 Stsnislnus Obara, who rans . grocery store at No. e7 Main street, was charged in the police court Saturday morning with selling intoxicating liquors to Felix Lesi- nowslxi, also of this city. Obara entered a plea of not guilty and his case was con- tinued for one week, bonds being fixed at x100. The arrest of Obara by the local police followed the arrest of Lesinowski for intoxication Thursday night last. Obara complained about the latter and the police made the arrest. Lesinowski then turned against Obara, stating Obara sold him liquor. Lesinowski was charged by Obsra with stealing a quantity of meat from a box he had taken out of the etore
 Lesinowski stated to the court that he was in Obara's place about o'clock in tho afternoon of the day in question, be- ing accompanied by Peter Susako. He bought a bottle of Jamaica ginger for 65 cents and four glasses of cider st five cents glass. Mixing the jakey. he drank t, Susako drinking only straight cider. Tho cider was not sweet and had some kick, according to Lesinowski. He gave Obara s5 bill and the latter was going to keep scme of it as payment of a gro- oery bill owed by Lesinowski, but when informed that the money was to be used to buy an axe he returned the change. Iasinowski returned that evening and claimed that Obara told him he could have the box if he could put it on his shoulder. He admitted getting pretty drunk on the cider and jakey.
 Obara claimed he bought the cider from a windham farmer and that it was sweet He had only two gallons of it and did not have cider in his store at all times. He sold the Jamaica ginger to Lesinowski when the latter said he had stomach ache and was going into the woods tc work. Obara did not see the latter mix the cider and ginger. He had barrel of elder in the cellar he was saving for vine. gar, but it had not been opened.
 An argument arose over the question oi money owed to Obara- Lesinowski claim ed he owed only for groceries but Obars claimed he had furnished $2215 as pay. Tnent for Lesinowski's fine when he had been arrested on complaint of Mrs. Lesi nowski. Both cases were continued tC Saturday of this week.

TO wHOM7

The Bull Goose of the Forum and
his fellow Boss Ganders of the I. V.
A. flock are, if they hold to their pres
ent rule or ruin policy, soon destined
to be taught a few FACTS by that
iron law they affect to brush aside
so bravely, to learn that Economic
Power is the determining factor in So
cial evolution, and that that power
today rests with sthe Farmers and
Workers, and that the Producers are
fast awakening to the facts that con
front them.
W. c. Macfadden, Secretary of the
North Dakota Bankers Association,
will not in that day of awakening be
able to gull the people with a line of
lingo like this: "The failure to sell
the bonds was chiefly due to the fact
that eastern bankers recognized what
a terrible weapon existed in the Bank
Of North Dakota. Eastern bankers
saw that the state bank could be
either very useful or very dangerous.
1t proved to be dangerous and eastern
bankers did not feel safe in buying
goods under these conditions" (See
The Forum, front page, 11-24-20) fol
the awakened People will very likely
ask him: "Dangerous'? 'Terrible'?-
To Whom ? "Well, if you wish to know

1T IS so.

When the Soul, which weighs but
a breath in comparison with our body's
bulk, is taken away, all the machinery
of our becomes inert and useless; and
this is our answer to the editor of
The Forum when he says (11-24-20),

all the work Of four years, surely
that work could not have amounted
to much" Time on time we warned the
people, and especially the farmers,
that the Bank of North Dakota was
the soul of the entire Industrial Pro-
gram. Time after time the I. V. A.
press boasted that in their assault on
the Bank they were reaching for the
vitals of the League SYSTEM" and now
all that is happening proves that that
boast was no idle threat, for all the
signs witness their intention to pre-
vent, if they can, the farmers from
controlling their w credit,-the soul,
the VITAL PART is all they need to
take away in order to accomplish their
ends, and this, and THIS ALONE, is
sufficient to explain their campaign
cry: "Turn the key in the door of the
Bank of North Dakota" They are no
wiser but they are a hundred times
more guileful that the farmers and
workers who voted Eyes" on the laws
initiated by the I. v. A.. to make it
easier for Big Business to initiate a

But .panics are like the boy said a
gun was when his daddy whipped him
with the ramrod, dangerous without
lock, stock or BARREL" and so now
that the I. V. A. have their hoped fol
panic started they are finding out that
it is liable to hit THEIR banks and
businesses harder than they can ever
hope to hit the Bank of North Dakota
and the farmers; for, when all is saic
and done the Farmers hold the Eats
and that is more than half the battle:
because you see, Eats, and not Print

Credit. It is they who feed the World
who clothe the world, who house the
