the league gang relative to that hun
dred dollar reward of theirs. AS we
said, they intend to drag the thing
along until after election. Let them
stall, crawish, or do as they please IN
this weeks issue,5 the last before eiec-
ton. The facts remain the same.
We have the written statement Of
a man in Burleigh county, relative
Of Fay Harding's, that Harding
figured the state would own. the land
within four years.

We have the proof that the same
persons have been officials of the L.
W. w., the socialist party and the
nonpartisan league. We have ar
ranged to have that proof in the hands
of Klabunde's at Hazelton and j. P.
Hem at Strasburg, and we have the
proof here.
From the original league article Of
fering the hundred dollars, we i'm
agine their, defense will be that some
of these socialists are not active Of
Gals of the league. That is no. de-
tense. In the first place, we can
prove the connection Of l.. w. VS.
and Socialists as officials of the league.
But we can't always disprove that
they've been fired We might bring
a charge today and the league deny
it tomorrow, and the man in question
could have been fired in the mean
time. -
If you doubt our claims, come to
the debate next Monday night. Y
Further. don't believe any rumors
spread at the last minute. For In
stance, in some neighborhoods it Is
said that Ed, Miller, if elected sheriff,
will go after the owners Of stills.
While in other places it is said that
there is no choice between Miller and
ivolk. Mr.. Cheney himself, a candi-
date in the primary, has made the lat
ter statement. IL,
Be warned against last-minute roor
backs. It is favorite political
trick.

TO THE VOTERS

This is the last issue Of the EN-
mons county papers before election.
In days gone by, politicians attempted
to take advantage of last minute at
tacks on candidates, knowing that an
answer could not be given.
The Record will not resort to such
tactics, and should the league paper
do so, please let your spirit Of fair
play determine whether or not any
such attacks should be given consider
ation-except to discredit the side
making them.
We do not know that the league
forces will do this. But they might.
This is merely a w:rning.
AS to our position, we have at
tempted to give what information we
have to the people in time that any
objection could be raised. to our claims
before the votes were cast.
We claim the league is run by So
cialists. And it is. We can prove
it thoroughly and completely. But
the trouble with the league fellows,
when we get the goods on some one
of their officials showing him to be
a former socialist and also former
I. w. w. official, they shout back,
"He isn't holding such job now.
Maybe so. But that is no defense.
1t is like the employee that got in
trouble and was summoned before the
boss. The boss in an irate mood,
when he beheld the guilty employee,
| shouted you're fred" ooh, no."
said the employee, II quit five min
utes ago |" And so it is with the
league. Our claim has been that the
league was organized and managed
by bunch Of resident and non-resi-
dent socialists. And so it was. We
can prove it by reams of evidence.
Let the leaguers use what subterfuges
they may. The fact remains. Why,
Miller, the leagues imported county
manager, admits it. If we want to
talk about the socialist leaders of the
league, why he sees no reason for
wasting the time in debate. No,
neither do we, except that some we'll
meaning farmers still contend that
our claims about the socialist end of
it are not true. They are the men
we wanted to convince.
The league county manager made
two bad mistakes ,one in the 500 re-
ward bluff, and the other in the debate
bluff. Both have reacted.
The fight is coming to a close.
Those who are not yet ready to follow
the socialists in their program should
stop and consider that only by beating
livery one of their candidates can the
socialist influence be suppressed. 1t
doesn't matter what the office. If the
Townlyites are after the office, it's up
to the independent voters to try to
head them off. And so, it seems clear
that it is our duty to vote to defeat
every league candidate for office.
1--WE should not waste a vote. Every
fight in the bunch is important. Don't
overlook the judges or the county
ticket when you 60 to the polls to cast
your ballot for O'Connor.
| We have to vote on our side to win
all down the line. If they get to the
polls, and if they register their vote
on every candidate and issue, the So
cialist government for North Dakota
will be thing of the past.

!. come.
!. 40. =.
These are sorry days for one Mr..
Miller, imported non-taxpaying county
manager Of the Townley forces in this
county. Mr.. Miller started o',t with
the idea that a camafouged offer Of
$1G0 reward to the Record to prove
its claims about the socialist. end Of
the league would tend to discredit tie
Record and to strengthen the league
forces. We leave it to any neutral
or unbiased reader of last weeks
Record to decide what happened to
Miller's s1oo bluff.
Now, for bluff No. 2. AS was
stated last week, the league forces for
time seemed to have abandoned their
old plan of avoiding debate, and ap-
peared to be inclined to give the Rec
ord man a chance to debate with
them. We published the first series
of communications last week. We
are reprinting them herewith, as we'll
as those which followed. The series
of letters themselves amply demon
strate what cold-blooded bluff Miller
tried to pull, and some of the excuses
he had to resort to were laughable, to
say the least.
First of all, he wanted his debate
on Sunday. If that doesn't lose his
gang some votes, we are greatly mis-
taken.
Second, he wanted that debate clear
down in one corner of the county
where only comparative few could
attend. He wanted to debate in d
community that is strongly against
him, so that poor showing in the
debate would not lose him votes. And,
he could go through the rest of the
county and satisfy the demands of
league supporters who have been get
ting touchy because the league leaders
seem so averse to meeting our re-
quests for debates. He could also ex-
plain to them how thoroughly the
league speaker whipped the Record
man in. the argument.
: Miller wouldn't allow debate in
the north end of the county Under any
set Of facts. He would only stand
FOR places that were against him, any
way.
The league imported county man.
ager opined that reference to the
present socialist control of the state
would be Personalities" but grudg-
ingly consented-with! reservations
to allow debate on the subject. He
would debate on Sunday, Monday OF
Tuesday, and asked the Record man
to set the time at Linton, Strasburg
or Dale. We chose Linton as the
place and Monday night as the time.
Miller then replied that there was no
place available at Linton. He was
~. !. aEss- -. fE ! ~
wrong Both the opera house and the
pavilion could have been secured. He
was so informed on Wednesday of lass
week. The league paper was pub
ished the day following, and Miller
published all the correspondence ex-
cept the last one which informed him
that the pavilion had been secured. .
That was dirty political trick to try
to mislead his readers.
From Wednesday until Saturday
we heard nothing from him, on the
debate subject. Thursday, however,
he wrote that Prof Ladd would be in
Hazelton Friday, and that the Record
man could ask him questions on the
