Socialist premier of Great Britain.

tions. He is out to get the Creigh-

river for them; at least until the
present Grand Jury concludes its
labor.
The Producers News has fire.
quently commented on the ability
OF Corp. Winter to be absent when
the Creighton trucks arrive in
Plehtywood, tho when an enter
prising little pigger starts in to
do business, without properly oil
ing his machinery, the gallant
Corporal is on the scene. This
time the Corporal was reported to
be soliciting the aid of four Will
liston business men to assist in the
Identification of Creighton Bros.
Perhaps the Corporal has photo
of the big scofflaws. That would
help some even if taken by "moon''
light.
This cleaning up" business is
getting a bit stale. Residents of
Sheridan County will remember the
promises-or threats-n1ade by Mr..
Hans Madsen while electioneering
for Sheriff last fall against Rodney
Salisbury, to clean up the county
in three shakes of a lambs tail;
to close up the "piggeries;" to run
the gamblers out of town ano
"Nig" Collins-the noted raiser Of
fighting cocks-out of the county.
But the pigs are still grunting
good-naturedly, if we are to Judge
by the number of exhilarated citi-
zens on the streets, the poker
games are said to be running, and
the well-known and much-advertis-
ed Mr.. Collins is still on his "chick-
en- ranch" doing business as usual
and as cocky as ever.
The present sheriff and his sup
porters told the farmers that "Nig'
Collins was practically running the
then sheriff's office but that as
soon as the I. V. AS got into pow
er "Nig" and his dog would be
limping for safer cline.
But "Nig" can be seen almost
any day on the streets of Plenty
wood, strolling along as unconcern-
ed as bathing beauty on parade
and it is even said that our "prom-
Using" sheriff saluted "Nig" when
ever they happened to meet until
"Nig's" refusal to return the salu-
tation convinced Hans that Mr.. Col
Inns was in no mood for a reap
proachment.
And so it goes. Hypocrisy is in
digenous to capitalist politics, but
the farmers must not grow cynical.
The officials who secured the votes
that put them in office by false
promises will have to give an ac-
count of their stewardship in due
time. The alibi days are not fan
distant.
