...Using the following 11 representative Northern States: Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Montana, Wyoming and North Dakota as examples of the application of this incorrect and vicious estimate of population, we find that the estimated population of these states, based by the War Department upon the draft registration, and used for alloting draft quotas, was 48,306,543. The census returns disclose that these 11 states actually had in 1917 a population of 12,764,423, or, in other words, the War Department had credited to them 5,542,220 more people in 1917 than...

With a rather light, and chiefly green squad, Dobie will have to more than live...

...speak of the "well-known bolshevic tendencies of the Dakotas," referring doubtless to the farmer's government of North Dakota. All of the important measures recently passed by that government are modelled wholly or in part on similar measures which have proved successful in (e.g.) New Zealand, Denmark, England and the United States.
