State Senator, Bismarck, N. D. Dear Sir: Your letter of recent date replying to my letter urging you to vote for House Bill 44 was duly received and I have delayed writing you again, awaiting ‘your vote on the one all-important measure, the constitutional revision. If you care to know the truth, T will say that in the campaign I said that Wind Harnessed This is George Manikowske, of ‘Wyndmere, who hit upon the happy thought of utilizing the winds that sweep across the North Dakota prairies for power, in place of the waterfalls, which are lacking in this level land, and his invention is now in practical operation. The windmill instead of the turbine is the instrument by which electricity is conserved in storage bat- teries for use on farms, in homes, and for city lighting by his invention. Manikowske is a North Dakota boy and from his childhood he had been me- chanically inclined and was always working with electricity. While on a trip to Bismarck a short time ago he was the guest of honor at a banquet by a group of men of the capital city, among them Governor Frazier and At- torney General Langer. you voted against the terminal elevator bill in 1915 and did not vote on the hail insurance measure, and the records bear me out. I did not say you served Big Business all the time. I am now in position, however, to state my position in terms that you can not misunder- stand. Taking into consideration our con- versation where I approached you to join the Nonpartisan League you ex- pressed yourself as favoring the pro- gram of the Nonpartisan League; your reason for not “coming across” was that you were afraid, owing to late season and bad roads, that we could not successfully organize the district. In other words you may as well have said: “If it will help me win, I'll join; if not, I don’t want to offend any FRIENDS.” It wasn’t a matter of principle or the best interests of the farmers of North Dakota. When election returns show- ed you elected I told the League of- ficials that while you had not joined the League I felt sure you would sup- port the most important measures at least. I am truly disappointed to see your vote registered against the re- vision. Upon receipt of your letter, however,” I 'was certain you were against it when you expressed these sentiments: “I am going to hew to the line and go along on normal conditions.” Excuse me if I guess that you are using the Big Biz axe. “Normal con- ditions” is just what the milling inter- ests want—about $1 a bushel margin is “normal” enough for them. Of course, “your judgment” will determine your action; 88,000 votes of male citizens and the Republican platform upon which you were elected count for naught. Sure, Mr. Carey, “Hew to the line.” That is what Benedict Arnold did. He got his reward for his service and has his place in American history, and likewise history in the making now will place you and your colleagues op- posed to popular legislation on a niche along side of Judas Iscariot and Bene- dict Arnold. The old order has passed. Today you and fellow colleagues of the senate of North Dakota stand in an enviable position of winning the grati-’ tude and-love of not only the people of North Dakota but of the entire na- tion! : Remember, Mr. Carey, the “normal condi!" 's” along which you are hew- ing wii: only stave off the matter two years and in the meantime several hundred million dollars produced by sweat and blood of farmers will be taken from the state in that time, and 42,000 farmers of North Dakota know it. ERNEST A. MEYER. ~Here’s a Man Wants a Job Eastern Factory Worker is Looking for a Place in North Dakota McKeesport, Pa., Jan. 21, 1917. Sec’y, Farmers’ Nonpartisan League, Bismarck, N. D. Dear Sirs I take great pleasure in writing you a few lines. My object in writing you this-letter is to get a little information from you. I would:.like to ask you if you would please tell me what chances there are in North Dakota for a good, sober industrious man in getting a steady job on a farm the whole year around at good wages. I am a married man and have a wife and three children and I am working now in a pipe mill, but I am getting tired of city life because of the high cost of living. A man can‘t save any money for a rainy day. It talkes all the money & man makes to pay the ex- penses. That’s why I made up my mind to write you a few lines about work—and another thing, a man don't know when the mill is going to shut down and when a man is not working then he has no income, but he has to live anyhow. That is another reason why I would rather work on & farm where I could work steady the whole year around. You will wonder why I am writing this letter from such far distance. The reason is because your farmers have an organization and they , come to- gether more than here and I think that they tell one another who needs a good sober working man the whole year" around. Dear sir, that is why I like to ask you for general information regarding . work, pay and opportunity to work steady, because I need steady work, as I am a married man. It would not pay for a man to take a ggmbler’s chance of going to a strange state without knowing anything about it first. My intention would be to go out and start work by myself before taking my fam- ily with me. Please tell me the dis- tance to North Dakota from here so I know the train fare. I will close my letter hoping to hear from you soon, I will renfain your true friend, GUSTAYV PRINCIPAL, - 2911-Linden Ave., McKeesport, Pa.
