V. A. managers as well as the Nonpartisan league henchmen know the trials of a fusion campaign. They can picture the logic of fusion from their own political standpoint, but to force fusion is in the words of Kipling “another story.” When A. C. Townley, Fred Wood, Job Brinton, et ‘al, cranked up their “tin lizzies” and fared forth to cafitlire North*Dakota for socialism they did not waste any time on fusion. They were) scHopled in the game of practical politics and knew that fusion in the primary fight always starts complications which often end disastrously, When the'first ticket was put in the field, all candidates ' ‘fil id as Republicans except Patrick Casey of Lis! ON whose Democracy was too well known to admit of his presence on the Republican ballot. | The League publicity agents used to name the! ticket and always end up with “remember Casey | on the Democratic ballot.” Not enough remem- bered “Pat” and he lost out in the November elec- tions. But during the primary campaign Town- ley drove home this admonition: “Republicans vote the Republican ballot and Democrats vote the Democratic ballot.” His advice was the bet- ter part of wisdom. He kept his organization in-) tact and in the fall election came the great fusion | that put the league into office by unheard of ma- jorities. The I, V. A. managers in urging fusion at the primaries through its committee of 45, have struck a serious ‘snag that doubtless: will upset the well laid plans of the Doyle-Johnson faction. Those opposed to fusion under any name or, pre- tense will file a ticket in the primary and the cam- paign will be fought out on the issue: To fuse or not to fuse. The committee of 45 have urged Democrats to register as Republicans. Hellstrom will battle with O'Connor. Platou against Simon and so on down the line. It will be a merry battle for control of the Democratic| party. There is a feeling among Democrats that Svein- bjorn Johnson, attorney general and candidate for supreme court judge, should resign as chair- man of the Democratic party on the ground that) party politics should not be mixed up in the fight for judicial positions. But the I. V. A. program |- of fusion could not countenance this relinquish- ment of party organization until after the prim- aries when it is not expected that Attorney Gen- eral Johnson will,be a candidate to succeed him- self as’‘Democratic chairman. The Hellstrom - Nuchols - Platou - Hildreth fac- tion of the Democratic party .is organizing to take! the.management of the Democratic organization away from the Doyle-Johnson ring. Their battle; cryjis: “No fusion.” They claim to be supported | in their contention by Cordell Hull, chairman of | the pational Democratic committee who is expect- ed to retui.to North : Dakota for a conference! its logical conclusion. Tax relief-is out of the question if such a decision is made. Bénd issues will pile up and state debts will be pyramided de- spite the airy sophistry of the politicians who are urging these utopian schemes merely to keep in power. : HOW HE GOT RICH Most of the money you have made, so far in life, has passed out of your hands and into one of the cash registers manufactured by John H. Patterson, dead ‘now at the age of 77. Patterson was a wizard of psychology. He knew the science of making money,,knew it “from soup to nuts.” From his life, you can learn much that may help you get rich. Patterson’s greatest legacy to the future is scientific salesmanship, of which he was the step- father. His factory, the National Cash Register Com- pany, had the first school in our country devoted exclusively to salesmanship as a science or art. The idea was imported from Germany, In this school, Patterson’s drummers were taught the answer to every possible objection or question that might. be raised by a prospective cash register buyer. From this, learn the value of thoroughness in everything. Learn, also, what Patterson distinctively knew —that success is largely a matter of salesmanship. No matter how wonderful your work, ideas or products, they will bring you success only in pro- portion to your ability to sell them profitably. : Ignorance of the principles of salesmanship keeps many a man and woman working for a frac- tion of what they could get if they developed ‘a greater market for their stuff, through salesman- ship. Maybe you wonder why you sometimes see, in a small store, a cash register worth as much as the store’s whole stock. The answer is: Patterson spread the value of protecting money against theft and keeping ad- curate, analytical records —both functions com- bined in the cash register. 1 It’s a good deal like a business that has $500 invested in a safe that never holds more than $200. The Patterson method of appealing to a pros- pective buyer was to show the buyer how to pro; tect his cash against loss. and how to run his busi- ness so it would at all times show him just where he stood, also reveal lines of unprofitable effort. Patterson made money by showing other people how to make money...’ The customers came first, Patterson second... Usually it’s the other way, cart before the’ horse. That’s why so few small businesses attain the ‘size of the National Cash Register Company. John H. Patterson was one of the business giants now rapidly fading into eternity. He was in the class with James J. Hill, Andrew Carnegie, Henry Flagler, John D. Rockefeller, John Wana- maker and other pioneer leaders of industry. These men were the kind Horatio Alger wrote about—from poor boy to riches. They ‘proved that the platitudes, much laughed at, get the money. And their lives are indelible lessons to young men of today who grumble at having to start at the bottom of the ladder. “Mrs.” is no part of a candidate’s name, is the decision of the Minnesota attorney general. In the same category is “Miss.” Those fair office seekers under privileges bestowed by equal suff- rage are deprived of any advantage and likewise saved from any prejudice that might inure from the use of “Miss” or “Mrs.” before their names on the ballot. The female of the species doubtless will find that the Minnesota decision will cut two ways. RSS Sls eek AE a Now that Ormsby McHarg has pictured the misdeeds of others so eloquently, he might tell the electorate of North Dakota his connection following the Jie prinfaries when the dust clouds of battle! have’ rdlled faway. ~ . Republicans are watching the conflict among; the Democrats with considerable glee while some! of the I. V. A. members are anything but grati-' fied over the turn affairs have taken. That both | the parties are showing so much vitality seems to} argue well for party regularity and a return to old; party lines almost wiped out during the deluge of state socialism. ‘ \ | When Senator Reed’s vote is counted, the nation will ‘know concretely just what influence an ex-| president has in a Missouri senatorial primary. | _ | STICKING TO THE ISSUES. Lower taxes and abolition of state socialism! are the issues of the state primary campaign. One, issue is dependent upon the other. To lower! taxes, the program of state owned industries must | ‘be abandoned. No candidate can be honest with} his constituency and promise lower taxes in one| breath and in the next pledge himself to continue! the league program of state socialism. If bond) issues are to continue and the state plunged deep-| er into the mill, elevator and bank business’ at a loss, taxes will soar and what is more, every pro- perty owner will be mortgaged to try out a strictly | class program demonstrated to be a failure in| advance. | The only issue in the state is whether to end. socialism or to continue it. If the voters of the state return either Nestos or Baker, then they have decided to follow the industrial program to. with the. Ballinger episode ‘and with the ‘colored southern delegates to the Chicago convention that nominated Taft. There is nothing like getting all], the skeletons out of the closet. It begins to look as though the North Dakota campaign needed a high priest like Judge Landis or Will Hays. Jerry Bacon or Ormsby McHarg | would take the job and serve at a salary much less than that paid the distinguished baseball arbi- ter or the movie censor. Fou Some say.that Assistant Attorney ‘General Si- mon dropped the “son” off his name years and years ago, but since being nominated at James- town for governor, he would like to restore “them syllables.” This’ is mere rumor, however. ! é The weighty decision to clean up the state cap- itol yard was a page one news story in the Tri- ‘bune this week.
