Dear Editor, Tribune: Your editorial for November 14th, entitled “What of the Future, prompts me to ask space for a few remarks. I have admired the frankness of the arguments presented by the Tribune in discussing pro and con the League program of North Da- kota and you are absolutely right when you assert that “Campaigns can no longer be fought in North Dakota merely on the mistakes of the past.” Both the Recall and this last election were based and fought solely on the issue of alleged mistakes of: the League adminis-. tration. The issue in the future will be whether we shall have more public ownership or’ repeal the laws creating the Bank of North ‘Dakota, the Mill & | Elevator at Grand Forks, State Hail Insurance, State Workmen’s Compensation and the other branches of state insurance now. on our statute books. That there will be a .sys- tematic propaganda ‘staged from now on to prepare the public mind in general and the legislators in particular, for such a repeal is evident. The Tribune condemns the par- itlal or limited socialism as advo- \ cated by the Nestos faction as ‘promising upon principles. The wants to go in redeeming the state “engaging “in competitive Do you mean to g0 back to pre-League conditions, or ido you wish to wipe out other equally socialistic institutions, such jas public schools, highways and But if these protests and signs are not sufficient the ridges, prison twine plants, etc.? members of the ‘4 business writer.

Would the Tribune ‘and the rest, who fight the League {Program of public ownership, want {to see the St. Lawrence Canal pro- jjJect promoted and run on the com- ‘petitive plan by private capital or iby the Government? Does the Tribune regret the entrance of the |ereat bridge that now spans the /Missouri because it completely ‘knocked out . the Benton Packet ;Company’s ferry? Here is a strik- ing illustration of public ownership | (state socialism. if:you please) vs. (private competitive enterprise! It jis true that there will be some jealousy and friction-in placing | these state institutions such as you ‘Forks and Bismarck with reference ito the Mill & Elevator and the Bank of North Dakota, but this will not be any worse than past and e locating of state institutions. I have before me Bulletin No. 7, | Virginia Workmen’s Compensation pLaw, “Questions and answers for {ginia.” This means that. in that \state they think so much of the Workmen’s Compensation furnish- the League administration attempt- ed to introduce practical subjects like that in our schools, the hands No they are not, Dancing is a side- | poses, therefore, they are situated in | the school building.

It is surmised, however, that the reason for this discrimin- ation against North Dakota lies in ithe fact that the state elevators in |New York were built at the behest ; of the. grain trust, who use them | to store their grain held for export and better prices, while in North Dakota the program is asked for by the farmers. The Tribune finds it unpleasant to have the east “smile | at our little inconsistenciés.” But’ what about its, own big inconsist- ency? It calls! the Nestos faction ridiculous temporizers, but fails to ; map out the course it proposes to take itself or the limit of retrogres- | sion advocated, In my opinion, the | | !and enterprises is the only’ hope} agains: grasping private monoply. { | The trust problem is admittedly ‘ ja perplexing one, and all efforts at | effective control of them has hith- erto failed. That is why the peo- |ple revolt as manifested by the late jelection. Let us repeat, “Cam- paigns can no longer be fought in ‘North Dakota merely on the mis-! takes of the past.” Let us face the problems ds \they are and discuss | them on their merits, instead of | condeming the proposed , remedies ‘by blindly crying socialism.

He read it aloud to Nancy Nick in’his workroom up in the treétops where the Twins were help- ing him, \ “Dear Mr. Green Wizard,’ he read., ‘Will you please help me to win a race?

This story made such a hit with the readng public that long before thd finish of its serial publication it was brought out in book form and even since has been one of the “best sellers.” Miss Miriam Cooper, the star of “The Oath”, “Serenade,” and many other successful photodramas, plays the leading part in “Kindred of the Dust,” and is supported by a cast which includes such well kngwn players as Ralph Graves, Lionel Bel- more, Eugenic Besserer, Maryland Morne, Bessie Waters; W.
