WHY A NoN.PARTIsAN LEAGUE

Those who may be asked by the
paid agents of Mr.. Townley to pay
$18 for the privilege of joining the
Non-Partisan League should look to
their eighteen bucks and find out
whether or not it is necessary to
part with the same in order to get
all that Townley promises-control
of the law-making machinery of the
state.
A poll of the state legislature
shows that both houses are domi-
mated by farmers, there being fifty
five in the house and sixteen in the
senate.
Thus it will be seen that any Iegis-
lation the farmers desire should be
easily accomplished. All that is
necessary is for some of the farmer
members to introduce a bill, get the
farmers back of it and she goes
through in a walk.
Mr.. Townley claims farmer con-
troll of the law-making body will do .
everything for the farmer, and that
is the only program he has to offer.
Therefore the farmers of Kansas
should be well cared for during the
present session of the legislature.
If they are not, who is to blame? ,
