people can be speedily drained away !.
These visionary projects are to be
submitted to the judgment of thu peo-
Pile. The referendum, that grand de-
vice for safeguarding the people, ID
to be eyaded if possible, by passing
all measures ~ emergency bills with
q two-thirds' vote. The farmers
might wake up if asked to vote mil
lions away, just as they showed great
hssitancy in passing constitutional
amendments thus making it neces-
sary for the Legislature to ignore the
Constitution.
How has the North Dakota farmer
been hypnotized? BY being told in
flaming language that he was being
robbed every year of fifty-five million
dollars by the Minneapolis Chamber
Of Commerce wheat trust. !" This
beautiful fiction has made SO deep
an impression on him that he has
helped the League to its seat in the
saddle and cleared the way for the
wild ride. !.
Only few weeks ago the farmers
Of North Dakota were led to complain
bitterly Of the Minnesota wheat grind
ing system and to demand Federal
system that would relieve them of al
legged exactions. They got what
they demanded. And now they com.
plain more bitterly Of the new grades
than they did of the old. They see
that they were iill-advised. Will
they never learn to distrust the dem
agogues?
The cooperative store is one Of
the new devices for farming the far
mer. A few years will demonstrate
that the old and tested methods OF
merchandising are the best all
around. Meanwhile, where does the
money go that is paid in by farmers
for shares in cooperative stores
money that gains them no real share
in the management thereof?
So the wild ride goes on toward
bankruptcy, with the farmer left to
settle the ruinous bill. Will he wake
up in time to head of the free boos-
tiers?

SAILOR WRITES
Glenn Schlangen Writes To His Par.
ents From Cuba.

Jan. %, 1919.
Dear Mother and ALI:
/ have few minutes of leisure so
will try and write you letter. We
have been very busy since we landed
here, but we have the Admiral as our
guest SO that accounts for the way we
have to work. Everything must be
done just so, and look just so. We
have moved down the coast of Cuba
about $50 miles from Watanama Bay,
where we were at first. We are now
at Quacanayaboi Bay, near the city
of Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz only has
a population Of about thousand peo-
pie. We have no gotten shore leave
since We struck here. don't know
whether we will get to go ashore or
not.
When We we're at Watanama Bay
they let us go ashore a couple Of
afternoons, but there was nothing to
see. Some Of the boys walked three
or four miles and did not find any
thing but a cocoanut grove. They
filled up on cocoanuts before they
came back. ] and few others walk
ed over to mission fort that is built
in the ground at the north Of the bay.
It is surely lonesome place; those
boys never get to go anywhere but
have to stay right at the fort all the
time. Some have been there two
years and have never been away. 1t
is not large fort-just as marines
and two six-inch guns.
1t sure is hot down here and they
call it winter. l sure wouldn't want
to be here in the summer.
How is everybody and everything
at home? How are the cattle doing :?
l wish Germany would hurry up, and
that they would get that peace treaty
signed. Farming beats this job all
to pieces.
Well, this is all for this time; will
write again as soon as l can get an
other chance.
Love to all,
GLENN.
