North Dakota Reacts

People Of North Dakota have recalled NonParsan League
officials, but refused to repeal the NonP League
Legislative program In the League program
will be administered executives pledged to its destruction
be said that North Dakota voted very intelligent
y The Of the recall would Indicate personal un-
popularity of the defeated officials rather than reputation
of the Leagues socaistc schemes The election not only
wrecks the Leagues program but also wrecks reconsruc
ion program and creates exceedingly unfortunate cond
tion for the state.
The rise and progress Of the League due principally to
the refcency and corruption Of the two old parties in
perpetuang ntoerable economic conditions, whereby the
farmer systematically derauded out Of his produce
through combination of political and financial interests that
neglected the producer and favored the specuao manufac
turer and mddeman denying relief to the farmers who
prised 81 percent Of the population.
Justfabe discomfort Of the producers capitalized by
socialist agitator and politicians and revolutionary class
program put forth whereby the Of the state
utilized to establish state owned institutions to finance the
farmer, market and manufacture his products state
bank state flour MILL state grain elevators state crop nsr
ance and state marketing machinery established
Politicians seldom business men, and theorists rarely
practical The net result might have been expected
ineffcency ncompetency and partial failure and tremend
increase in taxation pay the cost of the experiments
The boycoted interests started backre in the financial
world which aided by the aferthewar slump in the price
LOT farm products completed the decentralization OF the
paternalstic program.
The election result emphasizes the innate conservatism Of
the people, again that any political class program
advocating radical changes doomed to short life inertia isl
human characteristic and the great resent change
though essential to progress Among the of the
world only few have progressed among these only few
nations, and among these nations comparatively few in
dvduals Progress gradual be almost mpercepbe
in generation. Forms change but institutions survive
Americans indviduass and untitled by inheritance,
training and environment for communisc socalstic
enterprises Consequently their ventures along this line
meet failure They will not bcak them up if launched
In their revolt political stupidity and abuse they may
start revolutionary programs but they do not far before
they return beaten paths Every advance is succeeded by
reaction.
The Non Partisan League has served useful purpose in
arousng public opinion not to the dangers Of socialism, for
there is likelihood of that but to the necessity of
giving the producer deal If he does not it,
there will be other and greater revots

Mrs. BruirlfieId
And Children
Now In Salem

Accompanied by her three chill
dren-all boys ranging in age
from s to 10 years-Mrs. r. M.
Brumfield, wife of the former
Roseburg dentist who now eecu-
pies a cell In murders row In the
state prison here, arrived IN Salem
Tuesday afternoon. in order 10 De
near her husband.
Mrs. Brumfield has been accord
ed the privilege of visiting with
the condemned niaa on two or
three afternoons each week and
spent half an hour with her hus-
band in the prison chapel yester-
day. Neither displayed any un-
usual emotion upon meeting un-
der the changed conditions sur
rounding Brumfield since his in
carceration in the state prison and
their conversation touched large
ly upon friends and acquaintances
at Roseburg and their attitude to-
ward the prisoner.
Both are apparently hopeful OF
mitigation of the extreme penal
ty in the appeal to the supreme
court, which appeal when filed
will automatically stay the execu-
tion which is set for Friday, Janu-
airy 13.

Salem, Crippled
Plays Corvallis
There Saturday

With several men on the SICK
and crippled list, Salem hign
school football men will leave here
early Saturday morning for Cor
wallis where, Saturday afternoon,
they will meet the Corvallis high
school eleven in what will be one
of Salem's hardest games.
Speed and weight are combined
in the Corvallis machine which is
this year coached by "Speck'
Keene, former Salem high school
football man, and both Albany
and Eugene were easily eliminat-
ed by the Corvallis eleven. Albany
fell with score of IA to nothing
and Eugene was vanquished, 20 to
nothing.
Present indications are that
white, Daley and Socolofsky will
not be in the Salem lineup, and
Coach Paul Hendricks is plainly
worried concerning the outcome
of the session.
Scores Of Salem rooters will ac-
company their team to Saturdays
