BLACK EYE IS NOT
LUCKY ON AUG . Is

Last year as all OF the people |
know, crops in Sheridan county |
was a failure. Practically all the
farmers were compelled to give a
crop mortgage or sead lien in or
der to farm this year, and the re-
lief was received from the govern
ment and not the machine company
and the government has the Sc
curity for same this year. Last
week the "mopstick holder, door
key packer, and wind TANNER for
the John Deere people of Medicine
Lake started out in the country to
contract grain for their indebted
ness. 1t was immaterial who the
grain was mortgaged to the gov
eminent or otherwise regardless of
seed liens held by the government,
he would pay so cents per bushel,
would haul grain for one and a
half cents per bushel or the rental
cost of hauling. He stated that he
had made arrangements with a
private party who owns a good
scale in Medicine Lake where they
weighed, graded and docked the
grain. He agreed to hold the grain
in bin until spring if the farmer
wished. He went so far as to ex-
plain if the farmer was caught IL
assisting him to steal the grain
from the government he would for
felt back the grain to the farmer
or make matters right with the
government who holds the lien o,
mortgage. But l suppose if you
were arrested by the government
officials through the county sher
iff your place of abode would b
the penitentiary. The wheat gon
and the organizer of this govern
? ment steal or the organizer Of tn
government conspiracy would 81
free although the leader of the
t deal or steal.
One hundred bushels of wheat a
so cents per bushel is $50. Thi
amount would be a grand larcen
charge and a legal penitentiar
sentence for the offender. Their
is also a penitentiary sentenC
connected with a deal for sellin
mOrtgaged property. My but til
1 farmers are crooked. So it woul
= be up to "man Bakewell' to d,
termine which case this shoul
r come under and it would deper
whether you were an econon
in Lacquer, Republican or a radics
re red.
II This penny-ante John Deere ma

it obligation" and he is going
nv have this grain because we are o
IN ligated to them on a certain del
err He wants their money in the for
be of contracted grain regardless
he how poor your crops are and y
n can live this winter if you CO
le but contract first. He does
if know whether a man is suppos
of to feed his wife or not if he
is obliged to pay the John Dee
Ie- people of Medicine Lake. The re
list son he does not want this grs
handed to the elevators, natura
- the elevators are compelled to h,
this grain for the seed lien of
/. government and not give it to t
TX golden text obligator. This m
trys to show you that his illei
IL, contract is necessary and even
err compulsory and will call you b
of names if you don't contract
an once. This man puts me in M
Ter of hard, sudden winter, he sta
out like lion but before the s
for son is over he will limp In like
Tas lamb. He was very successful
len the 18th of August and contra
7as ing grain and the 18th is not
rst lucky day either. He got one bl;
put eye and we suppose a promise
a few bushels of grain. / WI
925 this article because I am the
1er compromising foe of the fie
vas that crush human hearts, shor
old lives, leave in want and allow
foe to sow the seeds that prod
cry the harvest of misery for farm
Ter, and tears and sorrow for the VII
old family. Through this contr
in system it would be the harv
Ken that brings the curse and the d
sdi- geon would be the destination.
'lin is a sin sometimes to steal
Tas yourself but a greater sin to s.

ger does not exist. No doubt
