Bowler discussing his editor with
a Plentywood person some time
ago remarked. 81 know he is
crooked, two-faced and a double
crosser, but l can use him for a
while yet, when we will get an ed
itor. He is down and out, broke
and discredited and can handle
him as long as l can keep him THAI
way. He does not cost us much;
takes his pay mostly in glory. Of
course as soon as We drop him he
will go over to the other side, body
soul and brooches, and spill every
thing he knows-that's his nature,
If he tells how he sold space by
having his printer stool on boot
Logging business men and using
the information as a pry, it will be
distressing"
-
However, Polk & Bowler now
want to get shed of the editor but
fear his squawk. His Maiesty's
scribe has been tipped that he can
not get the printing contract un-
less there is a change. Dolin don't
like the editors collecting copies
of all his printing bills paid by the
county.
Bowler and Polk need the con-
tract to survive, but Dolin needs il
too, and has the advantage of be-
ing a citizen of the county and re-
sponsible for the victory of the re-
publican candidates in spite of the
handicap of Bowler and Polk and
the wild eyed editor who coughed
back the fine money. Even as a
poultry journal the Hurley-Burley
weekly would need subsidy. Burley
thinks his best out is to lure his
editor back into the oil game, sc
he is doing his best.

In view of the fact that there are in elevators
zto'OOOOOO bushels of Farm Board stabilized wheat
and that the Farm Board recently announced that
it would not peg the 1881 CROP the outlook for the
wheat grower is anything but rosy Last wear
about this time the United States was exporting
nearly one million bushels of wheat per week It's
weekly exports now average $4,000 bushels.
Divers rags masquerading under the proud title
OF newspapers will now say that the cause of the
reduced weekly export of American wheat is the
alleged dumping policy of the Soviet Union. But
everybody who even reads the capitalist papers
that serve the capitalists with information on
which they base to great degree their produc-
ton programs, knows that the present yearly ex-
port of small grains from the Soviet Union is
o,5OO,OOO tons below the pre-war total of 125O0
900 tons
Chairman Stone of the Farm Board is wapine
the same fight for crop reduction that Iepge
waged. 1t is clear that he intends to convince the
farmers that it is not in the power of the govern
ment to help them The half billion dollars spent
on this object lesson is not wasted according to
the philosophy of Big Business which insists that
any aid given to the workers and farmers is pa-
ternalism and socialism but help given to the fl
nance-capitalists and industrialists is constructive
patriotism
1t is true that it is not in the power of a can
1talst government to aid the producers 1t was not
organized to help them but to supervise the looting

WHEAT, POOR WHEAT

In view of the campaign carried on by Alexander
Legge and the Farmers Union last spring for
reduction in wheat acreage and continued this
