THE SAME SHOW WITH A NEW CAST

In an editorial on Sept we suggested to the financial
and spiritual hackers of the United Front Political Party
"to get couple directors, better STILL entire
cast to carry the performance and possible to
make it a musical show.
To our satisfaction find that these tips have been
followed at least in part Practically an entire new cast
has been selected this time not by any mass convention
but by the wire puers directly to fool the farmers on
Nov. g.
Eight candidates of the original slate of this camou
aged Manistreet party have resigned several Of whom
had never asked whether they would be willing give
their any show like this. This is tough luck for
the promoters because after ALL these original candidates
could appear-at least to people had neither
heard of the ass convention having been nominated
by convention and therefore representing SOMEBODY
These candidates really quite unfortunate no
convention, not eightman convention nominated
them they representing anybody but themselves
But STILL we might be mistaken Somebody is financ-
ing the enterprise with hundreds of dollars According to
Mr. Moe Mainstreet doing it and he ought to know.
There is another OF reasoning that leads to the
conclusion that this United Front Party is representing
the interests of the Manseet politicians and reaconares
Let's ask this question: Who possibly benefit by votes
gathered by these people?
They themselves point to their program and maintain
that the farmers will benefit But the program is stolen
and the statement lie because their efforts to steal the
Communist ticket at the primary and their huge
VentOn of eight should the most stupid
their group that they have not the slightest chance of
getting elected They know and their purpose only to
catch few Communist votes and thereby increase the
chance for MIR. Folks to stay in office.
And Harry Polk needs this support badly enough. His
candidates who perfectly able to change their po
cal opinion like changes shirt be republicans yeser
day and democrats today will have little harder time
Nov. than they had at the primary.
Two years ago the North Dakota publisher tried the
stunt the election of his candidates To-
gether with his friends Pat Wallace and Robert Larsen he
introduced the Liberty party to Sheridan county voters
split the votes of the farmers and workers and defeat the
representative Red ticket of the radical element in the
county He succeeded Without the Liberty party, Main
streets fusion ticket would have been beaten and real
representatives. of the workers and farmers would have
ried the administration of the county.
Again. it seems, Mr. Polk has hired the people tt
engineer this United Front election stunt Honorable
Robert Larsen of Qumeyer, onetme LWW organizer anC
soapboxer socialist politician and office seeker twice
Der of the Montana legislature the FarmerLbor ticket
Communist renegade and what not manager of the fax
show and top candidate of the slate.
Most likely also Pat Wallace will again lend helping
hand as he did two years ago with the Lberator Thi
year he calls his sheet The Militant Farmer" which ap
pears regularly at election time under other
But it is most unlikely that Mr.. Polk is able to foe
most of the people all of the time Those voters VIII
supported his Liberty party two years ago still have ba
taste in their mouth and certainly not going to max
the mistake twice
At this election the lines drawn sharply Those VIII
have special privileges defend the rabbits and reaction
aries and those who afraid of the terrible Reds b
they don't know any better and unable to thin
for themselves will vote for Harry Folks democrats.
Farmers and workers, the other hand, all those VIII
are suffering under the most insane economic condition
those who in spite of the fact that they have toed
labored all their lives find themselves today relief
who sick and tired of system that brings sarv
ton and unemployment to millions just because there tt
much all those will vote Communist Even small bushes
men, school teachers and professionals they mental
alert and without the preudces of their Glass; people WI
can and think for themselves will support the Con
munist program and vote for the Communist candidates
