all public ‘printing.done by the state and distributed in' official pamphlets: But Mr. Olsness bows to the majority decision of the North Dakota legis- lators, who decided on the one-paper plan. For this difference of opimion he is played up as a traitor to the farmers by the Twin Cities papers. But there are two or three traitors at Bismarck. They do not dare to at- - tack any of the important program bills that the League farmers passed, such as the mill and elevator bill, the industrial commission bill and the bank bill. They content themselves with cowardly “sniping” against mi- . nor bills that are intended to make state business more economical and efficient. They are also trying to em- barrass the farmers, both those who belong to the League and the Equity, by attacks on the Consumers stores and the Equity packing plant. The insincerity of these men is shown by the fact that they have waited until the session of the legis- lature was over before they have made public their opposition to these minor bills. Every state official of North Dakota was entitled to admission to the League caucus which met through- out the session. The real farmers who had the welfare of the state at heart, such ‘as Governor Frazier and John Hagan, commissioner of agri- culture and labor, attended the caucus sessions and frequently were asked for their opinions and advice. The men who have since turned on the farmers stayed away.. They remained silent until after the legislature had ad- journed. Then they began their cow- ardly sniping tactics. LESSON OF MORE CARE IN NOMINATIONS T Does not this lead to the inevitable conclusion that they must have been planning treachery right along? The “revolt” is not going to amount to much. The farmers of North Da- kota have worked too long for their industrial program to be put off at last by the treachery of two or three self-seeking politicians who have man- aged to worm themselves into the farmers’ movement. But it does carry a lesson to the farmers of North Dakota and other states. The farmers must be more careful in selecting their candidates, especially their state candidates. - Of the farmers elected to the North Dakota legislature, over 95 per cent remained true and steadfast through- ~out the session. : These men were all selected as candidates by the farmers of their own neighborhoods. There is not much chance for a man to fool his own neighbors and very few mistakes were made. . i 3 It is somewhat harder for the farm- ers of the entire state to pass upon the honesty of men suggested as ca didates for state office. whose honesty will not meet the high tests that were-put-to- members of the legislature, managed to sneak by. They have been subjected to the test and have been found out. They will ‘not be able todo much harm. - It is -a good- thing that the:farmers of } North Dakota have:learned their true _. ' character now, instead of waiting un- "¢ tiklater.: . * » But the farmers in future wfil have to be still more careful in their se- lections. - MORE INTEREST BY WOMEN Caldwell, Mont.

CONGRATULATES NORTH : DAKOTA Mica, Wash. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I want to congratulate the people of North Dakota on what they have acquired by recent legislation. have attracted the attention of the nation by their fearless manner in electing and instructing their officers and representatives, and those elected seem to have done' their- full duty. The banking measure is a model for every other state to follow and con- tains no untried features. The termi- nal elevator bill contains the milling They_ feature, which is very essential and will be a great success. . : The plan outlined in the Leader of March 10 for the benefit of the re- turned soldiers is one of the most beneficial and comprehensive I have yet seen. It follows out the building and loan plan in a liberal manner. To many of the boys- it will be better than the cash, as it gives them a start in life_as owners and not as tenants, and tends to make communities of homes, not tenements. I am pleased to note that the un- cultivated land and the land specula- tor has come in for a just share of A few men, 'MRS. OSCAR C.

There seems to be an oppor- tunity for a grafter to do business in North Dakota under any of the bills passed. I predict for North Dakota the greatest of prosperity under the new conditions. There will be an in- creased immigration to the state, real estate values will be greatly en- hanced, and progressive farmers from other states will keep their eye on North Dakota. J. B.
