campaign Elect men where YOU can
you can elect the Legislature, you car
elect the state officers you now hold
II office, and perhaps one man on the
Industrial Commission, because If we
are not opposing them for governor
they will not dare attack our other
officers. But we are not renouncine
our right to elect a governor, attor-
ney general or any one else, and il
at the end of two years they have
failed to carry out our program, we
are coming back and will take every
office and keep them for twenty years.
The politicians will be dead before
they get an office again. N. .s. .s
At the close Of his speech, Mr..
ToWnley asked for questions, Many
men and women wore d thoughtful ex-
preston, but none spoke against the
plan. One or two demanded to know
It it was plan to elect McC Cumber,
in answer Mr.. Townley said HSurely
no one believes that. Our plan is to-
on the opposition, thereby reducing
campaign expenses for us. If we do
not run q full ticket the opposition
will run two or more candidates for
every office, and as / have pointed
out, will not dare attack us for this
reason" i. sss
+ The Capitol city wore the appear
ance of Legislatives session days.
Groups of men were gathered on
street corners and in hotel lobbies,
the plan for two days fol-
lowing the meeting, while many spir-
tied sessions were held in secret meet
ing places. While there were some
who continued to oppose the plan,
most approved of it, especially was
this found to be true among farmers
and business men, who had heretofore
believed that the League was chiefly
in arousing class hatred in
the state. Townley's generous offer to
meet the opposition half way, and al
low them an opportunity to prove
their ability to carry out the pro-
gram threw a bombshell into the OPP
position camp. It is expected that the
Burleigh county convention when it
meets on the 10th will send an unin-
structed delegation to the State con-
1ention, but it appears likely that the
convention will go on record in favor

Many matters of interest and irn-
portance relative to the coming Coun-
ty Fair were discussed and agreed
upon at this meeting, such as approval
of dates selected at the Grain Belt
Circuit meeting IN Fargo and of the
attractions planned, etc.
1t was decided to endeavor to get
riding devices this year such as Mer-
ry-Go-R Round, Ferris Wheel, etc. In
dependently instead Of having to take
on a Carnival Company In order to
get these rides. Riding devices are
looked upon as quite necessary to the
program in staging a fair, and it is
hoped that the same can be secured.
The other five fairs In the Grain Belt
Circuit have agreed to take the Carn-
ival again, thinking it win not be pos,
sible to get rides independently. This
remains to be determined ID the near
future. a@f
The matter of County School Ex-
hlbit was discussed and a classification
as submitted to the Grain Belt Cir
cult and State meetings and adopt
ed by them in SO far as local condi-
tions will permit of carrying the idea
into effect. 1t was decided TO leave
this matter to the County Superinten-
dent of Schools, Mrs. Johnston and
the Secretary to work out taking the
facilities for exhibiting into considera-
ton. ~ ,ss
The matter of securing a good band
for the Fair came in for discussion
and Mr.. Cameron was delegated to
make arrangements with. the West
hope Band for the three days of the
Fair, and if suitable contract can be
obtained this band will be secured. The
Westhope Band consists of thirty
pieces, uniformed and from informa-
tion we have will be splendid draw
ing card for the Fair.
A resolution was passed urging the
Rules Committee of the House of Re-
presentatives, Washington, to get ac-
tion ON the Seed and Feed bill now
before Congress and to pass the same
with an adequate appropriation To.
meet the demands of farming condi-
tions, and the secretary instructed to

feels that the peak of
adversely has been reached and with
a partial readjustment and better
times ahead that from now on the Bot

that keen interest win be taken by
patrons in its continued success. Every
