Their actions remind me of a picture post card I saw 'some time ago of a dog making record time with a tin can tied to his tail. - We seem to have tied tin cans to a good. many: office seekers’ political tails, when we nom- inated a’'farmers’ ticket. < 1t’s really amusing to see the fan- tastic antics of the disgruntled office seekers im- their framtic efforts to . shake off those cans. Poor “Proggy” most of alll and he can not work 1f loose! . Then' there is Burdick, that staunch _friend of the farmer backed up and boosted for. office by the railroads, in- chamber of ' surance interests, the commerce, and all the other political buccaneers. It’s our one best _guess that any man who has the backing of such a bunch is a good man for the farmers-to elect to stay at home. . We have nomindted men who want what - : we want, and are anxious to give it to us. Why should we vote for men who are backed by gnenfwho_se chief interest is.to prevent us from getting: it?
