CAPITAL NEWS BUREAU.

While the socialist rropagandists
have not as yet opened determinec
fight against j. F. T. O'Connor, fu-
sion candidate for governor, and have
not seriously attacked his record, in
situations have been passed around
that he has worked against the far
mers. A perusal of his record in the
House shows that he was one of the
most ardent supporters of the Mill
and Elevator Bond Bill providing for
the establishment of state-owned mills
and elevators and in addition to this
the bond list shows that he purchased
$500. 90 worth of bonds in the mill
at Grand Forks.
1t is pointed out, and justly too,
that perhaps the main reason the
League has failed to assail O'Connor
and his record is because they wouio
have nothing on which to attack him,
as he has proven at all times pro-
gressive and willing to listen and act
on any proposition proposed which is
reasonable, but at the same time has
fought tooth and nail the soctalist,c
measures.

is an excellent laxative. figure that
it is the cheapest feed I can get. It

F. W. Cathro, director general OF
the State Bank of North Dakota, has,
if the information contained in the
Nonpartisan League newspapers can
be believed, made good his threat to
open the bank to individual depositors.
League newspapers this week carried
a report Of individual deposits total
ing several thousand a day being re-
ceived, including one from as far away
as Australia (where Walter Thomas
Mills came from). Cathro in re-
cent letter declared that if state bank
ers did not cease attacking the state
bank (which has never been examln-
ed) and did not cease calling it q
political machine, he would accept in.
dividual deposits.

BILL BROOKS HITS OIL

The following from the Grandield,
Okla, Enterprise will be of interest
to our readers for the reason that the
w. I. Brooks mentioned formerly
lived here. Several Commons county
people have stock in this we'll:
Intense excitement is being manifested
over the splendid showing being mace
at the Sioux test, southeast OF the
city. 1t was reported early Thursday
morning that the well had come in ~
gusher, but upon investigation it way
found that someone allowed his en-
thusiasm to draw upon his imagins-
ton. Instead of being a gusher is
developed that the we'll was being
bailed and was brining up about a
barrel a day.
In order to confirm the rumor 70.
porter was sent to interview the COM
pany's president, w. T. Brooks. in
answer to questions Mr.. Brooks re-
plled that it was true they had oil
and was bringing up a barrel with
each swab, but would not bring the
well in for few days as they intend
to see that the hole and casing is IN
perfect order before they drill in, for
1t is easier now to remedy trouble
than later, and that as they had spent
SO much money to get the producer,
did not intend to be careless in satis-
flying their curiosity as to what the
we'll will develop into.

LEAGUE BLow-UP IN BURLE1GA

A year ago, when the league started
out to sell stock in Emmons county
for newspaper, they abandoned their
original corporation and started new
one with the same bakers. The first
corporation was in reality a loca;
newspaper proposition. The second
corporation, and the one now in ex-
jstence, was far from being such.
I. When statesmen got busy down here
the farmers signed notes to the Pub
fishers Service Bureau, and net to the
local newspaper corporation. A cou-
pie of months later, when the Sean
dinavian Bank blow-up came, it was
found that these Emmons county notes
were in that bank as collateral for
loans to various Townley institutions.
The. Record man has seen the notes
that were given by these Emmons
county people, and therefore knows.
what he is talking about.
Well, up in Burleigh county, i,
seems the same condition existed, bu:
with an unexpected result. Up there,
statesmen collected some $4,000 fror.
farmers to "put in their own news
paper" Their notes were made to
the Publishers Service Bureau, and no.
to the Burleigh County Farmers
Press. The league bosses appropriat-
ed the notes for other purposes, and
the Brintons furnished the money to
handle the Palladium, which was to
become the farmers paper" Now,
the Brintons have fallen out with the
other crooks in the league manage
ment and have taken personal charge
of the Burleigh County Farmers Press.
Both sides fought hard to secure con-
troll of it, but it seems that the Town
ley forces cannot get, it. back withou.
paying the Brintons the money they
put in the paper when it was orig.
inally purchased. In the meantime,
steps are being taken by the Blue Sky
'commission to hail into court Lemke
and Wood and the others who have
thus been selling stock illegally.
Anything we have said heretoforc
relative to the crooks in control of
the league is nothing compared witt,
the dope coming to light since Brinton
and Townley got off the Townley res
ervation.

ID. G. Poindexter, jamestown, the
Townley candidate for state aadi1cr,
and who received slightt majority
over State Auditor Carl Kositzky for
the republican nomination, is abcut as
much a republican as Art LeSeueY,
Eugene v nebs, A. i. Town,cy, r =.
NJ. Walker, Judge Crlm and
space prevents the printing of the
whole Socialist membership in the
league offices. A perusal of the files
of the Iconcclast, the official paper OF
the Socialist party in North Dakota,
which was abandoned early in 1916,
with the formation of the League and
the camoflaged Socialist organ, The
Courier-News, which gained most of
its editorial staff from the Iconoclast,
shows that D. C.. Poindexter was on
the payroll as correspondent. While
the real Republicans were certain that
Poindexter was Socialist, they have
been unable to find registration card
signed by him in any place he had
lived, largely due to the fact that
he had not been in one place long
enough to register. AS ia so-called
Correspondent" of the Socialist party,
the Iconoclast in various issues OF
1915, announced that D. C. Poindex-
ter would be at Bismarck, Steele anc
o%1o,. ,oo;u<s ,,y;%b Coo:o1;,% .,,oo1,o..
and would receive memberships and
subscriptions to the Socialist party.
Another article in the Iconoclast re-
ports the great success which Comrade
Poindexter was meeting in gaining
memberships to the Socialist party.
And yet the League chieftains are
able to hoodwink many honest far
mers into thinking that their way is
the way Of progress and not Social
ism.
