D., one of the three men who started the Non-Partisan League and who served as state railroad commissioner dur ing the first league of administration, was retired because of his refusal to follow the dictation of the leaders who gained control over the league. He is a practical farmer, says the Milwaukee Journal. "xno JNon-rartiBan Lcaeue was started early in 1915 at my home," said Mr. Johnson. "A. E. Bowen, L. P. Richardson and I discussed a plan for organizing a movement amoner me larmers to overthrow the politi cal machine that then ruled North Dakota and obtain legislation that was needed by farmers. We wanted a system of terminal elevators own ed by the state or by co-onerative I companies. We wanted laws that would assist in the betterment of marketing conditions. "I was then president of the North Dakota Equity Society. At the state equity convention in Bismarck in 1915, the league plan formulated in my home and was endorsed. Mr. Bowen was engaged as an organizer. "In April A. C. Townley saw the possibility of the league plan and in duced Bowen to follow him. No organization had been formed and it was easy for Townley to assume charge. He raised the dues from 2.50 to $6 a year, then to $8, put organizers at work and soon had an organization of which he was the head. i "At this stage there was practi cally no opposition to the league. IU program was moderate and consisted of demands in behalf of the farmers which were generally recognized as fair and just. Business ', men did not oppose the league. In fact thev supported it financially in the first campaign. . r ; , ,, "Under .Townley'u control (the league program was rapidly, ex tend ed far beyond its original limits.. Ai now proposed it means communitv ownership qf practically everything. Many or tnese state projects arc im practical and have had the effect of driving capital from the state. "Changes have been made in the state government, elective officials be ing made appointive until the gover nor through his appointive power has become a czar. Governor Fra zier is only a rubber stamp for Townley. Carpetbagger theorists have been imported and pluccd in important positions. The stutn in. dustrjal commission, for instance. consists of the governor, secretary of agriculture und labor, two elected of ficials, the other three members beincr appointed. "This Commission has almost un limited control of public funds, has the right to buy, sell and leahe prop erty for business uses by the state. With this power in the hands of in experienced theorists the finish of state industries is not hard to guess. "laxes have increased from 50 to 200 per cent. The league is .starting ull sorts or co-operative enterprihes in addition to the state industries. Stock in these is sold to the leugue members and notes given in payment. These notes are then handled through the farmers' banks organized by the leugue. The whole thing is u sample of high finance that some dav will come down with a crash. "In spite of the failure of muny of the league .schemes Townlev retains power over the league and control of nualrs m North Dakota through con trol of the press. The power to ap point one or more offilcal papers in each county gives the governor this control. "A league press bureau has been organized with funds raised by soil ing stock to league farmers. This uureau manufactures editorial opin ion for the leueue naDers. "There is only one way to prevent the disaster which will follow this comuir.auon oi nign finance and im practical utopianism. The league in North Dakota Is about at the end of us rope so iar as getting more money irom farmers in that state. The funds to finance the movement are now coming from other states. The way ,xo stop tno league is to show the iarmcrs in these other states cxnctl wnat tne league is tiolntr in Nort Dakota, how it has failed'thcrc and wnac me er.a win he there, and else whrtro." .

Hays, Kansas JSiif!f2 IfsWMIIilllllllllllUIIIIIIM BRIDGING THE LAST GAP Between the Farm and the Market UAVE you ever stopped to figure what makes the dilfcrence between the value j 0 of two farms -one which is located 5 to 10 miles from town and the other only one mile? ThMsnd may have the same productive qualities yet the firm nearer town will command a higher price per acre. j THE PRINCIPAL REASON is that it will COST MORE to DELIVER iu probucU TO THE MARKETS. Long Hauls require more time. You can CUT THIS DISTANCE one half or one third by. adoptW.' the RIGHT klad of TRANSPORTATION. Besides deriving yearly profits you you Increase the value of your farm. , The motor adopted must be of a type SUITABLE FOR .THE FARM. A cumbersom, slow moving truck Is little better than the old' team and wagon. Thousands of farmers have found the IDEAL TRUCK for their purpose is" the REO 'SPEED WAQONS There are nearly 25,000 in use today more "REOS" than any other truclci The "SPEED, WAGON" meets the demands oi the farmer because it enables one msn to do the wort ol several men and teams, As us more about 'REOS' Sutton .
