My subscription expires soon and I won't renew it on -a bet, and I hope every other League member will do the same,” writes H. A. Stover of Sebeka, an The clipping Mr. Stover sent is an attack upon some North Dakota farm- ers (members of the Nonpartisan league) for establishing several co- operative stores in which they have been saving themselves in the aggre- gate thousands of dollars on groceries and general supplies. And here’s another. Seems as .though the Farmers’ Dispatch doesn’t make any headway at all: “The farmers in this neighborhood have been sent sample copies of the Farmers’ Dispatch in which was an article by Governor Burnquist of Min- nesota and many news items against the leaders and workers of the Non- ‘partisan league. I asked the editor | of the Farmers’ Dispatch to’ remove my name from his sample copy list. I told him that I believed big business had contributed to his paper so that they could give away their copies and even offer premiums nearly equal to the subscription price. “I told him that I joined the Amer- '|:ica First association believing it to be a patriotic organization formed for the good and welfare .of our country, and that we farmers joined the Non- partisan league so that when we elect .2 man to office we can know who will be at his elbow.
