Illogical Union

Judging from the first utteranccs of the pro
posed Farmer Labor party in North Dakota the
extremists believe they can interest the farmers
in program that has for its ultimate aim the
abolition Of capitalism and the destruction of pri-
vatc ownership
Farmer Labor is just IA euphonious title for
Socialism Of an extreme type. The organ of the
new movement rcitcratcs practically the program,
Of the international Socialists with Il few com
munistic flourishcs. There is to be naturalization,
or government ownership of practically every pub.
lie utility.
Then Of course will follow the dream of the
socialists for ages the naturalization Of the land
In such tic-up the farmer, who is a capitalist in
every Of the word, will find himself contrbut
: ing to his destruction. If the theory of the
Farmer Labcritcs is followed out to it's logical
clusion every agency Of production would be owned
by the state and operated primarily for the benef,
of the worker. The tools would belong to the state
and each worker would enjoy equal returns from
the profits Of labor when the utopia is
brought about through the ballot otherwise.
How the farmer and the laborcr can travel the
same political path very far is not apparent AS Il
rule the laborcr seeks to purchase cheaply a.
possible all the products of the soil from the wages
secured through the sale to the farmers Of labor
products at the highest possible prices. The more
the farmers be squeezed for the products of
labor the more labor enjoy the fruits Of its toll
AS as Walter Thomas Mills made his
theories plain to the farmers of North Dakota this
state very unhealthy place of abode for the
militant socialist. The program he preached was
repudatcd by the Nonpartsan League when
the more conservative element purged their ranks
Of the clique which is now seeking to stage a come
back under the banners Of Farmer Labor party
North Dakota had horde CT Socialists going up
and down the state preaching communism and ma
tionalization of industry along the lines of Soviet
Russia until Townley, fearing the end of his
reign near, sent them scamperng to other
fields
Coz. Sorlie and his associates who seek a sane
solution of the agrarian policies Of North Dakota
have refused to feed class prejudice CT hatred 70,
votes They hope out of this final struggle will
come a progressive Republican party purged OF
who really are Socialists and Communists and
never had any place in the affairs of the farm

est aggregation of capital in the world.

Editorial Comment
SOrlie's Administration
Matt D;orno. D,.o..A

A. G. Sorlie has now been at the head of the
North Dakota State government long enough that
a fair idea may be had to his policies and thus
the voter has had opportunity to study the stu
alton and decide to whether it would be fer the
best interests Of the State or not to have these
policies continued and voice his decision at the polls
both this spring and fall.
1t is very evident that Gov. Sorc has not won
any great love from the radical element of either
the League the Independents. Elected as a
Lacquer, Mr.. Sore has bitterly disappointed many
of the more radical leaders in both his policies and
we suspect, but his col,servativcncss and caution
has not met with the approval Of those leaders who
were for going ahead regardless Of the result. OF
course it was not to be expected that he would be
approved by those who bitterly opposed to
the League program, that their only wish to
see it entirely overthrow as possible.
Gov. SOrlie proposed, in his campaign speeches,
THAT we hold what we have and not start any new
thing until those already under way have proven
their worth to the people Of the whole State, and
We believe the Governor has made serious effort
to carry out that promise and that in following this
course, he has given the State of the best ad
ministrations have had in many years.
/ Just recently Mr.. Sorlie has come out with {
statement that, in his opinion, this policy is best
for the near future. prove all things and hold
fast to that which is good is very good basis
upon which to build an administration.

Butting in on Teacher

The $4,000 school-teachers who met at Washing.
ton at the convention of the National Education.
Association served the best interests Of the whole
nation when they passed resolution warning law
making bodies of all varieties to keep their hands
off the schOOlroOms
"Only that education can be Free the resolution
declared, (which provides, under conditions appro-
pirate to the age of the student complete liberty
TO seek the answer TO amy honest question" 1t
added that legislation designed to influence what
cannot be taught in classroom can impede
progress but cannot shut off the light of youth.
These are fairly obvious truths, but they need re-
stating from time to time
Theoretically, Of course, the people who pay the
taxes have the full and unquestioned right to say
what will be taught in their schools. And yet il is
"a right that Should not often be exercised.
The whole theory of great educational system,
with its splendid public schools and great state uni
versities, is to provide young people with a
training and education that will make them
better people than We are; that will enable them to
avoid the pitfalls we stumbled into to steer clear
Of the mistakes and blndnesses that have marked
our own travels. We are building for the future,
and to do so we must always aim at system that
will make each generation little wiser and more
capable than the one before.
And to carry out such a scheme it is essential
tnaC the work IN the nanuS OF experts, trained
men and women who have made study and teaching
their life work, who know about such things
than the rest of US know.
Yet if our city councils, state legislatures
tional congress keep buttng in and insisting This
you may teach but this you may not teach" tha
whole plan is ruined.
In other words, we requiring our teachers
not to profit by mistakes, not IT, give chill
dren a better training than we received we are
making it inevitable that our children will have
better chance in life than we ourselves had. And
what father worthy Of the name did not want his
son to be a better man than he was?
DIR. Alexander Meklejohn spoke in somewhat the
same vein before the Rotary Club at Madison. Wis.
the other day He compmented his hearers for
the freedom that is to be found at the University
Of Wisconsin, and said:
f4ln place like this one dares hope that sym
6sthy and insight are Bringing and will bring the
dficuties that confront the scholar under control
