Nonpartisan League

1919 cover of the League's newspaper, ''The Nonpartisan Leader'', portraying organized farmers and workers standing tall against big business interests The Nonpartisan League (NPL) was a left-wing political party founded in 1915 in North Dakota by Arthur C. Townley, a former organizer for the Socialist Party of America. On behalf of small farmers and merchants, the Nonpartisan League advocated state control of mills, grain elevators, banks, and other farm-related industries in order to reduce the power of corporate and political interests from Minneapolis and Chicago.

The League adopted the goat as a mascot; it was known as "The Goat that Can't be Got". Provided by Wikipedia
