Fargo Forum: The people Of the
State have become convinced that they
should have some voice in the se-
lection of candidates for public Office as
in their election. Years ago the candi-
dates were generally named by a coterie
of politicians. Later came men named
by the newspapers, and advocated by
these organs until the people believed
that the salvation of party and State de-
pended upon their selection and election.
After sober reflection the voters doubted
if the newspapers had properly presented
the facts. The people should be heard
through tho public press, or they will be
felt at the election time when the ballots
are counted. No balldozing will go this
year. The voters will see that the eau
cuses are attended, and the best possible
done for State and party instead of for
individuals and cliques. The sooner
some people realize this the better it will
be for them.
