the last line, he picked W a pen and
began to write Upon inquiry as tc

Glenburn Farmer Reviews Campaign
Just Ended

B. F. Baker, we'll known farmer
from near Glenburn, was in the city
Wednesday on business. Mr.. Baker
is one of the original members of
the Nonpartisan league and assisted
in organizing it in his community. He
is naturally rejoicing over the Nom
partisan victory and states that he is
fully convinced that the league pro-
gram is going to go thru and that
when it does, much of the opposition
to it will fade away.
eve leaguers will admit that there
may be things in our program that
will be corrected. Some of the things
that we advocate for an Improvement
in the condition of the farmers, may
not work out just as we think and
hope they will, but if such is the case,
we will not lose any time in making
those changes. Much practical good
however, ought to come out of the
league, much that will help the farm
ers and not interfere in any manner
with other classes of business. We
feel that the league porgram ought
to be tried out and we feel confident
that it will. Had the league been
