William Langer, -reached Monday by a political group meeting at Jamestown, forces the people of this state to determine their stand upon such an issue. 4 : Unless the movement dies aborning, the voter soon will be faced with the question of whether he wishes to sign—or refuse to sign—the recall petitions. : The question merits real thinking. It should be considered dispassionately and in the light of all the facts. North Dakota has had enough of partisanship and prejudice already, The first salient fact is that William Langer legally was elected to the office he now holds. Charges of chicanery in the eleetion should be ignored because, if chicanery was practiced, it probably was practiced by all sides. Most of the accusations made in the indictment of the gov- ernor by the Jamestown group refer to things which happened BEFORE the last election. Some of them were things of which this newspaper has made pointed mention in the past. But the fact that the people elected him with full knowledge of these charges weakens them as arguments for a recall now. zs. 2s & In its editorial of Nov. 6, 1936, after it had become apparent that Mr. Langer had been elected, this newspaper set forth its position in the following words: “He (Langer) is politically reconstituted .. . Though elected by a minority vote, when Mr. Langer becomes gov- ernor in January he will take office as the governor of all the people. On that basis he is entitled to the fair consid- eration of all the people...” More to the point was the recognition given to the talk of a recall which then came from the very same sources which now sponsor the Jamestown meeting. Referring to this phase of the situation, this newspaper said: ig “Before the election—and since the result has been determined—there has been some talk of recall, Such talk is unjustified and unbecoming. It arises from frus- trated ambition. It has no place in the minds of North Da- kotans ... The people, after all, are the masters. It is theirs to approve or reject when they go to the polls at the ap- pointed time and place.” .

As it is, those r now agitating the issue run the risk of branding themselves disgruntled dichards. By their actions, as well as by their own political histories, they raise the question of whether they are any more worthy of trust than those whom they now assail. The Tribune holds no brief for the governor, but there: is no overlooking the fact that a statute of limitations exists in Politics as well as in the civil law; that any indictment against him, to be valid, must be based on the record made by him since he took office last January 5. : piaciaa : G > , To those who will be solicited for money to finance the pros-| | coms. ne seca She found at the door of the trailer talking to @ rather slouchy man who might have been any- f oiira casall sisecroici a word of warning: Othe 3 it ie | et ISIPARRO srousers. where (eireer 30 and 40. gg At Martha's appearance, he tuned quickly. ~ , EI ie! it Betty grinned, “I think he’s just : ln i Daring ‘Explorer HORIZONTAL "Answer to:Previeus Pussie iteday Yes.” Martha Brittain, at the Golden State Auto it has very little chance to succeed.
