Both Wei Qualified

Lidgerwood Broadaxe: Two of the
boys whom the writer met during the
1905 session Of the legislature are an
nounced candidates for state Office.
One Of them is Carl o. Jorgenson. at
present deputy state auditor. who
wants to be state auditor, Ii he can
get nominated and elected on the re-
publican ticket; the other is o. J. OIL
son, who was bill clerk of the senate
In that session, who also wants to be
state auditor. 1t is hard choice for
the Broadaxe man, for he knows them
both to be honest and conscientious
workers. Jorgenson did some very
careful and excellent work on engross.
Ing bills and Andrews remembers
that, with gratitude, as an instance Of
good work in mass of stuff that was
not so commendable. Another thing
Jorgenson is Minor boy, and really
has some call for support from tilis
END OF the state. Mr.. Olson, as bill
clerk was exceedingly painstaldng and
efflcient. He had six years OF expert
ence back OF him, as auditor of Cass
county, and he knew his business. II
either man gets the office 1t will be
well filed and no mistake.

Forks Times has "discovered' that
Senator Little is being coached by the
International Harvester trust for the
purpose of defeating Senator Hans
brough. The Times, however, doesn't
deign to inform wondering nation
how it knows whereof it asserts. It
is hilariously amusing shifts and
twists and turns that are bling made
by some Of the candidates for the pur.
pose of bamboozling "the dear peo-
ple.' In the meantime the voters Of
the Missouri Slope will almost unani-
mously support Senator Little for the
federal senate, because they know he's
square and able, because they know
that such yarns as that of the Times
are false, and because they believe
that for once since statehood the Mis-
souri, Slope ought to have one OF its
sons in congress.
