Mention the Leader When Writing Advertisers A Talk With Our e,aders BY OLIVER S. MORRIS, EDITOR The 1920 election, as every farmer remembers, was remarkable for the interest that all the political candi- dates showed in the farmers. Particu- larly was this so in the northwestern states, where the Nonpartisan league was organized strongly. The League had candidates for the legislature in most districts, but the old-line Repub- lican and Democratic candidates claimed to be just as friendly to the farmers as the League candidates. “Elect us and we’ll give you just as good laws as the League could give you,” was their universal cry. The national Republican landslide resulted in that party controlling the legislatures of nearly every western and northwestern state. What did they do when they got in power? The next issue of the Leader will tell you. With the exception of one state—Wis- consin—the legislatures have all ad- journed .and correspondents of the Leader who have watched the various sessions closely will tell what the leg- islators did—and what they failed to do—for the benefit of the farmers. * * * With a name and a full set of offi- cers and directors the United States Grain Growers, Inec., are daily getting closer to being ready to operate and bring closer co-operation among the grain growers of the nation. The new organization will use all existing co- operative facilities. The chief among these will be the Equity Co- Operatlve exchange, through which grain grow- ers of Minnesota and the Dakotas have been co- operatmg for years past. In the next issue of the Leader Ralph Harmon, assistant to President J. M. Anderson of the Equity exchange, will tell the story of that organization, its beginnings and early struggles. Don’t think that the United States Grain Growers, Inc., are going to have any straight path to success. If the or- ganization truly represents the farm- ers it will be fought by the grain gamblers at every step, just as every genuine farmers’ movement has been fought. By learning of the fight that the Equity has been having the new organization may be able to avoid some of the gamblers’ pitfalls. * * * We haven’t been able to find space recently for as much news as we would have liked from the new League state —Wisconsin. One of the state offi- cials who has been particularly watch- ful of the interests of the farmers is Edward Nordman, director of the Wisconsin bureau of markets. Mr. Nordman has given the Leader a statement on what he believes is the matter with conditions today and what he believes the remedy is. We will find space for it in an early issue—the next issue, if possible. * * * Many Leader readers are sending us copies of letters they have written to business firms who do not now adver- tise in this paper, asking them to give their advertising Dpatronage to the Leader because it is publlshed in the interests of the farmers and is there- fore read by them. We are sendmg each writer of such a letter an orig- inal autographed cartoon by Baer or Morris as a mark of appreciation. There are just a few of these cartoons left. Write your letter soon if you want to get one. * * Baer and Morris are both drawing some splendid cartoons for the next issue of the Leader. Watch for them.
