P. Finds Matter Drags Heavily on Hoover’s Drive in North Dakota. BY BYRON PRICE, Associated Press Stafl Writer. | The final month of th: presidential |campaign finds the accumulated griev- | ances of agriculture still dragging very heavily on the wheels of the Hoover candidacy in the normally Republican | Northwest: | Just as the Democrats have awakened | to the seriousness of the anti-Smith | movement in the South, so the Repub- licans here in the Northwestern States no longer speak of the anti-Hoover farm movements as a myth. They re- lize that through Wisconsin, Minne- sota and the Dakotas they must turn in_and fight, and they are doing it. North Dakota is one of the States which both parties are cl now Wwith much earnestne: both sides these claims are coupled with a reminder that much work re- mains to be done before election day, and there are leaders among the Re- publicans and Democrats alike who say quite candidly, when they speak | privately, that if the election were held | |today it might very well turn out a | horse race. Tradition Disturbed. ! Thus has tradition become disturbed |in a State which four years ago stood by Coolidge in the facé of the La Fol- lette crusade and gave Davis only 13.- | 000 votes out of a total of nearly 200,000. | Gov. Smith has traversed the Stete recently, and his Western flings at the Republican farm policies - were broad- { |cast over the Northwest. On his trail have come a swarm of Republican soell- binders, including .Senators Brmkhnrt; and Borah, preaching Hoover. The outstanding. State leaders of the | farm organizations, in turn, are re- | doubling their pleas that Hoover be defeated. North Dakota farmers and business men have passed through trying times. |~ Since November 1, 1920, there have | been 307 permanent failures among | the North Dakota State Banks. Land | BISMARCK. N. Dak.. October 4— | Author of “The Prior to September, 1796, the politi- cal opponents of George Washington accused him of wanting to be king and intending to perpetuate himself in the presidency for life. At that time he announced his refusal of a third term and the fight between Adams and Jefferson began. Backing Adams were the Pederalists.. led by the shrewd and vigorous Hamilton, and with eight years in power back of tham. Backing Jeffer- tionalist, and the growing Democratic- Republican party. Nominations were. made by caucuses of the members of Congress of the rival parties, as they were the only political groups which naturally came together, and transportation problems precluded conventions. Pinckney was named for Vice President with Adams, and Burr with Jefferson, but the Democrats were not fully organized and in several States others than Burr were suppol ed, while a few vital votes were des- tined to be diverted from Jefferson to other prominent Democrats. dssues Are Numerous. ‘The issues were numerous, including | Hamilton's plan for the United States Bank, which Jeffersonians declared un- | constitutional and a surrender to the money power. Hamilton's program also called for the Federal Government’s as- suming the debts of the several colo- nies. in addition to the debts of the Continental Congrcss. The Revolution- ary soldiers were bitter on this score, because they had been largely paid off in paper notes, which they had cashed with banks and speculators at a few cents on the dollar. Now Hamilton proposed to redcem these at full value, enriching the speculators and money powers. The wealthier colonies object- ed to assuming the debts of the poorer, New Englend having suffered heavily in the war and being deeply in debt. while Virginia and other States were relatively debt free. The Federalists adhered to the strong central government plan. while the Democrats stood for the fullest measure of State rights. Adams and Hamilton were accused of copying everything British.

No matter how high we might drive the tariff on wheat, if we have an exportable surplus and we are compelled to sell the whole crop at the price of the surplus, the tariff cannot operate.” Few Accidents Ifipreventlble. From an investigation of a great many accident reports of industrial es- tablishments, covering thousands of ac- cidents, the conclusion has been arrived at that only 2 per cent of the accMents are unpreventable.

