malck, and some of the officials Of the
state hospital for the insane. Charles
L. Mitchell, the postmaster, is also re-
garded as a machine man, and they
have handled the county for Mckenzie.
There is a revolt on. It is locals in
character, and the success Of the. revo-
luton would not necessarily mean an
insurgent delegation to the state con-
vention. It is APT to, however, as
things are shaping themselves. Knauf
made enemies when he disposessed Bert
Proctor, former deputy bank examiner,
and got his place for Pool, who is I'M
popular locally and not regarded as a
Jamestown man: This, however, is only
an incident, and the general complaint
is that the leaders have been running
the county for personal ends There IS
also a good deal Of feeling over the
way positions in the insane hospital
have been given out as political favors.
The hospital, it is freely claimed, is run
in the interests Of the local machine
leaders, and not as a state institution
should be conducted.
In the opposition ranks are Mayor J.
H. Severn, S. r. Ellsworth, a local at
torney; DR.. A. W. Guest, former ply

be. The North Dakota contest is just
the sort Of fight he likes.

Over in Barnes county the outlook ia
vors the insurgents. The county was
formerly populist in its affliation, and
while the former populists have nearly
all gone back to the republican party,
they are still independent in spirit and
have no use for machines. Valley City
people are of the opinion that it will not
be at all hard to elect delegation of
Independents at the primary. Former
Governor White, who lives in Valley
City, is in sympathy with the insurg.
ents. State Senator Young is claimed
by the machine forces.

Insurgent leaders are hoping to get
some outside assistance in their fight
next year. The speakers they want
most are La Toilette of Wisconsin and
Knute Nelson Of Minnesota. Nelson s
antipathy to Mckenzie and Hansbrough
are well known in the state, and the
When he accompanied Roosevelt thru
the state in 1900 it is claimed that he
drew more attention than the candi-
date. He expressed himself in Grand
Forks once in the most positive fash
ion, when asked to make some speeches
for the ticket in North Dakota. He
blurted out before the assemblage that
he would not talk in state that was
run by Mckenzie. The insurgents have
some hope of bringing him in to talk
for their cause, but those who know the
senator do not have any idea that he
will mix in the affairs Of republicans
