If Minnesota can have the finest and best and most-up-to-date prison in the U. 8., self-supporting and making money besides, why cannot poor old North Dakota have at least a few industries? For instance during the year of 1916 Minnesota shipped out 3812 grain . binders, 4799 mowers, 3021 rakes. In nine years they have made a total of 55,256 machines at a mnet profit of $1,381,400—not so bad in nine years, and 80 per cent of the labor is-men outside the prison (that is, not prisoners). Then take into consideration the saving to the farmer on these, ma- chines over the trust machines, which amount to about $25 on binders (I sold them here for $40 less), $10 on mowers and rakes, or say an average of $20, or’ another $1,105,120. Then look and see what the senate of North Dakota has done. They have even hampered the poor little twine plant. Why call . the organizers of the League carpetbaggers? You did not call John D. Rockefeller that when he or- ganized the oil trust, nor was the man that organized the harvester trust Voted Against It This is Senator Henry McLean, who voted against House Bill 44 in the N. D. senate last week. He is a hold-over and voted to repeal the tax for termin- al elevators in the 1915 legislature. Mr. A. C. Townley: From what information I have at hand, your organization has established " the fact before the world that the rights and liberties of the producing and laboring classes must be observed and protected. In order to obtain the needed and desired legislation it will be necessary for the masses of pro- ducers of different classes to labor in harmony and co-operate with each other, that they may be able to enjoy _ the fruits of their great struggle for their existence. The battle must be won at any cost. ‘We must endeavor to regain and re- store the rights and privileges that the many have been ®robbed of. Your brothers of Nebraska are making prep- aration to unite with you in this great struggle and we hope to see the day when our laborer’'s task will be crown- ed with success and the great lines of transportation—telegraph, telephone— will revert back to their original owners, the government of the U. S, and curbing by law the amount of - dividends due the other organized in- stitutions of our land.- J. T. GREEN. TO SENATOR HYLAND Lawton, N. D., Jan. 26, 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: . ‘At a meeting of farmers held at Lawton this day, the following resolu- tion was adopted by a unanimous vote: Resolved, That we are heartily in fayor of House Bill No. 44, which pro- vides for the immediate submission to the voters for their approval or rejec- tion amendments teo the constitution which will enable the legislature to pass legislation providing for state- owned flour mills and such other enter- prises for public purposes as the people may from time to time deem necessary for the development of the natural-re- sources of the state and the welfare of its people. . Resolved, Tha.t we earnestly appeaJ to our state senator, Hon. Frank H, Hyland, to use his’ influence and vote to aid in the speedy passage of this blll through the state senate.

BAKER MATT VIGER GEO. F. NASH OTTO WISS ‘SAM BOLSTAD FIFTEEN DEAR SUBSCRIBER: Did you know there was a new market place in the state for the farmers? Did you know the farmers are be- ginning to depend upon the little Classified Ads in the Leader to sell their wares? If not you have been missing out on a wonderful opportunity. There are a number of things your brother farmer wants to buy. The reason he has not bought before is because you have not told what you have to offer. It may be cattle, hogs, poultry, seeds, grain, farm machinery, or a hundred and one other items. We know he WILL buy be- cause PRACTICALLY EVERY USER of Leader Classified ads, when asked about their results reported them satisfactory, and in many, many cases far beyond expectations. There are two reasons for such wonderful results. First: Because you can buy right here in your own state, from your own neighbor, as high quality as any state in the Union. Second: Because the farmers of the Northwest are working for a common cause, and are all helping and patronizing each other to the greatest possible extent. You want to sell—some one else wants to buy—just send us YOUR proposition. Yours for additional profits. ~ Nonpartisan Leader (D!;':iii‘;it) Use This Blank — Write An Ad Now NONPARTISAN LEADER, You are requested to insert for me, the following ad.....c.. _times, in t.he @i s ojblola e siea s e 0 010 6 0je /0 0ls /s 'h b 6 000 o 018 o 0rs s COLUINS 99600500000 008000000008000esssssrtseserrcssscstcsnsascssncescssrsnss > i B R R S R O T N I R R R R R R R R I R R R R R T S T L R I R I N P PR R R I I T T I AP I I I R I R R T R I S S R S I R P TR T R SRR I R T SR R oY 5y s i 5 O R R SO O R R R X R O R TR R TR R Y CLASSIFIED RATES: 25 cents per line first insertion; 20 cents per line for succeeding insertions.
