Said Left Gilstad in an appraisal of
the Late governor:
81 have been asked the question
many times, and have asked it my
self was he an idealist, a real
believer in all that he professed, or
was he merely a willing opportunist,
riding a vehicle to personal power?
my own opinion is that he was
essentially a sincere crusader for the
underdog, who earnestly wanted to
see better things for the common
man; that he mixed that feeling with
the instincts of an acute and ambi-
tious politician who loved politics as
great game; that he would utilize
any reasonable means to gain the end
of power and position"
What will history say Of Olson?
He will be remembered as piO-
neer in the movement for a better
America. Before Olson came upon
the scene there was protest and
grumbling on the part of the agrarian
west, but the farm revolt never got
beyond the protesting stage. Olson
dramatized this revolt and related il
to the problems of the city worker
He crystalized sentiment that had
been forming for years, gave it en-
thusiasm, inspiration, coupled with
the practical political leadership ii
needed for success.
At the same time he synthesized its
philosophy. Before his time, persons
who were against the present system
did not know what they would sub
stitute for it. Olson gave their pro-
tests a radical direction, showing
them that reform was only a pallia-
tive, and that without new economic
order depressions would constantly
recur, war was certain, and social Sc
curity impossible.
He popularized and dramatized eco
Monies, held up to ridicule and scorn
the defenders of the old order, showed
how a new order was not only possible
but inevitable. That the party be-
came radical with the courage to ad-
vocate a complete new system of pro-

duction and distribution was due to
Olson's direction.
History will say that this was his
greatest accomplishment. And when
the Farmer-Labor party realizes its
ideals nationally and the dreams OF
Floyd Olson become actualities. men
will remember him and say, "This
great man saw the light and pointed
the way. He did not live to see his
people enter the promised land, but
his vision directed them on the right
path, his courage started them on
their Journey"
Farmer-Labor party and the liberal
movement of America? Was he the
whole party and will the party fol-
low him soon to an untimely end?
For months Olson's enemies knew
that he was i'll unto death and laid
their plans accordingly. They de-
cided to bury the Farmer-Labor party
with his body. To accomplish this
they built up a myth OF inter-party
strife, encouraged jealousies between
different leaders, and tried to thwart
the will Of the rank and file by run
ming Independent candidates.
Olson's illness and death have soli-
dified the party. Even those within
the party who were critical OF some
of his actions-the matter of appoint
ment-are determined to carry on in
the name of Floyd B. Olson so that
the ideals of the leader can be real
lied. These ideals will now become
holy crusade.
Although Olson was the spearhead
of the party, he never claimed to be
anything more than the voice Of a
movement which was greater than he
and which would have attained sue
cess had he never lived. He was
modest. Speaking before the 1882
convention, he declared, 1.-The Farmer
Labor party is greater than any single
man in it. 1t alone has the power to
accomplish the ideals we stand for;
it alone can carry on, bringing peace
and security to humanity years after
we have passed away"

State Capitol News
BY A. l. HARRIS

Now that Floyd B. Olson has passed
to the great beyond, people are ask
ing: What kind Of a man was olson!
How will history treat him? What
does his death mean to the future OF
the Farmer-Labor party OF Minnesota
and to the liberal movement Of Amer
lea?
It was perfectly natural that one
in public life, so gifted in oratory,
possessed of such magnetic person
ality and a keen sense Of practical
political values, should have been
called an opportunist by his opponents.
Floyd Olson's personal friends al
ways knew that he was an idealist
determined to do his part in helping
to bring about an economic order
which would give to the millions OF
toilers in the city and on the farm
a greater degree of comfort and hap
piness than they now enjoy and a
larger and more equitable share in
the wealth which they produce. These
friends knew that his radical utter
ances came from the soul, an outcry
against the social and economic injus-
tices of today.
When Olson spoke as radical he
was speaking not as politician but
as a crusader for a cause. He knew
that such utteranceS could do him
no good politically, but would subject
him to bitter criticism and abuse. 1t
is no exaggeration to say that no man
in public life in the history Of Mime
sofa had ever been subjected to the
abuse and vilification as had Floyd
B. Olson. He took it all as a matter
of course something to be ex-
pected . and went serenely about
his tasks.
1t was a fine gesture for political

Journal to set the record straight.

The death of Olson means a new
alignment of leadership. 1t means
that the party will depend more on
itself and less on one man. 1t means
that what started as a movement OF
the people is still a movement OF the
people, strong. confident, and sure.
Those who hoped to bury the move
ment with Floyd Olson's mortal re-
mains will taste the bitter fruit of
disappointment.
The passing of Olson as it affects
the national liberal movement is OF
great Importance. 1t was in Mime
sofa under Olson and the Farmer
Labor party that social security first
became political issue. 1t was here
that the youth problem first found
effective leadership and sympathetic
understanding. 1t was here that the
first moratorium on mortgages was
declared. 1t was here that political
leadership demonstrated that the peo-
pie could be freed from the domina-
ton of the two older parties.
Just as Olson pointed the way In
Minnesota so the Farmer-Labor party
of Minnesota has been pointing the
way for the country. Had Olson lived
he would unquestionably have been
national leader. But the movement
he started is already on its way. All
over the nation Farmer-Labor organ
izations are being formed. Pennsyl-
vania, Washington, New York and
points in between have their divisions.
The work of great man for the
masses is continuing. 1t will con-
tinue and succeed. BY 1910 it will be
potent factor in national affairs.

Payroll Taxes For Social
Security to Affect Many

Bitterly attacked and Stoutly
defended in the last hours of the
recent national political cam
paign was the social security act
under terms of which several
Redwood Falls firms employing
more than eight persons are al
ready indebted to the federal
government while more will be
affected by the old age assistance
part of the act after January /.
Briefly, the social security act,
as now in effect, works as fol-
lows:
During the present year, every
employer in the land employing
eight or more people has been
subject to tax equal to one per
cent of his total payroll. This tax
will be due and payble January
l, 1887. Purpose of the tax is to
provide money for state unem-
ployment insurance funds. The
federal government will return 90
per cent of all money collected
under this tax to the states pro-
viding it, where these states have
unemployment insurance funds.
If they lack such funds, the Fed
eral government will keep the
money and administer the job it
self.
This tax will be increased by
one per cent next year, and an
other one per cent in 1888, reach
ing a maximum of three per cent
of all payrolls, to be paid entirely
by employers.
That is one phase of the social
security act - the employment
phase. The other phases have to
do with old age insurance.
The tax for this starts January
/, 1887, and will amount to two
per cent of all payrolls. Half of
this will be paid by employers
and the other half by employees.
maximum taxable income of an
individual is $50 per week) This
tax will rise slowly and reach a
top of six per cent in 1949, three
per cent of which will be paid by
employers and three per cent by
workers. All of this money will
be retained by the Federal gov
ernment and will be used to retire
workers at the age of IS.
Thus, when the maximum is
reached, the social security tax
will total nine per cent on all
payrolls, with certain exceptions
such as agricultural and domestic
labor.
1t is obvious that the tax will
bring in vast sums of money.
Estimates say that in 1937-when
the total tax will be four per cent
of payrolls-revenues will exceed
81 900, 100000. Yield for the fol-
lowing year will be close to
81 400, 100000. And when the top
figure is reached, it is anticipated
that $3,000,000,000 a year will
flow in.
