FABLES FED TO
ILLINOIS FOLKS

The carefully prepared statement OF
A. W. YoungQui>t Of Mountrail county
which is printed in an adjoining col
umn shows that the NnnpartiS;,n
League program saved Mr.. Young
quist $l2l.iJ last year. Translated
into other terms the saving on the

NonpartlSan League and leaves him
the tidy sum of $20.:,3 to invest in
prcesnt> for his wife and children.
1t is not surprising that Mr.. Young

pu1uus men who inform persons living
outside the state that the faxes are
"hurniny the heart out Of North Da-
kota." Nevertheless, despite the pub

gentleman claims re Is burdened with

his 4SO-acre farm in Pierce county in
a single year. In 1918 he paid. &C.

taxes, in 1919 $99.O1 but this year he
must dig up $281.G0.

Illinois farmers are congratulated
on their happy lot (big business is
supreme there and papers like the Ur.
