TO WARM PIERCE's SHOES /?
To Whom Will the North DakOt:
SenatorShip Fall Next Time?

Senatorship Fall Next Time?
Special to the Globe.
FARGO, Nov. 15.-It is now settled
that the Democrats will have 81 men,
berS of the legislature and the Inde-
pendents 8. leaving the Republicans So,
to 40 for the combined opposition. 1t is
not reasonable for the Democrats to eX-
pect to elect Democrat under these
circumstances, but they can select Re-
publican who is IN harmony with the IN
tereSts of the Northwest, who is clear
cut and who lives near 10 the hearts of
the people. Such a one is not Pierce,
for he is i'll sympathy with the most
radical features of the Mckinley bill.
He is in sympathy with the force bill,
and is plant tool of the monopolies.
In order to prove that he is a resident
and taxpayer of North Dakota, over his
own Signature he shows that he pays
SAG per annum tax on bank stock, and
that is all of the property he has in The
state, except house purchased of his
partner i'll the Church treasury deal
since he became senator. Snch one is
not Bale for as attorney of the North
ern Pacific railroad he Will be distrusted
by the people, as all corporation attor-
neyS are at this time. Such one is
not Judge Francis, for he is now the
local attorney of the Northern Pacific at
Bismarck. and Alexander Hughes has
recently vacated that position. Such
one is not Gen. Harrison Allen, for he
Is looked upon as a man without all Oc-
cupation and without home. He is
professional politician and the last of
the carpetbaggers, for whom the people
have no use. Such one is not H. G.
Hansbrongh. His vote is recorded for
the Mckinley bill. His voice has
been raised for any Republican infamy.
Such one is hot Gov. Miller, for he
was The leading speaker during the re-
cent canvass for McKinieyism and kim
dred outrages. He aspires to lead the
Farmers Alliance, but the devil would
be as much in place leading a Sunday
school class as he would he in leading a
movement for tariff reform, in view of
the record he has made. Who the man
is, or should be, is matter still in en-
bryo, but wherever you find a little
knot of laboring men gathered together
you will find them discussing McKln-
leyism. The workingmen and farmers
everywhere are against that infamy,
and you hear it discussed i'll the stores
and in every public place. The GLOBE
has already sounded the keynote for
the Democrats of North Dakota, and
the wisdom of its advice to defeat the
old hacks, and unite on clean
Republican holding low tariff views,
is recognized by every one.
The next point of interest will be the
speakership of the North Dakota house.
Hon. j. G. Gill, whose fitness for the
place cannot be questioned, is candi-
date. Of course, it will come to the
valley, and why not to Gill, one of the
largest farmers in the state outside of
the Grandlns and Dalrymples-one in
man prominently identified with the
Alliance on whom they and the Dem
Ocrats and sufficient number of the
RepebllcanS can unite to promise
success. and they see that it would be
an opportunity wasted-an opportunity
to defeat one of the old line monopo
sympathizers, and elect.one who is anu
has been i'll sympathy with them.
