PAGE EIGHT THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE LIEDERBACH IN STATE AGAIN IS READY 10 FIGHT Issues Statement Commending Arrhus of Courier-News for Paper’s Stand ASSAILS A. C. TOWNLEY Row in Nonpartisan League Continues Unabated as State Convention Nears The row in the Nonpartisan league between. the majority of the state com- mittee headed by A. A. Liederbach and A. C, Townley with his “balance of power” plan continues. Liederbach has just’ returned from California, and in the Courier-News, he has the fol- lowing to say: Having just returned from a two months’ stay on my little farm and orchard in California, where I have been actively engaged in farm work the past month, I suppose it is ex- pected of me, both by friends and enemies, within and without the League, to make some sort of a statement upon political affairs and the Nonpartisan Teague. First of all, I Yind that there is some criticism ‘of the podicy pur- gied by The Courigr-News? in) my absence. I have but owe criticism, to make, and that is that¥what was said was not made twice ag strong, and that the criticism’:handed ‘out. was not t as hot. I°feel that The Courier-News has done the right thing at the right time. I approve fully everything it has said of the deplorable situation which has arisen in the League and { think. as time goes on that there willbe’ ample justification for every attack, it,made. If the League is in danger of dying because one or two individuals have their feathers ruffled, it isn’t the League,I take it to be. The 1 item I find is consider- able criticism of the actions of Mr. Pp. L. Aarhus, who was placed as business manager of The Courier- Ne We have had sneers as to the “democratic” nature of the present League administration, because “one man” wag put in charge of The Courier-News and told to run it, The men who appointed Mr, Aarhys were themselves elected by the peo- ple. That was SOMETHING NEW in League government. Up till, then the leaders had arpointed themselves and then appointed other officials. It was nevessary to appoint a respon- sible man to rv- the paper. The committee did not feel. qualified to conduct it, even had’ they all been able to remain here on the job. What do the critics of Mr. Aarhus want? a Ee 1!

Or have they some good communist or red out of Texas or New York to put in charge? Democ- racy is functioning all right. When the president wants to enforce the law in North Dakota he is not able to come here himself. So he ap-} points an attorney and a sheriff— we call him U. S, Marshal—who at- tends to business for him. But he takes care to be elected by the people]. himself first. The majority of the committee on meeting today found that Mr. Aarhus had served us very very acceptably and very ly—and in ‘serving us, we mean serving the farmers of this state whom we represent. Deny Ambition tured as a kaiser ag a man desiring to take Townley’s place and make my- self a boss and master of the or- ganization, with dictatorial powers. Others, no les3_ kind, point out that 1 am ambitious and want office, and have planned that I am about to grab the U. S. senatorship or the govern- orship. It may be useless to deny that I am a kaiser or that I want to dic- tate. Yet I do deny it. I have no desire nor INTENTION of dictating anything, I will not be party to the “making of a slate.” I have no pet candidates for any office. I am tied up to no man or set of men who are candidates for office. I merely de- sire to serve the members who elect- ed me to the office of member of the state executive commitigte, arf (0 give them my most faithful, watchful and efficient service, protecting the interests of the League and de- fending it against all the wiles and tricks of its enemies, withjn and without. That is a big enotigh job for me without trying to dorfitiate, boss or play emperor to the rest of the forty thousand. I am not a candidate for any office. I said that in a published interview September 22, 1921—and1 repeat it now. I think that it would be ex- ceedingly bad taste on my, part to retain .the present position with the League and reach out after a state job. If I snould become a candidate —and that won't be this year—it will only be after I have completed my work on the state executive commit- tee, I find that I am held up as a con- spirator or something of the sort, or as having a secret understanding with William Langer, whereby I am to try to restore him to office and to the good graces of the League. That is untrue, of course, My opinion of Mr. Langer ig the same NOW as it was when he deserted the farmers. He may have compelled our commit- tee to make a retraction—but he can. not make me change my mind. That! retraction was not in the nature of a friendly compromise. It was the hard exaction of a. political adver- sary. Diserediting Officials I have noticed Mr, Townley’s am- bition to discredit the former indus- trial commission, Messrs. Frazier, Hagan and ‘Lemke. 1 wonder how good Leaguers can sit and listen: to him. If he. can discredit them and destroy their popularity, it will be for office at the state convention and more easy to leave the vacancies in the ticket that his balance of power scheme demands, So desperate is he that he does not hesitate to injure any man or organization, to accom~ plish his purpose.

