It is reported that thousands of
farmers in the state of Kansas have
Joined the Non-partisan League and
that there are now over a thousand
members in Ellis county. It is also
reported that there are $4,000 mem
bers of the league In Colorado and
other western and northern states,
and in fact, nearly every state in
the Union the poison of disloyaIty is
being injected.
It is about time that the loyal men
and women of America should line
up and present a solid front to the
propaganda of this vicious trinity
the NOn-partisan League, the I. W. W.
and the Bolshevikis.
Some of the loyal newspapers of
the country are beginning to wake
up to the menace and are beginning
to warn their patrons.
The Non-partisan League have
been trying to get foot hold in Rus
sci county and the Russell Chamber
of Commerce has issued a warning
and the two city papers have taken
the matter in hand as well. We quote
