Consistency thou are indeed jewel,
but thou dost not adorn the diadem
of the nonpartisan press. Judge An
derson, who issued the injunction or
der to compel the withdrawal of the
miners strike. to save people from
freezing to death in the country is
loudly condemned by the league press
as compelling men to work against
their will and term it industrial slav-
cry. But Gov. Frazier issued a pro-
clamation taking over the coal mines
of the state and stating that all men
between the ages of Is and IS would
be drafted to work in the North Da-
kota coal mines if necessary--in other
words these men would be compelled
to work against their will if the gov
ernor so elected. Isn't this also indus
trial slavery and why doesn't the boss
ridden press Of the state get after the
governor as we'll as Judge Anderson.
When Grover Cleveland was president
he used the army of the United States
to keep the mail trains running and
Theodore Roosevelt when he was pres
ident used the forces of the United
States to stop strikes, yet these men
were not bounded to death and abused
like our officials are today for protect
ing the peoples rights. Industrial
slavery under these conditions is far
preferable to the Bolshevism that the
radicals of this country are trying to
put over on the people. No man has
to work who does not want to but any
man who elects to go on strike has no
right to tell any other man who will
work that he cannot. What we are up
against in this country is industrial
anarchy and our governor and his ad-
visers are doing the best they can to
bring it about,

IF not incompatible with the desires
Of the strikers" Anyway brennan
came to Bismarck and was closetee
with The Spineless, and the strike
terms, with which we are III familiar
were submitted to the owners of tht
mines. Just lately DrennanNhas beer
invited to return to Bismarck for an
other conference with The Spineles
One of the terms announced bS
Frazier and brennan was that no lig-
mite coal could be shipped out of the
state. To be consistent, they should
have announced also that no outside
coal should be shipped into the state
This was plainly an attempt to con
troll interstate commerce, over which
the federal government has full and
exclusive jurisdiction, and therefore
was "a strike at the authority Of the
Federal government. They didn't say
how they were going to prevent coal
from being shipped out Of the state
but presumably they would Leave that

There is to be a meeting OF the nom
partisans in St. Paul in the near ~
ture at which time it is limited that q
change in leadership is to be contem-
plated. Real Leaguers are cornlae11c :
ing to fear that the organization is
doomed to defeat if it remains in the
hands of the present socialist leaders,
Hundreds and thousands Of the FARM
ers of the state went into the league
because they had just grievance in
the past at the treatment they had
received from the various legislatures,
and when Mr.. Townley came along
with his wonderful remedies they ma
turally took to it like people take to
spring tonic. But instead of getting
the relief they supposed they were to
get they have been saddled with Boil
shevike state administration, the state
resources and businesses have been
placed in the hands of these socialists
and today the farmers have the fact
staring them in the face that their
taxes have been more than doubled
with prospects of still higher taxes
next year. They are commencing to
realize theyehave been properly stung
and are looking around for some
means to offset the dangers that now
confront them. If they reorganize
under "a new and sane leadership,
elect men to office who will honestly
and truly administer the affairs OF
state in conservative and sane
manner, put the credit of the
state back where it was four years
ago, and give North Dakota decent
name in the union Of states, instead
of having North Dakota alluded to as
the rube state of the union and the
one where the red flag is allowed to
paroding then the people will come
into their own and both farmers and
business men can meet together on
common ground for the good Of all the
people. Glass hatrel and dissention
will never do here or anywhere else,
and that is what we are: getting un-
der this socialistic regime. Let's get
together along right lines

The Nome Tribune last week takes
occasion to roast the Sheyenne Valley
Light Company because Nome was
without lights last week. If the edi-
tor of the Nome paper would wake up
he would have found that it was not
the fault of the light company and
his roast would have been unneces-
sary. The coal situation is RESPONSE
BILE for the matter. Valley City fur
nishes the power to give Nome lights
and the city plant last, week was short
of coal, consequently the street rail
way here, the pool rooms, business
houses, churches, etc., were without
light for several days and the good
people of Valley City were founder
ing around in the snow drifts in the
residential districts in the dark be-
cause we had no light. But we didn't
roast anybody for that. This war has
taught us to conserve and put up with
a lot of inconvenience and to look on
the bright side of life in the dark as
we'll as in the Highland we all did
during those trying days of the war.
Our good neighbor should cheer up,
let a little sunlight into his soul.
throw out his chest and take his place
in the world as booster and opti-
mist. We are not holding the sack
for the light company for any mis-
deeds it is responsible for up to last
week, but for that period they are not
to blame. If you must kick at some
body, kick likeo blazes at our city adj
ministration. They are the guilty
ones-and thew are used to getting
kicks. But, friends, they did just
what any reasonable set of men would
do in coal shortage.

Because congress has not gone
crazy over the Plumb plan of opera
ton of the railroads, Congressman j.
H. Sinclair says that congress is re-
dictionary bunch of legislators and
very vigorously assails that body for
not falling in line for the plan OF
Plumb. In other words Mr.. Sinclair
is greatly peeved because majority
of the congressman do not fall over
themselves adopting these radical
ideas that seem to run in the minds
of the league officials and orators. If
congress is such a reactionary body
and as the gentleman from the North
Dakota Third District Is q member OF
congress why is It ttihat he has to
come back to North Dakota to meet
Townley and Gov. Frazier and tell the
people of the shortcomings of con-
gress instead of remaining in Wash
ington and doing his best to break up
this bunch of reactionaries. We have
noticed no eloquent efforts on Mr.. Sin
clair's part in congress to do things
for his country. The only time we
hear of him doing something is when
he comes here to attend governors
luncheon or something and then he
tries to make political medicine by his
talks.

