The reading matter that — enters educational institutions controlled by tne state will first be man whose radicalism w: that the United States government was Yorced to recall him from Europe where he represented this country. These are the two outstanding re- sults of the appointment of A. G, Stangaland in charge of the public library commission by the state board of administration last week. It is undoubtedly one of the most bold and unblushing bit of “inside” work to foist red, rabid, radical socialism on the educational system of North Dako- ta, that this nonpartisan controlled board has ever attempted. Of course, in keeping with the Non- partisan league’s promise of the “New Day” and their efforts to let the pro- letariat rule and keep down expenses and see that the farmer is protected, Stangaland is only going to get $300 a month, $3600 a year, or considerably more than many of the elected state officials receive. This is another step in the plan to so socialize the educational institutions North Dakota’ be thoroughly saturated with the teach- ings of this absurd fallacy. ENCUMBERING FETTERS Leaders of the league have per- ently denied that it was their aim ‘o dominate the state’s educational ‘em with socialism but link, by link e chain is being forged to strongly that nothing but a complete overthrow of the present state government. will free the state’s educational system from these fetters, say many of the leading educational authorities in the state, vy Rey. George Totten, Sr, who has been twice unfrocked by the church he formerly was affiliated with because of his ultra red, rabid radicalism is the controlling influence in the board ot administration and the appointment of Stangaland is only another part of his perfected plan to put the education- al institutions wholly in the hands of she socialistic element in the state gov- eynment. “Inasmuch as all reading matter in the state institutions and libraries will be henceforth controlled by Stanga- land, it is pointed out that students from now on will only be able to read those books which meet with the ap- proval of the most radteal ’soclafists in the Nonpartisan league. This is something that the rank and file which makes up the membership of the league have not bargained for, it is said, and a few more appointments of this. type is bound to cause a big split up with- in the league itself when their import is learned by the farmers throughout the state who have supported the league in the past.

If you have cash, build houses—rents will pay good interest upon your investment. ' If those in the city who have money idle, or at best earning only a small rate of interest, will look into this mat- ter they will find an-opportunity to make certain of secur ing a good rate of interest from same. It is true that building costs have very materially increased during the past few years.” To offset this increased cost of construction rents are at a high point.