Most of the other issues have been crowded into the shadow. Prohibition is talked about, but with no great show of confidence on either side. The State is rated normally dry, yet a large per- centage of its country population is German and wet. Just three months ago, a proposal to repeal the State prohibition amend- ment was lost, 96,837 to 103,696. ‘The difficulties of both parties, from an organization standpoint, are increas- ed by the complicated plight of local vision within the State run crosswise of the old party lines. The names Republican and Democrat are preserved on the ballot, but the prime distinctions are rather between the Non-Partisan League on one side, and the “Inde- pendents” on the other. * State and Fnlonll politics do not mix, and Stafe politics is held para- mount by most candidates. Paradox Parties Formed. ‘This situation has produced in 1928 so queer political phenomenon as a “Frazier-Maddock headquarters” man- aging a campaign for the re-election ; of Senator Frazier, a Non-Partisan Leaguer, running on the Republican ticket, and .Gov. Maddock, a Non- Partisan Leaguer, seeking the governor- ship on the Democratie ticket . Frazier and ‘his colleague, Senator Nye, have said they are for Hoover, al- though the non-partisan wing of the Republican State committee refused to indorse him. Maddock was a guest on Gov. Smith's train. Maddock's Republican opponent, George F. Shafer, is expected to sup- port Hoover but to say little about it. Gov. Maddock is a farmer, who looks vpon himself as a typical member of the farm organizations in revolt against the Republican nominee. He was elect- ed licutenant governor two vears ago on the Republican ticket. Last June he was chairman of the Lowden-pledged North Dakota delegation to the Kansas City convention. Farmers in Co-operatives. Asked to describe the unusual situa- tion of this section of the country, in his slow-spoken, even-temvered way, the governor explained that 85 per cent of directly interested in agriculture, that the farmers are 95 per cent affiliated with co-operative organizations, that these organized farmers had built up splendid industries. including a high- class education system, and that they do not now propose to go on operating at an cconomic loss. “Agriculture has been going through a period here that we consider in- tolerable, that cannot bz permitted to continue,” he sald. “The one man whom we felt was most antagonistic to agriculture was nomi- nated at the Kansas City convention, and the agricultural plank demanded by us was not written -into the platform. Asked whether the farm organization of which he was a member was not supporting Smith in this State, he re- plied, “It seemed to us at the Kansas City convention that it was impossible The farmer organizations were very much opposed to him then, and I have seen on change in attitude since.” GARNER OPPONENT and universal suffrage. Hamilton had the established legislative machinery better organized, and wanted no mob rule. Both sides had their pam- phleteers and newspapers and the vio- lence of attack on character was far worse than anything in modern his- tory. Democratic extremists suggested the need of a guillotine for tyrants and named Washington as the worst of these. Jefferson recounted, not without satisfaction, Washington's re- mark that he never but once regretted accepting a second term, and that was every moment since he had done so. He declared he would rather retire to world, yet ‘his enemies accused him of striving to be king. Jefferson Assailed. Jefferson was equally assailed because of his authorship of the Vir- portrayed as a person of lowest per- sonal morals. His flair for ingenious inventions was mocked, and it was said that as President he ‘would do mothing better than invent a whirligig chair, Hamilton kept a cool eye on practical things and organized steadily where the results would tell. He knew the dublous points in ‘the constitutional plan of election, and had observed that in.1792, for instance, the Governor of Massa- chusetts had protestsd that no author- ity could compel him to certify the choice of electors if he didn't like them or choose ‘to certify their credentigls. Hamilton also knew that the istitu- tion barred office holders. from being named electors, but he knew there was no power to enforce that proviso. He knew that several electors had been sick and absent in the past, and saw to it that none of the Federalists should be missing this time, or, if they were, that the electors present in the State should fill the vacancies. Although the Democrats in Pennsylvania “were ac- cused of spending too much. money for bhandbills and pamphlets, Hamilton probably had the larger funds and spent them more wisely. The French Ambassador injected his views into the campaign, much to the detriment of Jefferson, whom he fa- vored. This episode lost ground for the Democrats in New York and New Eng- land. Meanwhile the Federalists re- membered that every elector could act according to. his own conscience, and overlooked no chance to win even a single friend’in the unfrisndly States. Obligations Uncerfain. ‘The obligation upon electors to sup- port the choice of their State was still a little uncertain, and the final win- ning of one vote for Adams in Virginia, one in North Pennsylvania was a triumph for practi- cal politics. Adams s2cured 71 electoral votes, Jeflerson 68, Pinckney 59 and Burr 30. Virginia gave 15 to Samuel Adams in- stead of Burr. Samuel was a flery Democrat in his Federalist Cousin John’s own State. The result made Adams President, with his greatest rival Vice President. were for scattering names, There were plenty of protests about the returns, In Pennsylvania William Brown of Lancaster led the ticket of electors, but the officials did not record a single vote for him until Gov. Mifflin threatened to jail them. In Maryland. which went 7 for Adams and 4 for Jel- ferson, there were charges that hun- DROPS FRAUD CHARGE Hardin Will Not Contest Primary Victory of Ranking Democrat.

October 4.— Answering recent criticism of Senater Joe T. Robinson, Democratic vice presi- dential nominee, of preachers who in- trude into politics, Bishop James Can- non of Richmond, Va.. chairman of the night, declared that Christ was a “po- litical preacher.” “Jesis was - political preacher, and there never was a parson who used as scathing language as he did when he lessly to their faccs,” Bishop Cannon sald dreds of Federalist voters had been im- ported for the occasion. The individual electors in Democratic States who voted for Adams were accused of bribery and treachery of all sorts. In Vermont the whole election was of dublous legality and Jefferson was advised to protest it. The Democratic majoirty in the House of Representatives might have been agreeable to refusing to count the re- turns, but out of the maelstrom . of vilification the patriotic Virginian alone showed a rool head and calm integrity. “Surely,” 'he said, “In so great a matter the substance and not the form should prevail. I pray you declare upon every occasion my preference for the cholce of the people, substantially ex- pressed, and to prevent ths phenomenon of a pseudo President at so early a ‘Thus he dismissed a contest which might well have won for him an election which many thought had been stolen from him in other ways. ‘The election of Adams in this violent contest gave the Federalists four years more of power, which they proceéded to abuse by the allen and sedition laws, schemes fo disfranchise the rabble where popular suffrage already’ existed and to prevent the growth of popular voting. and other acts which strength- ened the Democrats. Meanwhile, however, Hamilton was able to complete his financial program, and even more important was the ap- pointment of John Marshall as Chief Justice, a post from which he wrote the great series of decisions interpret- ing the Federal powers under the Con- stitution and building up the central- ized Government destined to urvive through generations. Several amendments were proposed to the Constitution to simplify rnd clarify the method of electing a President, to prevent the situation where one party had the President and another the Vice President, and to assure uniform and honest clections. Nothing could be agreed upon. A new, problem was due to frighten the young republic at the Bishop Cannon devoted much of his ve assured. We'll gladly ¢ timate.
