WHO FOR SHERIFF.

Rodney Salisbury, Sheriff of Sheridan county, has been a member of
the + ". w. and one of the means by which he has piled up his extor-
tionate charges for mileage in this county is the assumption that he has
been continuing his practice of hauling the walking delegates of the l. W. w.
to see that the labor members continue charging the farmers and thresh-
ers the full sum of 5000 per day. He has done it in the past and Il ne
continues a Sheriff of this county there Is every reason u DHneVe II "h
continue.
Just a short time ago one Of the l. w. WIS that came here to Plenty
wood. informed one of the citizens in Plentywood that he had visited prac-
teany every !. W. w. jungles from Texas to the Canadian boundary, and
as far easta as the state of Virginia, and in every ON of these Junges he
heard Rodney Saisburys name and he was extoled and praised as the
hest Sheriff in the United States for the reason he was the only member
Of the l. ". w. that was a Sheriff, and that the wobbies would do all IN
that with his power and influence he could continue compelling the farm
ers to nay from $500 to $500 per day for these l. W. W. transients. This
man went OF TO state that The wobbles claimed they could get away with
ANYTHING under the Sun they wanted to pull in Sheridan county, a thy
had the full protection of the Sheriff.
Oh YES, Rodney is a friend o. the farmer. To such a n extent that hun
dreds of farmers have been compelled to purchase combines to do away
with this high priced labor ard / W. W. trouble, and still some farmers
forget this in voting for Rod.
Some o. or farmers who have not been fortunate enough to be able
TO purchase combines, and in order to get a little profit out of their crops,
and not give it all to these wobbles, have been compelled to have their
mothers. wives and daughters, and little boys, work in the fields for long
bmrs and the farmers themselves have been forced to put in five or six
hours ne day extra in order to save a little money.
Remember these extra hours of gruelng hard labor you had to put IN,
as we'll as the pangs it gave you to have year mother Or little girls
bovs % out and do this work to prevent the henchmen of Rodney Sails
bury from taking away all your profits by charging from $500 to $500
per dav. when you 20 to the polls and vote IN November 9th.

HOOVER AND FARM RELIEF

Hoover has announced that if elected and if satisfactory federal legis-
latDn in solution of the farm problem is not enacted in the coming short
session Of congress-, he will call a special session of the new congress to
take up the subject.
This announcement is in line with that part of Hoover's acceptance ad-
dress wherein he said:
1.-The most urgent economic problem in NJ nation to-day is in agri-
culture. It must be solved if We are to bring prosperity and contentment
onethird of our people directly and to all o r people indirectly"
These words plainly signify MI. Hoovers judgment that the problem
should be taken car of promptly and not be allowed to drag along I'M
necessarily. Indeed, he repeats in essence the words If his acceptance ad
dress. The implication is, that if elected, he would summon congress into
session in April instead of waiting until the following December, the con-
stitutional date for regular sessions.

you about.
l have reclassified more land in
this county every year since | was

other county assessor in the state. |

THE LITERARY DIGEST POLL

The Literary Digest, which is famous for the polls it takes during
presidential campaigns, has now tabulated 273s379 votes. Of these votes
Hoover gets 1750584 or 632 per cent and Smith gets 9S7T9o or oo7 per
cent. Thus in this poll the Hoover vote is not quite two to one.
According to this poll, the following are results in states which may
be considered doubtful: Alabama is for Hoover by 1897 to 1928. Arkan-
sas is for Hoover by 1852 to l1267. Connecticut, which the Smith forces
claim, is for Hoover by more than two for one. New Jersey, which they also
claim. is fer Hoover more than two to ne North Carolina Is for Hoover
by ~ to /; Kentucky by a little more than Ia to ]. Mr.. Smiths own
state of New York will give a heavy majority against him. The figures IN
the pol Of the issue of Nov. 3d, are Hoover 218920, for Smith 1859.
These figures may be considered fair for of them 14O,77O were taken IN
Smiths stronghold in New York City.
The New York City vote is the more important for it s claimed that
Smith will get rs per cent Of that vote. The Digest poll showed l4O'FO FOL
him and 105y864 for Hoover.
These figures indicate that he will lose one-sixth of his 1924 vote in
that city and this will give him q majority, ever in New York City, of a lit
tie more than 10000.
Wien it comes to consideiin ing the electoral vote the figures are rather
startling, only four states 81 far showing for Gov. Smith. These are Geor-
ga, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, with a total of 43 electoral
vote out Of 531.
This indicates that Herbert Hoover may achieve a more overwhelming
victory than any previous president.
Alfred E. Smith is a citizen and a product of the most provincial city in
who has made his mark in administrative work, he remains today essential
ly and inveteratey urban in his outlook. He may know how to govern for
the good of the city populations; but about rural folk and their problems he
knows little. He lacks the understanding sympathy which Mr.. Hoover,
born and bred o. a farm, and a lifelong student o. the farms problems,
possesses in such marked degree
New York is, let is not forget, q great agricultural State, a well as a
State of large cities, of industry and commerce. Its agricultural products
exceed in value those of Minnesota OF Nebraska or the Dakotas. And here
is a significant fact: There are sixty-two counties in New York, and the
JUS campaigns, outside of Greater New York, was four.
The farmers of his own State it may thus be said with assurance, have
today no great confidence in Governor Smith as a newly converted apostle
of farm relief

