What Is he going to tell them if they
ask about the stories printed in the
newspapers about the extravaganza Of
the North Dakota state officials while
travelling? What is he going to tell
then when they ask him about thar
Nj account for six days room and

~. MANY NEW POSITIONS
And the farmers down there will
probably ask him-they will say. we
notice In North Dakota they have Gre
ated a lot Of new positions. new Off
ees during the last session of the legis-
lature. I suppose the head OF your
state government is doing all he can for
the returned soldiers.< suppose they
are appointing the returned soldiers to
these positions that have been ere
&ted. What is he going to tell them?
II he tells the truth he is going to tell
them out Of II or IA appointments
made during the last month or so there
wasn't>a single soldier appointed to
any OF these positions applause
~ THE PATTERSON LAYOUT
IL he tells the truth some more he
would say there, wasn't anyone in
North Dakota able or competent
enough to fill some Of those offices that
We're created during the last, session
Of the legislature. They had to 90 out
Of the state and import men to fill
these Offices. (ApplauseD Suppose
they ask him about the political condi-
lions up here, about the love feasts
they had down here at the Mckenzie
hotel and Patterson's hall. Suppose
they ask him about the old line poll
ticians gathered there around the
table with Mr.. TOwnley and others.
Suppose they ask about the laws draft
cd In room 4OS in the Mckenzie hotel,
introduced in Patterson's hall and vOt-
cd Oh over in the Northwest hotel.
Suppose they ask about some Of these
old timers that we have been fighting
Tor years being OH the state pay roll
now. ] have got some Of the copies
Of the Leader here showing you how
they used to fight some Of those poll
ticians and now they are sleeping in
the same bed politically with Mr..
Townley. What is he going to tell
Them! Ii he wants to tell the truth
he would say that Hall. LANCER. Olson
and kositzky didn't attend any of these
love feasts that were held down there
last winter In the hotel, and if he
would tell the truth some more he
would tell them that these men smelled
rat and stayed away from there, ana
now because they think different than
Mr.. TOwnley and some. OF these leaders
they are called towards, fools, crooks
and traitors, and to get rid of them
they have got to be laid on the shelf
and their regulations have got to be
ruined. That is what he has got to
tell them If he tells them the truth.
(Applause.)
This 100000 can he spent for pur7
poses that the people of North Dakota
will be proud of In the future Sup

Will offer that as on inducement to
the district that Makes ,ilc best show
Ing IN scholarship and attendance, and
award, a, $4,000 school house to each
district for the first 10 districts max
Ing the best showing Wouldn't that

MOVED OUT OF DUNN COUNTY
Senator Liederbach informed me a
short time ago that 50 families moved
out of Dunn county last fall. Let's
try and keep what people we have
here: try and keep them before we
spend lot Of money in, getting other
people here If this $2OO,OOO had been
appropriated to help needy settlers out
for another year it would have been
money well spent and we could have
induced them to stay another year anil
try it once more. They are telling YOU
whole lot about the administration
bill. That Is the bill that makes a
1lgurehead out of Miss Nelson. Over
