse
men, Plague, War, Famine, and
Death,-were still riding in cyclonic
circles, over hill and dale, through
town and countryside, leaving in
their rear not as many myriads of
victims as during the preceding holo-
caust, it is true, but much smaller
number smaller number which
was greater than the count of those
sacrificed in many stfirst-class" war
during the previous epoch.
When that essay was written, it
was the authors belief that at least
five years of turmoil would precede
the return of sanity and humanity.
Indeed, these precious prerequisites
for human progress have not COM
pletely come back even yet; but if,
as many believe, the condition of the
Jewish people is barometer of So
cial advancement, there is substantial
ground upon which to base the hope
that the next two years will witness
tremendous leaps upward toward the
plane of real world peace, for the
past year saw the dawn of a brighter
day for the Jewish people, the world
over, and especially for the Jewish
masses in Central Europe. This may
not be apparent Immediately because
we still see about us some of the
minor symptoms of those social dis
eases which followed the war, but,
fdently be made that the patient is
definitely on the road to recovery.
LITERARY MAssACREs
For example, just before the be-
ginning of the past year, 5682, the
wide-flown conspiracy of calumny
and SANDER against the Jewish peo-
pie, based on documentary evil
dence" in the shape of the now thor
oughly discredited Protocols of the
Learned Elders of Zion," had begun
to collapse. The death-blow to this
pernicious propaganda, at least in
solar as Western Europe and Ameri-
ca is concerned, was dealt by the
Times of London, a journal which
had previously pretended to place
some credence in the inane pasqui-
made. 1t was late in August of 1921
that the Times published three arti-
cles from it's correspondent in Con-
stantinople, showing in an incontro-
vertible manner and to the satisfac-
ton of all, including many who had
been misled, - the unpersuadable
Morning Post, always excepted
the Protocols was a base literary
forgery, manufactured by that pre-
cious crew, the secret police of Tsar-
list Russia. Anti-Jewish propaganda
in occidental countries, where intel
ligence is universal, could exist only
so long as it's sponsors could appeal
to the reason of the people, but with
Protocols pulled down, the entire

]. ". ANDERSON
FOR SENATE IS
WELL PLEASED

Miles City American: Distinguished
visitors in our city today were Hon.
J. W. Anderson, republican candidate
Oscar Collins, sheriff of Sheridan
county, but who has filed with Sec
retary of State Stewart a declaration
of his intention to become a candi-
date for congress from the Eastern
Montana district They were just in
from a tour Of McCone and Garfield
counties, and they reported the pro-
gressive sentiment as very rapidly
expanding in those localities.
Mr.. Anderson, who has become a
candidate for the senate in response
to demands made upon him by the
progressive elements of his party, is
unquestionably the best equipped man
for the position now making the race
as a republican. His legislative ca
reer as a member of the Montana
state senate from Richland county de
monstrated him to be a man of the
broadest and most progressive views,
and he is unalterably opposed to
continuance of the imperialistic poll
cies which are now. seeking dominancy
throughout the country. The situa-
ton as affecting his candidacy ap-
pears to be daily more favorable, and
already a number of eastern Montana
counties have given him the strongest
endorsement. Mr.. Anderson is a
practical farmer, being located on the
Lower Yellowstone project.
It had been originally arranged that
Mr.. Anderson should deliver an ad-
dress in this city tomorrow evening,
but his engagements were such as to
compel a cancellation of this program
While here, however, he conferred
with a number OF the progressives of
his party, and to representative of
The American he stated that he found
the situation very satisfactory. With
six republican senatorial candidates in
the field, it seems to be the general
consensus OF opinion that Mr.. Ander-
son stands an excellent chance of
capturing his party nomination.

raise money to defray the election ex-

Republicans Will
Have Full
County Ticket
Harry Loucks Ducks Senate
and Files for Sheriff Carl
Bull Will File for Senate
Barner and LELAND File for
House on Republican Tic
ket-Others Yet to Come.

The republican members of the
great conglomerate convention have
withdrawn from the conpl lomeratiou
and during the week have been pus-
| syfooting about and gathering in Sc
cret places and framing a real repub-
lican ticket as an opposition ticket to
the League farmers of Sheridan coun-
ty and at this time have Just about
a complete ticket in the field.
Harry Loucks who was nominated
for the senate by the conglomerates
has made up his mind not to run for
senate as the bankers candidate and
has retired in the favor Of Carl Bull
of Redstone, the cashier of the State
Bank of Redstone, who will make the
race against Editor Taylor of the
Producers News, and Harry has filed
for sheriff on platform of claw en-
forcenlent without fear or favor" Mr..
Loucks is an intrepid candidate and
enters the race with great optimism
in spite of the fact that he has been
beaten the last two times he run for
Office. 1t is claimed that Hon. Truax
Greer and Attorney L. J. Onstad are
the big factors behind the candidacy
of Mr.. Loucks, who are very anxious
to have a man of their own choice
for sheriff. Of course Harry is beat
at the starting wire, which is very
pleasant for Rodney Salisbury, the
League candidate. George Pierce, the
veteran city marshal is thinking seri-
ously of throwing his headgear into
the ring also. Mr. Pierce is the old
county chairman of the republican
party in Sheridan county, where he
has been a republican war horse for
many years. Last election he very
successfully managed the campaign of
Judge C. E. Conner. He is an old SOL
dier, veteran of the Spanish Ameri-
can war and he feels that he has
something coming at the hands of
his party and his country, especially
as he was unsuccessful in landing the
appointment Of postmaster of Plenty
wood. Mr.. Pierce will probably file
for sheriff before the 9th of August.
He has lots of friends in Sheridan
county among the old liners.
Henry Barner of Plentywood and
Rasmus Ueland of Antelope, who
were nominated by the conglomerates
at the Saturday convention, disdained
that nomination and refused to run as
democrats, but having got the bee,
have filed on the republican ticket
against Clair Stoner of Outlook and
A. Th. Larsen of Dagmar. Both the
the above gentlemen are well known
farmers. Mr.. Barner has done well
at the farming game and has retired.

