GEORGE B. RASMU SSEN, Propnetor 302 Broadway 'F 0, N. D-_ ‘Ward County Candldate Geo..A. Reishus, candidate for repre- sentative from- the 29th legislative dis- . trict, ‘was born near Cottonwood in -- Yellow Medicine county, Minnesota, on May 26, 1886. A year later his parents _removed to Ward county, North Dakota, where they have since resided. His father, Gunder S. Reishus, is thus . one of the early pioneers of that section and is identified with the progress and . development of Western North Dakota. He was the first county treasurer after the county seat was established at Minot, was chosen as a delegate to the’ " three first state conventions after North Dakota was admitted to .statehood and served as register of deeds' of Ward county for ten years. George spent the first twenty years on the old farm just east of Minot. He left the farm in 1906 to enter college, spent two years at Park Region Luther college at Pergus Falls, Minn, two years at Luther college, Decorah, Iowa, and one year at law school at the Uni- versity of North Dakota. After leaving school, he homesteaded a quarter section of land and served as chief clerk and’ deputy register of deeds.of Ward county. In the past year has ‘been connected with the Union Insurance Agency, Inc., of Minot, as secretary of that company. Mr. Reishus ‘was nominated on the Republican ticket in the June primaries George Reishus. as representative from the 29th legisla- tive district dnd indorsed by the Non-' partisan League by a unanimous vote at a meeting held in the court house at Minot on August 11. 3 Something About “Perjury” The Pioneer Express of ~Pembina, edited by a man who recently declared he was proud to be numbered among the old political “gang” of North Dakota, is still attacking the farmers for daring to indorse candidates in the various political parties and succeeding in having them nominated. A recent editorial in the Express declares the farmers who, joined the Nonpartisan League committed “moral and legal per- jury” by registering and voting in any one of the political party primaries June 28, because when they joined the League they read themselves out of all political parties.

A recent editorial in the Wells County Free Press answers the Express as follows: “In other words, the Express, speak- ing for the gang, evidently' wants it understood that a voter is- committing ‘moral’ perjury unless he votes exactly as the gang wishes him to vote; it thus follows, per Express reasoning, that if a man should-change his' mind he would commit ‘moral’ and ‘legal perjury. He - must stay ‘put.”’ He must disfranchise himself because the old gang has rigged up the primary law in such a way that because a man believes in the policies of a certain national party, he must sub- mit to any sort of a deal that may be pulled off in nominating officers to .run a state government ‘which officers’: duties have ‘no more to do with national ques- tions than rehguon has to'do thh rais- ing hogs. “If it ‘be ‘moral’ perjury (in. oontra- diction to ‘immoral’ or ‘unmoral’. perjury, we presume) for a Nonpartisan to. vote either the Republican or'‘Demoeratic— or Socialist—ticket in a state primary which had no direct bearing on national questions, what would be the proper term for the conduct.of state law makers who devise election laws to disfranchise all | ,voters except those who happen to be- . lieve in the prmctples of one of the abuve\ i * parties?, ‘or, perhaps, ‘absent-minded’ perjury. pohhcxans in ofiice" = "Thexr actions would l.\kely be termed * ‘unmoral’ perjury By the Express editor; “Let us have a httle more of such } ‘moral’ pérjury by the voters, Af the - ‘result of the June primary is.a’ “fair indi-. i3 cation, and then prhaps we may have = less of immoral polmcs ‘and unmoral‘ BUSINESS AND SHORTHAND COURSES AT Concordia College, Moorhead, an wfll cost’ you $5 00-a-week. for first-¢lass board, room, use of fine gymnasium, . band privileges and instruction for year , A J.
