Now that the smoke of battle has
cleared away, the republican party is
able to take account of the action and
to calmly consider the results OF the
same.
That the disruptionists leaders were
signally defeated is only what could be
based upon false issues and misrepre-
sensations. That the defeat was as
sweeping as it was is something of a
surprise, when the facts in the case
are considered. 1t must be remem-
bered that for two years at least the
disruptionists have been planning the
present campaign. They have had a
political machine at work during all
that time. They have conducted
campaign in which the cloven foot of
the leaders has been hidden by the
popular cry of reform.
And this last it must be remembered
is the key to popularity of any ISSUE
The leaders insinuated that the state
was corrupt and the officials grafters
of the coarsest sort. They did not
specify the particulars, but from these
insinuations left the people to make
their own differences. 1t was a scheme
worthier higher and a nobler pur-
pose, for the people who as a rule are
ready to be fair and honest. is just
as harsh in its judgment against vice
and graft. They therefore became
prejudiced in favor of the demand for
reform, not knowing the character of
the men who were hiding behind it.
When the character of the reform
leaders were exposed they were so
corrupt that it could hardly be ex-
pected that the public could believe
the truth. 1t We're as though a man
who had been church pillar had
been caught leading a double life.
The truth of these things will be-
come stronger with time for the evil
dence will become more convincing as
it is studied and absorbed. AS this,
is done the people who were honestly
led to accept false doctrine and
hypocrtical issue by the leaders who
have been unmasked, will see the truth
as it is and the honesty which prompt
ed them to seek to rectify what they
believed to be wrong, will make
them just as firm in sustaining the
true principles of the republican party
when once they have learned the truth.
Nor will they be sacrificing anything
in SO doing, for they were merely mis-
led by men who were in position to
know the truth, and who betrayed the
public confidence to accomplish their
own evil purpose. There is no sur
render of principle in deserving such
leadership. nor is there any dishonor
in being deceived.
The people of the state have regis
tered their confidence in the republi-
can party and its principles. This
means that the people rule and their
word becomes the supreme law of the
land

GETTING AFTER THE FRAUDS.

The report of pure food commits
sioner Ladd for last year has just
been made public, and contains some
decidedly interesting matter. not the
least of which is the severe arraign-
ment OF what are popularity known
as box car merchants.
Among other things he shows that
this class of dealers. who only make
one sale in place and do not attempt
to depend on future business from the
same customer. sell in nearly every
instance not only adulterated goods,
but that those which are not SO adul-
terated are of the very poorest quality.
The quality of goods handled was
SO low that the vigorous prosecution
of the splendid pure food law of the
state has driven many of them out Of
business. The recent disclosures of
the filthy condition in which the
canned meat products are handled in
the manufacturing has called the at
tention Of the public to the need Of
careful selecting the goods of this
character which are purchased for,
consumption.
1t has been well known business
fact for years that in the handling Of
staple groceries and food products
there has been but little margin for
the retailer. To undersell them on the
same quality Of goods has been Inn
possible. for they have been able to
buy just as cheap as the largest mer-
chant in the country. The only way to
undersell them has been to handle
cheaper goods Of the same name and
claim they we're the same quality. This
has been the policy of the bog car
merchant. and to q great extent the
policy Of the catalogue supply houses.

A PIOUS FRAUD.

