FARMER, ONCE
Lacquer TELLS
WHY HE TURNED
Farmers are Made Goat by
League, Declares Dunn
= County Chairman

| An Oakville, N. D. farmer, formerly
a member of the Nonpartisan league
and supporter of the Townley move
ment, has issued letter to his neigh
bors in Dunn county calling attention
to some of the things which he says
caused him to quit the league>and give
his support to the independents. The
thoroughness of his conversion is
found in the fact that he is chairman
Of the Dunn county organization that
is working for the election of the in
dependent or fusion ticket.
A. J. Reems is this farmer and his
view Of the situation is set forth in
the following letter:
The Farmer is the Goat
81 understand that my 'neighbor,
Mr.. Liederbach, is going around the
county making fun of me for quitting
the league.
Il may not have as much education
as my friend Liederbath, and l admit
that l am nothing but poor devil
| farmer Of the common herd, but Lied
erbach with all his education and all
juicy mill, elevator, cream business
cannot put this Townley stuff over me
any more.
Like hundreds of other farmers in
| this state, joined the league in good
faith, but the way this league business
| is going, we farmers are the goat. We
are, however, beginning to get our
eyes open.
! "These league leaders, nearly all
outsiders, don't care snap about us
! farmers. This whole business is moth
ing but scheme to get lpt of easy
money out of the farmers, and it looks
as though they have succeeded, be-
cause when the league started the
leaders were nearly all busted Now
they are living in mansions and fight
ing among themselves over the spoils
have in mind particularly the sisal
trust. which | understand consits Of
Florida lands, worth a couple of mill
ion dollars. TownleN swore in his
bankruptcy case, that he was cleaned
financially Now Waters claims that
Townley owns this sisal trust, and
/ that it was paid for with North Da-
kOta money These fellows need to be
watched
: IL ID dUOuC llllc Iu1C VIC la llCl .
wake up, and start to study the laws,
! that these fellows have given us, es-
[ pecially the tax laws. For example:
! Under the new tax laws, a rancher
who owns $4,000 worth of cattle, pays
| taxes ons 500 of their value, or on
$4,000, while the farmer who owns a
$1,000 farm, pays taxes on 1000 Of
the value thereof-just twice as much
as the cattlemen. This is decidedly
funfair' to the farmer and II defy Lied
erbach or any other league leader, to
explain how we farmers are going to
be benefited under this new, tax
scheme. ~
''There are a hundred other prOpo-
sitions which are as rotten as this tax
,matter, and1 repeat right here, that it
| is high time that we farmers wake up,
and clean house next November.
"Mr O'Connor and the other leaders
in this fight against Townleyism, are
not Socialists. They will put through
the original league program and will
do it on the square.
"Yours always for bigger and bet
ter Dunn county.

BRITISH COAL
STRIKEPARLEY
MAY BE HELD !!
Action of Locomotive Engineers
on Strike Vote Held
Encouraging Sign

London, Oct 22--At meeting OF
the executives Of the associated So
ciety of locomotive enginemen and
fremen today it was decided to defer
decision on the question of sympa-
thetic action with the miners until
Monday. The branch is an important
and wealthy section Of the railway
men, distinct from the national union
of railway men and it's decision is re-
garded as important.
The calling Of meeting of the
miners executive committee for to-
morrow was believed to presage pos
sible reopening of negotiations with
the government looking to a settle
ment of the strike.
This is the first meeting of the eX-
ecutives since the strike and it has
been stated repeatedly that the ex-
ecutives would not meet unless ap-
proched by the government or until
fresh proposals wefe'persented for
consideration. Z
Robert Williams, general secretary
of the transport workers today an
nounced in their behalf with regard
10 the enrolment Of volunteers by the
government, which has been going on,
that the transport men look upon the
danger of the enrolment of volunteers
especially from the middle class and
white guards of the community, as OF
more provocation thRn the use of
trOODs."

Albert Amundson,. of Braddock.
Takes Stump to Tell What He
Joined and What He Found
Arnold Denies Dodging a
Debate.

