!, Two weeks from tonight it will be
all over but the shouting The Non
partisan league which has dominated
state affairs for the last two years
will have been confirmed in power
by the North Dakota electorate, or
it will have been rejected In either
event, the effects will be far-reaching.
Another decisive victory for the league
in North Dakota will be looked upon
in other states where the organization
is striving for foothOld as an en-
dorsement of the practical application
of the league politics. Defeat for the
league will mean that it has failed
here in North Dakota, where 1t has
operated under the most favorable
conditions, and nothing, is SO fatal as
political failure.
Next Monday North Dakota will
have it's first opportunity to get a
definite line on what the results may
be two weeks from today. The Mimi
esota primariesswill; be held June II.
The Nonpartisans have a complete
state, congressional and legislative
ticket in the field. Minnesota is doing
q heap Of working about the league.

The newspapers have just woke up,
and their editorial and new columns
indicate that they are badly scared.
Should the league carry Minnesota
and there are, even among the worst
enemies of the league. many who ad-
NIT the possibility. it may
mean victory in North Dakota
ten days later. Should the league
suffer a decisive defeat in Minnesota,
vt will cost the Nonpartisans at least
10000 votes in this state, and 10, 200
votes are very likely to decide the
battle between Steen and Frazier If
the league loses the governorship, it
must acknowledge defeat, even
though it elect every other man on
it sticket. And if Frazier should 60
down, there is very great probability
that Kositzky, Olson, the league can
didate for state treasurer; Macdon-
aid, and at least one of the league
nominees for railway commissioner
will 60 with him. 4E
Naturally, much interest in North
Dakota will center in the Minnesota
primaries. Minnesota has much
larger vote to swing, and its popula-
ton is not so preponderantly rural
as is North Dakota's. The league,
however, has made a strong bid for
the organized labor vote, and is ex-
pected to show much strength on the
iron ranges, where disaffection with
the present form of government has
meen common for several years. When
Minneapolis will elect socialist
mayor, none can say with any GER
tainty that it will not give the
leaguers majority. Lindbergh, Nom
partisan candidate for governor, is
expected to pull heavily among the
Swedes. Minnesota unquestionably
will not give the league the landslid
lit had in North Dakota two years ago,
but it will bear watching.

WITH THE EDITORS
THE MANS THE THING

The republican party in North Dakota is
split. The Nonpartisan league is in power and
depends on the republican voters to give it two
years more in Bismarck The present state off,
Gals renominated are standing on their record
and expect consideration at the polls. The Lin
coin league republican candidates are making 'loy-
atty" their slogan. Win the war first, then take
UP state and local issues. 1t is hardly fair to
accuse the majority Of the farmers of the state
of disloyalty because a few Of the leaders are
socialists. The great majority Of the farmers are
loyal to the government, and have subscribed lib
orally to Red Cross work, and Liberty loans It
is coming down to the simple question as to who
is the best qualified man for the office regardless
of party politics. The voters are more and more
beginning to observe, read and think and judge
a candidate by his character and qualifications.

For the present Minnesota is the

Farmers alliance. The league is
seeking to capture the governmental
machinery Of Minnesota as 1t did In
North Dakota two years ago.
Loyalty Issue Injected. -.
The loyalty issue has been raised,
and the league is under attack from
many quarters. 1t is difficult with
the primary fight at blazing heat to
gather how far the anti-loyalty at
tacks upon the league are involved
with politics. Here and there organ
izers and officials of the league have
been arrested and indicted and in
some cases convicted on charges or
disloyalty and Of spreading doctrines
hostile to the military and naval policy
of the United States. Townley himself
and Joseph Gilbert, state organizer,
are under indictment in Martin and
Jackson counties. The cases will not
be finally disposed OF until after the
primaries.

the league throughout has upheld the

MORE WHEATLESs THAN EVER

The United States department of agriculture
has announced its latest wheat crop statistics, tell
ing of wheat yield far in excess of that of 1917
and better than the avertge yield of other years,
1915 alone excepted.
All this is encouraging. ..s =.
But it should not encourage any loyal Amer
lean to eat wheat. .. ...- e..
There are important reasons why we should
consume less wheat now than at any time since
Food Administrator Hoover first asked for wheat
less meals, wheatless bread and wheatless days.
The biggest of these reasons is: Our wheat
supply now is lower than it ever has been at this
time of the year. Reserves of wheat in the United
States are nearly exhausted. The visible supply
is down to the unheard of level, only 1,146000
bushels. year ago at this time we had 28, 1885,
600 bushels in American warehouses;
The wheat now being cut in the middle west
and the wheat that already has been harvested
in Texas and Oklahoma has not been threshed. It
still stands in shocks in fields, awaiting the COM
ing of the thresher. Then it must go to terminal
markets and from there to -four mills. That will
take weeks of time. In the meanwhile we have
but q little over one million bushels of wheat,
about one bushe to every 100 persons in this coun-
try.
And of our small store we MUST continue
giving wheat to our allies!

BOND SLACKERS
CALLED TO ACCOUNT
COUNTY COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
GOES AFTER THOSE WHO TAKE
LESS THAN QUOTA

Two men who had not taken their
quota of the fourth Liberty loan were
called before the county council of
defense last night to explain why.
Frank Clarke, wealthy retired farmer
who has been acting as special police
man in Moscow, was the first man
ION the carpet" Mr.. Clarke stated
that he owns $50 acres of land worth
at a conservative estimate, $100 per
acre, and house in town which cost
him $1,000 and he has $500 in the
bank and does not owe a dollar. He
had taken $3.50 of the third loan, had
taken none of the first or second and
refused to take his quota of $500 of
the fourth loan. He took half of it
($4O0) and thought that was enough
He announced that he "would not go
in debt to buy bonds" The committee
voted unanimously in favor of requir-
ing Mr.. Clarke to take the full quota
assessed against him. Several mem
bers of the council thought it much
too low.
Sigman Coleman, who acknowledge
ed that he owns $50 acres of land and
a town residence worth $3,5O0 and
has $1,000 in the bank and owes no
debts, had taken none of the first,
second or third loans and only re-
Gently took S100 of the fourth loan.
His quota had been fixed at $40O,
which he refused to take, but offered
to take another $100 worth of the
fourth loan. When the committee an
nounced that his quota had been raised
from S400 to $500 Mr.. Coleman, who
occupied the witness stand" turned
a sickly greenish yellow color and
after gulping few times almost
shouted: "My God, men 1 can't do
that. l just can't take that much
In checking up Mr.. Coleman's
wealth Gle refused to give any in
formation as to the value Of his land
and the committee had to approx
mate the value which was finally
placed at $40 per acre, which was re-
garded as very low it was decided
that Mr.. Coleman's assessment of
$500 was too high and it was placed
at $500. He protested bitterly against
this assessment. Mr. Coleman claim
ed he has given $40 to the Red Cross. |
Mr., Clarke took his full assessment |
this morning, making $500 that he has
taken of the fourth loan and $3.50 of
the third. Today he is enthusiastic
ally helping the committee to round
up" others who have not taken their |
full quotas.
Ivan Williams, driver of dray,
was called before the committee for
having made, derogatory remarks
about the Red Cross. He was severely |
and told to be more care
full in the future.