The Grand Forks Herald. at the
close of the primary campaign, piously
and with an abundance of hypocritical
tears, deplores the Campaign Of
SANDER" that it claims has been in
augurated against leaders of the So
called insurgent" movement Verify,
this depreciation of an exposure of the
hollow shams and pretenses of the in
surgent leaders comes with exceed
ing poor grace from the Herald
Since the campaign was inaugurated
in the state several months ago, the
Herald has neglected no opportunity
to attack every public man in the
state who is allied with the present
administration. 1t has had a paid
correspondent in two-thirds of the
counties of the state, whose purpose
has been to traduce misrepresent and
vilify every leader allied with the re-
publican organization in the state.
The Herald deplores the sending of
"slanderous circulars" and yet it has
openly and privately connived at and
inspired the sending of slanderous
matter directed against leaders of
the republican party in the state. 1t
has no knowledge of the truth of the
matter the insurgents have been
sending to every voter, and yet it has
been party to the distribution Of the
"Looting of Alaska" far and wide.
If there has been a Campaign of
SANDER" surely the Herald has set the
pace. When its correspondent has
been caught in a brazen untruth, the
Herald has SIMULTANEOUSLY declared
that the matter was of little import
ance. All through the campaign, the
telling of untruths in the Herald has
been. apparently matter of little i'm
portance with the editorial department
of that paper. When eX-Congressman
Spalding and Ex-Governor Devine have
been called upon to explain practices
entirely at variance with their pre-
lenses as "reformers" the Herald has
shouted that they were not candidates
for Office But it has not hesitated to at
tack Mckenzie and Hansbrough and
every other leader in the state, ir-
respective of his candidacy for Office
The Heralds pious protestations
against the telling of truth regarding
the insurgent leaders is strangely at
variance with it's represensible prac-
tees all through the campaign. 1t has
become necessary to inform the peo-
pie regarding the calibre of the men at
the head and front of the insurgent
movement in this state only because
of their pretenses to political purity
and fitness which is not borne out by
the facts.-Bismarck Tribune.

the head of the state ticket, and as Il
result he will be renominated at
jamestown and reelected in Novem-
Der, and not all the lurid frothings
of all the disgruntled, grating place
hunters this side of Gehenna can in
anywise prevent or modify that result.
The loyal republicans Of North Da-
kCta have met the misguided followers
of the traitorous disruptionists in fair
fight at the primary polls and have
won a complete and decisive victory
over them. and no one but a mailman
or a hopeless idiot will suppose that
one iota of the results of that victory
will be surrendered in the state con-
vention or at the polls.

WASHINGTON'S COMMERCIAL AM.
BITION.

People who go to Washington are al
ways impressed by the beauty and
culture of the city, says the Memphis
Commercial Appeal. Washington blends
hamoniously in all its outward aspects
the best notions of great political
capital. 1t is great educational
center and in its universities, colleges,
schools, monuments. parks and great
public buildings it is suggestive of the
higher, nobler phases of our civiliza-
ton. The visitor in Washington thinks
only of the greatness of the Republic,
its majesty and dignity, it's mighty his
tory and its inspiring future. The
sordid affairs of this world do not
appear to belong there. Commercial
ism seems strangely out of place, ex-
cept the volume and quality of bust
ness essential to the maintenance of
the population of the city.
But whatever the visitor may think,
Washington is quite American. The
faint of commercial ambition seems to
run in the Washington blood just as it
does in the blood of other peoples.
1t is true the Washington native lacks
what Westerners or New Workers.
would call enterprise. but the desire
for skyscrapers, great factories with
smoking chimneys, a great tin bucket
brigade together with the occasional
turbulence of strikes and other an
noyances, exists in Washington Just
like it does in Houston.
Washington is perfectly willing to
develop as commercial city," says the
Star There has never been any dis
position in Washington to shrink from
success as a city of trade. A some
what mistaken notion has prevailed on
this score in some quarters. Because
the capital has been kept somewhat out
of line of development, as heavy man
ufacturing center. in order that 1t
might grow up In a civic attractive
ness without marring features, the
notion has spread that the people of
the District are backward about ac-
ceptfng business opportunities and that
they prefer that Washington should
be essentially a city of residences.
Nothing is further from the fact. The
truth is that the business men of the
District are as alert for chances to
extend their various lines as are those
Of any other city. The exceptionally
stable prosperity Of the community
attests to the enterprise of the mer-
chants. They are conservative, to be
sure, but their conservatism is an ele-
ment of success and advancement
Washington does not boom suddenly
and then slip back into torpor. It

and not by fits and starts, and con-
stantly attracting to It men of means
