NOTICES.:

Just about one argument is being
used in this county by those support
ing the, nonpartisan league. It is
the expense of the election. It is
well to remember that, according
to the governors own estimate, the
expense will be only about 100000
for the state. 1t is also well to re-
member that the league sunk nearly
five times that amount of state funds
in the league bank at Fargo alone.
1t is also we'll to remember that they
have sold couple of millions of
bonds, so that they are in shape to
do the same thing again in some
other bank. The defeat of Frazier
and Lemke will mean the, stopping OF
this squandering of money, and will
we the state many times the
amount of the cost of election. II
If the independents win the elec.
tion, the cost of the election will be
saved many times. If the league
ms, the cost OF the election is to.
tai loss.
If the Independents win, foreign
investors will put their money back
in North Dakota. If the league wins
they will stay out, and others will
withdraw.
The league provided the recall law
The legal number of citizens of this
state brought about the recall. Re.
fusing to vote, or voting for the
league, will not save the expense Of
the election.
If you are satisfied with the league
administration, vote to retain, it il
power. If not, vote for change.

Quoted. They then led the procession
to the grave yard a mile and half
west of the church.
Deceased was a member of the
Christian Reformed Church of Hull.
He was born Sept. 16, 1895, in EN-
mons county, and left Linton on May
"a, 1918, for Camp Lewis, WASH, to
enter the military service. One
month later he started from New
York on his way to France. He ar
rived on the battle field July 5th, and
was killed instantly in action at the
battle of LeMensa on Sunday after
noon. Sept. 29th. I He was therefore
only thirteen days more than % years
Of age when killed and had been in
the service from the time he left Lin
ton only four months and five days.
As great throng was never before
gathered together at Hull as was
there to pay their last respects to
their own neighbor and hero Of the
Great War. Rev. Duiker. of Stras-
burg; Rev. Damstra, of Westfeld; and
Rev. DeBraum, of Hull, all assisted
in the service. About forty service
men in uniform comprised the mill
tary contingent.
While no thoughts can entirely
drive away the grief Of the sorrowing
parents whose boy was SO suddenly
stricken while but youth, yet it must
be source of deep pride to know
that his career was the most glorious
that can fall to the lot Of mortal man
To make the supreme sacrifice for
what one holds dear, and what all his
Frelatives and friends hold dear, is
the highest Of honors. The greatest
thing that any of US can leave behind
when we join the silent throng is q
universal feeling of respect and love
on the part of those who knew US in
life. This Willie Hollaar accomplish
ed in the greatest measure.

STATE LEVY DOUBLED.

Information has been given out that
the new state tax levy will be los
per cent higher than last year. In
others words, as high as last years
taxes were, this years taxes will be
more than double for state purposes.
The Independents charge the respon-
sibility to the league, and the league
charges it to the independents. Take
your choice. In any case, the tax
payers will foot the bill.

Vote YES on all Initiated Laws
LEAGUERs DOUBLE-CROSs
THEMSELVES

In his campaign speeches this year
Governor Frazier attacks viciously
the initiated measure for nonpartisan
election of state officials. In this he
is backed by other league speakers
and the league press throughout the
state.
In this connection it is worth while
recalling. that this principle was en-
bodied in the original farmers FRO
gram" and to the legislature Of 1917
Governor Frazier had this to say
about it in his message:
believing that national political
party affiliations should not be con-
sidered in the election of county and
state officers and that the best inter
est Of the greatest number Of people
can be served by the use of nom
partisan ballot, recommend that our
election laws be amended to provide a
non-partisan ballot for all county
Legislative and state Offices. !"
"A bill to this effect was introduced
by the present Lieutenant Governor
Wood and Anthony Walton, jointly,
but now Governor Frazier says it will
ruin the party machinery, and Mr..
Wood threatens to resign his office
(where he has nothing more to do)
|if the non-partissn ballot measure is
adopted by the people, whose best in
terest it, according to Governor Fra
zier, is intended to serve.
The league also enacted the recall
election law itself. and now they are
bowling because the people are using
the law they made. h.

LEAGUE SPEAKERS FROM ALL
OVER

If bringing speakers into the field
from the greatest number of distant
points could win an election, rhe.
league would have walk-away The.
Courier News gives the datines for
the following nonresident ,rators:
"Coin" Har, ey, address not given.
H. F. Samuels, formar league
candidate for governor of Idaho.
Frederic C. Howe, Wasningt III, D..
C.
T. Cushing Daniels, New York.
Gutzon Borglum, New York. !;
Geo. F. Comings, Wisconsin.
Glen Plumb, Chicago. :.
c. c. Daniels, address not given.
Margaret Healy, Chicago.
Mrs. r. Gregg, Minneapolis.
The Independents have one outside
speaker, Gov. Preus, Of Minnesota.
The leaguers also have Tom Ayers
and party, of South Dakota. Added
to the above list are hundreds of en-
ployes such as our own John Worst
It can thus be seen that the league
easily has the long end Of the hot
air, if that will decide the issues.
Plumb and Howe were formerly as
sociated with Carl D. Thompson in
the Public Ownership League, of Chi
cago. Plumb is also the originator
of the so-called tri-partite plan of
management of the railroads known
as the Plumb Plan.
It looks as though the league has
the money this time-and the inde-
pendents have the votes.
