peace with the national Adninistra-

in January.
The rugged, two-hsted former
sheriff from the historic Evangeline
country Of south Louisiana told the
United Press today that he would
take his seat in Congress un-
burdened by Longs personal ami

Calm Deliberation" His Method
Il am going to the Senate with
the objective of honorably healing
the breach between this state and
the government. I believe more can
be achieved by calm, mature de-
liberation than by fighting.
But my attitude toward the Ad-
ministration depends to a great ex-
tent upon how I am received in
Washington. I am ready and will
ing to go halfway to patch up this
split"
A six-foot, OO-pounder, who
mixed dirt farming with having
and a brief career as a college pro-
fessOr, Mr.. Martin sat at his desk
in his small, unpretentious Office on
the ninth floor of the towering cap
ltol and talked of his general plan
of action.
From a window there was a
bird's-eye view of the raised con-
crete slab where Long is buried in

passes one of these pests of the high
ways, he will see on some of their
faces the expression significant to
"Oh. well | won't be picked up any
way but it won't cost anything to try"
while on other faces is look of
malice if one passes them by. Even
some will lay a suitcase on the road
way so that the approaching car will
have to turn toward the center of the
road to miss it with the car wheels.
This is apparently done to get the
motorist to slow down and maybe give
them lift. Then some of them will
stand on the roadway and trust to the
timidity of the driver to turn out to
pass them and if meeting another car
at the same time. to stop before hit
ting them.
This racket has been Overworked
and the most secure way for the mo-
torist is to pass them up without
blinking an eyelid.

FULL DINNER PAIL"

Apparently the Republicans are get
ting busy on the 1886 national cam
paign with their grass roots con
ferences. An old campaign slogan of
the &. o. P.-the full dinner pail" is
again being brought forth.
OF course everybody wants Il full,
dinner pail and that slogan has
worked in some past national cam
paigns but it may not be so easy
to put it over again. The memory of
many citizens easily runs back to the
days of Harding, Coolidge and especi-
ally the days of Hoover. Actions speak
louder than words and it must be
remembered that the full dinner pail
for all is not an easy accomplishment
when some individuals have incomes
greater than the combined income of
thousand people.
Cut down on greed and monopoly
and there will be better chances for
the full dinner pail all around
Actual votes on the part of lawmak-
ers on net income taxes. Inheritance
gift and estate taNeS-means of
spreading the wealth of the ration
and making for more purchasing
power on the part of the masses
have much greater bearing on the
public welfare than any resolutions
adopted.

COOP GUILD HOLDS
SIXTH CONVENTION
Women Praise Movement as Sponsor
OF Worthwhile and Progressive
PRINCIPLES.

At the sixth annual convention of
the Northern States Womens Cooper
alive Guild held May 25 and 26 at
ClOquet, Mrs. A. A. kastell was chosen
as publicity director. In this capa-
city Mrs. Kastell reports on the splen-
did program of cooperative educa-
tiOnal work adopted by the Guild
convention. Special attention was
stressed on two year plan of work
concerning the sale of cooperative
bakery goods, securing new members
for cooperative societies, increasing
circulation of the Cooperative Build
er, introducing cooperative literature
in public and school libraries, such
as starting cooperative libraries.
The youth and junior work received
the attention of the convention and
this was pointed out as one of the
vital elements i'm the future of the
cooperative movement. Several good

Good Program.
A fine educational program was
given at the Cloquet Cooperative Au-
ditorium on Saturday evening when
musical numbers, both vocal and in

CoOperatOrs believe in fine culture
with their good, practical business.
Brief talks were given by Guilds

women and juniors and a dance fol-
lowed the program.
The Cloquet Guilds were hostesses
to the 81 delegates and some 60 or
more visitors who came from Mime
sofa, Michigan, Wisconsin, and ILL
nois. 1t was apparent that the women
knew how to handle their public and
to make plans for the future. Many
of those in attendance thought the
day and a half was altogether too
short to discuss all the vital problems
as for instance: the work of the
Guild against war and the ever pres
ent liquor evil. There are 55 affili-
ated organizations with total men,
bership of 1926 and there is a Ma
tional Committee which covers other
groups besides the Northern States
Cooperative, Eastern States. Central
States, and the West coast have
Guilds and new ones growing and
coming into existence. The women
praise the sixth convention just held
as the best ever and it is instru-
mental in squirting them to greater
activity during the coming months.
A woman's convention will again be
held in the fall in connection with
the Northern States Cooperative
League Convention in Superior some
time in September. Virginia will be
the convention city for 1886.

