tax on chain stores and to tax oleo-

farmer. The income tax with a def
mite replacement should also be
adopted so as to lower real estate
taxes on farms and homes.
Legislation of this type can best be
enacted into law through the organi-
cation of the House by the progress
sives with progressive speaker.
Mum Has the Ability.
My choice for speaker is Chas.
Mum of Maple Grove township, near
Osseo, who has served his district
we'll in the lower House of the Legis-
| lature the past three terms and was
just reelected to fourth term. He
| comes from a conservative district but
his being sent back to the legislature
repeatedly shows the esteem in which
| he is held by his farmer neighbors.
| He was born and raised on the farm
which he now owns and operates. He
is a true progressive, labors for what
! is just and right for the masses, has
the ability and knows parliamentary
| law. He is the personal choice of
Governor Olson.
The progressive program can only
be enacted into law through the CO.
operation of the legislative branch
of our state government with the
| chief executive. This can best be ac-
cOmplished from the start with the
election of progressive leader for
| speaker of the House. With the splen-
did endorsement of Governor Olson by
the people it is very essential that
the legislature cooperate with him
| in the enactment of the progressive
program that he has championed and
| for which the voters have so decidedly
expressed their choice.
Therefore see your representatives
before the caucus on Saturday, Nov.
26, and ask them to promote your
| programme program of the people
by selecting Representative Chas
| Mum as the speaker.
