TwIsTER Bn1NGs DEATH

Associate Pross dispatches
Of May 10 described n ter
rible tornado that carried
death and destruction to res
idents of northern Illinois
and northeastern Iowa. There
was nothing unusual in this
dispatch as such tragedies are
frequent at this time of the
year in middle western states.
We mention this simply to
call attention of our readers
to the contrast between this
and farming on our beautiful
stretches of wheat land,
where cyclones. tornadoes
and damaging electrical
storms are never known.
Iowa and Illinois land is
sold as high as $3.50 to $3.50
an acre, yet we are selling
land in northwestern Mon
tana and southern Albert at
$25 and $40 an acre that will
actually outyfeld the best
Iowa and Illinois land in
wheat, oats, rye. barley, po-
tatoes and hay. Better still.
our country is practically
immune from the thousand
and one pests and annoy
ances to which farmers of the
middle western states are
subjected. Farmers who
have moved to our part of
the country from Iowa and
Illinois confend that our win
ters are fniider; that our land
is easier to farm, because of
the fact that there are no
rocky lodges, no stumps to
grub. no hills to climb, no
tale drains to be laid and no
storms that destroy life and
property.
Our low-priced wheat land
win easily pay for itself with
one good crop, and with an
average season at present pri-
ces the net income should
be much more than 100 per

OUR NORTHWESTERN BOLSHEYIKl.

The National Non-Partisan league, at present COM
posed of Northwestern farmers, is organized for political
purposes upon a familiar principle. There. are so many
millions Of farmers and SO many workingmen in the
country. II all can be brought into the league it will
exercise a controlling power at the polls. If all pay SIS
a year in dues the treasury will presently make Mark
Hanna's campaign chest look like a contribution box in
a charity school. &
Objection to this movement rests not so much upon
with the I. W. w. as upon the fact that it Is a new and
locally formidable attempt to separate the American
people into warning classes. In this respect the North
Dakota evangels of suspicion, hate and violence, do not
differ much from the Bolsheviki of Petrograd or their
brethren Of the east side of New York who recently
essayed the conquest of the metropolis.
No one need imagine that the Non-Partisan league
similar undertakings in the past have failed. But the
amount of mischief it may do before it shall have run
its course invites serious conjecture. In the hands of
desperate men it might easily become a menace to many
states and SO to the nation itself. But its chief victims
will always be found in its own membership.
With many different kinds of alien classes rampant
in the Northwest section, there is increasing need of
unity between those Democrats and Republicans who
first Of all are Americans-New York World.
