EDMONDS, Mgr. 5 PROGRESSIVES AFFIRM Continued from page one) so completely in the hands of the electorate that the deliberate popular will may be reflected alike in the mak ing of the laws and in their adminis tration and execution. "Our opponents, hostile to self government, declare that this doc trine is dangerous and revolutionary and that the machinery of govern ment must be of such character so far l'emoved from the people as to yield, if at all to the popular will very slowly and after long delay This difference in principle forms the basis of the issues of this campaign or Labor Should Get First Consid eration "On the economic side the differ ences between the progressives and their opponents are equally clear cut We hold as fundamental the proposi tion that productive labor—whether it is of the hand or the brain whether it is on the farm or in city—is entitled to receive as nearly as possible the full value of the serv ice which is performed. We also hold that the prime motive of every form of industry should be service, with just compensation for all those who contribute to its promotion, financ ing, management and operation "The position of our opponents on the other hand, as proved by their record on all economic legislation, is that the producers in industry and agriculture, shall receive the least practicable portion of the product their toil, and that the prime pur pose of industry should be the amass ing of the largest possible profits for those favored few who control indus try. "It is this philosophy which has made it impossible for our opponents to conceive any effe ive remedy for the condition of agriculture or for unemployment and the other evils which the workers of the cities subjected.'' to are ROYAL K. MEEKER RESIGNS Harrisburg, Pa.—Dr. Royal K. Meeker, head of the state department of labor, has resigned. He was form erly connected with the international labor office of the league of Nations ,at Geneva. Prior to that he was United States commissioner of labor statistics from 1913 to 1920 by ap pointment of President Wilson. ,y\." THE KALEIDOSCOPE By I. C. McCUMBER As announced, "Mac" started on.a tour. And "Mac" took that tour. He happened to travel just a little bit farther. In fact, he went some fif teen hundred miles into a country that is not met up with every day. If it is, then the hypocrites have nothing to say about it. Why should the hypocrites aay anything but "hallejuh" o Portions of Canada are "dry." In passing through Toronto ques tions were asked of a very high offi cial as to the best place to stop for the night. Following his direction, we arrived at a city just as a terri fic rainstorm broke, 9:15 p.m. Pre senting the official's card, to prove our worthiness, we had "lubrications" for the inner man as well as for the crank case of the motor. This lubri cation was clandestine, but winked at by the enforcers and the people. Hallelujah! 0 The Ralston Paint Co. Two hundred miles and then another oasis. One hundred and twenty-eight miles more and Mon treal. "First chance," remarked a man who stood on a front porch of an inn. Oh, boy! Such ale never had the opportunity to pass a parched throat. It responded nobly and dif ferent hands grasped the steering wheel. o Montreal: 11:15 p.m., Eastern time. Two hours before the "pubs closed. And there we were, eats and liberty, with a portrait of King George looking at you, smiling his approval upon those who were not saying amen in the hypocrite corner The La Corona hotel had its full quota of men and women who were spending good American dollars for a brief respite from those who pray for the other man but neglect them selves—the hypocrites. "Yes, we will send it to your room. The blue room, yes? How many bottles?" o 108 North Third St. Phone 426 Up with the sun and waiting anx iously ^or the mystic hour of 9 a. Why mystic? Simply that at this talismanic hour the commissioners as sume their duties and free men and women may enter, call for the brand they desire, and depart with one quart wrapped in a very presentable manner. "Why cannot I have several quarts?" asks the citizen. "You may have as many as you like," responds the affable clerk, "but you cannot buy more than one at a time. Take this one out to your car and come back for another. This we did several times, and found that the money we obtained from our traveler's checks was worth par, having feasted our eyes upon a storehouse of hallelujah! o Taking our purchased prizes to our hotel, We arranged them to the end that upon entry into the United States, the hypocrites at Washington and elsewhere would still be able to say amen and hallelujah vociferously and sanctimoniously. And thus, from the domain of King George to that of President Coolidge we traveled, and once again into the land of hypo crites and the hallelujah vociferators o Chagrin! Yes! Then we discover ed that contraband might be purchas ed quite as cheaply as in the realm of King George. Many hundreds of i i a k e i miles of lake front and river fronts the St. Laurence river—afforded eas|r ingress and exit with portable liquidi. Had we arrived with a shipload df portable liquid we might have given it away within starting distance, but as it was more than a hundred gal* Ions of gasoline had been consumed to go where liberty still flourished and as our only satisfaction could come from sampling that which we had paid for legitimately, none waa given, sold or broadcasted. It was purely for medicinal purposes, as the hypocrite states when he informs his personal physician in the United States that a little fermented corn juice will take from him that chilly feeling as he prays for the soul of .the other man and forgets his own. o PLUMBING, GAS AND STEAM FITTING PHONE 1065-Y SEWER TAPPING 1014 Central Ave. Estimates Given Not one intoxicated person seen in fifteen hundred miles of government* regulated sale of potable liquor. Not one smashed car or motor accident. How different in "dry" United Statei. Limousines, coupes, touring cars and flivvers, junked and smashed because large profits were being taken in sup plying infernal stuff to those who had the price. Glory, hallelujah! The home of the proverbial skinflint and hypocrite. PROGRESSIVES LINE UP TEXAS FOR LA FOLLETTE By International Labor News Service. Dallas, Tex.—Leaders of the La Follette and Wheeler forces in Texas have ignored the internecine strife here and gone calmly and systemat ically on their way. They held a rousing state convention, nominated their national electors and their state executive committee, and completely organized for the coming battle. The progressive movement is being? launched in thirty-one districts and organization is rapidly being push ed in all of the 252 counties of the state. District chairman and organ izers are working steadily and earn estly at their tasks. Reports indicate a willingness to listen and to learn. Outlying territories are being can vassed and work pushed among the farmers who are feeling the hard grind with the prices of cotton held down by the gamblers until it hAp passed out of their hands. Indianapolis, Ind.—A. F. Bentley, state chairman of the La Follette Wheeler ticket, in a statement isued says that the sweep for the La Fol lette-Wheeler ticket in Indiana is be yond expectations. He said the de mand for speakers and campaign lit erature and other campaign work was so great that the office was swamped and that present finances were inade quate. As a result he has issued an appeal for additional funds to aid the work in Indiana.
