Politics and Politicians


) Random Shots at Politics Over the State (
JUNE is almost here with its primary
election.
~
Now that the Minot convention Is over
the victors will be long on harmony
talk.
**#
Monday of mex week, May 25th., Is
the last day for the filing of petitions of
candidates for county and legislative
office.
*.#
The Fargo Forum has the bad taste
to suggest that the Republican will this
week perhaps be able to correct its
report of the Minot convention.
*
Since the political atmosphere has
cleared the Sarles Advocate finds time
to declare itself editorially as opposed
to compulsory vaccination of children
attending public schools.
*
Langdon people had both ears to the
ground last Thursday evening one to
hear from the republican convention at
Minot and the other to get the result of
the fight between Cans and Unholz for
the light weight championship.
~
The primary election is purely a party
affair in which each political party
selects its candidates and a republican
has no more right to vote a democratic
primary ballot than a democrat has to
vote a republican primary ballot.
**#
There appears to be a growing op-
position to Supt. Stockwell among the
women voters, because he does not favor
women for county superintendent and
his opinion that no one in the state
could fill the state librarians office.
~
One of the provisions of the new
primary law is that each candidate shall
have his name at the head of the list for
that particular office an equal number
of times, as it is generally conceded that
the name at the top is more liable to be
voted than any other. This will give
the county auditors something to think
about also.
y: *
The office of public administrator
has a republican candidate for nomina-
ton at the primaries in Adam Reid,
deputy county auditor during the past
two years. The present incumbent.
Finlay Macdonald, who has filed the
office since it vas created four years age
being a candidate for the county Judge
ship the outlook is that Mr.. Reid will
have the field to himself at the election
in June.

of public instruction, has succeeded in

is no branch of the state organization
which he does not feel competent to
direct and a good story is told of his
habit of offering advice. Shortly after
Governor Burke had taken charge of his
office in Bismarck a member of the
Legislature noticed MIR. Stockwell leav-
ing the executive office. Entering the
office the lawmaker asked the governor
if Mr.. Stockwell vas satisfied with the
arrangements. Oh yes" responded the
governor, sin fact there are a few of the
minor details of the office which Mr..
Stockwell will allow me to manage
The story is vouched for as true and the
governor will not deny the accusation.
