quire. No new man could be
elected and sent to Washington
that could in any way fill his
place with any chance of accom-
plishing anything. He is fam
iliar with all the important legis-
lation that has come before con-
gress in recent years and with
the many grave questions COM
ing up before that body we re-
quire somebody there who un-
derstands them and h as prestige
enough to do something for US.
Mr.. Hansbrough is IN position
to do this and the Courier be-
lieves the best interests Of the
state will be best subserved by
his reelection by the next legis-
lature. He now occupies the
very best places that can be had
with respect to committees, and
has considerable prestige in the
senate. He holds the chairman
ship of the committee on public
lands-a very importa MT place.
This position he was six years in
getting and it took nine years of
his time before he got on that
committee. He is also a mem
ber of the committee on agri-
culture, which has jurisdiction
of matters that are of great inter-
est to our agricultural people.
Now this prestige does not
belong to the senator person
ally but is an asset of the state
and should not be deprecated or
wiped out by sending an entirely
new man to Washington, simply
to crafty the desire Of a few
politicians who have failed to Sc
cure an Office which they sought
or to crafty the ambition of a
few who seek appointment in
the future. These are conditions
that confront every public man
who has appointments to make
aud he will be opposed by the
unsuccessful one every time.
Under existing conditions and
the excellent record made by
Mr.. Hansbrough the safest and
best thing to do is to re-ele ct
him.

There has been a great deal of
discussion recently in the twin
city papers in regard to the cleo
tion of United States senator
to succeed Hon. H. G. Hans
brough, our present efficient
senator, and a big crowd of our
leading politicians recently met
at st. Paul and kindly fixed up a
ticket for US and in addition, SO
the twin city press says decided
on Judge Cowan as candidate
to down Senator Hansbrough
Now this is all very nice for our
people and would undoubtedly
save them a great many head
aches usually brought on by
worrying over affairs political,
but the voters of North Dakota
would rather enjoy these little
ailments in order to have some
thing to say about these affairs
themselves, so that while we
have all the confidence in the
world in the ability Of these
smooth political leaders to cut a
large figure in the coming con-
vention, we feel as if the rank and
file will in a measure upset some
of these we'll laid plans at the
proper time, especially when it
somes down to the senatorship.

PAINTING CONTRACT
IS CAUSING TROUBLE
Union Labor Men UP in Arms Over
Frank & Son Getting High School
Job-Central Labor Union to Act.

The indications are that there Will
be repetition of the friction that en-
sued over the painting of the park
fountain by non-union labor.
on Wednesday night, school Directors
yannan and Evans, of the school board
building committee awarded, from a
number of bids, the contract for paint
ing at the high school to Fl. Frank &
SON. Their bid was considerably lower.
Frank e. Son do not employ union men
and the unions are consequently up
in arms against the disposition of the
contract.
The strong united labor sentiment
that is in Carbondale is manifesting It
self and the more radical are in favor
Of taking some action to retrive what
they deem an insult to united labor
on the part of the directors who gave
out.~the contract The directors take
the stand that it was their duty to give
the contract to the lowest bidder. but
the union men claim that they should
have been given consideration.
A meeting of the Central Labor union
will be held Sunday at which some
action will probably be taken.
