is to do the bidding of the corpora
tions.
The fight Of the trusts Is being made
alone on Senator Hansbrough for the
reason that he Is the only one that
can do them any particular harm.
They are not putting up much of a
fight on johnson or Marshall. The
reason:is very obvious. Senator Hans
brough is so strong that his influence
is readily felt. He has great power In
the Senate by reason Of his years Of
active service, and the high positions
he holds on committees. His position
as head Of the Committee on AgrIcul-
ture puts him In position to do the
farmer immeasurabIe good and the
trusts that are opposed to the farmer
untold injury If they do not act on
the square.
This Is not the case with other can
didates named. Even If they are elect
ed their influence will necessarily be
slight for several years.. As they will
have ~ begin at the bottom and work
up. Il For this reason the corporations
are moi: making a very strong cam
paign against them but are centering
their fire on Senator Hansbrough.
Now there Is another thing to take
Into consideration on this matter. Do
not think, that you. are helping your
cause i you vote against Little and
for eisIes rshalf ~ johnson.,sTiuls
may ease your conseieneesa little but
|it is not accomplishing the result that
you wish to obtain. A vote for either
LOT these nnea, is Of no assistance to
Mr. Hansbrough nor to Mr.: Little but
|it Is just one vote placed where 1t
will do no good for your cause what
ever. A. vote for Hansbroush Is the
|onIy thing that will accomplish the
full result: -" s,.. ~ r
= The time to; remedy an evil Is before
1t gets too good a start. If you would
protect your own interests now is the
time to do Eit and the polls Is the
place. The: farmers Of North Dakota
cannot afford to let this opportunity
pass to strike blow in their own de-
fence. It's loyalty that calls you to
the battle, you should not be content
even with casting your own vote but
should use all the influence at your
command to get others to do5Ii<eWise.

A WORD TO
THE FARMERS
{ You Wish to Prove Your Loyalty to
Your Champion now is the time---
War on the Rights of the Farmers
by the International Harvester Trust
Are You Loyal to Your Interests?

If the farmers are interested In their
future welfare 1t is time for them to
commence to work for their protection.
The International Harvester trust was
organized in 1902 and since that time
the cost Of the production Of farm ma.
chinery has been greatly decreased
every year, but at the same time the
price Of every piece Of machinery that
the farmers use that this corporation
has acquired control Of has been stead.
lily advanced. .+,.
The binder for example has been In.
creased In price about $1,000 year,
since the International Harvester trust
gained monopoly over these ma.
chInes.. No small concern can manu-.
facture them for if they commence to
do so they are stransIed out Of ex.
istance by this grant corporation.
They are reaching out after every.
thing that the farmer uses, and now
control practically all the. harvesting
machinery. : ,sr y"
+ They are placing about themselves
every possible safeguard to protect
themselves and thwart honest investi.
cation of their methods or legislation
that will Interfere with their monopoly.
I'VE III have chance now to, show our
allegiance to our own interests: Sen.
ator3 Hansbrough has had the loyalty
and courage to oppose this? giant cor.
porakIor ;on,ts the floor offs the senate;
when he knew that by 50" doing ne
would have this power in opposition
to him for reelection. This has proven
true, and they have determined that
he. will not return to continue the
work he has commenced. They have
been: and are; still spending time and
money lavishly lnEtheir opposition to
the senator. + + II: A,. A , -; ~, {
e The farmers Of North Dakota can.
not afford to loose sight Of this Inn.
portant duty Of not only voting for Mr..
Hansbrough's return but by inducing
others to do: so BY every honorable
means. II is really the farmers fight
they being aligned against a corpora.
ton, It is n their power to either place
back In power a man who has spent
over Is years fighting for their inter.
.ests or 70 place; IN the senate as their
representative a man who Is elected
on. the specific understanding that he
