PAUL, MINN. - victory. e to their hands and sprang to repel the invaders. Once more they raised the cry of “disloyalty,” adding to it the cry that Nebraska farmers could look after their own affairs (they had never been given the opportunity to do so, | however, while the political bosses and gorrupt big business held sway) and that outgide leadership was not needed or wanted. Two or three men shape the policies of the state council of defense there—as they do, unfor- tunately, in certain other grain-belt states—and orders were issued deny- ing the League the right to organize farmers or to do anything to keep democracy safe for the world, while Nebraska farm boys are fighting over in France to keep the world safe for democracy. Had the tyrannical will of these two or three dominating figures in the state council of defense prevailed the farmers of Nebraska could have done nothing. But the League applied to the courts for relief AND RELIEF HAS JUST BEEN GRANTED, be- cause the opponents of the organized farmers of Nebraska have seen the handwriting on the wall. The unwar- ranted mandates of the council of de- fense are discarded; the Nonpartisan league ¢an go about organizing the farmers and getting for them the re- lief of which they stand sorely in AN INTERPRETER OF WILSON Russell, N. D. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: President Wilson, a great prophet! I have just finished reading “The New Freedom,” a book written about six years ago by President Wilson to stimulate the spirit of public service; and in writing he has made a prophecy which has come true and yet so many of our educated political leaders have failed to discover the man he has pointed out to me as our leader. The ‘following is the president’s prophecy: “I remember speaking at a school where I understood that almost all of the younger men were the sons of very rich menand I told them I looked upon them with a great deal of pity, because, I said, ‘Most of you fellows are doomed ‘to obscurity. You will not do' anything, and with all the - great tasks of this country waiting to be done, probably you are the very men who will decline to do them. Some man who has been up against it, some man who has come out of the crowd, somebody who has had the whip of necessity laid on his back, will emerge out of the crowd, will show he understands the interests of the nation, united and not separated, and will stand up and lead us.’” This man has stood up and led us, the progressives, for the last three years and yet a great many have fail- ed to recognize the new' reformer. Yes, he has stood up under the great- est load of political camouflage that was ever, heaped upon any man of modern times and is going to be able to carry it until the people have “their_cobwebs torn from their polit- . Jcal vision.” This mgn has had no flowery bed of ease to rest upon for the last five years, but instedd has had his way strewn with thorns, but is still traveling on to a most glorious This leader has passed through “the fiery furnace,” he has been weighed in the balance and found not wanting; he has stood the acid test, and has beén exonerated and handed a clean bill of health by the highest tribunal of the state of Min- nesota. I am going to name this man, because there yet are a great many people that could not pick ‘out this ' greatest reformer -and leader since Lincoln’s time, A. C. Townley. ~ Letters From OQur Readers need. Nebraska still stands for free speech, for the right of free assem- blage, for free men THOUGH THEY BE FARMERS. I have two thoughts in mind as I close this article. The first is grati- tude that it has been given to me to live to see this day, when the right of farmers to organize has been vindi- cated in some great grain-belt states, when victory is already to be seen approaching, over the corn-crowned hilltops, in other states. The second is that the day will soon come to pass when other states—I have Iowa most in mind, as I write—will learn the Nebraska lesson, will come to decide that the farmers have the same right to organize as other classes of citizens enjoy. Iowa has this lesson yet to learn. Minnesota learned its lesson last week. Nebraska learned its les- son, too, last week. How long—oh, how long—before the farmers of Iowa will be equally free and untram- meled, before the “powers that be” here in the fair Hawkeye state will learn that this is a government of the people, by the people and for the peo- ple, and not a government of the few, by the politicians and for the sole benefit of selfish interests? The scales of justice are trembling in Iowa these days. And justice is blind, until *the bandages are taken from her eyes. CONVERTING IOWA Tilden, Neb. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I saw in our home paper from Wheatland, Iowa, that they have 100 members. I sent some copies of the Nonpartisan Leader down there and am proud they have that many mem- bers. I want you to give Frank Bux, editor, a good roasting. He needs it. The League is sure growing in Ne- braska. We sure will vote as a unit this fall. Watch Nebraska grow stronger. HENRY PUETSCH. WASHINGTON JOINS IN Oak Harbor, Whidby Island, Wash. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: How can we farmers and laborers ever thank the Nonpartisan league and’ Leader for the great accomplish- ment they have done and are doing. I really think the hired thugs are dig- ging their own graves. I keep my Nonpartisan Leader in circulation. It has done some good already. If the organizer would make the rounds again in this vicinity he surely would get some more new members. " STEPHEN FEENSTRA. THE NEBRASKA BUNCH ; Florenc¢e, Neb. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: The inclosed clippings will tell you the rest. The old bunch is against us here as you will see, and I sup- {)ose you already know. I am a mem- er and a booster of our League. We all hope that North Dakota and Min- nesota -Leaguers will win. J. F. DRABEK. INTOLERANCE IN KANSAS Effingham, Kan. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I have noticed some of the papers here represent such interests as are represented by chambers of commerce in our northern states. The opposition is at work in Kansas, right in the city of our state capital.” These papers’ work is bearing fruit, for a movement has been started in Topeka to force: i the League. representative in Kansas to get out of the capital city by not permitting him an office room in that town. .

It is conservatively estimated that over three million people annually are taking it in this country alone. It has been highly endorsed and used by such men as Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, former Presidential Cabinet Official (Sec- retary of the Treasury), United States Judge ' Atkinson of the Court of Claims of Wash- ! ington; Judge Wm. L. sioner of the United States Board of Me- diation and Conciliation, formerly Chief Jus- tice of the International Court, mer United States Senator and Vice Presi- Chambers, Commis- * ' ; for- dential Nominee Charles A. Towne of Min- | nesota; former U. S. Senator Richard Rol- land Kenney of Delaware, at present Assist- ant Judge Advocate General U. 8. Army; General John L. Clem (Retired), the drum- ltl}er boy of Shiloh, who was S General David Stuart (Retired), hero of the battle of Gettysburg; physicians who have been connected with well-known hospitals have prescribed and recommended it. Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr, of Chicago, says it ought to be in every hospitai and prescribed by every physician. Dr. A. J. Newman, late Police Surgeon of Gordon ergeant in the ' Army when only twelve years of age; ' the City of Chicago, and former House Sur- | geon Jefferson Park Hospital, Chicago, says | Nuxated Iron has proven through his own tests of it to excel any preparation he has | ever used for creating red blood, building up the nerves, strengthening the muscles and correcting digestive disorders. Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly phy- sician_of Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New York, and the Westchester County Hos~ pital, says there are thousands of men and women who need a strength and blood builder but do not know what to take. In his opinion there is nothing better than or- ganic iron—Nuxated Iron—for enriching the blood and helping to increase the strength and endurance of men and women who burn up too rapidly their nervous energy in the strenuous strain of the great business com- petition of the day. If you are not strong or well, you owe it | test: See to yourself to make the following how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of Nuxated I times per day Then test your strength again and much you have gained.
