The MiddIeman is the
Worm in the Apple
(By Federated Press)

Summerland, B. Can apple a
day may keep the doctor away" but
unless the fruit growers of the Okla
nagan valley get a better price for
their fruit this year they stand a big
chance of bringing in the bailiff.
Travelling up and down this pic
turesque and most fertile valley OF
western Canada, | heard the same
old story-high irrigation rates and
taXes-thieving commission men and
highbinding freight rates. Men are
giving up their ranches after spend
ing years in developing and improv-
ing them, unable to make a meager
existence. One man told me that this
year he was giving up a 16 acre
ranch that he had bought years age
for $1,000 and had paid all but
$4,000 Of this amount. In Prairie
valley near SUNDERLAND all but 9
fruit growers in the valley were un-
able to pay their irrigation rates and
the government took a first mortgage
on this years fruit returns to protect
the water charges.
1t costs about 60c a box to grow
and pack apples and if the grower
can get from 90c to 81 a box he con-
siders himself lucky. Yet apples are
sold to the consumer for from SIT
OF S2.75 a box and the middle man
pockets from 1000 to 200@o velvet
on each box Of first grade apples. On
second grade or Fancy and c grade
fruit the grower seldom gets more
than the bare cost of picking and
packing. This year despite the facc
that the apple crop will be a third
less than last year, saw wagonload
after wagonload Of edible apples Of
lower grades hauled away to the
dumps or fed to the pigs.
Economic pressure is gradually
forcing the fruit growers of the Ok
anagan to adopt cooperative mar
keting that will eliminate the big
steal of the commission men and the
railway companies on every box o
apples.

HiII Indicted by
Prohibition Dept

hington-Several days ago the
daily papers brought the important
news that the fearless and aggressive
opponent of prohibition in Congress,
Representative Hill of Maryland, had
been indicted by the prohibition de-
partment for violating the prohibition
laws of the country. The matter
brings some interesting questions to
a focus. Hill deliberately manufact-
ured cider with an alcoholic content
of 2% per cent and then invited his
friends and even the head prohibition
officer of the country to attend fes
tivity at his home where he served
this alcoholic cider to his guests. In
that way he compelled the govern
ment or the authorities to take ac-
ton against him and place him under
Indictment Hill did this because he
is we'll aware that nearly all the
farmers in the country not only man
ufacture and drink this kind Of cider.
but that many of them prepare other
spirituous beverages from all kinds
of berries and different kinds OF
fruits. Hill also knows that the pro-
hibition authorities as a rule do not
modest the farmers in the manufact-
ure of and indulgence in these drinks
but that at the same time they do
not exercise this forbearance toward
the dwellers in the cities, toward the
workers in the industrial centers,
where they proceed energetically
against all the poor Volstead sinners
and do not even allow them to drink
a glass of wine or beer.
Hill demands of the government
that all citizens shall be treated alike.
that no exceptions shall be made,
Hill has the correct idea; he main
tains that if these unnatural and ty-
rannical laws can not be uniformly
enforced then it is high time to abol-
ish such unenforceable laws that are
detested by large majority of the
people and consequently lack the pop
ular support necessary to their en-
forcement.
AS an honest and fair-minded man
Hill is using all the power and influ-
ence at his command to have these
laws wiped out and should be COM
plimented for having brought the
matter to head with his cider ex
pertinent.

ALL IS SET
PROGRESSIVE TICKET is ON
EVERY STATE BALLOT
La Toilette Workers Meet With Much
Opposition in Many Sections
of the Country

Washington-Voters in every state
in the union will have the opportun-
ity to vote for La Toilette, as La Fol-
lete electors will be on the ballot in
each of the AZ states.
This is regarded as a Tremendous
achievement because of the great diff
ficulties that had to be overcome and
because of the shortness Of time.
Hundreds of thousands of signatures
had to be secured. 1t was predicted
at the outset by conservative politi-
clans of opposing camps that it would
be practically impossible for La Fol
lette electors to be placed on the 48
state ballots. But it has been done.
Roosevelt, in his Bull Moose cam
paign, was unable to get on the bal
lot in some fifteen states, tho he took
into the campaign with him a consid-
cradle part of the Republican machin-'
cry.
Following the Bull Moose campaign
of 1912 many states undertook to
make it all but impossible for a new
party or an independent ticket to
find place on the ballot. This add
ed to the troubles of the La Toilette
campaigners. 1t is freely reported
from all sections that the great task
could not have been accomplished had
it not been for the wide-flung net
work of trade union organizations.
Here are some Of the difficulties
presented in few of the states, typi-
cal of the situation which had to be
met generally:
In Arizona it was necessary to Sc
cure signatures of one per cent of
the vote cast for governor. Signers
are restricted to those who did not
participate in the primary election.
Connecticut required one per cent
of the last presidential vote and it was
necessary in each case for the signer
to have his residence address certi-
fled. Delaware required $50 names
of each of so counties.
In New York state it was necessary
to secure 10000 signatures and not
less than so in each county in the
state.
North Carolina presented Difficult
ties not only because of the shortness
Of the time but because of the re-
49, via nv AOA ol5 lleiCCt1 IOI ICIl pei
cent of the non-partisan state vote
from the last election.
In California 10000 persons had to
sign the petitions, each writing his
or her name fourteen times.
In South Carolina it was necessary
to get signatures in every election
district. Union men made possible
the successful meeting of this re-
quirement.
The west was the most difficult
section Of the country in which to
meet the requirements The distances
are great between communities and
the time for filing in those states
was shorter.
The achievement has had its great
dramatic side as we'll as its infinite
amount of plain hard work Also it
has had the benefit of the wise gen.
eralship of Senator La Toilette whose
good Judgment has untangled many
difficulties.

the courts had usurped the power to
