As a} Gunder Olson, national committeeman. federal office-holder his resignation has been expected for sometime. What would be more fitting than for him to call a convention of re- publicans iandpresent: ‘his: resignation and after an accoun# of: his ‘steWaf@ship continue to refrain from active political ‘management of the party as he has since his appointment. : Surely the federal law will not- prohibit him from continuing a republican. Of course the I. V. A. committee fungtioning through Burleigh Spalding? naturally raise. the objection that Mr. Olson\¢annot function under the federal law., In the wpeantithe, Mr. Olson could preface his re- tirement in no better way than to call the repub- licans of the state together and before them ex- press his intentions. Doubtless before long; Mr. Olson will make ‘a statement that will quiet the concern over his positicn expressed by the committee of forty-five. Those who have honored Mr. Olson in the past know that he has done nothing-nor will do: any- thing that conflicts with the dignity of hig: pres- ent official position or violate a federal statute. |, Tssuing a call for republicans to meet and stating to them frankly the situation that confronts him as both na republican committeeman and federal office helder should not injure the feel- ings of the tnost punctilious member: of the com- mittee of forty-ti FIRE PROTECTION There seems to be a tend in sone election @ betier f in for tt ne pu se "4 in the matter of k or other eq plant the present horse and wa better fire protection to the through the practice of economy in the city budget. The peo- ple did not vote ageinst fire protection within the city’s means a impression. A light truck, it has been pointed out by mem- bers of the city commission, can be purchased at once eliminating the’ horses. Later when the city is in better financial circumstances the more expensive equipment can be added if thought ad- visable and the truck purchased immediately would serve as a secondary unit. ‘ With the city registering warrants and unable to meet some of its pressing obligations, the prob- lem of purchasing a high price piece of equipment is a hard one and one which has caused the city fathers considerable worry. The matter of fire insurance rates is being considered, it. is ‘alleged: It is problematical ‘whether the acquisition; ofigne piece of equipment will affett trates one way ,or-another, but the fact remains that the responsibility for the best fire protection for the money available is upon the shoulders of the city commission and nowhere else. Deliberate neglect to afford the best imme- diate protecticn available only invites disaster, the blame for which, if any occurs, will be upon the commission. ; MESSAGE OF D. R.

Of the four jitems, “an absorbing.interest” may, at first blush, be set down as of paramount importance, since it isn’t so hard to keep on living while each fresh | morning holds promise-of a new adventure.

GRONNA’S ANNOUNCEMENT Former Senator Gronna’s an- nouncement of his candidacy for the Republican senatorial nomination had been expected, hence it has caused no surprise. Mr, Gronna has served in the national house of representatives and also in the senate. His last sen- atorial term expired in 1921, and he was a candidate for renomination at the state primary in 1920. Some months before the primary it had been thought probable that he would re- ive the endorsement of the Non- ‘artisan league, but Mr. Townley de- veloped other plang and Dr. Ladd was given the endorsement of the league central organization. In the cgntest which followed. with Messrs. Gronna and Ladd as the chief contenders and Frank White occupying the position of minor third candidate, Mr. Ladd was nominated, and the Republican land- slide that fall made his election a certainty. be ‘TS Aptis his’ constitutional right, Mr. fronna makes his candidacy .subject ‘tothe decision of no conference or anything of the sort.. His announce- ment is absolute, regardless of what bearing others may believe that it may have on any of the other issues which are to figure in the coming campaign. vealg the fact that it is obviously in- tended to appeal to as many people as porsible while giving offense to as few as possible. It is so framed as to indicate a friendly feeling toward the ieague element—whidch’ has a voting strength which is not to be ignored— and at the same’time it is sufficiently reserved to furnish no basis for the charge of undue‘radicalism, a feature which may be expected to appeal to hhoge who are ‘fot! leaguers. ‘Al rather ‘interesting’ feature of the statement is thé fact''that in’ so far as it deals with» public questions at all, it touches. chiefly on matters within the jurisdiction of the state ather than of the nation. | Mr: Gron- ra is.in' favor ofithe completion of tho mill and elevator,/as gmost' other peo- dle are.

