Nonpartisan league have sustained the
action of the national committee il re-
electing a. G. Townley to the position
Of president Of the organization. The
unusual interest ia the matter is well
shown BY the fact that out Of d MEM

nearly 100000 voted. Ninety eight

The vote is q remarkable endorse
ment Of the management and policy
Of an Organization the leadership Of
which has been made the special OBJ
ject Of attack by the anti-farmer
forces. Unable to attack the principle
Of farmer organization Or the splendid
program outlined by the organized
farmers, the press and the politicians
could do nothing but vent their spleen
on the League leaders. The members
have now conclusively shown by their
votes that these tricks to disrupt the
League were without effect.

81, THING ABOUT TRACTORS
Tractor School Will Help All Who
Are Interested in Power Farming.

A tractor school is to be held in the
motion picture house at Willow City
on February II and 18th in charge OF
Diepholder Bros. I. n. G. dealer, are
furnishing tractor and other equip
ment to be used in the school.
This is rare opportunity for trac-
tor owners and all who are interest
ed in farm power. You will get some
valuable first-hand information on
tractors. A tractor is not a compli-
Gated machine but there are a great
many more things to know about a
tractor than some Of the ordinary
farm machines. If the owner is to
keep the tractor running properly ne
should understand it thoroughly. It is
very important that all tractors are
kept in good condition, especially IS
that true this year.
IF the operator understands his
tractor he will be able to prevent much
trouble. He will also be able to get
more power from his fuel and to keep
the tractor running the maximum
number of hours. It is to the advan-
tage of the tractor owner to attend
the tractor school and learn about the
underlying principles of tractor con-
struction and all the little tricks in
tractor operation and care.
The tractor school will be absolute
ly free to all who care to attend
There will be no fees or charges fol-
any of the instruction. All material
will be furnished free. There will be
nothing offered for sale and there
will be no selling talks. The school
is conducted purely for the benefit OF
those interested in power farming
If you cannot attend, be sure and
have the man or boy attend who oper-
ates your tractor.
Every owner Of a tractor or engine
is invited to attend this school. Make
your plans now so that you can spare
the time to be at the school. 1t will
be worth your while.
Don't forget the date. Plan to come
and learn more about tractors and
engines. The school opens promptly

3tary Baker declares Stevenson has
never been either an officer or an en-

Bring Boys Home.
The reasons for continuing the
struggle in Russia, as given ovt by
our state department, evidently have
not satisfied Senator Hiram johnson
Of California. In making a renewed
demand for withdrawal the senator
said: .
eve have engaged in a miserable
misadventure, stultifying our profes-
sions of friendship for the Russians
and setting at naught our promises.
We suffer the odium and the infamy
of undeclared warfare.
"Bring home American soldiers; re-
sumo our own democracy. Restore its
free expression. Get American busi-
ness into normal channels. Let Amer
ican life, social and economic, be
American again."
The senator also declared it GRIM
inal policy to starve the whole Rus
sian people as a means Of getting the
better of the Soviet government.

by the Siberian dictators, who are
supported by our bayonets, is a fur
