Several people from this place
went to Lesterville Wednesday
evening to hear Gov. Norbeck
who is doing campaign work for
reelection. The Governor, whom
this Editor has had the pleasure
to meet is a pleasant personality,
and withal a good sensible speak
er. In contradistinction from
many another speaker he talks
little, but says much. The way
he ripped Townleyism (mind, not
the good patriotic farmers who be
long to Tswnley's League) was
something that every farmer who
belongs to tee league seould hear.
Your judgement improves by hear
ing both sides of the question.
The Governor said that many pro-
gressive laws passed in No. Dako-
Ia unde. the League regime were
in force in this state before the
League was organized and men,
toned them. From Lestervile
he drove thru Tabor to Tyndall,
where he was billed to speak.
