NEW OFFICIALS WILL
TAKE "SEATS" JAN. 9

Tuesday, Jan. 8, 1928, is the day
when the elected officials Of Dickin-
son county will be inaugurated into
office for new or additional terms.
The second Tuesday In January Is
the day.
All officials of the county are
"taken in" at this time except the
county treasurer and the county su-
perintendent Of instruction. The
treasurer does not take up his new
duties until October following the
election and not until the first siege
of tax paying Is over. The county
superintendent Is inaugurated In
June following the close Of school.
According to H. w. King, county
clerk, his office carries with 1t the
duty of swearing In the new officials.
In view Of the rumpus made over the
purchase of flowers at Gov. Aliens
inaugural it Is not likely that any In
augural ball or other ceremonies will
be held Probably it will be too cold
for speeches from the court house
steps and the procedure will be de-
cidedly simple. especially as only two
new officers go in at that time. Paul
Roger as county attorney, and w.
A. Mourer as commissioner. II how
ever the officials feel "can" to
crate, the court room will be heated,
the band will be ordered out and they
may churn up the atmosphere to
their hearts content.

ANOTHER PROPAGANDA GONE
g g g g 9 9 9 e g 9, g $ 9

San Bernardino Telegram: Disclo-
sures made by the former editor of the
official paper of the Nonpartisan
League indicate that this experiment
in applied Socialism has gone the same
road with its more pretentious and
vicious brother in Russia. Opponents
of Socialism long ago argued the pro
paganda would fall of its own weight
once it was given trial and that the
more rabid its proponents the earlier
would be their discontinue. The event
always ultimately justifies that pre-
diction.
1t is not difficult to fool the Ameri-
can farmer part of the time but II:
native shrewdness can gauge IN prac-
tice the fallacies he was unable to
discern when they were merely theor
les. His common sense always returaf
and the propaganda that has failed to
give him anything of value ultimately
loses his support. The Nonpartisan
League was the Moses that was to lead
him into the Promised Land. Since i
has failed, it must disappear.
Distrust of existing leadership IS cit
ed as one of the reasons for the with
drawal of support by the farmer mem
bers of the league but the possibility
of changing the leadership evidenca
the trouble lies deeper than that.
Nonpartisan League has failed becaE
it could not match performance
promise.