MEAT BOYCOTT IS
DUE TO AGITATION
Government Publicity of High Prices
Is Cause of Consumer Strike,
Think StOckmen.

The consumer boycott, or strike
against eating meats in New York
City, which has grown to be factor
of no small Importance in the live
stock market, is the result of too
much publicity regarding high prices
spread throughout the country by
government bulletins and other pres
releases, according to the opinions OF
many stockmen who have been on the
South st. Paul market during the past
week.
A meat-eating boycott is something
that can do material damage to mar
ket prices if it continues or spreads,
says the weekly market bulletin is
sued by the Central Cooperative As
sOciatiOn, farmer-Owned livestock sell
ing agency at South St. Paul. News
of high prices is welcome to prOduc-
ers who have livestock to sell, but it
tends to create an anti-buying senti-
ment among consumers if the news is
circulated in the big cities.
Apparently this publicity has built
up strong consumer resistance in

and particularly Kosher meat deal
ers, have been forced to close their
doors because of the consumer. boy
cCtt on meats. This naturally cur
tailed eastern orders at western mar
kets for livestock, and undoubtedly
has been a big factor in the recent
weakened condition of all markets.
At any rate, damage has been done
to livestock prices, and here is all
that the housewives down east had to
strike about:
Beef roasts at 34c per pound were
1Oc above a year ago.
Chuck roasts at SIC per pound were
10c above year ago.
Pork loins at 33c per pound were
1Oc above a year ago.
Pork chops at soc per pound were
12c above a year ago.
Legs of lamb at 29c per pound were
1c below year ago.
Lamb loin chops at 39c were 13c
below a year ago.
Lamb breasts at 12c were &c below
a year ago.
These prices are the average prices
at the leading chain stores and 32
large Independent meat dealers in
New York City.

It's Mayor Latimer

The sweeping Farmer-Labor victory
day proves that the party is more
than holding its own. 1t is forging
ahead.
This recent election i'm the largest
city of the state was different than
the city election of 1884 in st. Paul
state FarmerLabOr convention and
at which time the Twin City daily
newspapers heaped all kinds of scares
upon the citizens. The platform
adopted by the state convention was
attacked daily and people were fright
industry would be driven from the
state with the FL. party in power.
The platform was turned and twisted
in all sorts of manners. The result at
that time was that Mayor MahOney
was defeated for reelection. But the
Twin City dailies could not keep on
fooling the people and by the time
the state election rolled around in
the fall there had been more calm
thinking with the result that Cover
nor Olson and other state officials
on the FL. ticket were elected.
Now with good and even better
victory i'm the city of Minneapolis
prospects loom for a splendid victory
of the FL. party in the next state
election.
The next city election in st. Paul
may also be different than the last
one. Former Mayor Mahoney is being
talked of as the candidate for mayor
again. If he becomes the candidate
he will likely come back stronger
than ever.
MayOr-elect Thomas f. Latimer is
a man of good judgment. He is calm
and deliberate and has the advantage
of majority of the council being
with him. We bespeak for him and
the citizens of the Mill City a good
administration.

POWER HEAD HITS
WHEELER TALK
Minnesota Power l. Light Co. Pres.
ident Sees False Impression in
Senator's Radio Address.

Calling attention to the latest So
called modification" of the Wheeler
Rayburn bill, M. L. Hubbard, president
of the Minnesota Power and Light Co.,
said: Senator Wheeler in his radio
talk last night attempted to create the
impression amongst the investors IN
the securities of public utility COM
panies that the Wheeler-Rayburn bill.
as now amended, would not prove in
furious to their interests.
apparently this is nothing more
than an attempt to hOOdwink the mil
lions of investors in these securities
and to lull them into a false sense OF
security" he said. by so doing, it
is hoped to remove the tremendous
and ever-increasing opposition to this
measure that has developed through
out the country, brought about as soon
as people realized that the bill ac-
tually contemplated the complete So
cializatiOn of this industry, and would
ultimately lead to the Recommendation
and liberalization of all other indus
tries.

What we have said in the past con-
corning this un-American and most
destructive Wheeler-Rayburn bill still
holds true. No changes that have SO
far been made have overcome these
objections.
