l,r, l will tell you about the stores
which they have been organizing in
this state. They sell the farmer a
piece of paper for 10000 which
gives him the privilege of trading
at the store for ten years. and moth
ing more. in other words the farmer
furnished the money for the privi-
ilege of trading at the store for ten
years. Townley and his bunch keeps
the money at the end Of the ten
years, and uses the money during
the ten years as they see Mt Nice
scheme don't you think for Townley,
l would like to start a few stores
on the same plan myself, and I
guess that l am damned fool that
did not get into the band wagon
and reap some of the golden harvest
myself. L have talked TO some Of
the farmers who put their money
into the stores, and they said they
could buy just as cheap at the other
stores, so If they tell you you can
buy cheaper at their stores. take
the assertion with grain of salt.
If they wanted to play square
with the farmers who put their
money in the stores, why don't they
give them a share of the stock in
the store, and let them own it, and
elect their own officers, and reap
part of the profits, then at the
end of the ten years the farmers
would still own the store and run 1t
and still have the privilege of trad
ing at the store. l wish I could
talk to you, there is so much to be
said, but l believe what I told you
will show you how much good they
are doing the farmers Of this state
and how much they have done for
hem.
My advice to you is to stick with
the old parties, and keep away from
this grating scheme called the non
partisan league. never voted dem
ocratic ballot in my life, but l am
going to vote for every democrat on
The ballot this fall, as our only hope
Is to elect a democratic governor, to
save the state from financial ruin
Tor years to come. If l could sell
everything l have in this state |
would certainly do it and move out,
but everything is so up in the air,
that is impossible to sell anything,
as people who have money do not
care to invest in North Dakota after
they see what is going to happen.
l expect to go into an officers train
ing camp, at Camp Pike, Arkansas
about the fifteenth of next month.
Give my regards to my relatives
and friends. Let me hear from you
again.
Yours truly,
(Signed) w. A. earns.
N. B.-Remember the league is
democratic in state, in which the
democrats have control, and repub-
lican in republican states. They
have stolen the republican party in
this state, or the name rather, and
there are only two parties, the
league, and the democratic party.

The non-partisan league paper for
Idaho, called The Idaho Leader"
seems to fill up its columns prin-
cipally on mis-staetment of facts.
If we were to believe all the rot
contained in this ranting clarion of
reform we would surely have little
confidence in our system of govern
ment, for no self-respecting govern
ment would allow such things to
exist on such huge scale as the
things that this appeal to treason"
states are going on every day under
our very noses, The organization
which this mouthpiece represents
has strong appeal for those who
secretly possess pro German tend
encies, for it represents a dis-satis-
fed element that can do an immense
harm under cover of advancing prin-
ciples of reform. After the war
when people have plenty Of leisure
time to indulge in such luxurious
crouch expresser as the nonpartisan
league, there might be some excuse
for its existance, but now our bust
ness is to win the war and let our
little petty and mostly imaginary
injustices renal n to be settled after
Germany has been put where she be-
longs.

HIGHWAY BUILDING FOR WAR
Roads Back Of English Army Built and
Cared for Under Direction Of
General Maybury.

The roads back Of the English army
are being built and cared for under
the direction of Gen. H. P. Maybury,
who was one of the English county en-
gineers and was afterward one of the
engineers on the road board in Eng
land.
Back of one of the British armies
a lieutenant colonel, one of General
Maybury's subordinates, has had
charge of the roads for two years, and
has had from 1000 to $4,000 men work
ing on them constantly. Twenty-Five
or 30 per cent of these have been Ger
man prisoners.
In order to keep the roads merely
passable they have had to use up to
1900 tons of material day. Broken
stone costs $3.50 ton. It isn't ques-
ton of cost, however; it is q question
of keeping the traffic going.

largest farmers organization in the
state, has thrown the full weight of
Its influence against the league.

that road building will proceed as fast
