WHILE the leading republican papers
of the country are saying nice things
about Thomas Platt, recently elected U. S.
senator in New York with little effort on
his part and with practically no opposi-
tion from republicans in the Legislature,
the Grand Forks Herald berates him, to-
gether with Senators Quay and Cullom,
as machine politician. But it occurs
to the unbiased reader that possibly the
republicans of the great states of New
York, Pennsylvania and Illinois the
constituents of the men named ARE a,
least as pure IN their motives and as in.
telligent and discriminating in Their
choice of leaders as the good Mr.. Win
ship and his followers in this state. He
talks ghbly of machine politics. Wha,
is 1t but the machine--that is, a strong
political organization--that wins elec,
tions7 Would the republican organiza
tion In North Dakota have been less q
machine had George Winship. Roger AL
lin, H. M. Creel (before he fopped), E
Smith Peterson, Arne P. Haugen ct hoe
genus omne been the machinists and
engineers? Editor Winship seems to forge,
that the percentage of illiteracy is low il
this state when ne attempts to make his
readers believe that the republican organ
ization is more machine-like in its meth
ods now than it was when Alln and Win
ship had charge of the oil can and the
monkey wrench.

EDITOR W1HsHIP, In his Herald, falls
on the neck Of Secretary of State Falley
and wceps, because the latter. IN his
Globe, has kind words for Senator Hans
brough. George accuses Fred of ingrati-
tude because the former favored the lat
ter and the other successful Ca ndidates at
Grand Forks. As matter of fact, Win.
ship wanted Allin and men of that stamp,
whom he had controlled and whom he
would control. Briggs, Falley, Fancher
and Nichols were neither Roger Allins,
Smith Petersons nor Arne P. Haugans,
and therefore not Winship's ideals. His
support of Briggs was prompted by jeal-
ousy of Bulge. He favored Briggs not that
he liked him more, but that he liked
Bulge less. And it is well-known fact
that the republican votes lost to the state
ticket in Grand Forks county were lost
by the unfair and contemplate methods
pursued by Wlnship in his treatment of
Bulge, man as popular as Winship Is
unpopular in Grand Forks county.

JAMES CURR1E GILL, of Cass county,
one of the best and one of the best
known men in the state, died suddenly
of heart-disease in Bismarck last Satur-
day evening. Mr.. Gill was Union SOL
dier IN the slaveholders' war. He was a
member of the lower house of the state
legislature of 1891, and again in 1895,
when he was chosen speaker. At the
time of his death he was secretary of the
state senate, and he was attending to the
duties of his position but few hours be-
fore he was stricken down. The inter-
nent took place at his home in Cass
county last Tuesday. The kind-hearted
and pleasant-faced old soldier will be SIM
cerely mourned throughout the length
and breadth of the state.
