Mas" Convention and Jamboree

Some of the money collected
might have been used for good per-
poses, but just the same, it was
money collected under false-pre-
tense. The public was being hi
lacked by some slickers under the
name of "United Front"
Now these same people who
sponsored the Jamboree racket
come out with another hi-iacking
scheme-a new ticket. They know
they haven't got a ghost of a
chance of electing a man. but it is
good racket on which thew have
already been able to collect a lot
OF money from politicians and
businessmen and expect to get a
lot more. Some say Harry Polk
has let loose of $3.50.
This year they couldn't very well
bring in Pat Wallace again to
break up the farmers ticket so
they get some local people to do
it, and some are more than willing.
From Pat they get their advice.
After the poor showing made at
the "mass" convention it might not
be So easy keeping up the racke-
teering, but some politicians and
businessmen, who do not know
what it is all about might fall fol

AT er reports had been circulated
that hundreds, and probably thou
sands of people from all over the
county would meet at the "Mass /"
convention called in the name of
the Holiday Assn. all eager to form
new Cnited Front ticket-what
a farce it turned out to be.
Twenty-three people instead of a
thousand, ga crowd" which later
simmered down to eight who then
formed a Omitted Front" ticket
after adopting program copied al
most word for word from the Com
munist program.
In looking over the people re-
sponsible for this "mass" conve-n
ton l could not help to notice that
it was the same bunch who put on
the Jamboree in the Farmer-Labor
Temple some time ago. Another
so-called united front" undertake
ing, which turned out to be moth
ing but a hi-jacldng proposition
pure and simple. The same as this
new ticket is intended to be.
l have always held that Ray
mond O'Toole was given a dirty
deal by the jury and judge at his
trial, and 1 have not changed my
mind on that point.
But the Jamboree was held fol
the purpose of collecting money
for the appeal of the O'Toole case
Or, that's what people thought il
was held for, and many contributed
their dollar. Some said there wen,
900 at the meeting, although onl,
ninety some dollars were account
ed for.
The case has never been appeale,
And those in charge of the Jam
boree knew at the time that tn
case would never be appealed. The
knew the time for an effective ap
peal had expired, and that an ap
peal at that time would be abso
lutely useless.

new COURT HOUSE
CONTINUED from page y

with the necessities of farmers and
workers; what counts with them is
advertising and money only.
If there was a burning necessity
for new courthouse, l suppose
We would be able to find a way
of getting it, but the necessity is
not so burning. The old shack can
not be looked upon with much
pride, but we have never heard of
anybody yet refusing to take office
on that account.
There was a time when some
one tried to make us believe that
he government would furnish the
money and build US a court house
which we could rent for so much
a year. The idea was not bad at
all. In that way we would have a
new courthouse. even if We could
not pay the rent. But now that
proposition has been turned down,
as we have always haid that it
would be.
We have been under the impress
sion that the county was bonded
to the limit. But now some attor-
ney has figured out that it might
be possible to run the comfy a
little deeper into the hole, if our
people are willing to vote another
bond issue, and if the government
would be willing to buy the bonds.
This gives US that much more to
talk about when we have nothing
else to do.
One point the Herald brings out
in favor of the project is the cheap
labor that could be had at this
time. Working for little or moth
ing is something we have tried now
for quite awhile, and it never got
US anywhere. Cheap labor does
not solve any problems.
A new courthouse is really what
we should have. if it can be built
by local people and good wages
paid, and in such a way that our
children will not be compelled to
pay for it as long as they live.
Sometime we might be able to
,, build courthouses that way! I'm
til then we might as we'll make
the best of it, and try to get along
with the old shack the best we can
