PROGRAM FOR THE
NON-PARTISANL LEAGUE
Bv GEO, T, MURRAY.

by NGOs / WI Wv
1t will be remembered that I gave
the names and addresses in my last
article of the sponsors of the league,
and promised to give the Program in
this article which is as follows:
Estate Terminal Elevators, Flour
Mills, Stock Yards, Packing Houses
and Cold Storage Plants.
State Hail Insurance.
Single tax on farm land.
State supervision Of dockage.
Rural Credit Banks operated at cost
for the farmers.
North Dakota farmers lose millions
of dollars each year. We can save as
much of this as our organization COM
pels the middlemen to give up-the
stronger we organize the more we can
keep"
1t is appropriate here to repeat the
precaution to the reader to withhold
your decision as to the inducement
which caused the farmers to sign up
as members of this organization until
you have read all the features bearing
on the subject, as the little "talk"
made by the organizer, connected with
the fact that the farmers know that
they have been Disseminated against
by the legislative body, had more to do
with organizing than the above pro-
gram.
1t is we'll for the voter to keep an
eye on the office-seeker who is willing
to swallow "all" without a question,
because his political patriotism is
measured by his success in obtaining
the Office.
The history of progressives, labor
organizations, and the inexperienced
in politics, in their demands and ef-
forts to better those who had been me-
elected in legislative provisions, is
that they had pointed out the selfish
acts of the specially benefited class,
defeated them for office, and then pro-
ceeded to demand for their own class
the very same selfish principles and
provisions for the formerly favored
class that emphasis had been made
against. Thus they "killed" them
selves politically by their own efforts
on the principle that "two wrongs
make right, Or, in the language of
justifcatio, "They did it too"
Therefore a careful discussion of
the various features, organization, the
execution Of the objects Of the organi-
cation, and the policy pursued is very
opportune. 1t is only the selfsh-de-
| signing who will take exceptions to
, my discussion at this stage of the
game
My next article will deal with the
agreement"

Not An Isolated Case
Many Similar Cases in Minot and

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-12-22

Have you met the t1apper?" The
"f1apper'' is latest of late styles in
girls. She's just sixteen, and. though
she looks very innocent she's really
rather wise. Why she's called the
''flapper" even the "dapper' doesn't
know, but just to live up to her name
she flaps her skirts when she walks,
she flaps her arms when she talks,
her hat flaps, her coat flaps, her ideas
flap about good deal, too.
The '.'fapper'' has just reached the
stage in the rollicking comedy, His
Majesty Bunker Bean" and she is i'm
personated by Florence Shirley, who
is herself "fapper," and she is set
ting the style in pose and in clothes
for all other "fappers" to follow.

GOING TO SKATE, Ell? HERE'S
WHAT TO WEAR

The skating craze which began at
the New York Hippodrome-apd will
end goodness knows where - has
brought in its wake one article of
dress which all women will welcome
the separate skirt which has so
long been banned as "old style"
Like everything else intended for
rink wear, the skating skirts are in
the gayest colors - checks and
stripes and Scotch plaids. One that
caught my eye recently was made
of the popular blanket cloth; it was
mustard color - which isn't pretty,
but it is fashionable-an the belt
and the slanting pockets were piped
with Celtic green. There were three
narrow stripes of green at the bot
tom, but what made it really fantas-

tic was the six inches of Indian fringe
at the bottom.
Another skirt suitable for wear
anywhere with a long coat was in
black and gray checks, and it looked
very much as if it were cut from
grandmother's best gray shawl.
These sport skirts, which are also
street skirts, are made very plain,
with attached belts of the material;
they are invariably ''pegged'' in at
the sides, and every one of 'em have
pockets.

scenes were all enacted in Wis

more state interest.

securing it at such an early
date. The picture was recently

Pioneer.
Fritz L. Carlson, the pioneer
sheep rancher in Bayfield, county,
was in town last week aud the
Pioneer enjoyed brief visit from
him. Mr.. Carlson said that, as
previously reported in this paper,
the feeding of western sheep and
lambs this season did not turn out
proftablv, but at the same time he
is not discouraged, and will again
tackle the western sheep feeding
scheme next year. He said that he
is coufidant OF making the plan work
in connection with the general plan
of ranching, and that he has gained
some knowledge every year that's
an asset to him aud which he is con-
fident he can turn to account in the
future. The western ews brought
in with the lambs this year are what
knocked the profit.

Ashland Team Won

John Gibson's team of bowlers
went down to defeat in the third
game of a series played with the
Elks' team of Ashland. The
game was rolled on the Proell
alleys in this city and was. a
close and exciting contest. The
first two games were won by
Ashland and the last game was
won by Gibson's team. When
the totals were added up it was
found that there was a difference
of SO pins in favor of the Ash
land boys.
Mr.. Gibson us informs that the
contest is to be for five games
and the balance of the series
will be rolled after the holidays.
He has not lost heart but expects
to win the balance of the series.
After the game last night the
Washburn boys entertained the
visitors at spread" at the
Lamoreaux hotel and the best of
feeling prevailed at the gather
ing. The Ashland team was
represented by R. C. Bretting,
