The Call is not a democratic paper in
any sense of the word. but is bound to
speak the truth about the democratic
ticket or remain silent. The ticket is
composed of the cleanest, most able and
honorable set of men that have been
assembled on a state ticket in the state
for a number of years. For governor,
John Burke of Devils Lake. is a man
whose integrity is above %reproach. and
ability unquestioned. He is a man.
who, if elected. would be the peoples
governor in every sense of the word.
and nothing could swerve him from
that purpose The publisher of this
paper knows John Burke personally
knew him when 1t was fashionable in
North Dakota to take advantage of PEG.
pie, but it is doubtful if that person
lives, who can accuse Mr.. Burke of eve
m~istreating him or her, either as an at,
torney or citizen. He has ability Of the
right kind-not the g%rasping, avari
cious kind, but the kind that makes the
world better. The Call would be glad
to see Mr. Burke succeed, because il
feels that the people of North Dakota
would have the very best administra
ton he Is capable of giving. Crysta

The Cavalier Co. Immigration as
ISOLATION has this week issued a finely
illustrated booklet of twenty-four pages
which briefly deals with this county
historically; tells what some of its best
known farmers have done since coming
here: gives valuable statistics as to
climate and rainfall: the county's towns
and cities: churches, schools, fraterni-
ties, etc. All of these featurrs are dealt
with in a way that adher strictly to facts
and gives information that will tell the
residents of the older states in the east
what we have and what they are sure to
find when they come here. That Is the
purpose for which it has been gotten
out. If any of our readers feel that
they can aid in its proper circulation
where good results will be secured they
should help the good work along by
corresponding with any of our Langdon
real estate dealers, all of whom are
members of the Cavalier Co. Immigra-
ton association.

The Grand Forks Herald gives the
following opinion of the platform framed
up at Minot by the democrats:
The platform, in so far as it relates
to the affairs of North Dakota, with a
possible exception, is simply an expires
sion of the views Of good citizens all
over the state. 1t does not differ
materially from the platform adopted
the preceding day by the republicans
of Iowa, after proper allowance is made
for difference in local conditions. It is
such a platform as could have been
adopted by the republican convention
of North Dakota with great satisfaction
to the rank and tile. On national mat
tiers, and particularly with reference to
the nomination of a candidate for the
presidency, the convention undoubtedly
voiced the sentiment of the North Da-
kota democrats in recommending the
nomination of Bryan

THE FARMERS AND The TARIFF.

The farmers can hardly approve the
republican standpat program, when
they lind the price of wheat, oats, corn
and cotton declining and the cost of all
they buy rapidly advancing. Where
does the boaSted protection to agricul-
ture come in under the present protec-
tive tariff and how are the farmers
protected. although the tariff law pro
vides that - cents a huShel on wheat
and 10 cents a bushel on oats be collect
ed on imports: The price of wheat is
now lower than it has been for ten years
OF since the present tariff law was enact
ed in August 1897.
Those farmers Who are republicans,
should demand of their %'standpat lead
ers q fair deal, and if the agricultural
machinery trust. the barbed wire com
bine, the lumber association and the
clothing trusts, are to still be protected
by the tariff in charging exorbitant
prices for their products, that some
A44Ciico VI IdtSiiS Tx tiiSC u SiSui
and keeping them stable should offset
trust high prices.
The fact is. however, that no tariff
can protect the farmer on his products
of which the surplus must be solo
abroad, as the price paid by the foreign
ers for that surplus fixes the price here
The only relief the farmer can receive i.
to be able to buy in the cheapest market
and this he can never do as long as the
trusts, that control all he buys, are pro
tected by the tariff from competition
1t is plain therefore that the farmer
who votes for a republican congressman
and for republican candidates for the
legislature. who in turn will elect re
publican senators, is voting to continue
the protection to the trusts and for higf
prices, with no protection to help the
price of his own products.
