Guaranteed Weekly Circulation in excess of 60,000 Copies Jolting a Gang Senator J. F. Beltz, Farmer, Expresses a Few Sentiments to Mr. Englund, Senator of North Dakota Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Here is a copy of a letter I sent our _senator. If you wish you may publish it, some senator may take a tumble to himself and fall in line. s J. . BELTZ. : Kenmare, N. D., Feb. 5, 1917. Hon. J. A. Englund: Dear Senator: I received your letter and pamphlet of January 30 and read contents. I see by the daily that House Bill 44 was de- feated in the senate and was sorry to note that you were among the 29 who were afraid that the common people of North Dakota did not have enough intelligence to know what is best for the majority of the people of the state. You admit in your letter that the old constitution needs amendments. If a new constitution can be drawn up to meet the present day requirements, re- gardless of whether it is Socialistic, Democratic or Republican, or any other name you may give it,-the proposed constitution as drafted will do away with constantly amending the old one. The debt limit is not required under the new constitution as the people have a privilege of voting as to whether they want to shoulder a debt or not, and the chance to steal or defraud the state would not be any greater than under the present constitution. If you have your ear to the ground vou would hear the sentiment of the people and what they want and your vote should be cast accordingly. Hoping that these few words will make my views clear to you, I remain, - Yours truly, J. ¥.' BELTZ. Farmers Entitled to Profit Following the Same Principles as Business Men in Buying and Selling in Best Markets Lisbon, N. D., Feb. 20, 1916. Iditor Nonpartisan Leader: Dear Sir: I am very much pleased with what the farmers of North Dakota have done. We will soon own and run our own packing plants, elevators and everything the farmers ought to run. . We farmers could do better and do more if we were better-organized. Big Business is-doing all it can to hold us down. They pay us as little as they can for what we have to sell—and what we have to buy is very high. The 1916 wheat crop was not of the best grade, but it must make good flour as flour is higher than ever, and it can not all be made from 1915 wheat. What we farmers produce doesn’t seem to go up much on account of the war— not like what we have to buy. The farmers and merchants ought to get together and boost for each other. It will improve both the towns and farms. When the farmers raise a good crop, we have more money to spend, will pay cash, and if the merchant would sell a little cheaper for cash, there would not be so much sent to the mail order house. I don’'t see how anybody can blame people for trading where they get the most for their money. I knowa farm- er that took a load of watermelons to a town in Towa. The merchants would not pay him more than five or 10 cents apiece for his melons. They were selling melons they had shipped in the same size as the farmers offered, for 35 cents apiece and we all know they had to pay more than 10 cents apiece for them. If not, they had a nice profit, and we don’t blame them for buying and selling at a’'profit. But we farm- ers have right to a little profit too. Farmers and merchants can not get along without each other but if they had to, the farmers could better get along without the merchant. Some people think that the farmers should sell all their grain to the old line elevators and their stock to the local buyer and that is all right, but if we can get more money out of what we raise by shipping it ourselves, it is no more than our duty to get all we can for our work, just as the imple- ment dealers and store keepers get all they can for what they sell. The farm- ers should run their own creameries, have the cream churned at home, and get the buttermill for the hogs. Those “fellows who buy cream and send it away will pay well for awhile. But I have seen where they gave a good test and paid a great price for cream until they had most of the farmers’ creameriés out of business, and then they had everything their own way. The farmers in ‘that locality are not keeping as many cows as they used to. Let us stick together and patronize home industry. : JOHN ROSEDAL. —_— SAYS PAULSON’S CAREER ENDS. Charlson, N. D., Feb. 19, 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I have been reading the Leader for almost a year now and it is the first paper I take to read on receiving the mail. It makes a- person’s blood boil to see how those hold-over senators are ‘“‘serving” the farmers. They have always been doing it, but of course, the Old Gang papers would not expose them and they were voted in from year to vear, but thanks to the Leader and President Townley they will be voted in no more. In regard to Senator Paulson from Hillsboro, it is nothing new for him. I knew this gentleman many years ago, and he was the same Big Biz'politi- cian then that he is now. I am certain it will be the last trip he will make to the capitol as senator; and the other fellows that have done likewise will meet the same fate. We will show those big guns that we farmers are the people and must be respected and get our share of this world's goods: There is not a farmer in Traill coun- ty that should patronize .the Grand Forks Herald, nor should they take it from the post office. If all of the farmers in North Dakota shut the Herald out of- their homes we -would see how long it would last. I was a reader and subscriber of the Grand Forks Herald for 15 years, but I got so sick of its lies and I told them I did not want it. I would not. allow it in my house. We will show them in two years more where they get off at. I re- ceived one of those pamphlets from the Herald about the “Crisis” but I never read it—just put it in the stove and that is what they should: all do, and they would quit sending ' the" dirty trash. - I am proud that I am one of the so- called suckers and intend to remain one. We have stuck and we will stick and we will win in the end. ~ - P. F. DOYLE, A former resident of Traill County. SIXTEEN » ADVERTISEMENTS : LUMBER DIRECT TO THE CONSUMER Builders Lumber Co.