Albert Admundson, Of Brad
dock, N. D., a farmer and an ex-
league member, is taking the
anti-Townley forces in this cam
paign.
His subject is: What Socialist
Organizers Told Me"
Mr.. Admundson is a farmer.
His sole interests are in agricul-
ture. He is leaving his farm for
one week only, as his work does
not permit long absence. But he
is taking the stump to tell how he
was deceived, how he joined a
farmers organization and found it
dominated by socialists, and why
he is figting Townleyism.
Mr.. Admundson will tell his
story from the same platform
as-W. ]. Arnold, anti-socialist lee
turer. Their intinerary follows:
Monday, Oct. 25, Tappan, 2 p. m.;
They will speak in Tappan and
Steele Monday; Pettibone and
y Robinson on Tuesday, Sykeston
and Darlington on Wednesday;
Pingree and jamestown on Thurs
day and Hannaford and Valley
City on Friday, October 80.
Mr.. Arnold was accused by
league organizers of having
lodged a debate at Tappan.. The
story appeared in the Fargo Cour-
ier-News
"The truth is that the debate
was pulled off without my con-
sent to the date" says Arnold.
l"1 am going back with affidav-
it's and records to prove every
statement | have made and to
meet the lion in his own den.
These fellows are desperate and
will stop short of nothing. We
must meet them at every turn of
the rOad.'

The article Of Mr.. McDonald's will

Mr.. McDonald's denial that he au-

Dublin, Ireland, Oct. 22.-1reland
today is vast human slaughterhouse.
In the south and west counties an
infuriated populace is killing the
kings constables wholesale; and the
constabulary backed by all the power
of a great army of occupation that is
Oh complete war footing, is retail
sting with slaughter Of the populace
and acts Of violence against private
property.
In north Ireland, or Ulster Protest
ants have been killing Catholics and
Catholics have been killing Protest
ants while the military at times. in
an attempt to maintain a semblance
of neutrality has killed some OF both.
Other Forms lOf War
Added to the widespread bloodshed
are the burning of barracks, the loot
ing of gun and ammunition shops, the
destruction of military supply trains
and depots by thu, Irish people; and
military and constabulary reprisals
that have laid waste whole sections Of
cities and towns, destroyed crops,
creameries and livestock. .-,-
No mans life or property is safe in
Ireland today.
What has caused the present terri
ible state Of affairs?
What is the truth about conditions?
What, if anything. can be done to
restore peace and tranquility?
I came to Ireland and have been
touring the country in an effort to get
at the truth The. truth is not easy to
find. Both the British military and
the Irish Sim Fein have, it appears
to my unbiased viewpoint long since
passed the stage where they are in
clined to be fair with each Nother.
There are two distinct "problems"
in Ireland today One is the Irish
Republic" and the other is the "Ulster
Question"
Three millions Of Irishfnen in south
and west Ireland want a republic for
all Ireland, while more than one mill
ion Irishmen in north Ireland, or Uls-
ter, swear they'll die before they'll
become part Of a republic.
Violence Increases Daily
For doing the bidding Of the British
government in trying to suppress the
"Irish Parliament" in Dublin in 1919
the constabulary incurred the intense
hatred of the Sim Feiners.
Glasses soon occurred in all sections
of the south and west of Ireland.
which had elected the Sim Fein men,
bers.
This warfare has never stopped 1t
increases in violence daily.
The constables, finding the three
million Irishmen in south and west
ireland practically a unit against
them, called on London for helps and
Londons answer has been to recruit
the constabulary up to some i13,OOo
and to put regular British army OF
10000 on the island to stand behind
them and help them where necessary
SO today, Great Britain has some
5000 armed men in Ireland, with
numerous tanks, armored motor cars.

paraphernalia Of war; all working to
the end that the Irish movement for
separation from the Empire and the
establishment of an Irish republic
shall be crushed out.

FEED THE OLD
FLIVER WITH STRAW

IF the farmer acn't make the old
horse go on straw and corncobs per
haps he can run his car, his tractor
and his stationary engine with gas
made from them. That's the prob
lem the Department of Agriculture
is struggling with. Already its ex-
perimenters have run an automobile
with the new combustible and used
it for lighting and cooking.
If the results of these tests war
rant further investigation the ex-
periments win be extended to the
problem Of plant equipment for pro-
ducing the gas on scale sufficient
to allow the farmer to supply light
and heat for his house, power for
stationary engines, and possibly for
his tractor from small individual
6 fit If suitable unit can be con-
stgucted it seems likely that the
gfFag gas may have a certain eco
Romis value in the sections of the
- ntry where the raw material
fgom which the gas is made is now
considered as waste and burned or
let to rot.-The Nations Business.
