That divorce law introduced by Senat.
or Lahore was passed by the senate
without dissenting vote, and is expect
ed to pass the house without trouble. It.
makes a years residence necessary to
commence action. The second bill
strikes at an evil which in some cases
was even greater wrong than the short
residence. At present when the defend
ant lives out OF the state. service is made
by publication of summons in news
paper. Such summons does not specify
anything in particular except that the
title of the case is mentioned and notice
is given that a complaint has been filed
in the clerk of courts Office. The new
law provides that in all possible cases
personal service be made on the defend
ant. 1t has occurred frequently in our
courts under the present law, that the
other party interested in divorce actions,
has not known of the existence of such
action until after Judgment; the wrong of

That constitutional amendment which
as we pointed out before election, car
red four distinct and important PROPOSE.
tlons, to-wit: that only full citizens can
vote; that paupers. insane and persons
convicted of felony should not vote; that
an educational test shall be made for
voters; that penalties may be prescribed
Tor .negecting to vote; may be thrown
out Tor the reason that more than one
SUBJECT is embraced in the amendment.
AS we commented before election, few
men, even after study, could answer all
these different propositions by one YES
or one no, and yet there was no other
way. We have not the least doubt in
our own mind that large proportion of
the votes cast on this amendment were
the merest guess work, and that under
the full citizenship clause, and under the
educational clause, hundreds of voters
voted to disfranchise themselves lust as
they did in Minnesota two years ago on
a full citizenship amendment to the con-
stitution oftllat state which carried and
disfranchised thousands of former voters.
Ii our amendment goes in the courts,
the educational test will be matter of
considerable interest and discussion in
this term of legislature.

The Pioneer Express.
HON. M. N. JOHNSON.

Hon. M. N. Johnson is seeking cleo
ton as U. S. Senator. He has served
for several years as congressman and
his history there is matter ofpublic re-
cord and his character and ability under
his present candidacy are properly mat
tiers of public discussion.
Mr.. Johnson, is man in many ways
of superior talent and qualities. Educa-
tionally, he is far above the average and
in the discussion of public questions he
is one Of the best. His speech on the
silver question two years age, in our op-
inion was in every way equal and in
some respects superior to that of Sena-
tor Sherlnan's on the same subject de-
livered week or two after that of Mr..
Johnson's.
Mr.. Johnson is clean man. Politic-
ally and personally no taint of corrup-
ton has ever been breathed against him,
and in all this we admire and respect the
man both as an individual and states
man.
On the other hand Mr.. Johnson has
his faults. Some of these faults are so
well known, and have been so often the
subjects of newspaper comment that we
need only refer to them. Mr.. Johnson's
personal opinion of himself seems to be
at least as great as that of his most full
some adherents. He is said to have
even refused to pay his assessments to
the state committee in one campaign
on the ground that he was necessity to
the party.
Mr.. Johnson, or his friends for him
claim political preferment and reced-
ence because he is of Norwegian de-
F.. cent. We saw and heard one of Mr..
Johnson's Norwegian friends in state
convention at Grand Forks, stand on
the floor and shake his fist in the faces Of
the republican delegates there, and de-
clare, that he (the speaker) and the 9TH
Norwegian delegates would bolt the
convention and its nominees if Mr..
Johnson was not nominated. and in the
face of this threat, the convention nomi-
mated Mr.. Johnson. Mr.. Johnson is
neither better nor worse for his Norweg-
ian blood. That fact, if he is a true
American, should not add or detract an
atom from his qualities as a candidate,
but if he is Norwegian than it makes
great deal of difference. 1t is not Nor
wegians but Americans that we want for
representatives in congress. And just
here, we want to say, that any opposi-
ton to Mr.. Johnson on account Of race,
is based on these grounds. When Mr..
Johnson or his friends ask every Nor
wegian legislator to vote for Mr. John,

FOR SENATOR, J. LaMouRE.

We have previously stated that while
we have no doubt that no man whose
name is mentioned as possible U. S.
senator could do North Dakota better
service than Hon. Judson LaMoure Of
this county, yet we thought it improb.
able if he would be personally an active
candidate for that position, though
doubtless in common with other men
he would be pleased at the preferment
& Mr.. LaMoure's qualifications are many.
His abilities are unquestionable. No
man in the state has greater personal
power or is a stronger factor in political
circles. And we believe no man can
hold the hig.l political position Of Mr..
LaMoure unless he has personal ability

and honesty back of it.

ana honesty Dack OF II.
For in spite of the popular notions on
this subject, neither fool or knave
ever attains high place in politics and
retains it for any length of time. Occas-
sionally one or the other or even both
achieves preferment, but they can't fool
people all the time.
Since the early days ofterritorial exist
ence Mr.. LaMoure has been in full view
of the people. Enemies have assailed
him from every conceivable standpoint
and still Mr.. LaMoure stands unconvict-
ed of one mean or dishonest act, politi-
cal or otherwise. Mistakes he has made
and which he has manfully acknow-
ledged, but his mark is on almost every
statute in our code, and stand there as
vindication of his purposes. And yet
there are some newspapers and men in
this and the adjoining state, whose own
souls are so small and whose own mo-
tives are so mean and sordid, that while
they can and do rail for years and months
at some great wrong to morality, as
though they were patterns of virtue, yet
turn their railing and meanness at man
who has the manllness and masterfulness
to introduce and have passed a bill to
correct the wrong they have been whin-
ing about. Why, among some OF these
people, if Mr.. LaMoure sleeps, he has
some deep laid scheme to stop the mo-
ton of the earth. If Mr.. LaMoure yawns
as he wakes, it is wired abroad that the
earth is in danger of being engulfed; if
he spits over his right shoulder look out
for earthquakes; if over the left. then
water spouts and cyclones are in the air.
And there are lot of lesser folk who
without better authority than such, be-
lieve with all their little hearts that Jud
LaMoure is the great "bogey-man" of
North Dakota. And we have less pa
tience with these lesser fools than the
others, for the others are knaves, and we
always did prefer knave to fool.
When it comes to the welfare of this
state, on all questions of morality, tem-
perance and virtue, Mr.. LaMoure's re-
cord is a public record; it is on the re-
cords of most of the territorial legisla-
lures; it on every journal of every senate
since statehood, and no man who is
manly enough to look squarely at that
record would be mean enough to sneer
and villify the motives that induced Mr..
LaMoure to introduce and pass the di-
vofce bill.
And if it should be, that Mr.. LaMoure
should be the choice among the many
candidates for United States senator, we
believe his record in Washington would
show him to be as powerful, as ener-
getiic, as honest, as right on all questions
involving the nation, the state and his
party as does his record in North Dakota.
Mr.. LaMoure is a man who does and
acts. He don't get behind anybody else.
He makes up his mind and goes ahead.
He is the kind of business man that
would look after North Dakota, its peo-
| pie and its interests in Washington, and
the same characteristics that make him a
man of power i'll Bismarck would give
him similar position at Washington.
And that is why We would like to see
Mr.. LaMoure nominated as U. S. senator.
