CFUSOTITTTIIVITIISSISIGOIIIVOGS QOO Cushing in f ARE THE FARMERS CRAZY? | Walter ~Cushing, secretary of . the state railroad commission, is quoted as . urging “real” Republicans to put an independent ticket in the field this fall against the Nonpartisan ILeague nom- inees, and in the interview Mr. Cushing makes the same fool error that has been common to the old gang politicians when he states: “It will require united action by the saner element of the state to win out in the fall.” ° : In other words Mr. Cushing calls the 36,000 progressive, independent think- ing farmers of the state insane, Crazy! The farmers ought to fall all over themselves in an attempt to keep such a broad-minded man as Mr. Cushing in the present office he holds—CARRING- TON RECORD. : “FORGET IT, FRIEND” Some political dopester at Bismarck sees the state going to the demnition bow-wows on account of the success at the primaries of the Nonpartisan League, and he suggests the organiza- tion of a real Republican party, to oppose the League candidates in the fall. Forget it, friend. The state isn’t going to the bad on account of the fact that the farmers will have a hand in the framing of the laws—in fact, there isa™ big possibility that there will be con- siderable improvement in the way the state is run—NEW ROCKFORD CAPITAL. i WAITING FOR A MESSAGE " Walt Cushing, secretary and (it is claimed by -some. who are in position-to_ know) the brains of the railroad com-. mission, is reported to have heard the ° name - of Gunder - Olson mentioned through the state as' an -independent candidate for = governor.. Walt, these days, has his ears:abnormally expanded and his periscope fully extended to hear or see anything that will soften, dull, or alleviate the sickening sensation he has been experiencing ever since June 28th. If someone whispers ever so softly that there is a way out of the wilder- ness of defeat in which the said railroad commission is now wandering, we will gamble on it that Walt’s well attuned and hopeful ear will hear it where’er he . may be roaming over the great state called our own.

Indeed we do not doubt but that Walt and several other astonished patriots are right now listening with all their souls for even the faintest sound that might seem like a message of hope. Thus, we imagine, did the great Napoleon listen upon the lonely shore of St. Helena for the shouts of his once glorious legions. - " Ain’t it a'shame—the way some of the boys met the ax coming down as they were going up. ; But to get back to Gunder Olson and - what Walt heard, about Gunder running for governor: we venture the bet that the suggestion about Gunder happened one day when the railroad commission knocked off work (?) about 2:00 p. m. and the boys contemplated the empty chairs there would be after the first of next January. As for Gunder, you may be sure that he is too tickled to have landed for national committeeman before the Nonpartisan League got to acting up, to eéver fall for any forlorn hope like running for governor as the candidate for Norm Black, Parson Guild, and the late Good Government League—peace to - its memory.— DEVILS LAKE JOURNAL. AN IMAGINARY GROWTH W. F. Cushing, secretary of the North Dakota railroad commission, in an interview in the Fargo Courier-News yesterday morning, presumes to state that there is “a growing demand for a real Republican ticket to be submitted to the voters this fall; that the nominees who won out in:the ‘primaries on the Republican ticket won through the col- lusion of Democrats and. {ocialists, and that inasmuch as the Nonpartisans now, in control of the party machinery do not feel bound to support nominees who won cut against the Nonpartisan candi- dates, there is a general movement for a ‘ticket that will unite all the factions of the Republican party this fall.” The past few days must indeed have been fine: “growing” weather, if a movement of the magnitude described by Mr. Cushing could have taken form so very soon- after the results of the recent primary election had become known. The polished secretary of the state railroad commission should speak for himself and not presume to voice the sentiments of the great body of the Republican party of North Dakota. The Palladium _ predicts = that no . organized opposition to the ticket placed" in nomination by the farmers of North Dakota will develop within the ranks of the Republican party, and further pre- dicts that the entire - ticket -will be\ victorious in the November election. The people have registered their choice: at the primaries in too emphatic a manner to leave room for doubt as to - the final outcome, and political sore- ‘heads and . party . disruptionists ~ will meet ‘with scant encouragement from the wvoters mnext fall. —BISMARCK Farmers and ’ linois Thresher Co. v - Threshermen From all reports of crops in the northwest at this time, you will probably want a separator or a steam engine.
