Two years ago Hans Hardersen
run on the Farmer-Labor ticket
for State Representative. This
wear he was nominated for sheriff
on the Communist ticket.
Hans Hardersen was born IN
Schlesvig- Holstein, Germany, in
1882. When Hans was six months
old his parents emigrated to the u.
5. and settled down in Clinton,
Iowa, where the father worked as
harness maker and upholsterer.
After graduating from school
Hans went to work as carpenter,
cement worker and farmer in
Iowa and Nebraska. In 1911 he
came to Montana and filed on the
homestead near Archer where he
is now living. Later he married
Grace Morgan, the daughter of j.
j. Morgan who was one of his
neighbors. To them have been
born three children. two girls and
a boy.
Hans Hardersen understands the
problems of the farmers and the
workers. He has been both. AL
though he is a good farmer and
hard worker he is now facing the
same conditions as practically all
of US, where he can no longer pay
his taxes and interest, and it is
only matter of time when some
body will try to also take his land
and home away from him and his
family.
With foreclosure, sheriffs sales
and evictions facing practically all
of US, the election of a sheriff is
at this time of the greatest inn
portance to the farmers. Hans
Hardersen is known all over the
county, known as a man who has
always stood in the front ranks in
the farmers fights. He is known
by the farmers as being fearless
and man they can depend on at
all times. That's the reason they
picked him for their sheriff.
Hans goes into the campaign
with the full understanding and
determination that he will protect
the farmers and workers inter
est first of all. He is fully in har-
mony with the United Farmers
Leagues slogan: "That. there shall
be no more sheriffs sales and evic'
tions of poor farmers" And he
has the CUTS TO go thru with it.
Hans Hardersen was one of the
leaders who took a leading par
in the county agent fight and the
feed and seed loan racket. He has
always taken a leading part
whenever the farmers interests
were at stake. The farmers anC
workers know this and are going
to rally around him. He is going
/ to be their sheriff.

FORD SPEAKER AT
LABOR DAY MEET
In FLEETWOOD

On Monday many had wished for
a shower of rain, but we did not
get it, the sun was shining bright,
it was a nice day and farmers
were busy threshing and combining
and not many could take time to
go and listen to James w. Ford,
our candidate for vice president on
the Communist ticket, speak at the
Farmer-Labor Temple in the after
noon.
About four hundred attended the
meeting and all agreed that Com
rade Ford gave an unusually good
talk. What made it very interest
ing to many was the way he ex-
planned how the white producers
workers and farmers as well,
would never be able to better their
conditions as long as Negro work
ers could be hired for less wages
than white ones, and Negro farm
ers producing under a lower stan
dard of living than the white
farmers. Instead of competing
with one another the two races
should unite and help one another
and that the capitalist class is do
ing all in its power to keep black
and white apart and hating one
another i norder to keep { them
selves in power.
Comrade Ford is a well educated
man of wide experience, has spent
lot of time in Russia and has
studied conditions there and trav,
eled all over Europe as a speaker
He is a working class leader and
a good one. At the next election
the workers and farmers will rally
around him and VIM. 2. Foster.
That we here in Sheridan county
had chance to listen to speakers
like Foster and Ford is something
we can feel proud of. Candidates
for President and Vice President
only hit the high spots and Sheri'
dan county is one of them. Afte1
staying here over night and takins
in the dance at the Temple in tbs
evening comrade Ford left fol
Great Falls where his next meet
ing is to be held.
