ToW11ley Leads Noble Movement
Woman Answers Anti Farmer Paper With Quotation
President Wilson'S Book, '"The New Freedom"

"The masters of the government of
the United States are the combined
capitalists and manufacturers of the
United States," and "the government
of the United States at present is
foster child of the special interests
and much more of the same kind.
A. C. Townley has surely been call
ed to the work in which he is engaged
and by his adopted methods we find
a solution of the problem how to free
ourselves from the powerful clutches
of the money combine. And you, pre-
tending to be a friend of the farmers,
are fighting their noble movement.
Did ever the farmers oppose your
newspaper editors organizations? And
indeed if they had, you would have
thought it rather meddlesome. Then
why do you oppose theirs? But I un-
derstand. The old gang politicians are
using you as one of their tools with
which: to- break. up this Nonpartisan
league. You might as we'll give up.
All those stunts were tried out in
North Dakota, and all of no avail. The
only thing they did accomplish was to
injure the business of those who tried
them. p.
The Nonpartisan league has had its
test in North Dakota. We therefore
know of what we speak. We have al
ready profited, and will profit more
after the 1918 elections-thanks to
A. c.. Townley, as we know of no one
else who would have been able to lead
us to such a complete victory.

A Good Bunch To Join

If these gentlemen had to depend on
the people to get an Endorsement to
their office, they sure would find they
are not representing the people. They
say that it "behooves every true
American to eliminate all party lines"
This one sentence goes to show that
they do not have one drop of American
ism or they would themselves refrain
from what they accuse others Of doing.
Z would like to say to these gentlemen,
that il they want to join a good, clean
bunch Of true Americans, they should
join the Nonpartisan league. Yours for
loyalty, ]. g. STEVENS.

People Mean to Put Its State Ownership Program Into
Effect, Saws Kelley

WITH THE FREIGHT ADDED. The
railway corporations take their toll
both ways. We intend to cut this
needless expense out We intend to
save this enormous useless expense
now going to create millionaires and
billionaires. eze.-.s:
We intend to erect state-owned e1e-
vators where grain may be stored and
cash drawn against warehouse re-
ceipts, to avoid flooding the terminal
arkets and playing into the hands of
the speculative interests when they
desire to beat down the price of grain
as they do each any every fall when
grain is marketed heavily.
We propose to erect one mill within
the state of South Dakota that the
flour trust can not put out of business.
Our plan embraces the erection of
cold storage plants state or municipal
ly owned for the protection of all the
people Of the state. The state and
the people are synonymous terms.
There is absolutely nothing in the
demands of the farmers Of this coun-
try but what every person within the

poses of the farmers of the
Northwest through the Instrumental

many instances merchants appear to
imagine that the purpose of the farm

undesirable middlemen, and thereby
cause the general impoverishment of
towns and cities. Nothing could be
further from the truth than this.

duce the great majority of all new

In a recent discourse on the subject of
iron deficiency in the blood Of American
men and women. DR.. H. B. Vail, formerly
physician in the Baltimore Hospital, said:
Throughout my experience on hospital
staffs and as medical examiner, have
been astonished at the number Of patients
who have vainly doctored for various dis
eases VIII en- in reality their delicate, run
down state was simply the result of lack
of iron in the blood. Time and again I
have prescribed organic iron-Nuxated
Iron-and surprised patients at the rapid
ity with which the weakness and general
debility were replaced by a renewed feel
ing Of strength and vitality. I took Nux-
ated Iron myself to build me up after q
serious case of nervous exhaustion. The
effects We're apparent after few days,
and within three weeks it had virtually
revitalized my whole system and put me
surprising that millions of people annu-
ally are now taking Nuxated Iron and
physicians everywher ere are prescribing it.
DR.. James Francis Sullivan, formerly
physician OF Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor
Dept), New York, and the Westchester
County Hospital, says: For want Of iron
you may be an old man at thirty, dull of
intellect. poor in memory, nervous, irri-
table and all run down, while at so or 50,
with plenty Of iron in your blood, you
may still be young in feeling, full Of life,

