as strongly here as they have in

like them. They realize their fate

the New Deal has reduced the

declared, ruled America.

out 81 names and write only
the one. And what is more,

Hecla, S. D., Sept. 5.-.The sit

hunger.
This % cents per bushel is the
exact difference per bushel, as far
as it goes, between the average
price the farmers received in 1881
OF 90 cents a bushel, and the 81
cents received in 1882. And &c.
100000 is almost $4,000, 900, shoEt
of the total difference in loss in
the one year, between the extreme
ly low price of SO cents in 1881
and 81 cents received in 1882; and
makes no allowance wha' soever for
the losses the farmers suffered
In 1881 when compelled to
sell their wheat at fifty-nine
cents a bushel, and the many
years previous to that when the
wheat has sold below one dollar
a bushel, which is normally a
reasonable price to cover cost of
production, marketing, etc.
A SOP TO PACIFY US
Viewed thus the $6,4OO,OOO is
but a meagre sop thrown to
the farmers in an attempt to
allay their spirit of revOlt
against such aBOmhibIe cen
ditiOns.
In return for this sop the farm
ers are to be compelled to sign
contracts to curtail production for
the season of 1884 to any amount
the Secretary of Agriculture may
demand, not to exceed twenty per
cent. Which means, upon the
basis of average crops and acre
age, a crop in 1884 short 7,36O,0
bushels in this state, which at 81
per bushel (what they should nor
mally receive) is a loss of $780,
600 next year in order to receive a
very minor portion of losses rea-
liked last year, and for many other
years recently past. Thus we find
that the hole in the sack which the
farmers are holding instead of be-
ing mended by the AAA, is ac-
tually being made larger.
RACK tn 1914
Moreover, the AAA in its "Dec-
laratiOn of Policy" states that it
is to "restablish prices to farmers
at level that will give agrieul-
tural commodities a purchasing
power with respect to articles that
farmers buy equivalent to the
purchasing power of agricultural
commodities in the base period.
The base period set is the "pre-
war period from August 1909 to
July 1914"
This is the very period dur
ing which farmers so serious
ly realized their accommodating
predicament that they Orga-
nized the NOnpartisan League
In an attempt to rectify their
wrongs.
In view of all these facts it be-
comes evident that the best that
the government now proposes to
do for the wheat farmers is a
continuation of the farmers con-
dition of impoverishment, mean
while relieving the bankers by
paying their interest to them thru
taxing the people at large 80 cents
( extra upon every 49 pound sack Of
flour. At the same time it at
tempts to draw the wool over the
eyes of both farmers and business
men making them believe that
they are the beneficiaries, and
should "beat upon the high sound
ing cymbals."

One OF the most brazen of these
fellows who are trying to put
binder brides on the farmers and
workers is Charley Kelly, 'the

which occurred when the local
bank temporarily closed its doors

tors had been induced under all
sorts Of promises to sign away
the right to withdraw their de-

iy told an unemployed man whose
invalid mother was dependent on
him that he would see to it that
ne got medicine needed for his
mother while his funds were tied

could rely on Kelly's word, he

THREE DELEGATES

We asked three delegates what
they thought of this statement by
the governor regarding capitalism
this system that has brought us
where we are? Well, they did not
wish to say much. So we shot
another question at them-sup-
pose this present system goes to
hell, as the Governor suggested,
what system would the labor union
and Governor Olson give us to re-
place the old system and how
would you establish said system?
Well, they did not know. But they
seemed to think the old system
could be patched up here and it
would bring US out of this crisis
until the next depression comes on.
LABOR BOSS
The whole convention seemed ~
be domineered by such men as
Frank Storkey, a high salaried of
ficer of the Milk Drivers Union
and he is also Secretary of the
Minnesota Farmer Labor Associa-
ton or Farmer Labor Party. We
know him to be dictator, boss
and double-crosser.
What can the poor farmer, the
renter, worker expect from the
present Minnesota State Fedora
ton of Labor. United States Sem
ator Shipstead spoke, but he as a
Farmer Labor Senator, told us of
no new system to replace the old
capitalist system. Where are they
all at? Storkey is a Farmer La
Dor officer, Shoemaker is a
Farmer Labor Congressman. They
are all fighting each other? One
wonders if, they know where they
are going.
