THE WHEAT BELT REBELLION
The radical political twister in Minnesota has passed on,
leaving Magnus Johnson high and dry in the senate and
the wreckage of the Republican and Democratic machines
of the state in its wake, with the result that seasoned poli
ticians in Washington are looking forward, we are told
by Robert T. Small in the Rochester Herald, "to the most
chaotic presidential campaign the country has ever
known." "The Minnesota election is what may be called
part of an agrarian revolt," believes Senator Moses, of New
Hampshire, chairman of the Republican Senatorial Cam
naign Committee, who sees "disaster if this move spreads."
Moreover, this Republican senator believes, after first
hand observations in the middle west during the Johnson
Preus campaign, "the revolt will spread like smallpox into
at least five adjacent states," and one of its results will be
"a formidable third party" in the coming campaign, says
Literary Digest.
Already, reports a Wic hita correspondent of the Balti
more Sun, "discontent is general throughout the middle
west, but in Kansas it seems to be a lap or tw,o ahead of
Minnesota." "Low farm prices" is given as the main cause
"and the business men in the smalltr communities, whose
trade has been 'shot to pieces' by curtailed purchasing
power, are in the same humor as the farmers." "Xo one
can tell what may happen before this movement is halted,"
observes Representative Wood, of Indiana, chairman of
the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee, who
agrees with Senator Moses that the political revolt fanned
into flame by the Johnson victory will spread over the cen
tral west. 1
Negotiations are already under way in Minnesota, says
a St. Paul dispatch to the New York American, "looking
to a consolidation of the Farmer-Labor and Democratic
parties in a determined effort to1 wipe the Republican party
off the map in Minnesota."
While Senator Moses, in his pilgrimage, found much of
the discontent due. to the low price of wheat, he also as
cribes much of the farmers' troubles to taxation, for which
he finds the state, county and municipal authorities largely
to blame. Said the senator on his return to Washington:
"I can't help thinking this dissatisfaction is going to
spread. 1 was in five states in the west and I talked to a
great many people. My conclusion is that we have not
heard the last of this thing by a long shot. In the territory
that's likely to be affected by this movement the Republi
cans next year will have to fight for senate seats, in Idaho,
Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Oregon, Minnesota, Nebraska,
Oklahoma. South Dakota. Montana and Wvnminn-. All
of these seats, except one in Montana, are held by sitting
Kcpuimcans. Jt does not take any gated mathematician
to see how readily we can meet disaster if this move
spreads."

PIERCE SUPPORTER
NOMINATES BOOTH
J. E. Hunt, of Portland, but form
erly engaged in business at Condon
for several years, wrote a letter to
the Oregonian a few days ago in
which he suggests the name of Sen
ator R. A. Booth for the Republican
nomination for United States sena
tor. The letter, which is of consid
erable interest in view of the num
ber or hats belonging to aspirants
for the senatorial toga which are be
ing tossed into the ring, follows:
During the political campaign in
Oregon last year a very great wrong
was committed against Robert A
Booth and his fellow highway com
missioners by many largely aggra
vated and almost libelous charges
brought against them of inefficien
cy, waste, etc., and I regret to say
that I "joined the rabble" in these
charges because of my partisanship
for a candidate for governor whose
political affiliations wero contrary
to his. Now in the light of subse
quent reliable information given the
public I fel that such vicious and
unwarranted attacks Bhould be ac
knowledged and apollgized for to Mr.
Booth and his fellow commissioners,
both by those who conceived and
those who uttered them.
All of the members of the com
mission from the date of its forma
tion to the date of Mr. Booth's re
tirement were of the highest type of
honorable and constructive men In
our midst and their successors are
no improvement on them. The re
sults of their activities (the great
highway system of the state) , will
be a monument to their wisdom.
skill, judgment and honesty for ages
to come. Mr. Booth, having been
made the center of the attack against
the commission, showed his super
iority over most men in his devotion
to his trust when he agreed to retain
his office (which carried no salary
or emoluments) for some months at
the beseeching solicitation of the
man who had most publicly made the
Infamous charges against him.
Now as a recompense to him I sug
gest that we nominate and elect
Robert A. Booth as United States
senator at the coming election and
I assure you we will be represented
in Washington by the best equipped
man for the office in this state. I
knew him in three sessions of our
legislature at a time when money by
the thousands and political power
and pelf at the maximum were al
most thrust upon the members, and
Robert A. Booth emerged from it all
free from the remotest suspicion of
Its contaminating Influences and in
statesmanship he had but few peers
and was always found upon tho side
of the decent, law-abiding element
of society in the legislation enacted.
He has had many years of public
life since then and is now better
qualified for successful service in
the United States senate than ever
before, and I hope someone quite
prominent In politics will come forth
as n leaner in such movement anil
we will make last year's democratic
landslide appear like a deserted
brickyard when the votes are
