If YQU agree with these live wires fill out t \ THERE’S “AMPLE ROOM” FOR IT \ Bismarck, August 3, 1916. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: ; In reply to your inquiry as to whether or not there is room in North Dakota for “a new daily newspaper with a different viewpoint, a news- paper which does not exist to serve any party or clique, but to serve all the people of the state, a newspaper that will place people above dollars,” I answer “most emphatically, YES.” i _ : Not only is there ample room in North Dakota for a daily newspaper such as you describe, but there is urgent need and almost unlimited demand for such a publication.

Will you have stock market reports? I am a sucker and proud of it. Crops are very poor here but we must keep up the League if it takes the last dollar. You sure have done a great work, but there is more—much more—to do. We want every state in the union. Is there anybody big enough to do it?
