Minnesota Dairymen Are
Urged to Ask Tariff Charge
Browne Bill, Now Before House,
Sponsored by Creamery Associa-
tion-An Absolute Necessity

Every dairyman who has felt
the pinch Of the present low market
for butterfat is urged to get behind
the Browne bill, which provides for
an increase from to 20 cents per
pound in the tariff on imported but
ter, with proportionate upward
schedules on other dairy products.
The bill, introduced by Represen-
tative Edward E. Browne of Wiscon-
sin, has the unqualified support of
the Minnesota Cooperate Dreamer
les association. In fact, introduc-
ton of the bill is the direct result of
visit recently made to Washington
by John Brandt Of Litchfeld, presi-
dent.

Harry Hamilton got first in the

The tennis tournament was post
poned for second time. The tennis
court is of clay construction and
the drainage is poor. Thus it is i'm
possible to use the court for day
or two after each rain. However,
the tournament will be held this week
if possible, perhaps on Friday after
noon.
Next week Wednesday the big
Field day for June will be held. The
scouts from Long Prairie and Mel

boy belonging to the scouts and any
other boy in Sank Centre under 16
years of age can take part. Come

session during the summer months
in Washington. According to those
well informed on agricultural sub
jects the future Of Congressman and
Senators seeking reelection will
hinge largely upon climatic and mar
keting conditions. The statement is
made that the farmers will know the
conditions and their opinion of legis-
lators will be governed accordingly.
It has been customary to regard the
farm vote as normally Republican
but the Democrats say that 1924 is
not normal year politically and that
the campaign will not be "cut and
dried'' affair.
A controversy as to who must
share the credit and the blame for
the transactions of Congress is al
ready developing to an interesting
point. The Democratic National
committee in its free editorial SER
vice to newspapers claims that the
bills which have attracted most at
tention are those which the President
has urged Congress to defeat, that is,
the Pension bill, the Bonus bill, and
the immigration bill. The first two
he vetoed" Likewise they claim that
"the Tax bill as it was passed was not
a Republican but Democratic meas
ure in it's essentials" The Republi-
can campaign book claims that the
Democratic party overreaches itself
in crediting this legislation to their
organization. They in turn accused
the Democrats of obstructing es-
sential legislative measures for par
tisan gain. 1t appears that the organ
ization Republicans are bitter against
the tactics adopted by the so-called
insurgents" in forming alliances
with the minority. Party harmony is
seemingly at its lowest ebb. 1t is al
so fact that the Democrats are not
in perfect agreement on party poll
cies.
The Walsh report on the oil in
vestifation was surprisingly mild In
view of the sensational testimony adj
duced before the special Senate COM
mittee during the winter months. 1t
is said that the Democrats were
disappointed because the Walsh re-
port was not in keeping with the
character Of the newspaper accounts
of the investigation, and as conse-
quence failed to provide what would
otherwise have been an excellent
campaign. document. The Republi-
cans have adopted the !" told you 500
attitude on the report. The oil
scandals will continue to provide
campaign arguments as the public is
interested in the final outcome Of the
sordid affair.
An effort will be made during the
campaign period to determine the
attitude of the public toward tax re-
duction. In signing the Tax bill last
week the President indicated that he
would ask the Congress at the De-
cember session to bring out new
revenue bill in keeping with the orig
inal Mellon plan. There is gener-
al agreement that the rs per cent re-
duction feature must be retained but
the President is not satisfied with the
present law. Further revision of
taxes depends upon the sentiment
expressed to the various Congress
men in their home districts during
the next few months. An important
legislative measure which went over
to another session is the so-called rail-
road labor disputes bill. Spokesman
for organized labor have announced
that they will make it a campaign in
every district,

INVENTION TO ENABLE

English Scientist Presents
Acoustic Spectre

LONDON. July 16.-An apparatus
the ultimate development of which
may be that the deaf will hear" by
seeing was demonstrated by DR.. Z. Z.
Fournier d'Albe. thee minent scientist,
world famous for his work on seIeni-
um and his invention of the opto-
phone, the instrument by which the
blind read ordinary print.
The apparatus. styled by it's in
ventor an acoustic spectroscope,
consists of a series of resonating
boxes provided with tiny mirrors at
tached to mica reeds. Each of these
reeds is tuned to correspond to the
fundamental note of its own resona-
tor.
The first acoustic spectroscope is pro-
vided with only 20 resonators, which
cover just over an actave of sound,
but when a gramophone record of the
"Yeomen of the Guard" was played
about four feet from the apparatus
the spots of light on the screen
danced cheerily to the tune, indicat-
ing notes coming within the scope
of the octave provided for.
Il see no reason" he said. why
speech should not ultimately become
visible to the deaf in this way.
Music presents comparatively easy
problem.
Il think it will be quite possible
for the trained eye to see speech,
owing to the fundamental tones,
which will give some Characteristic
form to the medley of vibrations pro-
duced by a word, no matter who

Two additional Instances of per-

complying with the order of the
Commissioners requiring the muz-

Not only has the superintendent of
police directed prosecution of per-
sons violating the order, but the
police also have been instructed to
report instances of dogs found astray
that the poundmaster may impound
them.
Poundmaster Smith and his force
are busy from early morning until
night to rid the streets Of unmuzzled
and unlicensed dogs, and persons
wanting to surrender dogs are re-
quested to call the pound. City off,
cials also desire that information on
dogs running at large in violation of

SOVIET PRESS ATTACKS
RELATIVES OF STOY
Accused Of Accepting Undue Sub
serviance From Peasants, as
in Czaristic Days.

MOSCOW, July 1.-THE soviet press
has opened violent campaign
against the relatives of the late Leo
Tolstoy, especially his. daughter,
Countess Alexandra Tolstoy. In
series Of articles which have appeared
in the Tula Communar and in the
Moscow Pravda objection is taken by
the soviet official journalists to the
permission granted to her and several
other members of the great writer's
family, as well as some of their fol-
lowers, to continue living on his
estate. Yasnaya Polyana.
Tolstoy's house has been converted
by small band of loyal friends and
disciples into TolstoyN museum. of
which his daughter. Countess Alex
andra, was appointed keeper a couple
OF years ago by the Soviet govern
ment. The peasants living in the
neighborhood and in the surrounding
districts still look upon the countess
house as on their old lords. and treat
them with respect, even going so far
as to call Countess Alexandra your
ladyship.' while the local bolshevist
commissar is contemptuously ad-
dressed as "comrade" C'tovaristch"),
word which outside official Com,
munist circles is regarded by the
russian masses as insulting.
This is not all. Many of the Toll
stoy retainers refused to leave the
family when the bolsheviks deprived
it of home and belongings. And now,
in order to remain with the countess
the former servants have evaded the
Soviet decree against hired labor by
enlisting in the staff of the Tolstoy
Museum. AS result, the bolsheviks
are infuriated beyond description
How do Tolstoy's daughter and
relatives live today in Yasnaya Poly
ana?" asks the Pravda why, Just
the same as all princes and counts
lived in the old days before the revo-
luton! Our authorities must put an
end to the counter-revolutiona ac-
tivities of Yasnaya Polyana."
