GREER, Manager ek EPTe ooy 7] 0 L LTHOUGH a campaign conceded to be the most important- to the people of North Dakot# that had ever taken place was at its height, the - Fargo Scurrilous-Views, prominent only because it was the only morning paper in that city, was strangely silent on the issues at stake. The farmers of the state had indorsed a genuine farmer for governor, had put up' a whole farmers’ state ticket and had adopted a political program of utmost importance. Despite this the Scurrilous-Views had taken no stand, one way or the other, on the desir- ability of the farmers’ candidates to hold office or on the merits of the farmers’ program. The editor of the Leader therefore sent a reporter to see Dr. I. M. Guilty, editor of the Scurrilous- Views, to ascertain what his real views were. The reporter found the noted editor busy copying an article from the Bis- marck Tribune, owned by -Alex Mec- Kenzie. He consented to the interview. THE DOCTOR ANSWERS “Doctor,” said the interviewer, “one hundred and fifty thousand readers of the Leader would like to know your opinion of the farmers’ legislative pro- gram. What do you think of the pro- posed state terminal elevator the people of North Dakota, nearly all farmers, have twice voted to establish by overwhelm- ing majority ?” Dr. Guilty seemed stricken with vertigo.. With flashing eyes he leaned forward and brought his fist down on the desk in front of him with a resounding whack. " “Karlmarxjohnspargo-debs-}$$***) ($$ 11,” he yelled. “Do you not believe, doctor,” said the reporter, after recovering from this out- break, “that an agricultural state like North Dakota .ought to own. sufficient flour mills and packing plants, or give state encouragement and aid to such plants and mills, to protect the producers and consumers against the losses of the present system, whereby the wheat is milled ‘and the live stock slaughtered outside the state, with all its waste, inefficiency, low returns to the farmer producer and high prices to the con- sumers? Would not such a system give the farmer a fair market, which he does not now have ?” Dr. Guilty for a moment seemed frozen in' his chair. He fixed the interviewer with an insane gaze and his face turned purple. He struggled to find words and at last burst forth in a great roar. “TownleycoatesmartinIWW!” . he shouted. Frankly the interviewer was fright- ened. He looked uneasily at the door, but the noted editor having subsided he ooooooooeoooooooooooeoeoooooooooooooooooooooooeoooeooooooo_ STROM TELLS THE FACT. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: 1916. Next a Secretary was elected. Governor. nominations for Governor. An Exclusive In.terview' With Doctor I. M. Guilty . I see the kept press claims frame up convention in Fargo:March 28th I was there as a delegate from Truill Co. in the place of Mr. Eenger. The convention was called to order by Mr. Tounley, who was after some lengthy discussions elected as permanent chairman, ; The convention then proceeded to nominate and:indorse: candxdates for" Each delegate that had a man in mind he thaught would make a good Governor made the nomination for that man-also stating his-reasons for thinking .such man was the right one. There were, 1 think, -eight Worst, Burnétt, Geo. Smith, Frazier and four othets were considered. After about one hour’s. discussion of the different candidates a vote was taken and Mr, Frazier got the mdorsement, and so the proceedings went along till all the indorsements were made. If the old gang that has been selecting our candldateq for us to vote on can call this a frameup, what.do they call their proceedings? -'When three or four of the old gang leaders get together and select a ticket then everything i is lovely all we have to do is to.vote for the selectxon.» ..............................O..O..QO......

A LOGICAL REPLY “Doctor,” said the reporter soothingly,’ “Do you not think the farmers of Can- ada were wise when they adopted state hail insurance on a comprehensive plan, doing away with the pnvate hail com-: pany graft and assuring protection of crops at a mere fraction of former rates?” This seems to be too much for Dr. Guilty. He Jumped from his chair, waved his arms in the air, rolled his eyes and uttered strange sounds. Seeming at last to get partial control of himself he paced back and forth across his office. “Carpetbaggers steamrollers - carpet- baggers steamrollers carpetbaggerssteam rollers,” ‘he repeated over and over again in measured tones as one bereft. Then, turning suddenly ‘and looking at the interviewer he said: "Emmagoldmancharlesedwardmssell—-- classlegislation***$$$§§§.” He tried to say more but choked up.’ The interviewer, now somewhat used to this unusual man, proceeded with more confidence. “Doctor Guilty,” said the reporter, “I am impressed with your views and .am sure the 150,000 of the readers of the - Leader 'will be much impressed and grateful for the time you have so kmdly granted out of your busy life to give them your opmxons so fully and freely. AH! HERE WE HAVE IT “I have one more" question. Doctor, as you know the farmers have nomin- ated for governor one of the most sub- stantial farmers in the state. Mr. Fra- zier was sought out by: the farmers for this honor. He was never in politics, has. been a hfe-long resident and farmer of - the state, is a graduate of the umversxty, a progressxve, a man of broad views, thoroughly in sympathy with the pre- dominating industry in this state, of un- blemished character and a candldate who promises to cleanse politics, drive out the corrupt politicians and put a stop to inefficiency and graft at Bismarck. What do you think of this man’s qualifica- tions?” - Dr. Guilty squirmed in his- chair, in which he had again seated himself while the interviewer was speaking. The . noted editor seemed at last to get better control of himself. He spoke more calmly than heretofore. He rolled his eyes upward and rubbed his hands’ together and replied slowly.— ‘“Paramountissue-prohibition-resubmis- sion-personallibertyleague. ~ Boozeliquor attack on constitution,” he muttered. “Bootleggerparamountissueresubmission resubmission.” Suddenly he was seized with a parox- ysm of, anger. He stuttered, sputtered and shoked. “Atheismanarchismfreelove!! !1,” he bellowed. He seemed to be getting worse again. The interviewer quietly slipped out the door. As he hastened away he heard the doctor talking to himself, “Carpetbaggers——steamrollers—carpet ; baggers—steamrollers,” the noted jour- nalist was muttering. “Carpetbaggers — steamrollers— carpetbaggers — steam® rollers—" HENRY STROM Hillsboro, N.
