OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS One Year Six Months Three Months THE STATE TICKET. The most important thing to do election day, November. 2, is to VOTE. Most voters intend to vote right. Regardless qf what you and I may think, the other fellow has a thinker of his own and when it comes to votipg he will use that “thinker” and vote what he believes to be right. i This being a fact, it does not remain for anyone to TELL the other fellow how to vote. That’s his business. But we believe it entirely in order to hold some of our candidates up to the “candle” for closer inspection, If by so doing a voter receives some enlightenment, the desired effect will have been accomplished, i In the first place let’s look through the little pink ballot. _ Tt looks clear as crystal. We say, vote yes, by all means, when you pick this up, because you are voting for good roads and sound principles, and everybody believes in that. y , Governor and Lieut. Governor. Jake Preus and Corporal Louis Collins, when compared with the other candidates for the governor’'s and lieutenant governor’s offices, stand head and shoulders above the- rest. The thought we mean to convey is that “the principles for which they stand loom up head and shoulders over the prin- ciples and policies advocated by the others. The friends of “Larry Ho” admit that he has no chance. They admit that the real race is between Preus and Shipstead. We hold no ill feel- ing toward Mr. Shipstead. He may be as good a fellow per- sonally as most men and better than the average, but he is a recognized Townley “tool” and -we cannot afford to have Town- ‘ley the aulgreme power in Minnesota. He has abused that Ppower in North Dakota and should not be trusted.here. He, and other socialist leaders, have viciously maligned Preus and his ticket, while Jake has not once mentioned, Shipstead or Hodgson, but has conducted a good clean campaign. He s sincerely for the state and where hi§ co-operative plan has] been presented and understood, the farmers prefer it to Townly’s plan. o g Secretary and Treasurer, For the offices of secretary of state and state treasurer, * Mike Holm, of Roseau, and Henry Rines, of Mora, are the republican nominees and should win by a handsome margin. They are both capable, honest and conscientious men and are deserving in every way. : i Attorney ‘General. . For attorney general, Clifford ‘L. Hilton, the present official, is in every way superior to T. V. Sullivan. The Daily News which has been devoting much space to Nonpartisan can- didates, has no hesitancy in supporting Mr. Hilton. In a recent editorial the News said: B “As-a matter of fact the attorney generalship is an im- portant office—a most important office. In the first place its incumbent must be an all around man, a level headed lawyer, learned in the law and not given to going off at half cock. The biggest business in Minnesota is that of the state itsélf and the attorney_' general has a more imposing client than any otHer lawyer in the state. He’s got to be a mighty good lawyer. During the incumbency of Clifford L. Hilton, the attorney gene;n]qhip has been handled with ability, fairness and all due initiative. The experience he has acquired in the office, in which he came up from the ranks, makes him better qualified than he was two years ago. He knows the job and his knowl- edge represents an investment by the state which the state should not now sacrifice. He has administered his duties on the basis of service and not politics. It is significant that during Mr. Hilton’s term, there has been no criticism of his office. He has made good. Its most severe critic today is Sullivan.” ! 2 For Congress. | Whe!.her you like Harold Knutson or not, the voters of this district must admit that he has accomplished much in congress. This fact, coupled with the fact that Mr. Lindberg hqs made a failure at the same job, should return Mr. Knutson with a handsome majority. v = i L Ed. Rako Best Man. Ed. Rako deserVes the support of the voters from this county for member of the legislature. He was one of the most earnest workers in that body and his record for the past term is exgellent. He accomplished many thinks for Bemidji, Bel- 4 tl:aml county and Northern Minnesota. Being a good farmer !nmgelf, the farmers know that they have a true friend at court in hqn. He hgs served but one term, and with a record such as his, is deserving of another term at least. He is a “square shootgr" and a tireless worker and every class of citizens will be' fairly and equally represented by Ed. Rako, ‘the people’s champion.” \ i B ———— .- Judge Dibell is one of the finest men in the state; modest, retiring, but big and brainy; a man who is always interested in the casesbefore him; a hard worker, fair and honest with all. Such a man is a credit to the supreme court of Minnesota and such a man it will be an honor to elect. Remember the name, Homer B. Dibell. FRCRBE A The last census was a difficult one to take. Most of the population was counted twice—at home, and then again at Los Angeles, Newport or Palm Beach. ) © .. The laws of thig country were made to be enforced against everyone but you.

It’s a question of “for or against” with' the National Nonpartisan league the crux of the situation. Democrats, Republicans and Inde- pendents who are opposed to the Na- tional Nonpartisan league have com- bined on a Democratic ticket which opposed Nonpartisan leaguers in the republican column on the state bal- lot. a5t Chief fight is over the governor’s chair, as is usual in the North Da- kota situation. Governar Lynn J. Frazier, incumbent, Nonpartisan leaguer, is running for third term election. He is opposed by J. F. T. O'Connor, of Grand Forks, who ap- pears in the Democratic column but represents practically all forces of whatever political stripe opposed to the Nonpartisan rule. E. F. Ladd, president of the North Dakota Agricultural college at Far- go, holds the Nonpartisan endorse- ment for U. S. senator. ‘He is op- posed by H. H, Perry of Ellendale, fusion candidate, Candidates for congress in first district are O. B. Burtness, Grand Forks, a fusion candidate and John Baer, incumbent, Non-Partisan. In the second district the candidates are! George Young, Valley City, a fusion candidate and incumbent, d Ole Olson of New Rockford, Non-Partisan J. H. Sinclair, incumbent Nonpar- tisan from the third district seeks to succced himself. M. E.CHURCHIN N. D.

AMERICAN CITIZEN WELL A RECEIVED IN GERMANY The_small, but ancient, city of Hu- sum, in Slesvig, recently prepared for an American citizen a public recep- tion such as had not been given to a visitor for gemerations. The recipi- ent of these honors was Ludwig Nis- sen, a prominent citizen of New York, who distinguished himself during the war by his leadership in all patriotic American movements. , After the Armistice, Mr. Nisgen, like many other Americans of Ger- man birth, sent boxes of foodstuff to his suffering relatives in Slesvig, 1t was then pointed out to him that this system of relief was leading to a very unfair distribution of food, and that needy peoplt, who were not so fortun- ate as to have relatives in the United States, had to go hungry. Mr. Nis- sen thereupon dispatched food to his native town, addressed to the Burgo- master. A ‘ When some weeks ago the gener- ous New Yorker visited Germany to inquire into the working -of relief schemes in which he ‘is interested, the whole population of Husum turn- ed out, led by their aldermen with theq Burgomaster at their head, to welcome their American benefactor, who was not a little astonished at the tremendous hurrahs with which ‘he was received in his gaily decorat- ed native city. i KKK KKK KKK KKK KKK s GRANT VALLEY * o b kO o ok bk % % Mrs. Charles Barclay returned to her home in Bemidji' Sunday after a week’s visit at the C.