 John I., Sullivan was a credit to pugil- ism, the emightiest factor of them all in the uplift of the sport. And when John L. decided upon total abstinence after many years of drinking. he became to the temperance cause one of its greatest missionaries
 It was tne mighty Sullivan who lifted the boxing game from the depths to the heights. Before Suilivan's day boxing was frowned upon by nearly every re- spectacle citizen. It was regarded as a rough and brutal sport in which no man who had any self resreet would engage. But when john L. made his sweep through the country, using boxing gloves instead of bare fists, the pGDiic began to change it's views. The interest he created in the game soon developed into genuine love for it and in 8 snort time boxing rose to a ranking that 10 other worldwide sport surpasses.
 Sullivan became the champion under London prize ring rules. That style of fighting was more suited than any other to his particular ability. I doubt whether any living man could have whipped Jonn l.. Sullivan under London prize ring rules. He vas maTvelously aggressive, as quick as panther even in the days after he had started to slip, and was superby powerful Those were real as- sets for London prize ring fighter. Mighty strength was of greater value than skill John L. had the strength, but lacked somewhat in the science of the game. Just the same, he insisted upon Marquis of Queensbury rules and made them popular, even though those relations placed him at disadvantage

 That, in itself. is an excellent tip-cff as to John l.. s unselfish love for the sport that made him famous and which he in turn uplifted. Sullivan was un-

GOLF EXHIBITION
 GAMES PLANNED
 FOR RED CROSS
Contests to Be Similar to Those Staged by Chick
 Evans Last Year

Chicago, April 3.-Golf exhibitions by the benefit of the Red Cross and other war funds, were planned on a large scale today by representatives of the Western Golf association. The contests will be similar to those played last sea- son by Chick Evans, national amateur, and open champions. who aided in gath ering s5o,000 for the Red Cross. With the extended programme formulated today, it is said that upwards of $1,000o0o would be contributed by golfers to patriotic causes.
 The plan adopted calls for a series of contests over the courses of clubs which will guarantee the collection of a fund sufficient to defray expenses and leave a balance for the local chapter of the Red Cross
 At todays meeting an offer Of s5OoO was made by the Hillcrest club of Kan sas City for a Fourth of July exhibition and several Chicago clubs made bids for matches.
 Among the players who have volun- teered their services are:
 Chick Evans, Warren K. Wood for merly western champion; Robert Jones' southern champion, and Perry Adair, known as the Atlanta ponies; Kenneth P Edwards, runner-up to Ouimet in the western amateur last year; Miss Alexa Stirling of Atlanta, woman national champion Miss Elaine Rosenthal of Chicago, former western champion, and these professionals: Jock Hutchinson, Glenview, Chicago; James Barnes. west ern open champion, Broadamoor, Colo fado Springs; Walter Hagen, formerly western and national open champion, Rochester; Robert Mcdonald, Indian Hill. Chicago; Phil Gaudin, Onwentsia, Chicago; Gil Nichols, New York: George Sargent, Interlachen, Minneapolis; Geo. Simpson, Oak Par, Chicago.
 It was decided to book matches from June l to October 15, and clubs may arrange for either one amateur and one professional, or two of each class.

The Bird Of Paradise, 7
 At The Jefferson Theater

It is a fine question whether auto suggestion or prenatal influence causes Luana, the heroine of The Bird of Paradise to jump into the crater Of Kilauea in order to appease the wrath of the Goddess Pele. Persons familiar With the old native customs of the Ha- waiian Islands, say that it is both auto suggestion and prenatal influence due to the practice of Kahunaism. which even the missionaries have not been able to wholly stamp out
 The Kahuna is the witch doctor, and the natives firmly believe in his power to make the prayer of death cause the demise of the person against whom his displeasure is centered. Any person who has an enemy. goes to the Kahuna
