JOE DOLINS "CLEAN-HOUsERs"

Joe Dolin of Medicine Lake has decided to put a
county ticket up at the next primary He says it will
be called "Clean House" ticket, named presumably
after the OdorOus of that which appeared In
Roosevelt County some years ago.
Joe is clean houser from away back. The people
of Sheridan County will appreciate the fact that he is
making ticket for them.
Following Joes editorial warning that he was going
to inflict his "Clean House, on an unsuspectng pub
lie there a meeting held in Plentywood,
informed by the Tribune correspondent who is believed
to be Lard S. Olson the finger print expert who
such 'clean" Justice of the Peace.
The people of Plentywood rubbed their eyes when
informed by the Tribune that delegates from each
precinct present at the Plentywood meeting and
that the democrats of fair city asked leave to be
present and cooperate in the Cean House" campaign.
He said that one democrat offered check in three
figures.
There are two democrats in Plentywood. Their
names are ]. j. Gunther and Gus Riba. Draw, if you
can, mental picture of J. j. Gunther Gus Riba ap
pearng uannounced and offering to contribute check
of three figures to the "Clean House" campaign Of
Joe Dolin and Lew Onstad.
Some irreverent souls say that there such
meeting that reported in the Tribune at all. In
stead P. G. Anderson L. S. Olson, Aage Larsen, Ed
Iverson Frank French L. ]. Onstad, Joe Dolin, c. s.
Nelson, Carl Peterson and few met la the
Three Taiors of Tooley Street and called themselves
the republicans of the county. Carl Peterson fav
ored for Clerk of the Court Old l.. ]. Onstad had
big lightning rod protruding from his person.
But the lightning seemed to go in the direction of
George Cudhie. Perhaps Lewis rod grounded and
aged in wood and for that became a non-con-
ductor
But the world is not harsh Lew will have the
dOrsement of the "boys' he met with as candidate
against Judge McElroy. If Lew beats Judge McElroy
he WILL at least have the coveted title of Judge"
fixed to his name.
And that's that.

SMITH, REED AND WALSH

few weeks ago we gave readers the Glow
Town" on Herbert Hoover, of the republican can
dldates Tor the presidency We turn to the other
party OF capitalism-the Democratic wing
This year the Democrats have three leading candi.
dates now looking for the nomination. They are Gov
ernor Smith of New York, Senator Reed of Missouri
and Senator Walsh of Montana All three are national
hgures They are outstanding men in their different
lines.
Governor Smith has been many times chief execu-
tive of the greatest state in the union. Measured by
the yardstick of things they be conceded
that he has been successful administrators man IF
broad sympathy and independent thought. He has
red to find the greatest denomination in state
government and has given his people the advantage OF
trained governmental mind The people Of his state
have appreciated this and have returned him to power
time after time. Al Smith, as he is affectionatev
called, could well be perpetual Governor of New York
the presidential bee did not buzz too loudly in his
bonnet and if his urban admirers, longing for self e-
presslOn did not fall victims to consuming desire 90
see him adom the white house
Senator Jim Reed from Missouri is another candi-
date He is by far the most spectacular candidate
bidding for the presidential nomination If he became
PRESIDENT the people would know that somebody was
In the chair of Washington and Lincoln For Jim Reed
is the kind of who was not hogtied by the cor
rupt wilson machine during and after the war; He
opposed the world court and the League of Nations
flercey that the Wilson dynasty opposed his election
DIS senator from missouri. Reed won't have chance
because of the opposition of the international Bankers
Jim Reed would be too independent man in the White
House.
Then there is the Hon. Tom Walsh. We are all ia
milar with the Teapot Dom affair. The Standard Oil
wanted Doheny and Sinclair removed from the field of
competition for valuable government leases And Tom
put the job backed by the publicity of the Oil
and Copper press. Thus Tom made quite a hero
in the minds of the boobery But there some who
remember his Tory proclivties during the war; his
faherhood of the Espionage Law his General Leasing
act of 1920 under which the Oil interests looted the
public domain his support of the World Court and 9th
Wall Street foreign policies and his lead in the fight
to give the valuable Fahead power sites to his straw
boss-the Montana Power Company.
There is important difference between Al and
Tom. Al believes in setting up state authority tc
operate and develop the hydroelectrc power sites Of
New York state. Tom believes in giving the whole
thing to the Montana Power Company.
The democrats of Montana will have opportunit
of deciding which is the best and which policy
the BEST in May.
We will be there to help keep the Montana Powe
Company and the representatives of the Standard Oi
neutral.

Hawaii may be land of flowers
and exotic pleasures for millionaire
tourists but it is also a province of
the American capitalist empire in
which exploitation of cheap labor pro-
duces a golden flow of dividends. Ac-
cordlng to Honolulu dispatch to the
Wall Street Journal 20 Hawaiian
companies, chiefly sugar and pineap-
pies, paid 1927 dividends totaling
ST., 7OO,243, a gain of nearly $1,000
600 over 1926.
Compared with the great American
trusts the Hawaiian dividends do not
appear startling. But the entire pop
ulatiOn of Hawaii is under 100000,
about equal to the number of workers
on the U. S. Steel payroll
in 1926. The cash dividends of these
Hawaiian companies actually repre-,
sent about sixth of the value of ali
the products exported from the islands
annually and they provide high re-
turn on the capital invested in the
enterprises.
Honolulu Consolidated Oil lead:
with cash dividends amounting to So,
S34, 700, a return of 300 on the pal
value of the stock. If we take int
account the 200% stock dividend o.
1922, the stockholders are actually re
ceiving a 900 cash dividend. Fo,
1926 it was 911a%6 and in 1925, $40

By Scott Nearing, Federated Press
Foreign penetration of China has
been the theme of a great deal of re-
cent comment. 1t is overdone. China
is still Chinese.
How many foreigners are there in
China?
The Chinese Economic Journal estl-
mates that in 1925 there were 336,o4l
foreigners in a population of about
45,000,00O. That IS foreigner for
each l3OO Chinese. In the United
States IN 1920 there was 1 foreigner
for each Z nativeborn Americans. In
comparison with the United States,
foreign penetration of China has
scarcely begun.
To be sure, the number of foreign
ers IN China is on the increase. In
1870 1t was 8O01; Is, 421 in 1898; LA,
754 in 1929; $4,000 in 1920 and 1885,
04l IN 1925 but the chief increases
came before 1919. Since that year the
foreign population in China has beer
almost at a standstill.
Who are these foreigners in China
Two-thirds of them were Japanes;
l218,351 in 1925; a quarter were
Russians; 1921 were British; 9,84-
Americans; 3,739 Portuguese; 3,05t
ermans; 1886 French and ZIG Span
ish. All Europeans combined made VI
only about 10000 of the total Chi
nese population. The japanese ar,
meeting with sharp hostility because
OF their evident imperialist aims, anC
the number of Russians (mostly coun
ter revolutionary Russians) is rapid!
