P. E.. Zimmerman, Field Secretary
of the Kansas Anti-Bolshevik Cam
paign, was one of the Kansas "dele-
gates to the Conference of the
Committee of Forty-Eight" at ST.
Louis. He reports that his fondest
anticipations were realized; that this
Conference" was merely Townley
conception; that its object was to
amalgamate all the radical or I'M
American elements into one league"
in order to enable Herr Townley to
gain the balance Of power in the
1920 general election by "boring
from within" the two old parties. AS
a result of this Conference" the
Reds hope to be able to manipulate
100000 votes in 1920. If their
estimate is correct, this presents a
deadly menace that no patriotic
American can afford to ignore or
underestimate. For the Reds are
active and organized likewise amply
financed; while the supposedly pat
riotic people are disorganized, I'M
organized, Indifferent, and unwilling
to pay out good money for any cause
that has for its objective the preser-
walton of American ideals and insti-
tutions. The Nonpartisan League
agitators have separated the farmers
of one Kansas county from $4,000;
the supposedly patriotic people
of the entire state of Kansas, in the
past three years, have not contrib
uted one-ffth of that amount to the
support of the only organization in
the state that is strenuously fighting
the battle of Americanism. Barnum
was RIGHT!
eff the American people become
the trembling slaves of a new word,
they would give an unstinted meas
ure of praise to the Russian Soviet.
Never in all history have a people
fought against heavier odds than the
Russian people under the leadership
OF Nicolai Lenine. And the Amer
lean people, who have always hither-
to given their whole hearted admira-
ton to any people fighting for free
dom, should not withhold this admira-
ton from the Russians Fargo
Courier-News, Nov. 18th, 1919.
And this from the official daily or
gan of the esteemed Nonpartisan
League, and written by formerly
from-Kansas" editor! Ye Gods
Where do we go from here?
Olger Burtness, of Grand Forks
one of the few truly American mem
bers of the North Dakota legislature
has uncorked a new scandal that
smells to high heaven. In looking
over an assortment of books in the
states circulating library (intendec
for the public schoo1s) he discovered
the following t'free love" and Grad
ical' gems:

One of these books, Glove anc
Ethics" by Ellen Key, contains thi:
astounding passage: Startling view:
on marriage relation, refusal to &C
cept time-honored belief in sanctit-
of marriages -monogamy inevitably
consequences the loss Of enormou:
amount of life energy-the standard
OF parentage, not the marriage RICH
or the legitimacy of their children
but the quality of the child-dissolu
ton of marriage made dependent OF
the will of the heir-free love-mo
therhood out of wedlock-the super
iorities of the child who is a product
of pure passion as compared with thc
product of lawful union"
Nice stuff, this, to implant in tt
minds of the coming generation! Ar
to think that at one time, we we
under the belief that the object {.
the so-called Nonpartisan League wa
to secure economic betterment an;
more equitable marketing facilitie
