FARMER-LABOR CANDIDATE

State Senator

is perfect: he is capable of hold
ing is own in any body, and he
knows what it is all about.
Representatives
Then the two candidates for
representatives: Andy Hansen and
Hans Hardersen. Both these men
have experience and ability. Both
can think on their feet; both have
been tried and proven in many i'm
portant places. They have the
ability to represent the people in
Sheridan county next winter.
If any one says that the repub-
lican candidates stand for the
same things these candidates
stand for you can laugh-the other
candidates are republican candi-
dates, the bankers and railroad:
candidates. they will support anC
maintain the system: they are no
your candidates.

The convention nominated Ed

delegates that Syverud was a can

nominated. Afterwards Mr.. Syver-

executive committee of the Farm

and it could have selected no fin

scribes the attitude of the farmer.
Bewilderment and amazement that
prices for grains should sink to the
low levels they have reached are
expressed by the growers. There
is less of bitterness than bewilder-
ment.
"At another elevator, shipping
10 a private grain commission
firm and not cooperative, was
written, Hoover Prosperity stand
ing on One Legge,' as indicative OF
the bitterness Of the battle with
the co-operatives for the grain
business.
"a 1000 mile trip to grain ele-
vators of Minnesota, Montana and
the Dakotas indicated that farm
ers are selling only as much wheat
as they are forced to sell. They
are storming on farms, in local
elevators and at terminals to a
larger extent than ever before
However, many are forced to sell
their wheat at any price they car
get to pay up labor and store bills
and taxes.
ain some cases farmers have
hauled their grain to the local ele
vator, looked over the prices, anC
hauled their grain back to thu
farm. One man paid a combine
harvesting bill of $195 for 49,
acres of wheat near Sanish a
an extremely low combine rate o
$3.50 an acre and received $40
for the wheat from that land. H
would have saved 800 by touching
match to the grain or turning
livestock to feed in it, but had eX
pected larger yield. This is a
extreme case, but not unusual j
some sections of western Mort
Dakota and Montana.
This argument was put up t
one farmer: Farmers are not til
only ones suffering from poo
business conditions. Other indu
Z ties have been hurt. Sugar, co
ton rubber, copper and other con
modities are relatively as low /;
wheat. Don't you think that i
dustry has suffered as much?

For County Superintendent of
Schools the farmers nominated Ell
ma Brinkman of the Quitmeyer

Sheridan county's most highly re-

ers. Miss Brinkman came to Sher-
idan county when quite a little
girl. She went to the district !
school in Quitmeyer precinct until !
she finished her grade work, then
she graduated from high school
and went to normal, then returned |
to Sheridan county where she has
successfully taught school for
number of years in the country
and village schools. She is very
popular teacher has a charming
personality, is capable and indus
trious land has business acumen.
She knows rural schools from ev-

make a first class superintendent
of schools and in a three conered
race her election is concluded for
she will get the Famer-LabOr vote
solid and the opposition is divided
: between two candidates.
Coroner
For Coroner the farmers nomi-
mated Ed. Hannah of Raymond, a
popular Farmer-Labor party man
of that precinct. Ed. Hannah is

who know him best like him best,
