Fargo, N. D., May 28—Attorney Gen- eral Wm. Langer, republican candi-| date for governor, yesterday after-! noon and last night wound up his first | political speaking engagements in the southeastern corner of the state with} stirring speeches and, tremendous} crowds at Stirum and Hankinson in! Sargent county. R. H. Gallagher, candidate for at- torney general, is making the tour with Mr. Langer and is making a hit as a stump speaker. The turn out:at: these meetings exceeded those at the! recent Frazier-League meetings. | Joins Radicals At Hankinson, Mr. Langer charged Frazier less th two weeks ago toured the eastern states} as a representative of the committee of 48 which speaks for the rel radi-; cals. of the nation, He produced [.!

Valley y bank scandal, the Scandi navian-American bank deal in Fargo, and the treatment of Miss Minnie J.' Nielson at the hands of the governor) and other tools of the league bosses. In conclusion, he showed by docu-, mentary evidence how Lemke, Wood | and Townley absolutely controlled the Nonpartisan league management by downright chicanery. Mr. Gallagher made a strong im- pression on his audience by ing statements regarding the aff: the Bank.of North Dakota, showing that it was almost impossible tor farmers to get loans, but that land speculators could easily get all the money they wanted through this’ bank.! He especially mentioned that an uncle of Congressman John Baer’s wife, an eastern land speculator,. McMahon who has never lived in the state bor- rowed $50,000 on sandy land property near Beach. He cited of many other cases with reference to loan opeéra- tions and charged that men in control of the bank are using the taxpayers) money for building up a personal financial machine by means of press! sure on other bankers in North Da-) kota, Scores Hit ‘Mr. Gallagher’s reference to A. C. Townley’s habit of “just-packing-his- grip-and-going-away” brought forth cheers in every address. He used this when telling of Townley’s wild cat schemes at Beach, how he treated the farmers and on every occasion would; skip out for a year or more and then! come back. Some day he will do the, same with you farmers of North Da-' kota, said the candidate for attorney general. Stirum Meeting Good The Langer meeting at Stirum, Sar- gent county, was a tremendous suc- cess. Farmers motored in from points all around. The crowd was entirely too big for the hall so it was decided to have an open air meeting in a near- by grove. Kven league members ad- mit that both’ Mr. Langer and Mr. lagher are making big hits. A. Thompson entertained Langer and his party after the Hankinson meeting and brought them to Stirum. From Bismarck comes the story that the venerable member of the Su court of North Dakota, Justice James ; Robinson, is willing to support at yeast some of the anti-Townley candi- dates at the coming primaries.
