known as the McNary-Haugen bill
which was subsequently rejected by
the house. The time was all toe
short for an agreement on the substi-
tute measure which would meet with
the approval of the spokesman for
the agricultural interests and the adj
ministration. Several bills intended
to solve the difficulty were intro
duced during the last week of con-
gress but consideration was denied
these proposals with the abandon
ment of a plan for general relief.
Not ever the influenc eof Senator
LaFollette and his band Of so-called
insurgents" could stay the fate of
farm measures. The congress voted
overwhelmingly to adjourn prefer
ring to explain in their home dis
tricts rather than endure a long and
tedious session during the summer
months in Washington. According
to those well informed on agricul-
tural subjects 1.-THE future of con
gressmen and senators seeking re-
election will hinge largely upon eli
matte and marketing conditions. The
statement is made that the farmers
will know the conditions of their
crops by November and their opinion
of legislators will be governed accord
Voting is a matter of senti-
ment. 1t has been customary to re-
gard the farm vote as normally Re
publican but the Democrats say that
1924 is not a normal year politically
and that the campaign will not be a
'cut and dried" affair.
A controversy as to who must
share the credit and the blame for
he transactions of congress is al
'eady developing to an interesting
)oint. The Democratic National COM
nittee in it's free editorial service to
newspapers, claims that ''the bills
which have attracted most attention

JOHNS6V T0 FIGHT
 FOR SOUTH DAKOTA
Hiram Determined to Obtain
 Republican Support

r Pierre, S. D., Mar Reimbursement Of the present national administration and President Coolidge as against the candidacy of Hiram w. Johnson and the issue of individual preferment be- tween Governor w. H. McMaster and Senator Thomas l. Sterling, republican candidates for the United States sen- ate in the March 18th primary. hold chief interest of South Dakota voters in the early stage of the political cam paign.
 These two issues resulted from the action of the republican state propos- al meeting December in choosing President Coolidge as its candidate for the presidency and Governor Me Master for the senate. Johnson sub sequently entered as an independent and Sterling as a minority candidate.
 Two chief issues between Governor McMaster and Senator Sterling were raised by the governor in his open ing address at Highmore, February 4. He criticised the senator for his
 
 the so-called agricultural bloc at Washington and committed himself to this action if elected. He also at. tackled the record of Sterling on the >nestion of adjusted compensation for er-service men and declared in favor of this measure.
 Agricultural relief is dominant note in the national program of all parties in the state. A tariff read iustment more favorable toward farm products, reduced freight rates and the fostering of farmers cooperative marketing associations made up prominent demands in the republican proposal platform, while the same three points were set forth as para mount issues by the democrats. Both parties gave unqualified endorsement to the volstead act.
 In relation to the tariff the demo- crats demand absolute repeal of the Fordney- McCumber tariff act and return to an independent and non- political tariff commission.
 The farmer-Labor party adopted as its paramount national issue public ownership of transportation, resources and banking" while in state affairs they demanded sweeping reduction in taxation and public expenditures, of workmen's insurance act, an adequate and just labor com- pensation law and an old ago pension | law. its proceeds to be derived from | n tex on income.
 Fusion between the non-republican !! clements has become development. l An effort at complete fusion between the democratic and farmer-labor groups failed at the proposal meeting. Pursuant to a resolution adopted by 1 Inc democrats, however, efforts have continued 10 bring about such an alli- anee.
 The outcome of the primary cleo lion on March e5 Is expected to throw much light on this movement.
