money. Especially this year, wnen
all candidates, whether they file
for the primary election or for the
general election only, have TO pay
filing fees. The cost to file the IL
candidates of the farmers and the
workers amounts to more than
$17O. This sum has been paid, but
more than half of it had to be
borrowed and has to be paid back
soon.
All Communist candidates are
poor farmers and workers. This,
of course, means that they are
unable to pay the exhorbitant fees
themselves. The Communist Par
ty, a party composed out of work
ers and farmers, the poorest and
most exploited strata of humanity,
has no big treasury with which to
pay for election campaigns. For
these reasons, the Communist Par
ty states, the party has to rely on
farmers and workers to finance its
struggles and campaigns.
The Plentywood Section of the
c. P. is circulating the collection
lists that state as follows:

Herald Spreads RumOrs
In order to confuse people an
to destroy the rapidly increasing
confidence of farmers and worker
in the Communist candidates, tt
Plentywood Herald, the officii
organ of Roosevelt and his Mai
street supporters, is spreadin
SANDER and malicious rumol
about these candidates.
In last weeks issue the edit
of the Herald states: "But tn
Communists like the Stalwart R
publicans, are having their diff
Hulties too. No sooner had the
list of candidates been agreed upC
than one of their number refuse
to accept the endorsement. Ma
nus Danielson, prominent Dagmi
farmer, who two years ago wa
Communist candidate for count
commissioner, said he would n
oppose Niels Madsen for Gle
and recorder. 1t is also understo
that one of the candidates endors
for the state legislature would n
accept"
None of these statements al
true. Magnus Danielson has fill
for Clerk and Recorder on tt
Communist ticket and he as W
as the party is confident that
will beat Niels Madsen in the ca
paign. Magnus has never definit
ly refused to run on the G.
ticket. At a mass meeting
farmers of his own community
stated that he would rather I
run since he was convinced tn
there were better men than
who could score victory.
The farmers at this time 81
gested Alfred Jensen as a can
date for clerk and recorder.
the meeting Alfred Jensen q
neither say yes or no to t
nomination. It took him long
make up his mind. He finally
fused to run for the particular
flee. It is expected that he v
make public the reasons for his
fusal.
What the Herald "understan,
regarding a Communist candid
for the state legislature also la
the slightest basis Of fact. HI
ever, we understand that the p
aid will continue its misstateme
and lies in order to defeat b
Communist and Republican car
dates.
