The Producers News of Plentywood, Montana,
showed up the excess of the Sheridan county levy
for the coming year, and the commissioners
promptly reduced the budget estimates And they
reduced them a szeable lump too When it was
shown that neighboring county with very much
larger taxable area and consequent larger needs
J fer money for roads and other matters that make
mroads on the tax money levied a smaller sum
than the county of Sheridan, the commissioners
changed their mind about needing something like
100000. The Producers News is the one news
paper in Montana that is not owned by boodlers
and eentrered by them, so 1t can speak out and
does. The county in which 1t is published had a
Farmer-Labor administration for some years. and
was getting out Of the red and into decent shape
1t has now had Business" administration for
couple of years, and had il not been for the wide
awake newspaper another excessive tax burden
would have been placed on the shoulders of the
farmers, who have been hard pressed by no crop
last year and small return for what there was
With even absolutely necessary levies it is hard
for the farmers to meet their tax bin every year
The Sheridan county farmers should have the good
sense to give that paper their united support for
1t has probably saved each farmer the price of
ten years subscription at least this year by COM

TO talk to But now he does not

less no happens TO see farmer

Hans cares about now are the Main
streeters and the bootleggers. Isn't

IL funny how the bootleggers got

ELECTED AS OFFICERS

These questions answer them
selves. American wage workers,
federated now for hall a century,
have never taken their trade union
ism so seriously, day in and day
out, as to build up a fighting ma
chine worthy oil their numbers,
their earnings or their individual
intelligence. They have elected to
Office in the labor unions more
orators and adjusters than class
fighters, and meanwhile the
growth of organized capital has
encroached upon the workers
rights both through injunctions
and the defeat of strikes and by
hired treachery within the unions
themselves. In view of the hard
shrewdness and ruthless determ-
nation of organized capital TO rob
the wage earners of their just
share in the product of industry
a share which the use of machine
ry should steadily increase rather
than diminish-it Is surprising
that labor retains any defensive
strength at all.
