The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1918-06-13
Of the so-called ruling classes in the

of the so-called ruling classes in the
towns. The Nonpartisan League gave
them an opportunity to shake the
teaches off their backs and believe me
they will do it before they quit. This
is the reason the farmers Joined the
Nonpartisan League and this is the
reason they "Will Stick"
This same ruling class who condemn
the Nonpartisan League have ruled
the State ever since it was organized,
with the exception Of the last seven
teen months, during that time they
have had all the chance in the world
to better conditions for the rank and
file of the people, but they have utter
~ failed in this respect. Their minds
haYe been conferred only on their own
interests. They have no room in their
minds for the common people, hence
they have failed to do justice. They
have been weighed in the balance and
found wanting, for that reason the
reins of government have been taken
from them and left in the hands of
another organization, which we hope
will establish a just and equitable
government. There is considerable
gnashing of teeth over the establish
ment Of the Consumers United Stores
and it is claimed by the opposition
that the farmers have signed the con-
tract with the store company blindly,
but, my friends, you are again bark
ing up the wrong tree; there are very
few farmers who signed that contract
not knowing what they signed.
Business in this State has been
most ruthlessly conducted. It has
been just grabbing proposition and
the farmers know it. The establish
ment Of the Consumers United Stores
Company offered AN opportunity to
the farmers to buy their commodities
at a closer margin than usual and
knowing that they have been paying a
good many hundreds of dollars of
profits to other business institutions,
they were plad to pay another hun
bred dollars to an institution which
was established to buy their commo-
dities at more reasonable margin
than usual. That is the reason the
farmers have joined the Consumers
United Stores Company. I am not
one of those who wish to ruin anyone's
business, but if any business rests on
such poor foundation so that the Con-
sumers United Stores Company can
ruin it, then I say, let it be ruined,
because then there is no need Of it's
existence. I have read some of the
newspapers opposed to the Nonpar-
tisan League and to the stores. What
1 have noted more than anything else
in those papers is the way they as
sumo guardianship over the farmer,
their self-assumed superiority yer
the farmer can easily be read between
the lines. It is evident that those
newspapers still consider the farmers
as ignorant children who need to be
looked after. Well, it is fine to have
such guardians, but I would hate to
have wolf herd my sheep.
I believe the farmers will stick. 1t
is the only right thing for them to do:
We know what we got from the old
gang. Let the same conditions which
have existed under their regime pre-
vail unmolested and ultimately the
common people of this country will be
under serfdom. am member of the
Nonpartisan League because it is the

the leaders who have built up the or
ganization must be all right too. The
League cannot get along without
leaders. An organization without
leaders would be like team without
a driver, but our friends, of the indie
pendent Voters League are in most
instances hiding behind the bush or
barking up the wrong tree. There
are good reasons for the existence of
the Nonpartisan League. For years
the farmers have felt in their very
souls that they have been the goat

Death of Cal Mabin Sunday Evening.

Death of Cal Mabin Sunday Evening.
Cal Mabin, well known Minot
resident, passed away at the home of
his nephew, William Mabin, Sunday
evening at the age of 76 years. Mr..
Mabin had been i'll only since Friday
and his death was due to the infirmi-
ties of old age.
Short funeral services were held
from the Rowan undertaking parlors
Wednesday afternoon and the re-
mains were shipped to the old home,
Lake City, Mimi, for burial.
Mr.. Mabin was born in Melville
county, Penn, and came to Ward
county in 1900, residing here ever
since. He never married.
He is survived by four sisters and
one brother and number of nephews
and nieces who reside here. Mrs. San
ford Barlow of this city is his niece.
Mr.. Mabin was a fine old gentle
man and will be sadly missed.

Can anyone explain why the indie

opted a platform very similar to the
platform of the Nonpartisan League?
If those at the head Of the Indepen-
dent Voters league who wrote the
platform are sincere, then the plat
form is an admission Of those leaders

that the Nonpartisan League platform

it?
Well, they admit that the farmers
have grievances, they tell us that the
Nonpartisan League is all right, but
the leaders of the League are all
wrong. Well, the fact of the matter
is that the leaders have built up the
Nonpartisan League, and if they have
succeeded in building UP an organiza-
ton which is admitted to be all right,
then the only logical conclusion is that

They established themselves on the

Italy and even to Lorraine, and it was
then that the Emperor Otto proclaim

ambassadors, because they did nothing

THE TERN HUN FITS

Since the present war was precipi-

few introduced into the English
language FROM other tongues. while
historic historical references are made
and parallels drawn. Occasionally

which at times il is difficult to answer.

The name was first applied to a
horde Of ravagers who. in the fourth

PLENTY OF LAWS

There are many laws in Alexandria
that are observed more in the breach
than the observance. The following
are few of the things that it is I'M
lawful to do:
Spit on the sidewalk.
Expose fruits and vegetables on the
sidewalks.
Expose any kind Of foodstuffs that
are for sale as parade ground for
flies.
Permit dogs to run at large unmuz-
lied.
Ride bicycles on the sidewalks.
Permit premises and alleys to be-
come Uttered with trash.
Permit stagnant water, weeds and
grass to infest your premises.
To fail to connect with the sewer
if there is one available.
There are many others, but, how
ever, we mention these with the view
of suggesting that before fixing the
blame for present conditions we look
about US and see if we have at all
times observed these laws.
Sanitation is, after all. largely a
matter of individual cleanliness. If
every person will do his part at once
the present situation will clear up
very quickly and we will ultimately
be much benefited by the experience.

SENATOR SWANSON

Not only have the newspapers of
his native state rejoiced over the an
nouncement of the selection Of Mr..
Swanson as chairman of the Senate
naval committee, but papers publish
ed in other cities, especially in the
Capital of the United States, have
been quick to manifest interest in the
action of the members of that most
important committee. The Washing
ton Post, Herald and Star have con-
tanned articles showing their appre-
citation of the Virginia statesman's
services and ability, as they have often
those of Thomas S. Martin, the senior
Senator from Virginia.
For several years the constellation
of Congressman from the OLD Domln-
ion has been exceedingly brilliant.
The members have won their spurs,
and men of all parties realize that
our state has made no blunder in Sc
lecting them as representatives.
The members CT the lower house
from Virginia are among the most
capable and energetic as ever ap-
peared in that body. People of every
sdistrict of the Gid Dominion realize
this, and in nine out of the ten dis
tricts the present incumbent will have
a walkover, as suffragsns prefer TO let
well enough alone.
Unfortunately, however, a contest
has been sprung the old Eighth dis
trict, and Hon. Charles C. Carlin,
whose successful labors speak louder
for him than anything we can urge,
has an antagonist. Although the lat
ter's platform is as a house of cards
(the chronic ISSUE of the farmer, in
whose interests the present incum-
bent has worked early and late) has
been blown into 81 sickly flame. That
Mr.. Carlin has never left stone un-
turned in labors in the interests of
the rural section of his district is
sufficiently known to need no reeapi-
tulation by us.
A sad truth was uttered nearly
nineteen hundred years ago by One
who welded power stronger than
X-cays. He referred to mans foes
being those Of his own household
There is corporal's guard in Alex
andria, all of whom are profiting by
the present Furnishing conditions in
our city, brought about by our Con-
gresham, who pretend to be mimi
cal to him. Let us hope they will
eventually support the man who has
faithfully represented all classes in
his districts for many years. We
prefer to believe they will.
