| Transcription | "Congressman John M. Baer in this cartoon pictures what has happened in North Dakota. Although railroad commissions in all other states have allowed the railroads to raise freight and passenger rates, the North Dakota administration has prevented increased rates from going into effect until the matter can be threshed out in the courts" - Caption with cartoon in Nonpartisan Leader, Nov. 15, 1920. |
