Message From Hoare liams and McKenzie counties, North Dakota: You have shown by your votes that you wish the TLeague program carried out. The League legislators and some others who were not elected by the League but are truly people’s legisla- tors, are doing all in their power to do as you wish, which is impossible under the present constitution. After investigation by the best talent obtainable, and discussions that have thoroughly sifted the matter to the fullest possible points, these men have become convinced that the only correct way out is to present you with a new constitution that has been thoroughly gone over by the legislators named. This was not done hastily but with de- liberation and pronounced with unani- mous consent. ] To the people of the 41st district, Wil- The sections our opposers take ex- ception to are those that have been tried by the most progressive states in the union and found very satisfactory. Look well and find who is opposing it and in this line you will find those who tried to fight us back at the pri- maries and general election. We need the help of you people. You must talk for it, work and fight for it, if neces- sary. These men you have sent here are true to you. There is no one being led. These men know what they are doing. Our League leaders and legislators are fighting for yom and it is an honest determined fight. We have no traitors here and we do not want them out at home. Your representative, F. A. HOARE.

How much did your father get in flour and by-products when he marketed his grain, in comparison to what you get? He got twice as much, as any economist will show you and as the little grist - mills in Minnesota are proving today. X TRIEN That is what' 50 YEARS OF EFFI- CIENCY IN MARKETING HAS COST YOU—it has cost you haif what you raise. The efficiency the writer of that Big Bl_x_finess inspired editorial talks of has been the efficiency that has put more profits in the pockets of the mid- dlemen and taken more out of your pockets, GIVE LEGISLATURE CHANCE (Editorial in the Adams County {N. D.) -Record). . We are not in sympathy with any movement that has for its object the blocking of the farmers program for legislation at Bismarck this winter. We were not among those who jumped on the farmers band wagon last summer as a means of riding to popularity. A newspaper has hea: responsibilities to its readers and can not afford to take up with every new movement that comes along, lest its reliability be questioned. We did not espouse the League's cause but treated it with absolute fairness. That is our attitude now. And to be fair means to give the farmers a chance to 'put their platform into law. There is much that will prove to be good in the proposed program and- that ‘which proves to be bad can be discarded later. Other legislatures have given us some good laws—and some bad—and we venture the predic- tion that this session will close with more good laws to its credit, and pos- sibly fewer bad ones, than previous legislatures. The farmers are at the helm for the first time in the history of the state and we are for—helping them to put their program across. Our Deople oftentimes are too timid about taking up new things in the way of legislation.
