The Emmons County Record argues the state faces a decisive Townley versus independents contest. It labels Townley as a socialist influence and urges county voters to stay in the independent column, organize campaigns, and counter boycott rhetoric before November.
The editor warns that nonpartisan league leaders align with I W W to spark revolution, but notes no success outside North Dakota and a large portion of residents oppose the movement. He urges independents to stay steady as Townleyites cannot carry the county or state in upcoming campaigns.
A long council of items details political feuds against the Townley machine in Emmons county and at state level. It notes anti Townley campaigns, local elections, and calls for Allen and McKenna as anti Townley candidates, plus recent state treasurer figures and public notices on wage rules and a murder inquiry in Turtle Lake.
Citizens urged to support a larger Christian majority for the supreme court and a fusion ticket for state offices. The ballot also includes five proposed laws including restoring Minnie Nielsen’s power, instituting a paper examination for the Bank of North Dakota, limiting public funds loans to non residents, allowing towns and schools to deposit funds freely, and permitting private publication of legal notices.
Independent forces in Emmons County avoid endorsing anti league district judge candidates this primary. They back McKenna for sectional reasons and urge voters to defeat Nonpartisan League tied candidates this fall. They emphasize stopping league control of courts as well as state and county offices.
Christenson is the present independent member of the supreme court and beat the leaguer in the primary. Richardson is the league candidate. Don’t forget Judge Christianson this fall as he seeks another victory.
