THE INTERESTS OF BISMARCK.

THE INTERESTS OF BISMARCK.
There are four candidates for the
United States senate who will ask
the suffrages of Republican voters
next Wednesday. Mr.. Little is the
equal OF any candidate in the race
in capacity, energy, knowledge Of
public affairs and familiarity with
the details of legislation. He has
the 's'how-to- get-it-iveness'' that
makes for practical success in legis-
lation.
He is untiring in his efforts. He
IS 1ikeable, a hustler, and the quail
ties that have made him successful
in business will make him successful
in the senate.
Bismarck has great many inter-
ests that are important. She has a
military post, brought here by the
labors of Mr.. Mckenzie, Mr.. Baker,
Mr. Little and a lot OF other good
citizens. who have an eye to the best
interests Of Bismarck.
The pay roll of that post is con
siderable. 1t goes into the channels
of trade in Bismarck. The time is
coming when the post will be enlarg-
ed-when there are the right men in
congress to push the enlargement.
Who will do more or better work
than Mr.. Little?
Who will be in a position to do
more effective work with a Republi-
can congress and the Taft admins
tration than the men who have stood
by Taft and the Taft forces in this
state?
Who will have more local pride,
more enthusiasm, more energy in
furthering Bismarck's interests than
Mr.. Little?
"a regfmental post means a city of
several thousand people added to
Bismarck. Does this mean anything
to business men, to owners Of prop
erty, to all classes Of citizens, who
prosper with the prosperity Of the
city?
Bismarck has an Indian school
that is also a government in institu-
ton. Who will do more to enlarge
that institution and make it valua-
BILE than Mr.. Little?
Bismarck has an appropriation of
$ 150, 900 for a public building It
can be increased to quarter of a
million. Who will do more to that
end, or will be in a position to do
more than Mr.. Little?
The Missouri river country has a
number of irrigation projects in pros
pect. Their development means the
addition Of thousands Of people to our
tributary country. Who will have
an interest in furthering this work
more than Mr.. Little2 z
The people of Bismarck, it seems
to us. have plain business propo-
sition before them. Irrespective Of
personal feelings, or prejudices
sought to be created, Of side Issues,
who will make the best United States
senator for the Interests of Bismarck
than a Bismarck man who has the
civic pride, the property interests,
the every inspiration to boost Bis
mark.
The improvements that have come
to Bismarck have not rained down
il the night. They have not happen
ed TO be located here. They have
been put here by Bismarck men.
after hard work and lots Of pushing
and energy. Mr.. Little, Mr.. McKen-
zie, and other loyal Bismarckesr
have been always active in getting
things for Bismarck.
Bismarck should stand Loyalty and
soiidly BY Mr. Little. The chief in
f1uences working against him are
men who do not live iii Bismarck
and Burleigh county, except out Of
the necessities of Official residence.
It IS 10 the interest Of Bismarck
to stand for herself and her own
citizens or TO stand for anybody from
somewhere else?
There should be but one answer.
A good many homesteads through
the state have coal upon the. and the
proofs upon these homesteads are
