LEAGUE DID THIS Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am enclosing with this 15 subscrib- ers’ checks for the new daily, which we are all very anxious to see materialize. My place of business seems to be a sort of headquarters for many of the “stick- ers” and in sending in ‘my own check together with my employe’s suggested Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Daily Lead .. Bea ‘What Frazier Has to Say About Need of New Daily On the day the Republican United States arrived in Grand Forks he and his party, including the correspondents of the largest newspapers in the nation, were informed by the Grand Forks Herald that the Farmers’ Nonpar- tisan League was “a creature of the same spirit” as the I. W. W, This puts the forty thousand farmers who voted for the League candidates in the primaries in the same class with those whom the Grand Forks Herald called “a menace to the state.”. Mr. Hughes went on to Fargo the same day and spent the night there. The Courier-News ‘the following morning had only a short extract from Mr. Hughes’. address, but ample space on the’ front page for an article headed “Politics Sure Makes Strange Bed- fellows,” ‘which was also a sneer at the League and its leaders. . It said that President. Townley and Mr. Coates were “pulling the wires and ordering things about,” whereas the truth is that Mr. Townley was not in the state during Mr. Hughes’ visit and Mr. Coates, so far from “ordering things about,” was not ‘even present at the Hughes meeting and I am positive had no hand in the arrangements and did not seek to have, as it was a matter in which The farmers of North Dakota have had a hard season. Many of them, no doubt, are on the verge of bankruptcy as a result of the destruction of their crops by flood, hail, rust and blight. I had thought recently that in the face of all these adversities it would be asking almost too much to expect them to get behind a new daily, no matter how great the need for it might be. But when I' saw them insulted and ridiculed and the state maligned before eminent visitors by the morning papers in the two cities I changed I believe now scarcely any sacrifice is too great to make to insure the establishment of a fair newspaper, one that will not devote its time to vilifying the best class of citizens in the state. .........0.......................‘:.‘..C..........l....fi._.

' Some time ago I received from ofie of the wholesale houses in Fargo one of the notorious “Good Government” league letters, and wrote them, in effect, that I could not understand why a wholegaler in our line (harness) could afferd to go against the people that were furnishing- him with - practically - all -his business through we retailers. - : I am very anxious for a daily paper that will give the people stragiht goods and not be controlled by Big Biz com- pletely. Look out for' more checks in the near; future. J. P. ABOUCHER. JOHN BURKE. I~ Sport . (Editorial - in_ Charbonneau Herald) .The movement on foot to discredit the victory of the Nonpartisan League .in " winning the primary election by organiz- ing the so-called Good Government league looks to us like the work of some one who was either afraid of the Repub- lican nominees or who had reason to *believe that the mext legislature would not be favorable to special interests, and for a Republican to repudidte the actidn | of the Voters Jast June savors of the-act of a “piker.” 3 A There was nothing crooked about the election and if the party can't stand Jeing run by the farmers for once, why all that the farmers have to do is to discredit the party. They have demon- strated pretty ‘thoroughly that they do not need any of the dld party organiza; fions, to nominate candidaten a0 S0DR it 00 Wi o P people Republican to go back on the nominees Znow is to proclaim that party govern- ment is a failure. ; ; i Those leaders who will sulk ‘in their: tents because they did not happen to get their own way in saying who should be::’ nominated are .no sports and should remember that there have been thous- ands of people every. election who were just’ as bitterly disappointed over the ‘result of the.primaries as: they are. To repudiate the action of theprimaries and follow the Good Goyernment league band off now will be but the action of a Mexican politician who did not get to ‘be president and starts a revolution. = . Editor Nonpartisan Leader: . AN ANTIDOTE FOR BACON Editor Nonpartisan Leader: By all means let us have a daily. I know it will be clean and palatable, and will take the taste of tainted Bacon out of our mouths. As soon as-I go to town will send you a check ‘and after harvest will get you some subs. = S e 2 R. W. KENT. TO TAKE PLACE OF “TRASH” . Editor Nonpartisan_Leader: Find enclosed check for $3 and put my name on list’ for Dakota Daily Léader. Would have liked to send you a list of names, but am very busy. I stopped what I had, as'I got tired of reading their trash. 2 > ’ JOHN PRIBBINOW, A “GOOD MEETING?”—YOU BET Editor Nonpartisan Leader:, . Pléase find enclosed check: for $36 for _Subscriptions taken at the League meet- ‘ ing on Saturday at the court house at inot. We sure did have some good meeting. We indorsed Thorwald Mostad for senator -and George S. Reishus for representative. / - ANTHONY WALTON: UNCOLORED NEWS NEEDED I believe that a daily paper conducted along the same lines as the Leader would be one of the best things that ever took place in North Dakota. ~All of the people in the cities and towns would have a chance to get all of the news in a complete and uncolored form. We, who have been up against the proposition of being unable to: get publicity unless it suits the “intersts,” would surely appre- ciate the new daily. e ‘W. J. PRATER.. “JUST WHAT WE NEED” Editor Nonpartisan Leader: - Inclosed you will find check for $3 sub to the Daily Dakota Leader for six months. This is just what we need, a daily paper that will give us the facts as they are, straight from t};e shoulder. The other fellows have a bunch of daily papers working for them—why shouldn’t we have one? I believe our hardest work is to come yet, and we need a daily to help us out. Those cartoons in the N. P. Leader are eertainly humdingers. E. M. WALLRICH. HALVERSON WANTS ' IT Editor. Nonpartisan Leader: : @ ._ Enclosed find $3 for the Dakota Daily Leader. ‘Why should not the farmers have a daily newspaper, when it is abso- lutely needed? - We are upholding east- ern dailies, and a lot of.dailies in this state, and not more than one or two of them tell the truth for fear that Big * -Biz will put them out of business. I say, don't be cowards, farmers— support. your own daily. We need it through this political struggle. Farm- ers, let us.have:courage, and: stop the .circulation of .all newspapers that are against us, and support our own daily, and get the real facts. ' "H. P. HALVERSON. —— TIME IS HEBE, SAYS BLASKY . Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I note the announcement in the Leader “are about to get a daily newspaper, one that will be with us, and for the interest of all the people in the state. There certainly is room for such a daily, and the time is here now. . What the people in North Dakota want is a paper, clean ‘and honest in its purpose and to publish facts as they ‘are and be fair to'us all. We hope that this new daily will be such that it will be f ] 3 come to our homes, and not a curse like the Fargo Couriér-News and a_few other Big Biz sheets. We in.this locality are certainly more than pleased-to have you -give us a daily on the same pattern and principle as the Leader, Y . with' others here and they pleasure to have it