In his gen- eralization on freight rates, banking etc, Mr. Gronna takes the safe course eclaring that, there should be no discrimination, Again, he strikes a te that will make its appeal to every yoter, for who is not,opposed to dis- grimination? Mr. Gronna’s statement has added nothing to the store of information. It was known that he would be a, candi- date, and most people could have made a fairly accurate guess as to the char- acter of his announcement. It is known that Senator McCumber will be a candidate, and Mr. McCumber’s 8 emeritus of -Harvard university, recently leaped |announcement, when it comes, will be polished and inoffensive. There will doubtless be other candidates—one or more—in the field, and it: is. around the lidentity, of these that real interest is developing for on the identity of the one:or more candidates who have not yet been announced depends, in Jarge measure, the shaping of the coming campaign.—Grand Forks Herald. MR. GRONNA AND THE LEAGUE Former Senator A. J..Gronna, in throwing his cap into the ring for the nomination for United States senator, makes a very frank bid for the sup- pert of the members of the Nonpar- tisan league. Ignoring ,almost entirely national affairs, on which he would be expected to outline his attitude, Mr. Gronna de- votes the greater part of his “plat- form” to state issues. ° “I favor the early completion of the gtate mill and elevator and there is no ‘reason why jt should not, be com- pleted by August 1, 1922,” he an- nounces,' but does not state what part a United States senator can take in completing the mill or operating it. Would he favor the plan of operation “ollowed at the Drake mill? Or would RHEUMATIC TWINGE MADE-YOU WINCE!

In regard to the Bank of North Da- kota, he says. “The Bank of North Dakota could and should be made a real farmers bank to finance the farmer, “and. the state industries.” 7 And he is silent on the part a United States senator will have in operating a'state bank. Would he have dt used ito circulate Senator Ladd’s fiat money? No mention whatever is made of na- tional_isgyes, but. Mr. Gronna devotes his ae platform to state affairs. Andéthe**platfétm. is a most: palpable bid for the ‘support of members of the Nonpartisangegeue., Evidently it was prepared soll for the purpose of en- listing league sypport. ‘Its treatment of state affairs'can be explained ‘on no other grouad. If that platform expresses Mr. Gron- na’s attitude honestly he is entitled to the official support of the league, as well-as*to the support of individual members of it. No candidate’that the ‘Nonpartisan league as an organization could put forward could go further in | indorsing the league program than Mr. |Gronna hag done.

If he wants support of the approach- ing Nonpartisan league convention, he should frankly seek it. If, on ‘the other hand, he wants the support. of the approaching Republican ,conven- tion, he should seek that on a. plat: | form that will square with Republican principles—Fargo Forum. | ADVENTURE OF | | THETWINS | Se - -—% By Olive Barton Roberts _ The Electric Mountain lay ‘before. the “Twins, one of the Seven’ Moun- tains they had to cross to get to the Kingdom of the Diddyevvers. ‘Sparks were flying from’ its tan- gles of criss-cross wires, snipping and snapping and snarling’ and jumping, until the mountain looked like a mijlion angry cats, or a hun- dred trolley cars off the track. “Ooooh!” shivered Nancy. awtul, Nick.” “Oh, come on,” urged Nick, cour- agcously. “We've got on rubber shoes, and Mr. Tim /Ping says we can't get hurt. So they started up. The sparks jumped at them and snapped at them and flashed at them, but the Twins never felt a thing. It was true that their galoshes made them perfectly safe, and they knew better than to touch anything with their hands. Near the top the sparks became so furious and fast that you'd certainly have thought a giant had set off a million Fourth-of-July. sparkera at oncel. f t But, Nancy and Nick walked through hem as bravely ag lions.
