FARM BUREAU DRIVE
GETS 200 MEMBERS
Nearly FOrty-five Percent of
Membership Secured Are New
Members Says Sheldon

Nearly two hundred Farm Bureau
members were secured in two weeks
following the work Of the four Farm
Bureau fieldmen and an equal num-
Der of assistants in eight townships.
Nearly fortyfive percent of these
were new members. Very few of the
old members will drop out on the ex-
piration of their membership on jan
uary first, it is reported.
This indicates a considerable in
crease in the membership in the coun-
ty. The delinquents in the 1928 col
lections, according to Chas. Neitzel,
the secretary, are comparatively few.
In numbers there is strength, and
this is being felt all over the nation
through the growing power of the
Farm Bureau.
One feature of this work now in
progress is the establishment of a
township unit organization in each
township as soon as the work is fin
ished The Farm Bureau being a
family organization includes every
member of the family. Programs of
interest to each member of the FAM
lily will be conducted by the member
ship in each township regularly, if
possible, in the future.
The women's work is given prom
inent place in the organization by the
selection of woman for vice chair
man in each township, whose duty it
is, besides the regular duties, to head
up the women's work in the township.
This organization procedure is pre-
pairing for the net home project for
the women to begin next surinp

Registration Of Voters
Misunderstood By Some

There has been some misunder-
standing on the registration Of voters
which was held in Redwood Falls
October 9Th. The registration was
held for the purpose of getting a
check of the new voters of the city.
Any one who is over 81 years of age
and who has lived in the state 6
months or more and in the voting
precinct 80 days or more previous to
election day is eligible to vote. The
fact that the voter, if he can qualify
in the above rules, didn't vote at
last election does not void his vote
at the election on November 9th.

daily struggles of the working mass
es. He was realist in the Marxist-
feminist sense of the word. The bour-
geoisie& were driving the masses into
the imperialist war. Ruthenberg re-
piled: fDown with the Imperialst
War"
There was an election campaign in
Cleveland. Ruthenberg said to the
workers: snake this election count in
your fight" Ruthenberg did not suf- /,
fer from parliamentary illusions. He
was not a victim of parliamentary
cretinism. In April, 1912, he said:
eve are not in the business of
electing mayors. The election of
mayor or any other party official is
merely an incident in our work. 1t
registers the increase in our strength
and that is about all"
By 1920 Ruthenberg's estimate of
the official Socialist Party theory of
capturing power by the ballot was
this: ''The Socialist Party emphasizes
the participation in elections and the
election of certain officials. It had
become more or less a vote-getting
machine to elect certain persons to
public office rather than an organi-
cation which sought to bring about
fundamental changeNof theSsocial sys-
tem."
AS Bolshevik Ruthenbere always
kept in the forefront the main object
i've of the Communists in the class
struggle-to revolutionize the minds
and struggles of the masses and to
build a powerful Communist Party to
lead the workers to final victory. In
all his numerous activities in the daily
struggles Of the workers, Ruthenberg
never forgot that the primary pur-
pose of the revolutionary working
class movement in the United States
is to overthrow American capitalism
and to establish a proletarian die
tatorship.
AS the years go by and the Ameri-
can revolutionary movement of which
he was so much part broadens and
deepens among the American work
ing class, proper appraisal will b.
made of his place in the American
labor movement, and the quality Of
his leadership will become more pro-
nounced. But he will not only be a
part of the revolutionary traditions
Of the American labor movement. His
incompatible services to the cause Of
the emancipation of the workers Of
the world have made him part Of
the traditions of the worlds proletar-
iat. Owe deeply grieve with you at
the loss of Comrade Ruthenberg, lead
