Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1898-04-01

In the announcement of the Winship
candidacy which was t%elegraphed to the
twin city papers the following paragraph
appears:
During the last campaign, Mr.. Win
ship, both by means of his personal in
fuence, and through the columns of
his paper, strongly opposed the relec-
ton of Senator H~ansbrough, and he
has steadily and persistently continued
his criticism Of that gentleman's course.
Those who watch political events in
North Dakota will not fail to recall the
fact that Senator Hansbrough was
reelected unanimously, Mr. Winship's
persistent personal and editorial opposi-
ton to the contrary Notwithstanding
Winship's role is that of a destroyer.
John Miller was a fairly good governor,
but Winship's friendship buried him.
politically and he left the state broken
hearted. Winship was also sponsor for
Roger Allin, and where is Roger nowY
If it is Winship's purpose to immediate
himself upon the gubernatorial altar and

fore-well, perhaps the people can stand
it one term.

The people of the city of Bismarck
want officials who will give an economi-
cal administration of city affairs. The
indebtedness of the city has for a num-
Der of years been above the limit al
lowed by law and warrants could not be
issued and until the system Of licenses
enforced by Mayor Patterson went into
force, it was necessary for the city to
issue certificates Of indebtedness. which
being worth only so cents on the dollar
necessitated the city issuing a certifi.
cate of 81 for every 81 expended. by the
city 80 that an official who was paid $50
a month received a certificate for 800,
which only benefited the official $50,
but is still an outstanding debt against
the city for 800. If the issuing of Ger.
~tificates had continued for at least two
years the certificates would not be.
worth 20 cents on the dollar, and in.
fact, it is doubtfulif purchasers would.

The latest reports from Washington
indicate that congress is not disposed to
wait much longer for action in the
Cuban matter. The filing of the report
of the destruction of the Maine, which
is shown to have been an act of treachery
on the part of Spaniards, if not in so
many words at least as a moral GER
tainty, has ip1amed the war sentiment
of the country, and it will not be posi-
BILE much longer to hold congress in
check. The recent reports of the horri-
BILE conditions among the helpless re-
concentrates in Cuba, coupled with the
loss of the Maine, makes a powerful in
centive to the patriotic spirit of the
country to demand that congress step
in and stop the horrors, allowing Spain
to like or not the action of the United
States, as it may please. The week will
hardly pass without a sensational
denouement of the Spanish crisis.
