Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am enclosing answers to the-* questions in the contest, so thought I'd tell you I take a great interest in the news the Leader puts out and also in the meeting I attended. I have great faith in good results from the work you are doing. I will be glad to do anything I can to help, whenever any meetings are held near here and the more meetings the better. There are lots of the neigh- bors who would like to attend some of the meetings that did not get to go when the one was held at Rock Lake. Wish the League success— G. H. BROTHERTON. DELIVERS POWERFUL ADDRESS In regard to the League meeting held at the McKinley Farmers club hall, N. S. Randall delivered a powerful address to a crowd of 230 farmers on the issues as set forth by the Nonpartisan League. It was evi- dent from the outset that the farmers were in sympathy with the speaker which made it necessary for Mr. Ran- dall to pull his coat hefore he spoke three minutes, and the way he pointed out the weakness of the present sys- tem and showed by facts and figures whereby the farmers of this state had everything their own way if they only would go after it, left an impression thzll.lt will manifest itself later at the polls. This community is strongly organ- ized for the League but when Mr. Randall got through with his talk those that were missed by the organ- izer or did not understand the issues last summer came forward and signed up for~ the League.—JOHN S.