It was no greene er than many another new punen of politica). “piijeers just ptiies n— even if Fi Hey did’ pick “it’"In other words, when he complains of the poor stuff he picked, he is unconsciously reflecting upon his own ability as a picker and arguing that, if as a picker, he,fell down what, guarantee have we that he won’t make just as poor a success at picking the loft-dried, kiln- dried politicians who he.now wants to handle thé’ League -program?

Picking Green Timber u I have smileG when I read Mr. Townley’s comparison of the state officers the League elected to green! timber, knot-holed and warped. Who nicked ‘that timber? Who picked William\ Langer and Tom Hall and all the stuff that warped on us? He knows who wag in supreme power and would brook no: interference With his imperial will. Yet it appears that I am credited by some critics with having “my finger n the pie.” Delegates to the 118 convention will remember that I remonstrated against some of Townley’s hand-picked can- didates, and in no uncertain terms. All timber is green until seasoned. It fs true in business and in all hu- man enterprises.

FRE BY we GREAT SPECTACLE “Queen of Sheba,” a William Fox super-special directed by J. Gordon Edwards, came to the Rialto Theater Monday. It created a profound im- pression upon the first day audiences, and bids fair to prove the most talked- of photodrama of the season. The pageantry attending the arrival of the Queen of Sheba at the court of King Solomon, which has held its place for centuries in song and story as supremely magnificent, is visual- ized in the picture drama in a man- ner completely satisfying to all. There is scene after scene of great beauty and magnificence in “Queen of. court of King Armud, the arrival at or Your Better Health “1 advise every worst ianay (rouble vo Uy Foley ealeey Pale ‘Mrs. Browner, of Cleveland, Obio, “Tcan thank Foiey Kid ‘Detter, much: stronger tania zee John F.

HARRY MYERS CASA IN PREVOST SUPPORT “Nobody’s Fool” comes to the Capi- tol Theater tonight with the vivaci- ous Marie Prevost as the star. Sup- Sorting Miss Prevost is Harry Myers, the famous “Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court,” and a star in ‘his own right. This combination of comedy talent promiges' to make “Njbody’s Fool” tone of the hits of the season. Shunned by the smart set of fash- ionable Barton College, poor Polly Gordon almost mpped her little life away. She danced like a Barracuda out of its element, but even her beau- ty was hidden under the forbidding blemish of a large pair or tortoise shell glasses. Then came the deluge. Money rained into her life. A nice old aunt had died, leaving poor Polly heir 4) a million dollar estate. And then you should have seen the boys run. They sped like the fire chief going home to lunch. ‘But Polly had made up her mind about men—she decided she didn’t like them. She went to a little out-of- the-way mountain cabin to escape. Artemus Alger of literary tendencies had the same caustic opinion in re- gard to the nicer sex. But Fate left an open switch, and Polly Gordon and Artemus Alger collided. ‘ SUES FOR DIVORCE “St.Paul, Minn.,-March 7—Mrs. Clara Fortune, 34, filed suit for divorce from her husband, George Fortune, alleging . \ “GREATEST ‘AUTOMOBILE VALUE IN AMERICA .e was in the habit of assaulting her. ‘hey were married at Bismarck, N. ‘D., November 30, 1921, and have one child. % ‘OR RENT—Modern furnished room, 216 2nd S.
