The Secretary of State and the At
torney General have taken up the old
z gag, the Standard Oil prosecution. This
lis done to cover up their delinquences in
other matters of more vital Importance
than driving the Standard Oil, with its
hundred delivery stations out of the
state. If they should succeed in over
coming the octopus and that company
was forced to cease doing business at
once there would be an oil famine at
once and for some time to come which
would put the lamps and the gasoline
engines out of business. No doubt the
Standary Oil interests are trembling
since Attorney General McCue, with his
record of prosecutions so successfully
carried out, has decided that it must 90.
We would suggest that he arrange so
that only a portion of the oil delivery
stations be %enjoined at a time, that the
independent companies may have time
to locate before a new lot are ordered
out of business. just now the people
want a little more attention paid to
enforcement of other laws, coal rate,
mileage book and prohibition laws.
These cases might be carried on at the
same time

WHY NOT REVISE?

The Minnesota republican state con-
vention adopted a platform In which it
declares: "We reaffirm the principle of
protection of American labor and in
dustries, but we believe the time has
come when there should be a revision of
the tariff schedules by a republican
congress-" If "the time has come when
there should be a revision of the tariff
schedules by a republican congress-
why does the republican congress, now
in session, fail to act? Is it difficult for
the ordinary man to understand that
J the people car not expect a revision in
the public interest from a political party
that derives its campaign funds from
tariff beneficiaries?

stuff on the eve of a primary election
campaign, is just now engaged in send
ing out to the people over the state a
small pamphlet which contains a
synopsis of the primary election law,
which will be handy to all voters, and at
the same time will no doubt be consider

Politics and Politicians
Random Shots at Politics Over the State

Democrats you have battles of your
own to fight. Go to the primaries on
June oath and vote our own party
ticket.
~
Let every voter of the democratic
party remember that if he should sign
the petition of a republican candidate
for office he will forfeit his right to vote
the ticket of his party at the primary
election.
Xxx
Less than two months remain till the
primary election on June "a and the
campaign among the candidates for
Office is now fully underway. With the
approach of the primaries politics is
warming up and the home stretch of the
first heat is sure to bring out all the
candidates who aspire for place on the
ticket next fall.
Interest in politics apparently is not
confined to in and Around Langdon. An
item in the news sent this week by our
correspondent at Olga tells of D. J..
McKinnon being a republican candidate
for county commissioner in the Fifth
district. The question of MACS
capability is ably endorsed by our
correspondent.
In all there appears to be about
twenty candidates for republican nomi-
nation for railroad commissioner. Cava-
lier county furnishing two. Since Sheriff
Reid entered the field the Milton Globe
forecasts that Ole Axvig's boomlet got
nipped In the bud. There are only three
road commissioners and it remains to be
seen which, if either, of the Cavalier
county aspirants for honors on the state
ticket have the strongest way from
home pull to land the converted nomina-
ton.
a**
Another republican candidate for
county Office to enter the field this week
is j.. W. Bleakley, who him
self as out for the county judgeshlp
nomination at the primaries. In a
residence here of several years be has
shown himself as a man possessing good
all around business ability. He has OPP
position for the nomination on his party
ticket in Finlay A. Mcdonald, of Milton,
at present incumbent of the office OF
public administrator, and even an X-ray
would fail to accurately forecast which
will have to put up the fight against
Judge Dorval, who is out for reelection
this fall, and so far has no opposition for
the democratic nomination.
~
Here in Cavalier county Hon. Rob't
Griffith, of Easily, is the only legislative
candidate to announce that he is in the
field. Now that legislative timber is
being RATED into the campaign Of
politics, the question naturally presents
itself, "What has become of the anti-pass
sentiment that was SO rampant among
some of u republican statesmen of
only two years ago?" OF course we do
not expect to hear much on that score
from legislators who have travelled on a
free pass for the past two years, but
there may be some who paid their way
out of the liberal mileage allowance they
received from the state. And then there
may be others-the new aspirants for
legislative honors-who have not been
tempted, and who know that the free
railroad pass is q bride. The public.
