  • The Nonpartisan League
    FURTHER READINGS ON The Nonpartisan League “The history of the League is a compelling chapter in the struggle by farmers throughout our country’s history. The dramatic story of the NPL’s rapid rise to power and equally rapid decline has long been of interest to historians and other scholars … The League appeals to nonacademic readers as an exciting story of political and social confrontation played out by seemingly larger-than-life characters.”1 The standard work on the Nonpartisan League remains Robert Loren Morlan’s Political Prairie Fire: The National Nonpartisan League, 1915-1922 (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1955); reprinted by Greenwood Press (1974) and Minnesota Historical Society Press (1985). Morlan's well- written, evocative account depends largely on League sources and offers an interpretation favorable to the organization. Morlan’s work includes an extensive bibliography of books, government documents, pamphlets, articles, theses and archival documents regarding the history of the League. In 1985 the Minnesota Historical Society Press published an updated bibliography of works about the League, The Nonpartisan League 1915-22: An Annotated Bibliography, by Patrick K. Coleman and Charles R. Lamb. Their bibliography includes works that have become available since Morlan’s book was published. Another major work is NPL journalist Herber Gaston's The Nonpartisan League (New York: Harcourt, Brace & Howe, 1920); it is totally undocumented, but is the most often cited of the "first generation histories." Other early works include Charles Edward Russell’s The Non-Partisan League (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1920), and Andrew A. Bruce’s Non-Partisan League (New York: Macmillan Co., 1921).

    “READ AND BE CONVINCED:” THE IMAGE OF THE NONPARTISAN LEAGUE IN ITS CREATIVE PRODUCTION, THE EARLY HISTORIES, AND WIDER POPULAR CULTURE A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By John Edward Hest In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Major Program: History July 2018 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title “READ AND BE CONVINCED:” THE IMAGE OF THE NONPARTISAN LEAGUE IN ITS CREATIVE PRODUCTION, THE EARLY HISTORIES, AND WIDER POPULAR CULTURE By John Edward Hest The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Thomas Isern Chair Angela Smith Mark Meister Approved: 7/6/18 Mark Harvey Date Department Chair ABSTRACT In this thesis, I examine the image of the Nonpartisan League in several different contexts, arguing that the League carefully crafted their advocative political image and their opponents painted them as disloyal socialists. The Nonpartisan League was an agrarian radical political movement beginning in North Dakota in 1915, and both its proponents and opponents created powerful images of it. I first examine the creative output of two Leaguers, the poet Florence Borner and the cartoonist John Miller Baer. I then transition to four competing histories of the Nonpartisan League, published from 1920-21, by Herbert Gaston, Charles Edward Russell, William Langer, and Andrew Bruce, all of whom craft divergent images of the League dependent upon their vantage point.

The Council asserted that the League’s policies were disloyal, a threat to the war effort and to American society in general. Emotionalism stirred by wartime tensions increased opposition to the League. Eventually the League chose to withdraw from Nebraska to avoid the risk of extended court battles with the Council of Defense.

Although some items in this edition were filmed in their entirety in the 1969 edition, and the title pages of many others were included as a bibliographic aid, much of the material in this edition does not appear in the earlier edition. HISTORICAL SKETCH The National Nonpartisan League, a political protest organization of farmers and workers, was organized in North Dakota in 1915 to combat economic and political exploitation of spring-wheat farmers; it spread rapidly through the midwestern and northwestern states during the early years of World War I. The League's reform program was heavily socialistic, and the organization encountered intense opposition, led by forces that felt threatened by its success. Prior to the United States' entry into World War I, these opponents attempted to discredit the League by accusing its leaders of being socialists, anarchists, and members of the 'In- dustrial Workers of the World. Following the nation's entry into the war, they attempted to brand the organization and its followers disloyal, seditious, and pro-German. During the post-war "Red Scare," they again returned to their pre-war themes. The League declined almost as rapidly as it had risen and by 1924 no longer existed as a national organization.
