"The only way to keep the non-partisan
league nut of Oregon is to keep
your nionev in your pockets and sign
no checks," was the parting advice of
Arthur Foster, tho Civile. N. 1).
farmer at the close of bis address last
night in which he exposed the costly
workings, of llie non-partisan league
of Norlb Dakota, which has fettered
that, state with its colli nil for veurs
past.
Mir. Poster, who is an uble and con
vincing speaker opened the eyes of
his audience wilh his revelations from
first hand experience anil his state
ments were bneked up with facts and
figures. The audience was a small,
but representative one, only about
100 being present from the citv and
immcdialo vicinity .including a nun,-,
her of bankers, and business mid pro
fessional men, who after hearing Mr.
Foster's address, together wilh their
general previous knowledge of the
non-partisan league, strongly feel
thai. Oregon docs not want to permit
that orgiiiiizalion to gain n foot-hold
in Oregon.
Tho non-parlisnu league controls
all the slate offices. Hie legislature,
state banks and most of the news
papers of North Dakota, and since its
control of several voars past has
tripled (he laxes of that state and
increased Hie tux limit to the skv.
The stale tax bus been increased .'100
iier cent during the pnst four vears.
Not only does the league control the
ma.iorily of I he newspapers, but it bus
put innnv of the newspapers which
opposed I hi! league, out of business.
One salient fact brought out lv
Mir. Poster incidental to Ihe league's
controlling all the state banks wns
that through I be league's machine..
tions every citv, town, township und
county in North Dakota must deposit
its funds in llie main state bank, and
no stato examiner is allowed to ex
uniino tho hooks and records of this
bank.
Another feature of interest be
brought out and asserted positively
was thai (be leaders of the North Da
kota non-partisan league are nb-o-lulelv
disloval and are traitors to the
country, ullhough the ninin body of
Ihe league is loyal. The leaders arc
all men of exceptional ability also, he
staled.
Mr. Foster .said flint the slato of
Washington had becomo infested wilh
the non-partisan league propaganda,
so lunch so that tho league adher
ents would probably capture the state
offices and legislature nt the coming
election. The league is trying to tin
a f,iot-holil in Oregon and he pointed
out that the best wnv to keep it out
was as related at the boginniiiEr of
this storV.
State Senator Waller Pierce of f.a I
fliande briefly addressed the meeting!
ir. behalf of his divided session plan
for the legislature.
