D.)‘ Citizen) To possess a consciousness of duty well done and service well performed, gives to a person a comfortable feeling, which enables him to look every man in the face fearlessly and cour- ageously. 5 Such consciousness must be the posssession of Representatives Obert A. Olson, B. D. Arnold, O. C. Martin, and Senator Geo. Hunt. These men were elected by the farm- ers and business men of this district who cast a majority vote. Without the farmers’ vote these men would never have left their happy homes to sojourn in Bismarck for two months for the purpose of taking part in enacting legislation which® the majority of the people” have been demanding. They left for the capital with a clear cut mandate from the paople to champion vall measures designed to give - relief from some of the burdens which have become intolerable. That they were not fully able to carry out the wishes of their constituents is not their fault. They did their best under the circumstances, and wereé only bloeked from giving greater relief by the fact that some hold-over and traitor senators scouted the demands of the great majority of the voters. It ought not to be a hard and diffi- cult thing to carry out the wishes of the people who elect one to office, but as a matter of fact, it is not as easy as it looks, because it is humanly im- possible to please everybody. Legislation designated to benefit all the people, is sure to carry with it some measures injurious to those who are opposed to people’s rule., Special in- terests are bound to suffer, but this must be expected under a government where the greatest good to the greatest number is the dominating motive. Those special interests which find some of their easy source of revenue cur- tailed, can be counted on to use their influence to make it uncomfortable for servants faithful to the people. This is one of the things which make it hard for legislators to do right, but it is also a reason why faithful public servants are entitled to greater honor The Citizen, speaking for a majority of the people of Bowman county, ex- tends a ‘hearty welcome to our return- ing representatives, and assures them that they have no cause to be ashamed “of the use of the power with which the people’ entrusted them. We will be proud to welcome them upon their re- turn. “They have fought a good fight; they have kept the faith!” They have no cause for shame! ENTHUSIASM IN SOUTH DAKOTA ‘Wallace, S. D.,, March 6, 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: A large number of farmers attended the Nonpartisan meeting held at both Florence and Wallace. There were about 200 farmers at Florence and 250 at Wallace. ‘Mr. Evans, the speaker certainly gave a sensible and up-to-date talk which made the farmers listen yvery at- tentively. He explained how we are robbed on prices, grading of grain, sell- ing livestock and how all this money that goes to waste to commission men and middle men may be saved. The farmers at these two meetings were very much Nonpartisan already and, the few that were present who were not League members were willing to join. They were all very much in- terested in the program and sald they are going to hurrah for the N\onparti- san League. The farmers see where they have to do something to control the politics of the state. They have been dictated . by the politicians about long enough and it is high time for the farmers to be able to dictate to the politicians for the next 50 years and for ‘all time to come., HENRY PAUL. LEAGUE MEETING AT HOPE A genuine “farmers’ day” and a rattling good mass meeting drew a large audience of farmers to the opera house at Hope, on March 10, where some non-League members of the leg- islature were given a chance to explain their records, and several strong League speakers were present. Mr. Leon Durocher for the League, opened ° the meeting at 2 p. m. and answered many questions put to him by .the farmers. XL J. Trelease then spoke for an hour, keeping the audience in good humor by his continual use of farm terms and stories in discussing the legislative session that has just ended. : Representative TLathrop and Mr. Shipley, an attorney of the town were given a chance to speak, and they made a defense of the anti-League minority in the house of representa- ~tives, but were met at every turn by Mr, Trelease, who held the audience to a high pitch of enthusiasm and in- terest by his answers and arguments in favor of the Nonpartisan League. .
