  • A Socialistic State in the First World
    352 History of North Dakota CHAPTER 16 A Socialistic State in the First World War THE RISE AND FALL of the Nonpartisan League was a part of the agrarian discontent of all the western states, a part of colonial revolt wherever colonial status prevailed. In a similar vein, North Dakota’s response to the First World War was part of a world-wide development. The war was a turning point in the history of all nations and all peoples. Its impact upon government, taxation, agriculture, and industry was everywhere profound. The tremendous efforts, the millions of dead, the violence and destruction, the overturning of social systems, and the rise of Communism and Fascism brought a deepening disillusionment which eroded old values and ways of thinking, weakened democratic and Christian ideologies, and brought a revolution in manners and morals. The titanic struggle profoundly altered every aspect of life throughout the world. What was North Dakota’s response to the war, and how did the war affect the state? As with its agrarian revolt, North Dakota, a land of extremes, made a strong response, stronger than that of many other places. Its response was affected by the state’s colonial status and the attitudes springing from that status. The war, in turn, reacted upon the fundamentally agricultural character of the state, bringing near disaster by inflation to the semiarid grassland. There was continuity as well as change in the war years. The Nonpartisan League and North Dakotans generally did not want the United States to enter the First World War. They regarded President Woodrow Wilson’s rigid position on neutral rights as unjustifiable; they believed that powerful financial and industrial interests, more concerned with profits than democracy, were pushing the nation toward war.

  • W. T. Mills, E. J. B. Allen, J. A. Lee and Socialism in New Zealand
    W. T. Mills, E. J. B. Allen, J. A. Lee and Socialism in New Zealand IT is now some years since Professor W. H. Oliver asked whether 'left' could be considered a direction in New Zealand politics. Although Professor Oliver's main concern was to illustrate a point about New Zealand society I have often thought, since reading that provocative essay, that much of what historians have considered the history of socialism in New Zealand could fruitfully be viewed from this sceptical perspective.1 The somewhat improbable trinity of W. T. Mills, E. J. B. Allen and J. A. Lee tried, at different times, to grapple with the meaning of socialism within the context of New Zealand. They also attempted to work out the ways in which the context not only defined the meaning but the possibility of achieving socialism. Mills and Lee, of course, were active politicians and what they said and thought was usually subordinate to the tactical imperatives of the political situation. Allen, on the other hand, was an activist-intellectual. Each man was articulate, each played out some role within these islands, and together they allow us to take account of the wider context within which the socialist tradition had emerged; for Mills was an American; Allen was English; while Lee was born in Dunedin.2 It may occasion some surprise that the focus should be on these three men to the exclusion of others with some claim to be considered the ideologues of socialism in New Zealand. Men like Harry Holland, Rod Ross, or Sid Scott of the Communist Party, committed to a simple version of class warfare and faith in nationalization, epitomize what many New Zealanders have thought to be socialism.

    “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.

    M 182A P· 1 M 182A National Nonpartisan League. Printed Materials, undated and 1910-1928. 4 rolls positive microfilm. Originals in the Minnesota Historical Society. Collation of the originals: 2.5 feet. This microfilm reproduces printed materials (undated and 1910-1928) relating to the National Nonpartisan League. It is a valuable supple- ment to the microfilm edition of the League's records issued by the Minnesota Historical Society in 1969. 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.

A. PREPARE FOR PEACE “In time of peace, prepare for war.” These are old words. This advice has always prevailed. During the last forty years, all of the great nations of the earth have been preparing for war. The preparation has been made everywhere in order to avoid war. No preparation was ever before made on so large a scale. No other war ever was so needless, so destructive, so world wide as is this war. It-is not claimed that this war has come solely because of preparation for it. Attention is only called to the fact that it has come in spite of preparation, and that no calamity could have befallen any country without’ preparation, so great as is the calamity which has overtaken all these countries because of preparation. Preparation for war, as a means of avoiding war, has proven the most colossal failure in human history. Let this evil council be reversed. Let it be said instead, “In time of war. prepare for peace,” and let this. be especially said con- cerning this war. REAL PROBLEMS It is needless now, however, to bewail this war.

  • “The National Committee at Work,” by Walter Thomas Mills
    The National Committee at Work by Walter Thomas Mills Published in Appeal to Reason [Girard, KS], whole no. 300 (Aug. 31, 1901), pg. 3. Special Correspondence. St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 20 [1901].— Your correspondent called this afternoon at the new national headquarters. He was fortunate in find- ing the new National Committee in session. The room occupied is large, light, conveniently finished and the members sat together around a large table facing each other, in close contact and ready for business. No one could help but be impressed with the direct and business- like manner with which they are doing the business of the new party. [National Secretary Leon] Greenbaum is not only an effective or- ganizer, as everybody knows him to be, but the party can everywhere rest assured that he and the group of comrades working with him will handle the business of the party in perfect order and with the best possible results. The new secretary said that not one word of complaint or dissat- isfaction with the work of the recent Indianapolis convention [Founding: July 29-Aug. 1, 1901] has reached the headquarters, but that the rapidly increasing mail brings from every portion of the country the strongest words of endorsement and good cheer. State organizations under the new party are already under way in Connecticut, Ohio, Oklahoma, Iowa, and Maine. The first applica- tions for charters for new locals in affiliation with the new party came this morning and Girard, Kansas, led the list and will have the first local charter granted to the new party.
