Benjamin c. Marsh, managing di.
rector of the Farmers National Coun-
ell, Was hington, in Bismarck Satur-
day night and Sunday until he took
train to New York, to attend the
Democratic National Convention, de-
clared IA big fight is being made in
Washington over the Packers Con-
sent Decree. This decree was enter
ed in court in 1920 which was enter
ed to keep packers out of unrelated
lines Of business, such as distribution
of food other tlsln meat.
Mr.. Marsh said AN effort was be
ing made by packers to have this
decree set aside. Since it was enter
ed, the federal packer control act has
been passed. He also urged that the
administration of the packer control
act be vested in the Federal Trade
Commission instead of the Secretary
of Agriculture A fight was being
waged, he asserted, to prevent pack
ers from assuming Il domi nant posi-
ton in the distribution Of food sup
ply other than meat.
He also advanced new plan Of
farm relief. He declares much Of
the Indebtedness of the farmers of
the Northwest was incurred to en-
able the government to win the war,
the farmers accepting guaranteed
price of wheat less than the price
they got. He says the losses of the
farmers are a public debt and the
government should pay the debt to
the farmers. Marsh has been speak

I've always thought that Bingo
Buster might we'll be taken as our
guide; his fame has shone with
dazzling luster, he long has been our
boast and pride. When strangers
came, the town surveying, we
showed them it was wearing bells,
and always ended with the saying.
" 'Tis here that Bingo Buster
dweils." But recently his fame has
laded, and not a delegate knows
Why; perhaps the folks are getting
laded, with so much virtue always
by. It's sure that certain bootleg
venders are out to do him deadly
harm, denying all his moral splen-
dors, and saying he's a false alarm.
And all the convicts in the prison
would rend his wreath and diadem
hey say the means by which he's
risen should put him in the Jail with
them. And at the poorhouse all the
paupers denounce him as a total
loss; the stories of his worth are
whoppers, they say, by henchmen
put across. The tinhorn gamblers
of the village abjure his every state
ly stunt; they say he's always out
or pillage, while putting up sanity
front. And SO his friends can
scarcely muster a quorum when they
would defend their former leader.
Bingo Buster, who sadly sees his
glories end. 1t seems shame that
accusation from all the cheaper
grades of men should spoil a well
armed reputation, so none can build
it up again.

tion of Rida Johnson Young's play,
"Maytime' as adapted by Olga Printz-

represents the springtime of fife as
well as of the year, and its pretty
romance, to those who have not Deen

the fair name of the bride, announces
that he has returned to wed little

The second part of the play is a
sequel in the days Of the grandchild-
