these men who have been instrumental
in robbing them. +
/ have been for the last three years,
advising Farmers Elevators to hire a
farmer, who is in sympathy with their
work to run or operate their elevators,
in preference to a so-called expert in
the grain business and against them.
And I am pleased to tell you that
many of the Farmers Elevators have
taken my advice and have written me
after testing it out, thanking me and
say it is the proper way to conduct
their business. Nine tenths of the
complaints coming from farmers when
marketing their grain, is caused by
some buyer who thinks it a smart
trick to beat farmer.
The Grain Inspection Department is
trying to rid the state of the crooked
buyer and with the assistance of the
grain grower they can be driven out,
but we can't get rid Of them without
the aid of the farmer and it's up to
him to do his part. So, I say to you:
It is good to know that the farmers of
Omemee have sense enough to hire a
manager who is interested in their
program and their elevator. Wishing
you a Merry Christmas and a success
full New Year, I remain,
Yours truly,

Mr.. T. T. Thronson,
Manager Farmers Elevator Co.,
Omemee, N. D.
Dear Mr.. Thronson:-
I wish to congratulate the farmers
elevator at Omemee, on their choice in
selecting a manager that is not afraid
to speak out in meeting. I don't know
when I have enjoyed reading a letter
more than the that was published
in the Courier-News of Dec. 10Th, in
reply to a "Moses Wanted for Gov
ernor."
My experience has been that, with
most of the managers Of farmers ele-
vators that they seem to be under the
thumb and direction of the Chamber
of Commerce of Minneapolis, and it
really does me good to read of one
man that is not so controlled. 1t has
always been a puzzle to me to under
stand how the farmers after being
robbed by the old line elevators the
way they have been for many years,
and then get an organization of their
own and build elevators, and the very
first thing they do is to hire n of

writing our figures and not slide in a
cipher too many.
Lastly, you say that we need a
"Moses" to lead US out of the wilder
ness. Now, this statement of yours
may prove the real key to the diff
Guilty, as, if I remember my Sunday
School lessons correctly, Moses never
issued a proclamation or gave out an
order without first going up into the
mountains and consulting "The Pow
ers That Be-" It seems that the Alex
Mckenzie of that time had his office
behind a cloud on Mount Sinai and in
sued his orders from there instead of
from the Ryan hotel as in the pre-Non
Partisan days in North Dakota. I re-
member reading in my Bible of one
message which Moses brought down
and said. It was an Injunction of Je-
hovah's. This was the command that
all the male prisoners, including the
children, and all the married women
prisoners, be murdered at once but,
that the innocent girls should be kept
by the soldiers for their own use.
Now, from this it would seem that
Jehovah must have been a kind of a
Judge Anderson and that Moses must
have been strongly in favor of "free
love- and if that is the kind of a man
we want for Governor, then we should
hustle out Harris to lead US to the
Land Of pronice or noccih1v R,y4pocc
would be the best qualified for the
place.
Hoping that this information and
these few suggestions will be Of great
service to you in selection of a Moses

MOSES WANTED FOR GOVERNOR

Mr.. Thron Thronson, manager of
the Farmers Elevator at Omemee re-
ceived a letter on Dec. 18th from C. J.
Holm, of Solen, N. D., who manages
an elevator in that town asking Mr..
Thronson's views about a State House
Cleaning and to find ont the sentiment
of the people of his community. Mr..
S"lcn smp,sted in His lcrtc1 that a
grain man Of 100 per cent American
calibre would be the proper person for
governor.
Mr.. Solen further stated that the
opposition was sadly in need of a

The following is Mr.. Thronson's
reply and a letter from McGovern fol-
lows to Thronson after Mr.. McGovern
had read Thron's letter in the Courier
News:
Omemee, N. D., Dec. 10, 1919.
c. J. Holm, Esq,
Solen. N. D.
Dear SIR
Your letter asking for my views on
State House Cleaning and on the Sc
lection of a Governor arrived two days
ago.
You ask if I am interested enough
to find out the sentiment of the people
in this vicinity. I certainly am and
I started in to do so Immediately upon
the receipt of your letter, and I have
interviewed exactly % serious mind
ed neople but 26 of the bunch seem
to favor Frazier, n of the others
considered E. Y. Sar'es as the most
moral man who had ever occupied the
chair and thought we ought to ere
peat" on him while the second stated
that no-one but Lars B. Hanna should
have the place. ~~
You seem to think that we should
have a grain nan for Governor. Per-
hans we should. But, We must not
forget that the great mass of the peo-
pie believe that it was the conduct of
the grain men-bip and little and 9TH
ers of their ilk-that forced the farm
ers to build elevators in the first
place and is now forcing them to
build terminals: mills, and banks and
to take over coal mines and other pub
lie utilities.
You state that the man selected
should he 100 per cent American. You
are certainly correct there. But, let
US remember that President Woodrow
Wilson's son-in-law, Mr.. McAdoo, ex-
Secretary of the United States Treas
urv, states that the coal operators
and others of their kind reported pro-
fits of 1000 per cent in 1917. Now,
if this is true (and certainly no-one
could be better informed on federal
Tax reports than the U. S. Secretary
of the Treasury then we have not
only 100 per cent Americans but
1000 per cent Americans and all the
way between, so we must be careful ir
