Progressives in North Dakota Think They Know—This Is Their Answer N NORTH DAKOTA the opposition to the Non- partisan league is using in its campaign the slo- gan that “Townleyism must be wiped out.” Progressives of the state, who have had a chance to see what the League program has meant to the people of the state, are sending out this state- ment of what “Townleyism” means: “What is Townleyism ? “Bank deposits guaranteed. “Better grain grades, based on mill- ing and baking values. “Pay for dockage or its return to the farmer to be used as feed for his animals. “The milling of wheat in the state, thereby preventing a double haul and saving the by-products for use in the state, increasing business and indus- try and conserving soil fertility. “The state-owned bank, whereby the funds that belong to all the people are made available to finance the activities that belong to all the people. “A state-owned coal mine to supply at least the state’s own buildings. “An industrial commission charged with the management of the state’s industrial activities, elected by and re- sponsible to the people. “Hail insurance at cost. “Fire insurance on public buiidings at cost. “State bonding of public officials at cost. “State aid to drouth sufferers. “State aid to dairy associations. “Rural credits. “Reduction of the spread between the prices paid to producers and the prices charged to consumers. A STATE OF HOME OWNERS IS AIM OF LEAGUE “A state of home owners (as the homestead act was the most benefi- cent piece of legislation ever enacted by the federal congress; so may the home building association act prove to be the most beneficent piece of legis- lation ever enacted by a state legisla- ture.) “Exemption of farm nnprovements from taxation. “Exemption of the small city home from taxation. “The redistribution of taxes more in accordance with privileges enjoyed and ability to pay. “Uniform warehouse receipts and a uniform sales act. “Encouragement of improvements and discouragement of speculation. “Simplified court procedure. “Equitable assessment of property for taxation. “Thirty days’ notice before mort- gage foreclosure. “A soldiers’ compensation law, the first and the most liberal enacted by any state, “A moratorium act, effective until one year after peace is declared. “The lowest draft cost per soldier of any state in the Union. “Workmen’s compensation, the most liberal in existence. “Benefits to dependents of employes killed. “Beneficial and just labor laws. “Woman suffrage, with provisions enabling all women entitled to the bal- lot to cast their votes. “An eight-hour day and a minimum wage for women. “Stringent regulations as to em- ployment of minors. “Pure drugs and sanitation legisla- tion. “Night schools and enlargement of school facilities. - “Stringent and effective morality laws. “Rural school betterment. “Recall of public officials. “A full line of repairs to be carried by dealers for machinery sold in the state. “Loyalty to the state and obedience to its laws. “Patriotism and love of country. “Free speech and free assemblage. “Fairer railroad rates. “Flood control. “Encouragement of co-operation. “The realization of democracy, as written into our constitutions and pre- served in our traditions. “Each and every one of the fore- going planks of the ‘Townleyism’ plat- form (except the coal mine) has been confirmed, enacted into law or carried into effect by the present administra- tion. Which of these planks is so dangerous that the whole program must be defeated ?” WRITES ABOUT MEREDITH Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Lead- ing farm journals, purporting to rep- resent the farmer, have in their last is- sues editorially praised E. T. Meredith, who has been appointed secretary of agriculture. I have always stated, and have the facts to support it, that we have not a farm paper in Ohio, Pennsylvania or Illinois that repre- sents the interest of either the pro- ducer or consumer. By their contin- ual advocacy of greater production, and by their same degree of cunning used in representing the serum, grain and meat trusts, they have deceived even the very elect of farmers. In “Who’s "Who” Mr. Meredith clailms to be “raised on farm and in town,” with no degree as a farmer from any agricultural college; direc- tor of the United States Chamber of Commerce, representing big business, which is fully supported by the same, including the five packers; Democratic politician for years, being defeated for both governor and United States sen- ator by the farmers of Iowa, and lastly he is director of the Chicago Federal Reserve bank. In his pamphlet in support of the packers, he criticizes the farmers for complaining about overcharges for feed for livestock, all of which may be better understood by those who re- member and know of the venomous at- tack made by the United States Cham- ber of Commerce (of which Mr. Mer- edith is director) against the federal trade commission. Butler, Ohio. E. E. CASSEL. LEAGUE MAKES GOOD Editor Nonpartisan Leader: We are getting results here in North Da- kota already, but we will get more and better results as soon as all our in- dustries get going.. Already the hail insurance has proved its worth and saved the farmers of the state about $5,000,000. The state bank also will be of great help to the people. The grain-grading act is protecting us also. I have farmed 25 years and may safely say the Nonpartisan league has been the means of getting better laws to benefit not only the farmers but all the people in the state. We must car- ry on the message to the people of other states that they may see what united action will do and get rehef by the ballot as we did. I hope Minnesota will buck up and put the League over.
