PAGE TEN ‘ P Alberta Farmers Enter Politics Nonpartisan League of Province Pledges Aid to. New Movement—Platform of Can ARMERS ° of Alberta, Canada, have fired- the first gun in a campaign of political action at a recent convention in Medicine Hat. At the same time the annual meeting of the Canadian Council of Agriculture reaf- firmed the farmers’ platform as set- ting forth the principles and policies for the national welfare and progress. Despite lack of railways running north and south and the fact that the roads were in poor condition for au- tomobile travel, 168 delegates, repre- senting nearly 2,000 farmers of the Medicine Hat constituency, attended the convention. : President H. W. Wood of the United Farmers of Alberta outlined the causes which led to the decision for political action. When the organization was formed, it avoided taking political action, but now that it had through its 10 years freed the minds of its members from political party prejudice, he declared, he felt it able to build up a party of the people. The keynote of the convention was sounded when Director C. H. Harris .declared: “This is a meeting of the farmers and farm women of Medicine Hat constituency who are dissatisfied with professional politicians.” Feel- ing against professional politicians ran so strongly that it was determined that a candidate must be chosen from the membership of the organization and be a bona fide farmer. The selection of candidates was left to a future convention. Co-operation of the Nonpartisan league in the new movement was pledged by J. C. Buck- ley of Gleichen, president of the Al- .berta League, who said every force at ada Council of Agriculture * jts command would be used to further the new movement. Every candidate must immediately after his nomination sign his resig- nation, which shall be placed into the hands of a committee of 21 electors with the understanding that a failure on his part to advocate and defend by voice and vote the principles laid down in the platform of the ICanadian Coun- cil of Agriculture shall be good and sufficient reason to justify the com- mittee in calling a convention to annul the nomination or, in the case of an elected member, place the resignation in the hands of the prime minister of Canada. The following resolution express- ing the sentiments of the members of the organization, who were members of the Nonpartisan league as well, and indorsed by Mr. Buckley was adopted: : “Whereas, the Nonpartisan league has been very successful in maturing the farmers’ demand for independent political action; “Therefore, be it resolved that we invite our Nonpartisan members to throw in all their resources and influ- ences with this body so as to preserve unity of action.” The farmers’ platform, reaffirmed by the Canadian Council of Agricul- ture, urges a league of nations, pro- poses direct taxes of unimproved land values, a graduated personal income tax, a graduated inheritance tax on large estates, a graduated income tax on profits of corporations, the latter to be based on the actual cash invest- ment, rather than on “watered stock,” public ownership of public utilities and extension of co-operative agencies in agriculture. Pay for Dockage N. D. Law Will Save Farmers Thousands on Grading Payment for dockage of value will be one of the results of the grain® grading act passed by the recent North Dakota legislature. This law, it is believed, will save the farmers of the state thousands of dollars. The law also provides for uniform grading of grain which must be enforced by all elevator managers. Heretofore, grain concerns operat- ing in North Dakota have not only through their organization set their own price on grain, but arbitrarily made the grades. Besides this, they assessed the farmer from b5 to 20 pounds on a bushel for dockage. That is, the farmers virtually gave the dockage to the grain dealer, paid freight on it to the terminal market, and bought it back again as feed, thus paying twice for the same material which they raised in the first place. This system has resulted in a tre- mendous loss to -farmers, who have had no recourseexcept to install high- priced cleaning machinery. Under the new law, which fixes uniform grain grades, the foreign grain will be paid for at its market value. In an ordi- nary year, this will save enough to every farmer, it is estimated, to pay all the increase in taxes. A North Dakota farmer who shipped 1,118 bushels of No. 1 dark northern wheat, was given a dockage of 12 per cent when graded. Its sale through an old-line company would have netted $2,489.91. The shipment, however, was sent to the Equity ter- “minal elevator in St. Paul, where it was cleaned and the dockage paid for- at ‘the market value. ' The farmer received for 962 bushels of wheat, $2,338.12; for 87 bushels, 36 pounds of flax, $315.51, and for 8,430 pounds of screenings, $20.58. His entire check was $2,724.21, or $284.30 more than he would have received from the old-line company. : With a prospect of a bumper crop in North Dakota in 1919, the farmers of the state will save through this new law this year alone many thousands of dollars. WOULD SEND TAFT LEADER ; . Allen, Mont. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: It was with much interest that I read the letter of C. E. Creighton of Spiritwood, N. D., in the Leader. I learned from it what to expect were I to make a shipment of that kind. I also read Swift & Co.’s reply to Mr. Creighton in the Leader wherein they deny that they are. responsible for discrimination in the price of Mr. Creighton’s hogs. There is much to learn from the reply by Swift & Co. It is gratifying to note that they are reading the Leader. I wonder if a few copies of the Leader sent to ex- President Taft would not be in order at this time. JOHN F. MORGAN. SINCLAIR FAVORS SUFFRAGE “In spreading the gospel of world .democracy let us have real democracy in the United States,” Congressman James H. Sinclair told the Suffragist, a woman’s magazine, when hé was asked his attitude toward the suf- frage amendment which will & be brought up before the new congress. Congressman Sinclair is quoted in the Suffragist with several other mew members of congress. North Dakota congressmen all favor the equal suf- frage_ amendment, and women are de- - pending on their support for the pas-° sage of the bill in the house.