EXPLOSIVES ARE
 POWERFUL SLAVES
Art Ussd by lea to Accomplish
 Enormous Tasks

Washington. D. C., Feb. 3.-Boom- ing detonations that a century ago could have meant only the thunders of war, are heard almost every day now by the inhabitants of any size- able city. They are the sounds of mans most powerful slaves. explo- siveA carrying on their daily labors of peace for civilization: tearing loose materials for lime and cement, digging out stone for structures and roads. piercing hills. excavating that dams. railways, and factories may grow. The pioneer slowly and laboriously slashed his way through Natures superficial barriers with his ax: with much less effort the modern engineer blasts his way through mountains. tumbles hills into valleys, and recasts the face of the earth to his liking and his need.
 An Age Of Explosives
 Civilization has had it's ages of stone and bronze and steel: of wind and water and steam power. It re- quires taking no great liberties with terms to call this an age of explo- sives. Man blasts out the route for
New Britain herald., 1928-02-03

a highway: makes 1t smooth with stone and cement blown out else where: and all that it may be traversed by millions of vehicles propelled by explosions of gases. Overhead airplanes whir, driven by explosive engines. Man has con- quered the air only since the harnessing of explosions for power. and has never made a practical fly ing machine driven by any other form of energy. By the roadside farmers blow their fields with tractors driven by similar engines, and blast boulders and stumps from their fields with charges of high explosives.
 In cities, our water supplies come through aqueducts and tunnels that explosives have helped to build. Diessei engines driven by exploding petroleum are replacing steam en- zines in factories and ships; and some light and power plants are operated by these highly concen- trated and economical mechanisms. Even steam plants and railways are dependent on explosives, for the coal which drives them is torn by powder and dynamite from the bowels of the earth.
 Mightiest Tool
 Never since man developed his first crude tools - wooden clubs, stone hammers, and the rest-has he come upon a device or a substance comparable in force to explosives. They give him the powers of a demi- god. With them he can come closer to initiating natures forces than in any other way. He can overcome the force of gravity so as 10 hurl projectiles scores of miles. He can

century. The first recorded use to propel missels from cannons was in Florence in 1926.
 Perhaps the most interesting chapter in the history of explosives was written one hundred years later in Southern Tyrol, now part of northern Italy. In the first quarter of the fifteenth century Sigismund. Archduke Of Tyrol. conceived the idea of using gunpowder to blast . better road through the gorge of the Eisak (now the Isarco). This, the first known use of an explosive for q constructive purpose. was a shot that has had might reverberations around the world.
 The explosive type of engine, which has advanced man with giant strides as a power user, depends on substances that are not themselves explosives. These are the liquids gasoline. kerosene. alcohol. benzol, and fairly heavy petroleum deriva- tives. But these explosive sub stances. when vaporized and mixed with air. become rather powerful explosives, capable, however, of be- ing harnessed to turn mans ma chinery. In automobiles alone there are explosive engines in the United States aggregating more than half a billion horsepower. Tractor engines. stationary gasoline engines, and Diessel engines carry the total we'll toward the billion mark.
New Britain herald., 1928-02-03

considering explosives for anmuni- ton. was more than half . billion pounds. Of this, approximately two- thirds was made up of high expio- sives and one-third of black powder. A quarter of the high explosives and s6 per cent of the black powder was used in coal mining. Nearly half of all the high explosives were used in metal mining and quarrying. and the remaining quarter was dtvt1ed about equally between construction work and miscellaneous uses.
 Many obsorbingly interesting services to man are hidden behind the miscellaneous classification. Ex- plosives are used among other ways in channel deepening. to produce "echo waves in the scientific div ing rods'' of the oil prospector, to aid in draining swamps, to blow up levees for emergency flood pro- lection, to fight great fires. to de. stroy the bodies of dead animals. to shoot" oil wells, to send up signal rockets and fireworks, to cast life lines to ships in distress, to break up ice jams, log jams. and icebergs. and to prepare holes for the planting of trees.
 Use Began in TyrA
 Mans discovery of explosives is not definitely known. Records do not bear out the widely held opinion that the Chinese invented gunpowder. Pyrotechnic substances such as Greek Fire or wild fire" were used in the early and middle centuries of the Christian Era to frighten ene- mics or to set fire to their ships. But one of the first definite recipes for gunpowder appears in the writings of Roger Bacon in the thirteenth

even shake the earth itself 70 that his earthquake waves can be detect ed by seismographs hundreds of miles away. When Hell Gate Rock was blown up at New York in 1885 the tremors were recorded at Albany and at Boston.
 Explosives depend sfor their great power on the fact that while 0ccu- .pying 8 relatively small space an tn- stant before explosion. their gases occupy a tremendously greater space the instant after. Gunpowder. the first and the ''tamest" of the well- known explosives exerts, when it ex- plodes in confined space. 5000 times the pressure of the atmosphere or nearly 50 tons per square inch. The "high explosives" dynamite. gun-cotton, nitro-glycerine. and TINT, exert several times the force of powder; and mercury illuminate, the most violent of all, produces a pressure of 200 tons per square inch. The latter finds it's chief use in very small quantities in the form of caps used to detonate less violent ex- plosives.
 Most Sensitive Explosive
 All explosives are dangerous and must be handled with caution: but there are definite degrees of danger ousness. Gunpowder and dynamite will not explode unless subjected to a more or less violent jolt. Nitro- glycerine and TINT are detonated much more easily. The most sensi- tive of all explosives is nitrogen iodide. This substances is so un- stable that it is said that the tap of feather will set it off.
 Even in peace time the United States manufactures large quantities of explosives. In 1926 the total, not
