The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1920-10-07

On September LIST, 1920, Mr.. Young Of
the Ninth District Federal Reserve
bank. publicly stated that the bank
carried on that date twenty. two mil
lion commercial and tifty-eight million
dollars Of agricultural loans. In other
words the Townley-Lemke press does
not hesitate to lie to the farmers and
stock growers and SANDER the federal
reserve banking system.
1t may also be mentioned that the
federal land bank, also operated by
the government, same as the federal
reserve has already loaned YER twen-
ty million dollars to North Dakota
farmers. But the truth Stands no show
in the Lcmke news press, when straw
men are needed. Pity Lemke can't
! attack the federal reserve banks and
hail them before Robinson, his former
partner. He might at least kill off the
federal reserve bank in a Saturday
evening letter.
Their four strawmen or hogie men
will now march up and down the state
until November End. Lemke will draw
his dreadful ~snickersnee and attack
them regularly and his paper will an
nounce the victory in wooden type.
Meantime sensible people who are
tired Of this pantomime are daily as
surfing Mr.. Kamplin of their support
for attorney ge%neralship.

Quit wilma Drive.

Riga.-The military attaches of the
Polish peace delegation here state that
the Poles have abandoned their drive
In the direction Of Wilma, the Lithu-
anfan capital, owing to the progress of
the negotiations with the Lithuanians
and the assurances Of the Lithuanian
government at Krovno that it would
not ~countcnance a bolshevik invasion
OF Lithuanian neutrality.
{ The abandonment of the Wilma cam
paign may be the %forerunner of q
change in the entire military policy
which would brighten the prospects Of
peace.

JOHNSON ON POLITICAL LOGIC.

Matt Johnson, the veteran news
paperman and progressive war horse
from Bottineau county, who now is
editor Of The Independent, has no use
for political demagogues nor for polit-
ical trickery. His contempt for the
subterfuges which the Nonpartisan
league leaders will stoop to is we'll
known to his many friends through
out the state. Speaking on the farm
ers' Endorsement of the million dol
lar mill proposition, Mr.. Johnson said
recently:
"The fact of the matter is that we
did not talk in millions when dealing
with the terminal elevator program,
and certainly not of a million dollar
mill until after Townley saw the op-
p]ortunities for sQuandering public
funds after the adoption of the league
referendum measures in 1917. The
farmers did not then dream of any
such a thing as a million dollar mill.
When the league leaders claim to have
a direct endorsement of this part Of
their program they remind me Of the
fellow who claimed to be in the horse
business because he once had a night
mare"

Increased liquidation by holders was

Acute depression developed at the

In the final trading the leading feat

Every Druggist In U. S. In
structed to Refund Price
While You Wait at Counter
if Relief Does Not Come
Within Two Minutes.
Delightful Taste, Immediate
Relief, Quick Warm-Up.

The sensation of the year in the
drug trade is Aspironal, the two
minute cold and cough reliever, au-
thoritatively guaranteed by the lab
oratories: tested, approved and most
enthusiastically endorsed by the high
est authorities, and proclaimed by
the common people as ten times as
quick and effective as whiskey, rock
and rye, or any other cold and cough
remedy they have ever tried.
All drug stores are now supplied
with the wonderful new elixir, so all
you have to do to get rid Of that cold
is to step into the neareyt drug store,
hand the clerk half dollar for a
bottle Of Aspironal and tell him to
serve you two teaspoonfuls with four
teaspoonfuls Of water in a glass.
With your watch in your hand, take
the drink at one swallow and call for
your money back in two minutes if
YOU can not feel your cold fading
away like a dream within the time
limit. Don't be bashful, for all drug
gists invite you and expect you to
try It. Everybody's doing It.
When your cold or cough is re-
lieved, take the remainder of the
bottle home to your wife and babies,
for Aspironal is by far the safest and
most effective, the easiest to take and
the most agreeable cold and cough
remedy for infants and children
