The league editors take seri- ous- exceptions to the American Farm Bureau Federation, because it insists that actual farmers i —‘“men with their feet in the furrow”—rather | than hired spokesmen of the well known Townley ia type should speak for the farmer. i If the members of the American Farm Bureau Federation, who number 1,280,000, or about six times the present strength of the National Non- partisan league, are “Fake Farmers,” what, pray, are A. C. Townley and the lawyers three who ran the recent league state convention—Lawyer Lem- ke, Lawyer Wehe and. Lawyer Gannon—and Rev. George A. Totten, and Sisters Kate Richards O’Hare and Signe Lund, and Comrade W. A. An- person of the industrial commission, and “Dr.” Walter Thomas Mills and Comrade Charles Emil Stangeland of free love fame, and Comrade Roy- lance, the man who devised the present scheme of boosting farm taxes 300 percent? If these be the “real farmers,” then God save|' A ea North Dakota from the real farmer and give us ; the fake farmer of the Farm Bureau Federation type!

All of them cannot be right, nor can } an officer attacking a problem solely from a legal . standpoint consider the popularity of the stand he may be forced to take.

DAILY TRIBUNE. ‘Y, MARCH 6, 1920 delegates he is opposed to woman suffrage, any more than we are to be convinced that because an attorney of high caliber consents to defend a murderer he condones: murder. If there were no differences as to the construc: tion to be placed upon our laws, there would be no need for courts and lawyers. So long as our present systerff-seems to demand both, we must give each credit for consistency and honesty of purpose. J \ THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY - e automotive industry has become one of the big factors ‘in the development of Bismarck. With more than $5,000,000 worth of business in pros- pect for the current year, the automobile dis- tributors will add hundreds of thousands to the capital city’s financial resources. _ Bismarck’s fast growing importance as an au- tomobile center is winning the city recognition that could be gained in no other way. Men who have something to sell watch automobile statis- tics.’ They know that people who have the money to buy motor cars are well-to-do and that they can afford to buy other things. Therefore the fact that Bismarck can distribute $5,000,000 worth of automobiles in a single year means that it can successfully distribute other things, and those who have other things to sell will think of Bismarck when they plan their selling campaigns. WITH THE EDITORS _| RoE iia aE ee ee eee LIFTING THE DEMOCRATIC CURTAIN Attorney General Palmer-authorizes the use of his name in the Georgia primaries. Governor Cox is an open candidate .in Ohio. Mr. McAdoo’s; friends intend to place him on the primary ballots | in Oregon.. The president’s continued silence em- barrasses democratic candidates who know that the successful man must campaign largely upon| the record of the Wilson administration, but the democratic aspirants are slowly but surely being forced into the open. There is little to be gained| from the polite fiction that men like Palmer and McAdoo are not actual candidates, for the coun- try should have timely statements by all candi-! dates on the issues before it. When June arrives; we should know what the principal men in both rties stand for. ; = A parallel to the present situation in the demo- cratic party is afforded'by that in the republican party in 1908. Roosevelt was being assailed then, just as Wilson is being assailed now, but no re- publican candidate forgot for an instant the neces- | sity of standing staunchly on the Roosevelt rec- ord. The president early, though not unhesitat- ingly, announced that he would not accept. renom- ination: He was for a‘ brief space reluctant to. 1908: opened he told Postmaster General Meyer that he was undecided among Root, Taft and Cor- telyou. But his hesitation was short. By the beginning of February he was accused by certain senators and others of using the appointive power to further Taft’s candidacy. He issued a long de- nial. February 7, but this denial did not state that he was impartial. At the beginning of March both Ohio and Kansas instructed for Taft, the steady marshalling of Roosevelt forces behind the secretary was plain all over the country and it needed no seventh son of a seventh son to pre- dict his nomination.—New York Post. PRICE-HECHLER NUPTIALS George Price of this city and) Miss Clementine Hechler of Flasher were married yestrday morning at St. Mary’s rectory by Father Slat.