The voters of Ohio are certainly a
peculiar lot. After several days it
now develops that on popular vote the
prohibition amendment loses by 542
votes. Then the voters turn around
and defeat the proposition to allow
2.75 per cent beer by majority of
29,667; the proposal to defeat state
prohibition was defeated by dry
majority Of 41,849. 1t would seem
from these figures that Ohio is strong
ly in favor of prohibition, yet the vot
ers turn down the federal dry amend
ment to the constitution by about 500
votes. Evidently the voters of Ohio
are mixed on this proposition and did
not know how to vote as the vote on
the other prohibition proposition was
strong for the drys.

The big coal strike was called off
several days ago but we are still read
ing how Gov. Frazier protected the
people of the state by keeping the
coal mines open. Well, that's all
right. For heavens sake let the gov
ernor get little glory-if it is all
hollow-out of his administration.
Goodness knows, there is little else in
his administration to glory about.

The Peoples Opinion editor is try
to camoufage the tax proposition by
saying school taxes is what makes
them high. We admit that school tax
es will boost our taxes in the city all
right, considerably, but that does not
help out the farmer whose taxes have
been boosted out Of sight. If Mr.
Streib wants to give a real concrete
example for his readers to chew on
let him go to the court house and find
out what the taxes on his printing Of
flee were last year and what they will
be this year leave out the school tax
for both years and give the answer.

Notwithstanding the fact that con-
gress with only one dissenting vote
had refused to give Victor Berger, the
Milwaukee socialist congressman a
seat in the house of representatives,
the same Milwaukee bunch of social
lists have again nominated him for
congress to be voted upon at spe-
cial election to be held the nineteenth
day of December. We hope the people
Of that district will snow him under
at the polls, but even if he is elected
the house Of representatives cannot
seat him, so why keep up the farce Of
electing him. No disloyal man is en-
titled to a seat in congress or place
in this country-and he has been con-
victed of disloyalty.

The country is not at war but that
does not put any stop to the multitu-
dinous drives that the country seems
to be afflicted with. 1t is drive, drive
drive for money for one thing or an
other continuously. Wouldn't it be
nice if we could get along for a few
weeks without some sort of a drive
being thrust upon US. The country
seems to have developed a mania for
money drives-guess those who inau-
urated them believe in going to it
while the going is good. There should
be some sort of drive evolved that
would help the people cut down the
high cost Of living:
Judge Robinson comes out in his
Saturday night letter and says that
Mr.. Kositzky is an honest man and
for the powers that he to harken unto
him. The Judge is putting himself in
the down and out club because any
man who has the temerity to come
out and say that anyone who is
against the Townley program is an
honest man is destined to get the ak.
However, we rather like the vener-
able jurist's nerve, to say the least.
We are convinced that the more the
people look soberly into the facts that
Messrs. Hall, LANCER and Kositzky
have been giving the tax payers the
more convinced will they become that
these men are telling. them the truth.
Figures, as we said before, don't lie

treasurer's office-there is no appeal
from that quarter. You may abuse
your local editor and say he is lying

The league forces are having petit
tons circulated through the state ask
ing the legislature that is called in
special session on the 25th of this
month to impeach Messrs. Hall, Lang
err and Kositzky. Of course these pc
titions are being signed by the leag-
uers who are bound to follow the blind
lead of the bosses. We just want to
say that whatever the outcome is of
this matter by the legislature there is
one thing absolutely certain-the vot-
ers of the state will impeach the
whole state administration next June
when they get chance to cast bal
lot. North Dakota is in control of the
socialists, and red card agitators but
the day of reckoning is near at hand
The present outfit in control of state
affairs may be able to control the state
legislature and suspend these men
from Office but the gang cannot con-
troll the voters of the state any longer
and these will register the final de-
cision next June and it will not be a
favorable one to the league leaders.

best hotels at the modest sum of two
or three hundred month in addition
to his salary. If this is not state

The killing Of several soldiers while
parading in Centralia, Wash, on
Armistice Day by l. w. WIS has
aroused the country greater than most
any other occurrence and the outrage
goes to show to what depth these rad
cals will go to further their ends. It
is shameful to have to record the fact
that one of the perpetrators of the
dasdardly deed was lynched by irate
soldiers and citizens, but the doings Of
these red flag artists has aroused the
ire Of the patriotic citizens evidently
beyond endurance We do not favor
lynching by any means-it is some
thing all good citizens should con-
denim to the limit. The people who
took the law into their own hands in
Centralia evidently have become tired
of the weak vacillating tactics en-
ployed by some of our courts and they
figure that justice could be quickly
melted out this way. The government
Of the United States has rounded up
several hundred reds the past few
days and we hope they will continue
the good work until all are swept from
the country by deportation. Every
man who was disloyal to the govern
ment during the war and is still dis
loyal to the country Of his adoption,
should be deported along with the
worst anarchists that ever breathed
the breath of life-we see very little
difference. The one goes to more ex-
tremes of violence to show his dislike
while the other shows his dislike in
more smooth manner. At that they
are equally bad. This country has no
room for disloyal citizens. We need
the room for real Americans and we
want our free air kept from pollu-
ton by these reds and l. w. WIS

this country and it's peace loving peo-
pie Chase them out of the country.
