WET CRY HELD SlESCREEfj State Master- Urges Mem bers to use Ballot box On new -Scale MONMOUTH, Oct. 12 A homecoming '. for Monmouth grange Saturday drew . out a crowd et about 50 persons. - A noontime' dinner serred, with master, C. C. Hpjet, speak ing at. this hour. HIb talk was preceded : by some; pertinent re marks by W. J. Stockholm, ex master of Monmouth, grange. Stockhold delineated the present hampered position o the farmer, the enormity of th,e fixed chargea of interest, taxes and Insurance that be is i compelled to meet in comparison with Cthe small re turns available for his produce.' Master Hulet agreed with Mr. Stockholm , that , the farm board was a failure. He quoted a spe cific Instance of wheat transfer, Tla ; middleman, in which in a few minutes the middleman made more money than the farmer who produce the wtheat made from hta entire year's work- plus the cost of his seed and use of his land. - He gave an opinion on the "wet" question, stating that he believed 1U spectacularity was merely a smoke screen to deflect the people's Interest away from vital issues of far : greater im port. r He said further - . Urges use of Ballot "It isn't a question of . which gangster gets the money Daro Joe or Andy Mellon. Four per cent of the population now con trols 80 percent of the wealth of this nation. But the 96 percent of our population hate within their power the control of the ballot box. ; Let us use that 'power. 4 4. ' -The economic issue is the big thing. Let us make the man who has the Income pay . the sort of taxes that will support the gov ernment. Quick changes are not the kind that build for the fu ture. Slow, steady dependability counts most."
