.NEvER AGAIN"

(The opinion of another North OAK
ota farmer who was formerly men,
Der of the league is told in the fol-
lowing letter recently published in
the columns Of the Minor, Sargent
County, North Dakota Teller.)
Towner, N. d. Feb. 9, 1920.
A. c, Townley,
Pres. Nonpartisan League,
st. Paul, MINI.
Dear Sir:I received today your
letter asking me to renew my men,
bership in the Nonpartisan League
by sending you my check for $1S.
In reply to this wish to inform you
that am through with your league.
Do you want to know Why. Well
I will tell YOU. Your platform when
I first joined the league was one Of
economy. You were to save us taxes.
Instead our taxes have been doubled
for state purposes. Last year this
county contributed $4,000 to run the
state; this year will contribute $4,000.
Where does this increase go? Most
of it to pay your long haired social
list friends, the greater part of them
not even taxpayers in North Dakota,
that you have added on to the state
payroll at fat salaries, not because
they were needed but because they
cnoso1sckc ILL., ~vo,,rco1f
Then you have caused to be filled
through your puppet the governor
every appointive Office in the state
with men of the Stangeland- lotion
Macdonald type, nauseating to every
citizen of the state who loves his
country and fair play. You have
throttled the freedom of the press by
your unfair newspaper law which
puts one of your own papers with its
canned" and often times false
articles into every county and kills
off the little country newspaper whose
owner will not bow to your orders.
You have spent thousands upon thous-
ands Of dollars gotten from our hard
earnings to stir up class prejudice
and class hatred and we can no longer
live in peace and friendship with our
neighbors. -.
In my opinion you have sold to me
and others in the state who fell for
spellbinders, bigger gold brick offer
than the greediest corporation ever
dared to even offer for sale; you have
corrupted more honest people to be-
come your tools by giving and promis-
ing them jobs, than any other polite
al boss that ever tried to corrupt the
state; and you are steering our state
into bankruptcy by your wild socialist
Tic ideas of state owned everything
ideas that have been tried and dis
carded hundred times as impractical
the world over, yes even in New
Zealand.
Is it not enough to make an honest
man hang his head in shame when he
stops to think that he helped to bind
such rule as yours on his fair state.
I say it is. Therefore, Never again.
MARTIN SALBERG.

farmers and is building its own paper

"There is only one way to prevent
the disaster which will folloV this
combination of high finance and i'm
practical utopianism. The league in
North Dakota is about at the end of
its rope so far as getting more money
from farmers in that state. The funds
to finance the movement are now COM

The way to stop the league is to show
the farmers in these states exactly
what the league is doing in North
Dakota how it has failed there and
what the end will be there and else
where.
Sunless this is done in Minnesota.
Wisconsin and other agricultural
states will be captured by the league
and it's program carried out in them.
Those who are posted say that next
fall Minnesota will either be carried
by the league or the result will be
very close. Wisconsin will come next.
Encouragement of the cooperative
marketing movement among farmers

100000 AT BIG
LEAGUE PARKS
IA Major Clubs Open Season
Before Packed Stands.

NEW YORK, April 15.-The 1920 base
ball season has been launched success
fully and the pennant races In the major
leagues are on in full swing today.
Fourteen OF the sixteen big league
clubs exhibited themselves before a total
of upward of 100000 fans in the opening
games, and the interest Of fandom is
apparently keener than ever, although
chilly weather kept attendance figures
down in a majority OF the cities where
inaugural games we're played yesterday.
The worlds champion Cincinnati Reds,
favored by many critics to repeat their
victory Of 1919, and the Cleveland Spokes,
favorites at large to win the American
league pennant started off with victories.
The Chicago White Sox also started
by winning.
OF the seven games played two went
Into extra innings and the showing made
by the players in general Indicates that
they are in great condition to begin the
long season.
The first efforts of the Giants and
Yanks were steered in gloom, but Yam
kee fans were consoled today by the
news that Frank Baker, erstwhile home
run king, probably Will be seen In a
New York uniform within a week.
Baker heard the call OF the diamond at
his home in Trappe, Nd, yesterday and
got into telephone communication with
Manager Miller Higgins. He was to
confer with Higgins In Philadelphia to-
day and it WAS predicted here that he
will return to play third base, now being
held down by Bob Meusel.
