The anarchists Of this nation are not all wild

wretches. The worst sort sit in the high places,
who disregards and directly disobeys the law is
an ANARCHIST, whatever his station in life. The
man who would make the minority rule is an.
autocrat-the foe of democracy. He is seditious,
he is traitorous, he is disloyal. And We accuse
those men who at Bismarck on February 18th,
publicly attempted to disregard the law and to
place the minority in power over the majority
as being the traitors, the disloyalists and the
anarchists of this land.

NOT SOCIALISTS

Farmers and others of North Dakota who
support the Nonpartisan League may now rest
easy, for despite the repeated charges by the
were Socialists, Theodore Koffel, a Bismarck
attorney and a violent anti-Leacuer, is reported
to have declared at the so-called republican
county convention here last week that no man
was a socialist unless he stood for the "repudi-
alton of God: for the denial of Jesus Christ and
for the abolition of the family institution" AS
Nonpartisans do not stand for any of the above,
Attorney Koffel's definition of the socialist ex-
cludes every member of the League from being
one. It has been considered for some time by
MANY that the cry of socialist" hurled at the
North Dakota farmer by the big business press
was merely for effect and we are glad to now
see one of the anti-farmer leaders come out
and admit that the kept press was lying.-Bur-
leigh County Farmers Press.

BENEFITS RECEIVED FROM
TAKING TANLAC

81 wasn't looking 10 much for gain

may know by that what l think Of
Tanlae," said w. II. Hardness, q well
known resident Of 1772 Wordsworth
Avenue, st. Paul, Mimi, in converse
ton with friends recently.
"For the past year, that is until /
got Tanlac," explained MI. Hardness,
"I have certainly been in miserable
health and it just seemed like nearly
everything was getting the matter
with me. My kidneys bothered me con-
stantly and my back hurt 50 bad /
Icould hardly stoop over and straighten
up. Why, sometimes this pain was so
sharp that it almost took my breath
away. My appetite went back on me
and my stomach got in such bad shape
that what little l did eat would sour,
causing gas, heartburn and almost un-
bearable cramping pains. Very often
this gas would crowd my lungs and
cause my heart to palpitate until !
would get so short Of breath and weak
that I felt like I was going to faint.
II was badly constipated and had the
worst kind Of headaches every few
days. / also had sharp rheumatic
pains in my legs and arms and got to
where it was just all I could do to at
tend to my work. My sleep was so
broken that I would get up in the
morning feeling worse than when I
went to bed atnight, and many a day
II felt like I would be compelled to
give up and go home. ~.
"I was badly discouraged, for none
of the medicines I tried helped me a
particle. In fact, / kept getting worse
until I made up my mind, for what
the people right around me here in
st. Paul said about Tan'ac, to try that
medicine and then I commenced to
pick up so rapidly that it SURPRISED
me. Why, my stomach and kidneys
never caused me the least bit cf trou-
BILE any more and I haven't an ache or
pain Of any sort. My appetite is SPLEEN

pounds in weight. I sleep fine at night
and get up in the mornings ready,

myself in perfectly sound condition
and feeling that Tan!ac has been a

to say a good word for it."

PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICANS

IL AOOnSO, " q "AAAAO 40 VANVuSA VAAO ,NANAAOA-3
zie-Young combination would have things its
own way in the Presidential primary campaign
in this state. Though the combination started
out divided, it evidently concluded that such d-
vision was bad strategy despite the fact that the
Nonpartisan League would refuse to mix in
the campaign. The resultant combine is a sort
of Siamese Twin affair. 1t has two heads, two
bodies and the double complement of limbs and
organs. 1t is united on but one slender tissue
the nomination of Gunder Olson, as National
Committeeman. 4
The Mckenzie convention held Jan. %, nom-
mated nine candidates for d~elegates to the Ma
tional convention, three candidates for Presi-
Dental electors and Gunder Olson for National
committeeman The Bacon-Young convention
held Feb. II, nominated it's candidates for dele
gates to the national convention and endorsed
after a terrific effort-Gunder Olson. It also
nominated candidates for Residential electors.
In fact it is the same old Gang, doing business in
the sam old way and merely slightly split
over the spoils in prospect, whihc seem certain
with the election of a republican President.
. Everything seemed 'fixed' and the "heads-1
win, tails-vou-lose" arrangements had been
made, SO that whichever set of delegates were
elected the Old Gang would be in power. The
feared interference of the Nonpartisan League
was not forthcoming. The League felt that it's
first and paramount duty was to insure the
carving out of the industrial program, and un-
til this had been accomplished it had no right to
an interest in the field of national politics. So
the Leacue saw the maneuvers of the Old Gang
and said nothing and sawed wood on state is
sues.
But is seems that there still remain Progress
sive Republicans in North Dakota who resent
the dividing of the people by the old guards.
The spirit of 1912 was not dead. In that year, at
Presidential primary, LaFollette the candidate
of the progressive republicans, defeated Taft,
the cano candidate, by 10.454 out of a total vote
of 57,792. In that camapipn there were 34.123
Progressive republicans. There are still that
number! Their faith in progressive principles
has not waned. Instead it has waxed stonger.
It was not surprising then-in fact it was to
be e~xpected-that the pogressive republicans
would take action. This they did at a meeting
held in Hillsboro, Feb. 20. There they nominated
a complete ticket for the presidential primaries
presidential electors, national committeeman
and delegates to the national convention. In ad-
dition to this. and indignant at the unlawful at
tempt of the Old Gang convention to GUST the
legally elected pecinct and state committeeman,
the progressive republicans demanded that VIM.
Lemke, duly elected chairman of the state CEN
trail committee at Bismarck Feb. 9th, there
to take action to defend the republican party
from control by boss and the minority and to
formulate a program upon which all progressive
republicans can unite.

One elevator in Park River has just paid
1884. 10 to twentv-one farmers for dockage. The
AGENT had bought the farmers wheat and
locked it but forgot to pay for the dockaqe! An
agent of the state grain inspection department
appeared on the scene and looked over the books
and found the dockage unpaid. He remained
rirht there until the twentv-one checks went
out. One farmer got a check for $223.50; an
other for $124.25. There is poing to be some
weeping and wailing among thee elevators when
the next season opens. for unless thev have
cleared their books and can show all docka"e
paid for-the grain inspection department will
not Issue a license. Meantime the elevators who
have been stealing dockage are Poinp to be prob
ded into paving back every cent they took.
There will be some surprised farmers in this
state before the new wheat is ripe-pleasantly
surprised, too.
