I am sorry that I can not send you two of their dailies where they gave them- selves away so bad about the speeches at Hillsboro, N. D. Anybody watching the dailies and that part of it can’t help but see through it all I can not believe anything in the Herald on any subject referring to any law until I see what the Nonpartisan Leader brings. My father is a member of your or- ganization. He is a veteran of the Civil ‘War. We can well remember when the Grange was strongly organized right after that war. So now I hope that this organization of farmers will stick and’ not take anything different handed over by Big Biz. < ; ARTHUR H. JONES. Mention Leader when wrrting advertisers Hear Farmers, But That'’s All (Continued from page 6) Ladd proposed grades; others present did likewise for the farmers of their vicinities. ; . The department men used a stere- opticon to flash tables on the screen showing the data on which they had based the proposed grades. These tables with one exception had nothing to do with milling tests. They were tables showing how grain had graded in the Minneapolis terminal and at local points over a term of years—how different grades averaged for moisture, weight per bushel, foreign matter, etc., and they gave a good idea of how much wheat will get in the various grades under the new plan. They showed there will be little change from the present conditions. The new grades proposed make six classifica- tions, called Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and sam- ple. The old grades have No. 1 hard and then Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 Northern and sample, so that under the new grades the old No. 1 hard would be just No. 1 and the No. 1 Northern would be No. 2, and so on down the list. The single table of milling tests shown as the basis for the depart- ment's arrangement of the proposed grades was labeled the “Howard Lab- cratory Tests.” It was not explained what the Howard laboratory was, but the department men when questioned about it were quick to say they did not take the responsibility for it, but presented it for what it was worth. It is the same table, grain men present said, that millers have been exhibiting to offset the Ladd tests, with which it materially differs. PROLONGED SUITS INJURIOUS Sarles, N. D., Feb. 2, 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: In perusing the papers we can not help asking ourselves the que§_tion whether the law is administered in due justice to the rich and poor alike. There seems to be a wave of discon- tent spreading through this country against prolonged law suits. The ex- orbitant expense contracted means the ccllapse of the poorer petitioner, who cannot get+his honest and just de- mands. - We will take a farmer, for instance, that has a horse or cow killed by some machinery or other that belong to a big corporation. The loser sends in a claim for damages. But the company, which employs a contract lawyer, fights the case tooth and nail from one court to another. Then, from lack of funds, the plaintiff is obliged to drop out al- together. I have often wondered whether there could be a limit placed on these pro- longed law cases, which would enable the poorer classes to acquire their just rights. Our laws are O. K., we all ad- mit, but I doubt very much whether they are not too long and costly in their administration for the good of the common people of this country. No doubt some remedial legislation might be introduced, which would be the means of saving vast sums of money needlessly spent in the courts. Our laws are made for all classes of sub- jects and should not be held at bay by the strong arm of finance in meting out equity and justice to all people concerned. HAROLD DOAR. KANE IS SUSPICIOUS The Shady Lane Farm, Russel, N. D. Feb. 3, 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: After the overwhelming vote of November 7, 1916, for the League pro- gram and the hundreds of petitions brought to bear upon our hold-over senator for giving the people a chance to change the constitution, it begins to look to me as though Big Biz was pay- ing those hold-over senators for de- feating House Bill 44 a considerable sum for their loyalty. Out of a $50,- 000,000 rakeoff which Big Biz is taking from North Dakota each year they cer- tainly could afford to pay 29 men a nice neat sum. I shall be forced to be- lieve this if they don’'t reconsider and pass House Bill 44. This is not only my opinion but that of many others. I should advise the people who live in the districts of those hold-over sena- tors who are opposing House Bill 44 to watch their financial boom in the near future. J. G. KANE. GOOD FOR THE BLUES Brampton, N. Dak. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Permit me to congratulate cartoonist Baer for the splendid work he is doing. The picture he draws of Shepherd Divet guarding the sheep caps the climax. This cartoon should be cut out and hung in a conspicuous place, a$ I think it would be a splendid antidote in case one should get the blues. L. STEWART.
