LOCAL UPHOLDS LOFTUS AS CHAMPION OF THE COMMON PEOPLE AND CONDEMNS ACTION OF THE FARGO CHIEF OF POLICE. Resolutions of the Glenburn, N. D., local, American Society of Equity: Whereas: the allied monetary inter ests of middlemen are making a con certed attack on th Farmers' Co-oper ative movements wherever they as sume sufficient importance to prove a menace to said interests, and where as in response to the teachings of our society and bur repeated requests, and resolutions adopted at local, county, and state meetings, our membership subscribed for stock in the Equity, Co operative Exchange and in the first combined effort to get free from the extortionate methods of the Duluth board of trade and the Minneapolis chamber of commerce, and whereas, members of the Glenburn Local Union No. 4998 hold one thousand dollars worth of stock in the Equity Coopera tive Exchange and thoroughly know that the real fight is against the co operative selling movement and only incidentally against the present of ficers and manager, because they have proven faithful to the interests who elected them, and, Whereas, we believe that the fight against any Farmers' Co-operative grain selling agency and the North Dakota terminal elevator amendment has just begun, and, Whereas, we have carefully read ac counts of the various State Conven tions in South Dakota, Minnesota and North Dakota and Tri-State Grain Growers Convention at Fargo, in which various attacks were made on the Co-operative Exchange as report ed in the Fargo Forum, Co-operative Journal, National Grain Grower, Co operative Herald and other papers, therefore, Be It Resolved, that we wholly in dorse the Equity Co-operative Ex change as the lawful incorporated company to carry out our principles of co-operative marketing of farm products and hereby express our greatest confidence in the honor, in tegrity and business ability of the present officers of the Exchange and congratulate the board of directors in being able to scure the services of that able business manager, Geo. S. Lof tus, champion of the common people. Resolved, that we commend the ac tion taken by J. M. Anderson, our North Dakota state secretary, in re gard to the unlawful breaking up of the Tri-State Grain Growers conven tion at Fargo, Jan 23, 1914, and con demn all the Chamber of Commerce emissaries, including the Fargo chief of police, in their disgraceful attempt to break up the meeting and inter fere with the. Equity program and, Resolved, that if the Fargo Forum correctly represents the citizens of that plpce we hereafter hold farmers' meetings in cities more in sympathy with our lives and purposes, and Resolved, that we indorse the reso lutions passed by our state delegates at New Rockford, N. D., Feb. 25 and 26, 1914, and Resolved, that we indorse the Man ahan resolution for the investigation of the great market exchange just passed by congress, and.demand that it be thorough and impartial in every way. Resolved, that we advise the adop tion of the amendment to the North Dakota Constitution relating to a state terminal elevator and urge every farmer find farmers' friend to work and vote for its adoption, .and Resolved, that since the Department of Agriculture, State Agricultural Colleges and Better Farming Associa tions are also strenuously working to increase the production of farm lands without any adequate attempt to cheapen the enormous cost of dis tributing such products to the con sumer, we believe that the only relief for the producer is the uniting of all local Farmers' clubs and individual farmers in the American Society of Equity, and we recommend a more vigorous campaign for members than ever before, and be it further Resolved, that a copy of these res olutions be sent to the Co-operative Herald, the National Grain Grower, Fargo Forum, Ward County Indepen dent, Glenburn Advance, The Icono clast and the Minneapolis Daily News with the request for publication.
