Mehama To Have Community Church % 1 IH 6 M 4 V Fruit Jar Bank The Tripple Alliance Not Substantial Non-Partisan League That the North Dakota Non- Partisan League is fighting for political control of the state of Washington, no une can doubt. Walter Thomas Miils, a nation- al Socialist leader, is campaign- ing in western Washington for the socalled tripartite Alliance. He is one of the foremost ex ponents of t h e Non-Partisan League and is working among labor elements in the navy yard towns. He holds meetings with the grange, the farmers union and the central labor unions and proclaims the gospel of Town ley- ism. The Tripple Alliance is class hatred turned loose in politics and pure Socialism with a pro gram to crucify capital. Walter Thomas Mills was eject ed from Prosser county and po sesi « a m artyr of free speech and the apostle of progressivism. Many western states have the same menace to fight.
