Paid Advertisement POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT of John S, Gogin I hold that since our forefathers in Inde- pendence Hall, on_the battlefield, and by our National Constitution provided for and meant to guarantee in perpetuity to posterity for us, a Republican and representative form of government, it is our right, it is our duty, to maintain the treasure which they thus gave to_their posterity. B 1 hold that since the farmer—the real farmer—is no longer represented in any branch of our National government; and since the farmer and his industry is the most necessary and essential part and portion of our nation and its industries, we mnot only no longer are in sentative and democratic government, but our most worthy men and industry have been degraded, debased and destroyed to the great peril of our people and country’s welfare, In brief, I hold that all those.ills which we as a people are now heir to have arisen from the above fact and the further fact which the light of analysis reveals, that this government in which we no longer have any voice or proper recognition, has, for many years, maintained a more hostile and de- structive attitude toward the farmer and his industry than toward the convicted criminal. Therefore: If I, a real farmer and a can- ' didate for delegate to the coming National, ' -Convention of the Democratic party, am, in the March primary election, chosen by the people to there represent them, I will, with all the power and force of my mind and body, en- ~ deavor ' to . along those lines and for the - benefit of ‘the farmers and people of my country, leave a decided impress upon the deliberations of that convention and in the party platform which it adopts, Signed, JOHN S.: GOGIN, Osnabrook, North Dakota.
