of the country a fair price for their
products, to say nothing of a proposal
that would guarantee such a price as
would enable Mr.. Baldwin's least eff
ficient slip-shod farmer to make fair
return on his crop regardless of
whether he had crop or not!
The farmer is long haul shipper.
His products must go far to reach the
home consumer, farther yet to ports
of export. In the light of these facts
it cannot be denied that high rates
are barrier between the farmer and
prosperity.
Present rates are manifestly unjust
to the man on the farm. Somewhere
is a basis of equity that will give him
relief from rates that deny him all
hope of restored prosperity and yet
gives the carrier due consideration
and value in full proportion to the
value of the service rendered When
this basis is found-and the next Con-
gress must find 1.-THE farmer will

SURE GOT QUICK ACTION

Four o'clock Monday morning
"Cap" Hager of the central police
station, was notified that a couple of
Newark men had landed in Crestline
in Jewett touring car, and had
wasted no time upon their arrival but
had at once broken into pool room,
where they were caught in the act.
They gave their residence as Newark
and were being held for investigation.
Captain Hager secured the license
number of the machine, informed it's
owner who was unaware that it had
been stolen, located the thieves, and
notified the Crestline officials to hold
the boys until called for AS the
owner of the stolen car had locked it
up safe in his garage between eleven
and twelve o'clock, all this happened
within a period of six hours, and Mr..
Hager is entitled to commentator for
his prompt and efficient action.

TIME TO CALL A HALT

Fatal automobile accidents have be-
come such a common everyday oc-
currence, that they merely excite pas
sing comment, and are forgotten the
next day. The speed-crank continues
on his mad career, apparently dis
regarding his own safety and utterly
Indifferent to the trail of disaster he
leaves behind. Can not some means
be devised to put stop to such con-
ditions? If the license of such ir-
responsible drivers were permanently
revoked it would not only put stop
to their murderous speed, but would
check to a great extent the reckless
driving which has become a deadly
menace on our highways. This would
of course be a drastic measure, but
time for halfway action has passed
and the general public demands that
something be done.

THE COMING PRIMARY

The time draws near when you must
make your selection from among the
many candidates for municipal Of
fees, and too much care and judg-
ment cannot be exercised in making
your choice. Most of the gentlemen
who have signifed their willingness
to act as your servants are trust
worthy representative citizens, many
of them are members of Labor organ
izations, and others have given abun-
dant proof of their friendliness to-
ward the movement. These men are
of course entitled to and should re-
ceive your support and vote. See to
it that they get it.

LOOKS LIKE A BIG VOTE

From present indications heavy
vote will be polled at this years pri-
mary elections. More people are re-
gistering than usual, and the Board
of Elections office in the city building
is doing a rushing BUSINESS, the line
of those in waiting for their turn
often extending out across the side
walk. Our friends should see to it
that they are Gully qualified to vote
for the union men and friends of la
Dor whose names appear on the pri-
mary ticket. If you need to re-
gister or require a transfer, attend
to it at once, don't wait until the last
minute-you may lose your chance.
And then on election day get to the
poll early and help elect union men
to office.

FOrd'S ROundhOuSe
Painted Pure White

Those familiar with the interior of
any old railroad roundhouse know it's
one of the most dingy and dirty-look-
ing places on earth, SCOT usually COW
ering the entire structure.
It's different on Henry Ford's road,
the D. T. & |. The place is almost
white, the entire roundhouse
being washed and painted at least
once every 10 days. The innovation
has wonderful effect upon the men
employed.

SEN. JOHNSON
WILL BE HEARD FROM IN NEXT
CONGRESS
He FavOrs UNFOLDING Rights of Labor
and the Farmer-Says Happiness
Depends on the Prosperity
of the Workers"

What manner of man is this Mag
nus Johnson, whose great victory in
Minnesota has made him national
figure overnight? ?
Unable to find any weak spot in his
record as public official and leader
of farm organizations, his opponents
endeavored to overwhelm him with
ridicule.
For weeks corps of unscrupulous
Especial correspondents" have been
flooding the papers with stories pic
turing johnson as uncouth, illiterate
and vulgar. These yarns had no eff
feet in Minnesota, where the people
know Johnson.
From the point of view of the farm
ers and industrial workers his record
was 100 per cent good.
AS campaigner he has few equals.
His opening speech at Isanti on June
23 was such model document that
hundreds of thousands of copies were
printed and circulated throughout
Minnesota, and had tremendous eff
feet on the result.
1t was such a speech as. Lincoln
might have delivered. 1t proved one
of the strongest campaign documents
in the senatorial fight. Here are some
of the things Johnson said:
81 am as much against labor defa-
ton as | am against farmer deflation.
The strength and happiness Of ma
tfon depends on the prosperity of it's
city workers and farmers-not one,
or the other, BUT BOTH.
Zone can not gain by the mis-
fortune of the other. Business in gen.
eral can gain nothing for having la
Dor and farm prices below the cost of
production. Lawyers, doctors, and
dentists need a prosperous people to
practice on. Grocerymen and butchers
need consumers who can buy.
"War profteering was not neces-
sary. There would have been none
of it if the anti-farmer politicians
had been as bold at conscription of
private property for war as they were
in conscripting the lives of our young
men.
Government should assume the
full functions Of protecting both life
and property. Private armies or So
called gunner should be tolerated
nowhere under the American flag.
81 believe the assumed right of the
Supreme Court to declare acts Of
Congress unconstitutional by a 5-to-4
vote should be ended
"War profiteers got their profits out
Of the war. The farmers got mort
cages"
Johnson was born in Varmland,
Sweden, in 1871.
He learned the trade of bottle
blower and became connected with the
trade union movement.
At Fl he came to America, went
West, worked in the lumber camps of
Wisconsin and Minnesota, joined the
old Knights of Labor, saved his
money, and, 20 years. ago bought
farm near Kimball, MINI.
While Preus was holding office,
Johnson was cultivating his farm or
representing his neighbors in the
state legislature.
In 1922 he ran for governor on the
Farmer-Labor ticket, and without
money or organization came within
$4,000 votes of defeating Preus.
1t is tribute to the intelligence of
the voters of Minnesota that when
called upon to make a choice between
Johnson the worker and Preus the
politician they forgot party ties and
elected the worker by a majority of
over $4,000.
