The article focuses on issues related to the Non-Partisan League. The Minnesota State Federation of Labor voted to organize a labor party and put a full State ticket in the field to contest the November election with the nominees of the two old parties. A fusion of all organized labor and radical elements with the organization already built up in Minnesota by the Non-Partisan League is under way. The League based its appeal to labor mainly on arguments relating to the waste of distribution between consumer and producer. Attempts were made to show the laboring man that if the profiteering of the middleman were eliminated, the farmer would get more and the consumer pay less for food.
