Editor Nonpartisan Leader: The-Leader certainly will run up against some awful big obstacles here in our state, as well as else- where, and many papers are knock- ing' the movement, as they begin to realize that the farmers seem to have a good thing this time. And it ap- pears like a great calamity to them if the farmers should stay united for once, Here are many farmers that are waiting to see if this will amount to anything. A few are afraid to join by reason of the fact that their credit may possibly be im- paired to some extent with the local merchants, etc. ; The ‘We-will-stick” slogan is a good one. I hope every member will stick and boost the thing along. Yours for success, 7 T. ANDERSON. LEAGUE BEST OF ALL Kenmare, N. D.

Have had the usual hard work and the same experience as the rest of the N. D. farmers. ' Have struggled along in debt—been forced to sell my wheat at whatever they offered me, been docked, underweighed, robbed coming and going, just like the rest of you. I voted for the terminal elevator bill whenever I got a chance, feeling sure it would give us a new deal. Then 1 went with the bunch down to Bismarck to see why the men we had elected didn’t do what we had elected them to do. Believe me I was sore when they told us to “go home and slop the hogs” Townley didn’t have to argue with me much when he sprung the League proposition on me. I joined right then and was proud to be one of the original $6 suckers. I boosted all 1 could-—helped the organizer in our township—advertised the meetings. And I tell you I am proud of the record of the League in North Dakota. But, as I read the Leader every week I saw what a fight we were up against—not only in North Dakota but in all the other states. I saw too, that if we North Dakota farmers were to get any real relief we would have to work together with the farmers of the other states. There’s a lot to these problems and we’ll all have to stand together to get rid of the big robbers. “ . Then I began to feel that I ought to do more to help. Here are my boys growing up—they have no place to go to pioneer like I did. If they are to have a chance I saw that it was up to me to get into this fight and help win it now. Here was Townley—he was a plain farmer just like me, and he had worked out this League plan and showed us that it would work. It looked to me like it-was up to the rest of us to pitch in and help him. Then I wondered what I could do. I thought it over and came to the conclusion that organization was the thing we needed. If we could have every farmer in the League with us, the rest would be easy. Then I won- dered if I could help with the organizing. I knew what we wanted, and if I just had a little help getting it all together and had a little boost in how to go about it, I felt that I could go to farmers like myself and get them into the League. But I didn’t know whether they would really want an old hayseed like myself, so I held back. Then one day I saw in the Leader that organizers were wanted and that the League had a plan to give men like me just the information they needed. I wrote in to Headquarters, and to makeé a long story short, I took the training course and started to work. I've been working down in Nebraska for about six weeks now and T want to tell you I'm doing fine and sure enjoy it. The farmers down here are just the same sort of Hiram Rubes as us North Dakota farmers. They are up against the same sort of a game and they are ready for the League. Thanks to the training course, I am ready for all their questions and ob- jections and I know how to tell, them what the League means. I am en- rolling members right along and it sure makes me feel good. I know I am right on the firing line in the biggest fight for the farmers of the U. S. that was ever put up. ¢ I didn’t expect to make any money out of the work and wouldn’t have felt bad if it had cost me some money tlis winter, for I figured I’d put in the winter at it and then go home for the spring work. But I’'m making a good living out of it and I like the work so well that I figure on going home for a couple of weeks and getting the boys started on the seeding and then let them handle. the farm while I go on organizing. We are going to have a hot campaign next year, and I am going to do all in my power to help put it over. 5 Now this is why I have written all this for the Leader. I know you don’t care about what I am doing particularly.” But I’ve seen enough of this proposition to care a lot about what you are doing. I know that you ought to be doing just what I am doing. I know that you can do it just as well as I can, and I want you to see that this is your fight and mine. It’s up to us to win it. We can if we can get enough farmers into the League to carry the elections. We can do that, you and me and all the rest of us if we will get into the game and fight. Townley and the rest at the National office have done their part, and will keep on. But they can’t win without us. They need us. I'm going to stay with them until the game is won. The boys can hold the farm down_for a year. They may make mistakes and may not do things just as I would or maybe make as much of a crop. But my fight will help get more for what they do raise. And besides I can make enough out of my work for the League to help out. Anyway I am convinced from my ex- perience that it is the only way—and I want you to get into the fight too. Arrange your affairs so that you can help put this organizing job across. I"know. that it will be the best work you ever did for yourself and the family. Write to the National Headquarters about doing this organization work. We can use more men here in Nebraska, and they tell me they need men in the other states, Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota, Colorado, Montana, and all the rest of them. Come on! What an old Hiram Rube like me can do, the rest of you can do. i Yours for the hide of Big Business, . JOHN HANSON. Read Mr. Hanson’s letter. Tt hits the nail on the head better than anything we could say. Then send us the enclosed coupon and we will tell you what to do fo get into the game like he did. ° NATIONAL NONPARTISAN LEAGUE GILFILLAN BLOCK, ST. PAUL, MINN.
