The New York Tribune reviews the
constitutions of the four proposed new
state and pronounces them admirable
documents. That of North Dakota is
spoken of as particularly conservative.
In concluding its editorial the Tribune
says: "In population, in the intelligence
of their inhabitants, in the remarkable
facilities extended for education, in the
development Of many forms Of industry,
these new states long ago demonstrated
their right to place in the union. The
skill and moderation they have shown in
the preparation of these constitutions is
q fresh proof of their natural title to
membership in the great American
family +

THE fallacy of attempting prohibition
where the sentiment is not strong enough
to enforce the law, was shown the other
day in case from Ransom county
which is, theoretically, a prohibition
county. Two saloon keepers were
"pulled" at Sheldon for violating the
liquor law. They we're fined and the
county treasury was enriched only few
dollars thereby. Thus it Is that liquor
is sold and the city and county is out the
several thousand dollars they would get
under high license system. In some
counties and cities, like Bismarck, for
instance, the doing away with licenses
would deprive the treasury of half its
revenue and necessitate the addition of
another dollar to every dollar of tax each
citizen now pays.

AT the Legislative convention for the
Twenty-sixth district, comprising the
counties of Kidder, Emmons, Logan and
Mcintosh, held at Napoleon on the 4th
inst. j. FL. Worst of Emmons was nomi-
mated for the senate and George w.
Lille of Mcintosh and L. d. Belden of
Logan for the lower house. 1t seems
that Hi Raymond and his friends got up

The last seen OF Judge. Gray he was
faced toward the country with goodly
supply of stick candy in one pocket for
the babies and the manuscript Of a
speech on "What Know About Farm
ing." to be delivered at any meeting Of
the farmers alliance he may run across.
Althougha dyed-in-the-wool democrat,
Gray expects, by his suave, glib, razzle-
dazzle talk to make republican farmers
believe that by q special dispensation Of
providence he is running for Office and ia
great calamity can only be averted by
his election. This is 9 bad year for
hypocrites. The democrats nominated

cans will not be guilty Of deserving their

ALL the republican Legislative conven.
tions thus far held have instructed the
nominees for Hon. Gilbert A. Pierce for
the United States senate. The endorse.
ment given the ex-governor is earnest
an enthusiastic. It is not given because
of local popularity, but because Of per-
sonal worth and an appreciation Of pecu-
liar fitness. Governor Pierce is an able,
digniied and honorable gentleman. His
popularity is co-extens,ve with his ac-
quaintance and his ambitions, desires
and feelings are above and beyond local
or sectional lines. To be one of the first
senators from the great state of North
Dakota is laudable ambition, in the
attainment of which the friends of Gov
ernor Pierce. on every side, wish him
success

Hon. p. F. MCCLURE, of Pierre, ex-
commissioner Of immigration, finally
yielded to- the urgent and unanimous
demands Of his party, and accepted the
nomination Of governor on the demo-
cratic ticket in South Dakota. OF course
Mr.. Mcclure has no hope of success, but
he will secure the full party vote. His
acceptance simply emphasizes his fealty
TO the party Of his choice. Mr.. Mcclure
is young man Of pure instincts an
able, honorable and polished gentleman,
who makes friends wherever he goes.
The only mistake Of his life and training
seems to have been the choice Of political
fellowship.

SOME democrats friends Of the candi-
dates-do not quite digest the statement
of Joe Hare that he will get seventy-ive
more votes than any other democrat on
the ticket. They don't quite understand
this and interpret it to mean that Joe is
flirting with the republicans and just to
get one vote, you know-would even al

What was first looked upon as jest
now bears more serious aspect and it is
possible that the democrats Of the Boston

Gnguished citizen-the Hon. John L.

elect two United States senator's. We
must make no mistake this fall. We
must not elect a democrat no matter how
friendly, personally, we may feel towards
that candidate. The democratic candi-
dates will say to republican farmers, Gn
order to get their votes), that they will,
il elected, vote for Hon. Gilbert A. Pierce
for senator. Intelligent men will not be
caught by such chat. It is the rule of
all Legislative bodies to nominate United
State senators in caucus. Democrats
will not be allowed to participate in a
republican caucus. We cannot
run any risk in this matter. There are
two republican senators to be elected,
and it would be q burning shame if
Burleigh county and Bismarck, the capi-
city, should elect a single man, not
entirely in sympathy with the dominant
party Of this territory and the nation.
We would have no standing at home or
abroad. Under a territorial form of gov
ernment party has not meant much in

paid to party lines. Old New England
farmers need not be advised of the inn
portance of straight work under state
hood. They are used to it in the east.
North Dakota is about to take her place
in the national sisterhood, and there is
responsibility resting on every citizen.
This is distinctively farming COM
munity and each and every candidate on
the republican ticket are clean, honorable
men, and pledged to such measures as
shall most benefit the farmers; and being
republicans they will be in n position to
command the confidence and support of
their fellow republicans, who will COM
pose the larger portion of the legisla-
ture. The intention of the democratic
nominees may be ever SO good, but COM
posing as they will the meagre minority,
they will not be in position to crafty
either their own ambition or accomplish
anything for their constituents.

The following excellent advice from
the Mandan Pioneer:

q L.
Now that we are coming into statehood,
1t Is not enough for a man to hold up. his
hand and say that he is a republican,. We
must judge men by their WORKS. A man
who always bolts ticket that is not made
time, and invariably gets beaten and votes
and works the other way--is no republi-
can. Now that we have come into
statehood. this is DO time fol fool
ing: Bolting tickets may be excusable
under some circumstances. but when a
convention is held at which there is no
one way-at which there is no evidence Or
charge OF high-handed proceedings-at
such a time it is the duty Of every party
man to stand BY the work of the conven-'
ton. A man that does not do that,
whether he is witt, uS"r against us, should
be ruled out OF the party. This g0-as-you.
