=) o THE NONPARTISAN LEADER . 777 ° Candidates On Tour Frazier and Langer With League Speakers Visit Principal Cities of North Dakota Following the Nonpartisan League state convention and historic mass ~ meetings of the membership at Fargo last week, a series of district mass meetings which will be held at six strategic points in the state, has begun. : Second in importance only to the great meetings at Fargo, these dis- trict gatherings serve to introduce in person to the members of the League and the 'people of the state the League’s candidate for governor, Lynn J. Frazier. Mr. Frazier will address each of the district massmeetings. - The dates and places of these big, important gatherings, to which every member of the League and the gen- eral public is invited, are as follows, two meetings to be held at each place named, one at 2 o’clock in the after- noon and one at 8 o’clock in the evening: Grand Forks, April 4. Devils .Lake, April 5. Williston, April 6. Minot, A'pril\7. Valley City, April 8. Beach, April 10. Bismarek, April 11, LANGER AND FRAZIER SPEAK Thousands of League members and many outsiders are expected to seize CHARLES W. BLEICK Railroad Commission Candidate Once Was Football Player Charles W, Bleick, choice of the Nonpartisan League for one of the three places ont the state railroad commission, is a candidate of whom the League may well be proud. He is a dyed in the wool farmer, is of German parentage and pronounces his name as though it were spelled “Black”—he doesn’t want that for- gotten. ; . Mr. Bleick is 85 years old and with his brother fayms 1200 acres near Elgin, Morton county. He home- steaded in the county 11 years ago. ‘What his neighbors think of him is easily estimated. He is president of the Farmers’ union local, belongs to the Drayton Equity and gained much esteem through his successful promo- tion and organization of the Equity elevator at Heil on the Mott Northern Pacific Branch. Mr. Bleick is a graduate of the Nebraska Agricultural college and is ‘not a little proud of the fact that he was a star on the football team of that institution the only year it ever beat Minnesota. The team of the Nebraska school was not scored against that year. This future railroad commissioner married Mary Zeller, a Morton county girl, in 1912 and they have one child, a girl. Mr, ‘Bleick is a member of the German Lutheran church. “Among other things I expect to work for when I am elected is better protection for farmers who store “grain in elevators,” said Mr. Bleick. “We need laws enlarging the author- ity of the railroad commission in re- .gard to elevator regulation, to guard against loss to farmers through fail- ure of elevator companies, such as - recently took place at Dazey and * Walum in this state.” " CHARLES H. ANDERSON. Charles H. Anderscn of Portal, N, D., candidate for representative from the Fortieth district, Burke and Divide counties, was born in Sweden in 1878 and came to the United States in 1895 and lived in New. York state " till 1888 when he came to North Dak- this opportunity to see and hear the man of the hour in North Dakota— the man called from the plow to be governor of a great state. Lynn J. Frazier will be the best-known and most talked of man in North Dakota after this set of meetings. People who miss meeting him will regret it. The district massmeetings will be the second broadside fired in the greatest campaign North Dakota has ever seen. The first guns were fired at the record-breaking Fargo meetings. With Mr. Frazier on this trip, to appear also on the platform with him at the 12 massmeetings, is William Langer of Mandan, the League’s can- didate for attorney general, who has more than assured himself of election by his record as state’s attorney of Moiton county, where his fearless en- forcement of the law has won him state-wide recognition. A. C. Townley, president of the League, the “most maligned man in North Dakota,” also will appear at each of the gatherings. Other speak- ers will include five of the League’s - best lecturers, men who have instruct- ed and entertained the thousands of members of the League at the hun- dreds of meetings held throughout the winter. ota and homesteaded in Burke county in 1899. = Mr. Anderson served in the Span- ish-American war, operating in the Philippine Islands. He was attached to Company I, First North Dakota volunteers, -second battallion, in com- mand of Major Fraine. He married Miss Elsie Siltman in 1903 and has three children, two boys and one girl. : e Mr. Anderson has a common school education and also took a course in the Y. M. C. A. night school! at Min- neapolis. He has setrved on his town- ship board for ten years and has con- stantly stood for the farmers’ in- terests. Markets WHEAT QUOTATIONS.

(Editorial from the Non- partisan Leader, Dec. 30.) “Signing of petitions to submit this question is not declaring how one stands on the question, but is merely saying the signers favor the opportunity of the people to vote on it.
