Frand Forks N. D., Feb. 1S.-There was.
some talk a short time ago to the effect
that the democrats were perfecting deal +.
with George B. Winship of the Grand
Forks Herald, in which they were to stay
out Of the next campaign insofar as the
nomination for governor was concerned.
This ru1nor had it that the democrats were
to support Winship for governor.
There IS no truth to the report and ID
can be said, with almost as much GER
tainty that Mr.. Winship will not try for
the nomination for governor on any ticket.
The democrats will nominate a full set
of good candidates. but there is going to :
be a struggle between the two factions OF
the party in this state before it is done.
Steve Brynjolfson, secretary Of the state
democratic central committee, is at the
head of the faction that is now in control, 4
but the old line Cleveland faction is not
going, to leave him there without fight.
This fact was brought out by the news /,
that III. d. ALERT and Fred McLain Of
Langdon, and G. J. Murphy of this city.
have just returned from trip to eastern
points. While in the east they met Tracy
Bangs by appointment, and the business
in hand was politics.
These men are old lii,e democrats, and
they are working cleverly for the control
Of the state. for they confident the
democrats will win in the next national
campaign, and want the organization when.
Bangs Talked Of for Governor.
If they win. Tracy Bangs may be mons
mated for governor. but he refuses to
speak in regard to it, Mr.. Thompson Of
Cando is also being spoken of. He would
| be acceptable to both factions Of tina
party.
| Gubernatorial candidates on the demos
cratic side are not plentiful. but several
are quietly working their wires for Mons
| nations.
| From Cavalier county comes news that
Judge Clearly, an old line democrat, is be-
| ing groomed for the race against Judge
| Kneeshaw for the judgeship of the sew
enth judicial district. Cleary is a bust
ness partner of H. D. ALERT Of Langdon,
and the meeting in the east had something's
to do with this candidacy. Mr.. ALERT OF
Langdon is being mentioned for places
of some kind, also J. B. Eaton of Fargo,
Parker at the national convention Theirs
are many democrats in the state who think
| that Eaton has one or two more guesses
coming.
Hearst Acquiring Strength.
There is growing sentiment favorable
to w. r. Hearst of New York. M. r,
Murphy, a reformed republican, says he is
inclined to favor Hearst. The present or
ganizaton is also said to be favorable to
! the New Yorker.
! If the Cleveland faction secures control,
Parker may get the state delegation, but
/ this seems improbable.

INDIANS COMPLAIN
Logging Composites, They Assert,
Won't Give Them Anything to Do.

:
. CASS LAKE, >MINN.--Word comes from Ball
Club that the Indians living in that vicinity
have been holding squaw dance and council
1T which several matters which they deemed i'm
portant were, considered. When a council is
held the Indians recite all their imaginary and
real wrongs, and one of the results Of the dance
has been a COMPLAINT to the Indian agent at
Onigum. the Indians asserting that they have
been sighted by the lumber companies which
have been cutting the timber disposed of at the
sales held in December. -. 49,, ~
Under the rules to regulate the cutting OF the
pine Indian labor to be given preference
by the companies, in so far as practicable. The
Indians at Ball Club say. that none Of their
number has been given employment by the Stand
ard company, which has large amount Of the
timber in that vicinity. ~" !:
Mr.. Nugent, superintendent of logging for the
STANDARD St company, said: This complaint Of
the Indians is wholly without foundation. But
two Indians have made application for work with
our company, and in both instances they were
given jobs. We desire to live strictly up to
the rules. and we will give employment to In
dams. as far as 1t is possible to do So"
1t is understood that similar complaints have
been made by other Indians against other lumber
companies but there is undoubtedly no founda-
ton for them.
