Danklng fac1lueS to levy TRIBUTE on the producers OF
wheat and consumers Of bread.
Mills and Elevators Vital
Therefore, you can see that the problem is not SO simple
as MI. OConnor would have us believe, and that the North
Dakota system of publicly owned MILLS and LEVATOR
is a VITAL PART of the FARMERS PROTECTIVE PRO-
GRAM if they are ever to exercise any real control over the
market price of wheat, FOR it is thru these mills and ee-
vators that their WHEAT in the form of FLOUR and BREAD
can be taken over the heads of the Grain and Food Gamblers
DIRECT TO CONSUMERS.
1t is because they so clearly recognize the POWER these
Dakota and the Grain Grading and Dockage laws, will give
the FARMERS over the marketing of their grain, that the
Chambers of Commerce have fought so long and SO hard to
strange or destroy the Industrial Program and the Bank of
North Dakota.
In this way, thru an Industrial Program building on
INDUSTRIAL DEMOCRACY-m this way, and in this way
alone, can the farmers finally achieve ECONOM1C INDIE
that equals the selling power of all the farmers Of North
Dakota" and set an example Of TRUE cooperation to their
fellow farmers in all the other states of the union.
Why They Fear It
Well do the Kept Glasses" understand the Farmer-Labor
program of North Dakota and the surrounding states and
they FEAR it and FIGHT it because they KNOW it's success
means THEM earning their living in some other way than
strategic positions thru which the world commerce MUST
pass and telling the tllers and toilers to "STAND N DE-
L1VER"-in some other way than by just AKING what
OTHERS have PRODUCED.
YOU, the farmers and workers, have sent the
crowned kaisers and cars of the state down the road that
yesterday YOU forced the feudal lords and pirates to
travel, now-send the UNCROWNED kaisers and cars
Round out and perfect the work your fathers began when
they first unfur3ed the Stars and Stripes. MAKE the
dream of the great Carpenter of Nazareth, the Brother
hood of Man, come TRUE!

pecially have in mind is q new
Some friend was kind enough to
mail me a copy of this weekly
paper and no doubt many other
League members have received cop
les of this wonderful vote getter
for the League candidates." I
can not e that any one reading
it could do anything but double
his or her enthusiasm for the League
candidates to be voted on Nov. 2.
In this copy of Brinton's Weekly
he charges that he wrote Governor
Frazier, concerning the embezzle-
ment and crookedness that was
going on in the Bank of North
Dakota, so as to give the Governor
a chance to s~traighten matters up
before it went too far, to protect
his good name and the Leagues.
If Brinton knew that things were
going wrong at the bank, If Brinton
knew that Governor Frazier and
his associates were at fault why
didn't he come out like a man
and give the people the facts, in
place Of trying to shield the crooks,
by giving them a. chance to straight
en- matters up to protect their name
and interests?
That is what has been the trouble
in the past. We have had men at
the head OF u state affairs, our
senators and representatives, gov
rnors and attorney generals that
have been more than willing to
shield the crooks and kept the
people in ignorance of what was
going on in our public affairs and
institutions. Therefore l say Id
rather vote for the crook than one
who tries to shield a crook. So
here is one vote for Governor Fra
zier and the entire League ticket
and last but not least, every League
candidate in the Independent column
to boot.
I am Yours truly. c. p. DAHL.
