The local Townley organ takes de-
light from week to week in branding
the editor IF this newspaper as an I /.
V. A. tool.
Last week the secretary of the I. v.
A.. Mr.. Thee. Nelson, wrote letter
to DR.. w. C. Wolverton, in which he
has decided opinions of his own. He
says in part: a
II note with considerable interest
that Mr.. Streeter, who is not men,
Der Of the 1. V. A.. and who has dons
nothing to build it up, is now telling
the members how to run their own
business.

The legislative fights all over the
state of North Dakota will be inter-
'ssting this year. It is just as i'm
portant to break up the Townley ma
chine in the legislature as it is to get
the governorship. And the people
fully realize it. Every legislative dis
;rict in the state will be battlefield
in which the league bosses will take
4 hand. They must have their tools
N the senate and house.
In the legislative district of which
Gmmons is part, the prospects are
rood. Emmors and Kidder counties
comprise the district To date the
attest political returns have shown
Emmons to be anti-league and Kidder
20 be league. But the chances are
good nevertheless.
Last year the referendum shown an
average :.nti-league majority of 221.
Kidder went league by about 500.
This meant e net league majority of a
little over $50. A change of $50
votes in the district would be neces-
sary to make the result safe.
And there is every reason to believe
that such change will be accomplished
It is certain that the league is weaker
n Emmons today than it was even
'ast year. Kidder corntv people of
~ shades of political belief agree
that Town!ey is still strong in Kidder.
but not nearly as strong as last year.
In Kidder county, the league endors-
ed county ticket that is as bad OF
worse than the Emmons county slate.
Widespread dissatisfaction in league
circles has resulted. It is generally
predicted that the league county ticket
is sure loser in Kidder. That alone
will affect the vote on state Offices.
Another thing, Last year there
was fight in Emmons, but none in
Kidder. Anti Townleyites felt hope
'ess of the results, and did not turn q
hand. They are in a fighting mood
today. Kidder county will soon have
an organization going that is just as
strong as the one recently perfected
in Emmons county.
Even though the prospects are good
t behooves us all to keep in the har,
ness. It is better to have too many
votes than not enough.

New developments in the state po-
litical situation since last week are
such as to give those who want to see
this state rid of Townleyism, renewed
hope.
Last week, 1t appeared that certain
gentlemen in Fargo were bound to
run the coming campaign, or bust
things wide open. There was every
reason for such belief. Now, we find
that all is we'll. Treadwell Twichell,
chairman of the newly-formed state
republican committee, has announced
that, owing to the widespread dissat-
isfactioni he has decided to eliminate
the Objectionable features of the call
to be issued for the Minot convention.
Only elected delegates will be ac-
creditbed. This action is most impor>
tant at this time. It means that the
result of the Minot convention will
bring together every creed and faction
opposed to Townleyism. It also
means that VIM. LANCER will be the
standard-bearer of the anti-Townley-
ties. ...
Some may have personal complaints
to make against LANCER for some rea-
son or other, but such complaint must
be of very serious nature if a con-
scientious anti-Townleyite will refuse
to back him when it becomes certain
that he can absolutely win the fight.
And LANCER can win. He-and Miss
Minnie j. Nielson-are the toughest
political team in the state today.
Both have been made politically pow
erful by the persecution of the admin
:stration. LANCER fought Miss Mel.
sons battle, and she is ready to re-
turn the compliment.
Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1920-04-22

When VIM. LANCER gets in the har-
ness for the republican nomination for
governor, and Minnie j. Nelson
starts the fight for state srperinten
dent, the Townley crew will more than
have their hands FULL not counting the
excellent organized backing that these
state officialh will receive.
Jim Waters has 'sbeat it" already,
and more will soon follow. If-Lan>
ger becomes governor of North Dako-
ia, watch the birds Of prey fly for
other climes.

Political conditions in Kidder coun-
ty are peculiar. Since the Townley-
ties began action, Kidder has stood
by the league. But all was not con-
tent up there. Some of the fiercest
fights within the league have Develop
ed in Kidder. 1t was Ingle, of Kid
der, that first led therevolt on Town
ley because of the Consumers stores
graft. Later, the Kidder County Re-
construction League was perfected by
leaguers and organizers. Instead of
paying their dues direct to Townley,
several hundred Kidder county farm
ers selected local officials and placed
their dues in the hands of these Of
ficiahs, is being understood that such
funds would go to TIE league treasury
only when machinery for some degree
of democracy in the organization was
provided by the autocrat.
Townley, instead of meeting the de-
mands of the revolters, sent Walter
Thomas Mills up there to get the cash.
And Mills got it, too. He got on the
good side of the Kidder county man
who had been chosen as treasurer of
the local organization, and succeeded
in getting from him most of the funds
collected.
That ended the revolt. When the
money was gone, there was nothing
left. But the spirit of the fight was
there. Those farmers were discon-
tented. But they had a problem of
their own. They wanted the prom
Used reforms of the league. In order
to get them, they decided they must
stand by the league temporarily, even
to the extent of stomaching Townley,
Walter Thomas Mills and the rest.
And so matters stood until this
year. Sherman was one of the men

 Phoenix high was an easy winner ovc rlobe high in a game at Globe last Friday night. winning handily by a score of 25 to z. Globe was recog nized as the strongest team in eastern Arizona, and the easy Coyote victory gave the Phoenix basket tossers clear claim to state honors.
 A short time ago. however, the III Paso Tigers defeated the Globe team, but the margin was much smaller than that piled by the Coyotes. For that reason the local players are con- fident that they could make a favor able showing against the Texas team, winner of the Lone Star state title.

ARIZONA HAS REAL
 B|G GAME SEASON
 SAYS CAME WARDEN

One man killed 25 bears on the north fork of White river Arizona. during the season" just closing, according to State Game Warden Joe Prochaska. Seven mountain lions have been killed within the state boundaries since Jan uary l, wild turkeys are thick, and never in the history of the state has there been so much game on hand as a present.
 The bear story is vouched for by D. IT. Duffield, a sheepman of Williams, who ayers that one c. J. Funk is the champion bear terror of the wild and woody west. Duffield answers for the woody" part of the west and Funk has 9 "b'ar hides" to prove that the west continues very wild.
 The last lion was killed in the Gra- ham mountains q few days ago by Deputy Warden o. A. Ranier, whose territory covers the "Three G's" coun- try of Graham Gila and GreenIee counties. Ranier's lion is longer by a foot than the one mentioned in the Republican a few days ago. but weighs slightly less. His pelt is at the Cap itoI
 There is nothing to the recent re- port that the sheepmen are ranging the White river headwaters so hard tha. the underbrush is being killed off, and SO that the continued supply of wild turkeys is threatened. Prochaska says. The supply of wild turkeys is greater now than ever beIOres excepting OnlN in the Chiricahua mountains Pro- chaska says he can shoot turkeys bet ter than he can spell some words.
 Deputy Warden Rainier just now IS reported engaged in trapping the over supply of quail in the Geronimo dis trict, where the quail are occasioning complaints from farmers He is trans porting them to the Eagle creek dis trict Greenlee county. The district is about seven miles west of Morenci, and hunters are notified that it can be reached by a fine road (after leav- ing Phoenix).
 The relocating of the quail is being looked after voluntarily by President R. r. Kyle of the Morenci Southern railroad. It is claimed that the trans planted birds will stay put.
 The trodt in Eagle creek, recently planted voluntarily by Charles $. Beck of the Morenci Water company, are re- ported doing fine, and a supply of bass there also is reported prospering.
 A herd of elk in the Graham noun tains. Prochaska says, is flourishing-