HOSPITAL DANCE
A HUGE SUCCESS
Overland Auto Raffled Of-Won By
Joe Winters of Ambrose, North Da-

from Effort.

The charity hall or benefit dance
given for the benefit of the Sheridan
County Memorial hospital last Satur-
day evening was a huge financial sue
cess as well as splendid social event
Probably one Of the largest crowds
ever attending dance in Plentywood
participated and the dancers did not
leave until long after daylight. A
large sum was realized by the hospi-
tai boosters.
The Overland automobile on which
tickets have been sold all over the
country was raffled. Joe Winters of
Ambrose, N. D., held the lucky num-
Der, it being No. 1881, which was the
last number bought.
The money derived from the dance

Wesley Anderson and Andy Malcolm
Returned from State Convention of
American Legion at KaIispeI Last
Week and Report Nothing Doing
for Riddick.

Wesley Anderson, Commander of
the Plentywood Post American Lee
gion, and Andy Malcolm, who were
delegates from the Plentywood Post
to the American Legion convention at
Kalispell last week, returned the early
part of this week from the conven-
ton where they report they enjoyed
splendid time and a very good and
constructive convention and a great
interest in the election Of officers.
Miss Alice Melquist was the delegate
from the PlentyWood Post of the
American Legion Auxiliary and also
attended the Auxiliary convention at
the same place at the same time.
Mr.. Wesley Anderson in an inter-
view with the Producers News reports
that the sentiment of the Legoinnaire
delegates is almost solid against Carl
Riddick for the United States Senate
and that most of the soldier boys are
fighting him tooth and nail because
Of his record in appointment Of SOL
diers to public positions. Mr.. Riddick,
he reports, prefers to put a politician
or henchman into public office than
one of the boys who risked his life
on the battle field in response to his
country's call, and that in many in
stance, persons born abroad have been
preferred in appointments to soldiers
of the realm who are native born. He
reports that at Livingston a politi-
clan who took an exemption because
he was married, and who, both himself
and his wife, worked in splendid pay
ing positions, safe and secure from
harm, during the war was appointed
by Riddick over the head of a very
capable and popular young soldier
who lost his leg in the service.
The soldier boys naturally 90 not
think that a man Of Mr.. Riddick's
stamp ought to go to the Senate from
Montana.

SH0PMAN'S STRIKE
Still CONTINUES

The strike of the Federated
Shopmen continues with no pros
pect of settlement, entering this
week into the fourth week of the
strike.
All efforts at settlement have
been fruitless.
Harding has asked :he Govern
ors to protect the railroad pro-
perty, and Governor Dixon saws
that he will not call out the state
troops until the local authorities
ask Tor assistance, and none have
yet asked for assistance. It is
thought that the state troops will
refuse to respond as the public
sympathy is unanimously with the
strikers and their resistance to
the forces driving them into alb
solute slavery.
The paper today reports that
forty United States Marshals have
been employed in Montana to pro-
tect railroad property and herd
lscabs.

STATE INSURES
MANY FARMS IN
SHERIDAN COUNTY

The 1922 hail season seems to
be about over with as there are
no more applications being made
at the County Assessors office
for State Hail Insurance and it
seems that the farmers in this
county gave most of their insur-
ance business to the State this
year.
So far 207 farmers have insur-
ed with thestate in this County
with a total protection of $751;
10000. This protects 29,357 acres
of crops-divided as follows:
Wheat, 25,091 acres; oats, 2,O54
acres; fax, 511 acres; barley, 72
acres; corn, SO acres; rye, 1881
acres and speltz, SO acres.
This shows an enormous in
crease from. 1921 when 1O6 farm
ers insured 1852 acres for to-
tai amount of S126,868.O0.
Owing to very light losses
throughout the State so far this
year it is believed by Assessor
Aspelund that the rates will be
much lower than last year, as last
year the losses exceeded the pre-
miums in this state by nearly
S12,000.00, but all losses were paid
in full. In view of this fact and
the light losses this year Asses
sor Aspelund believes that prac-
tically all farmers in the County
viii insure with the State next
year, as it is most economical
protection that can be obtained
anywhere.
The Assessors office does all
the work in connection with this
Hail Insurance absolutely without
pay outside of his regular salary,
and he estimates that all this
extra work, had a clerk been en-
ployed to look after it, would have
cost S135.00, but his force worked
evening to save this expense,
whereas If other Insurance con-
Germs had obtained this business.
the farmers would have had to
pay a good deal more for the in
surance and the agents who wrote
the business would have earned
commissioners of $6,274.32. This
is a direct saving to these 2O7
farmers who took advantage of
State Hail Insurance in this coun-
ty this year-without mentioning
the amount that will be saved on
the difference in premiums charg-
ed, which win undoubtedly amount
to another $4,000 or $4,000.
