Tho other IS: ''When's Congress

The first question is answered in
several stereotyped fashions. The
other Is answered by guessing any
where between April is and June Is.
It's just = guess, because things
may happen to change the mind Of
Roosevelt, the mind Of Congress or
both. But your correspondent Is
guessing that adjournment will come
nearer the middle Of April than the
middle Of June.

Disturbing the Dead
(Aneta PanOramal


The ghost OF 1920 is beginning to
haunt our governor. And, before the
month OF June rolls around ghost
haunting Is going to get keener and
stronger. Already are they digging up
skeletons OF 1920 In the shape of a
book written by Mr.. LANCER; a maya
zine called The Red Flame, printed
during those hectic days; what the
farmer-owned newspapers had to say
about Mr. LANCER at that time, and
various other little and big ghosts,
all becoming more powerful as time
goes Onto the June primaries.
The Williams County Farmers
Press, OF Williston, owned now, as we'll
as in 1920. by several hundred farm
er Leaguers in that section, devoted
better than half page Of its last
weeks issue in digging up records of
the past in the nature of articles
printed in the press at that time.
It makes interesting reading-but
not TO Mr.. LANCER, we are sure.
Here Is one ghost that is going to
do considerable haunting for Mr..
LANCER:
"the attorney general
WIN. Langer) savagely attacked
the NonpartiSan League, the con-
sumers stores, farmers banks,
farmers newspapers and the farm
ers postdated checks But
the record is even more startling
IN Langer's office. When Lang
er took his job in 1917, there we're
only five employees in the attor-
ney generals office, including two
assistants. The monthly payroll
totaled at that time $4,000. The
story now Is vastly different. Last
month there we're 81 employees in
the attorney generals department,
and the payroll last month was
s4,33O78."
In view Of the fact that Nystul, the
Leagues executive chairman, was re-
Gently accused in the columns of The
Leader, Mr.. Langer,s personal news
paper, Of having travelled on the same
train with Happy Paulson," thus
aiming to show collision with the
enemies OF the League, the following
excerpt will no doubt be interesting:
During the latter part
Of the session LANCER was found
in frequent conferences with one
Happy" Paulson, a press agent
for the interests fighting the in
dustrial program
Hence, it seemed quite proper and
fitting for LANCER to be seen with
Happy" Paulson in 1920, but it is
collision and treason for Nystul to
be on the same train with Happy
in 1894. How times do change. AS
a matter Of fact. Mr.. Nystul did not
know Happy was on the train until
they arrived at Bismarck, and had he
known it. it wouldn't be a crime to
speak with some one who holds diff
ferent views In politics.
This is only the beginning. AS
time goes on VIM. Langer's ghost of
1920 will continue to haunt him and
bring out facts, (NOT The Leader
