He then took up the primary cleo
ton and the duty of Republicans to
abide by the decision Of the majority.
Under this primary election. B. @.
nominated as candidates for the state
legislature from the Sixth district
and they were entitled to the support
OF each and every Republican voter.
At the next session Of the state legis-
lature. United States senator will
be elected and In order that the elec-
ton OF Republican senator be as
sured, Republican members of the
legislature are an absolute necessity
A Democratic representative must
vote for his party candidate and
would not vote for either Thomas
Marshall or M. N. Johnson for the
office. With this condition existing.
he believed that the very best thing
that could possibly be done would be
the selection of Republican 1egisla-
tors.
Mr.. Wineman also spoke of the Re-
publican candidate for county auditor,
Nick Powell of Larimore. He has
made good record as city auditor
of Larimore and he knew that II Mr..
Powell was elected as county audi
tor, he would make good in the same
manner. He is the nominee of the
Republican party and Is entitled to
Republican support In closing his
address, Mr.. Wineman spoke of law
enforcement, with special reference to
the prohibition law.
Ashamed OF Party
The next speaker of the afternoon
was G. A. Johnson, candidate for gov
ernor. In his address. the speaker
took up several interesting features
of, the campaign and his arguments
were received with more than ordi-
nary interest by the audience. Mr..
johnson gave one Of the best speeches
he has made during the campaign and
that 1t was vote winner, is certain
One peculiar thing that has impress
ed Mr.. Johnson on his tour of Grand
Forks county. was the distinguishing
difference between the cards given
out by candidates for Office. He has
received number of cards, on them
the names Of the candidates and the
party to which he belongs, but so far
he had failed to discover a candidate
on the Democratic ticket who had his
party name on 1t.
"Why does he not come out and tell
what party he belongs to-" said the
speaker. ut would seem that these
candidates are ashamed of their party
that has given them their nomination
and want to say now that If was a
Democrat I most certainly would not
vote for the candidate of my party
II that candidate was ashamed to put
put the name of the party on his
card"
Mr.. Johnson then took up the legis-
lative candidates from the Sixth
district, stating that he believed Mr..
Skulason and Mr.. Collins would rep
resent the district at Bismarck in a
very able manner II they are elected
and he hoped that they wonld be. OF
Mr.. Gronna and Mr.. Hanna, he had
only the highest words of praise Both
men have shown their ability to dis
charge public trust, and would make
splendid team to represent the state
at Washington.
For Farmers Welfare
The next speaker introduced was L.
B. Hanna and In his address he took
up several matters of state interest,
showing to the farmers the advantage
of certain legislation enacted by the
Republicans Of North Dakota two
years ago. In this legislation, Mr..
Hanna has taken very prominent
part The larger part of the acts
referred to were of direct benefit to
the North Dakota farmer, showing that
Mr.. Hanna took q great deal of in
terest in their welfare.
The North Dakota Agricultural COL
lege at Fargo is doing great work
for the benefit Of the farmer. 1t takes
up different propositions that are Of
direct benefit to the tiller of the soil
and In order that the best results
might be accomplished, certain legis-
lation has been secured. An act
passed at the last session Of the leg
islature provides for green house at
the college in which work can be car
ried on during summer and winter;
where the young men Of the state may
observe the growth of different
plants from their very beginning to
maturity and can study them. Then
there was secured a seed house and
the purpose of this is to provide pure
seed for the farmers of the state. The
station at Fargo and other points in
the state grows the very finest kind
of seed each year and this will be
distributed about the state SO that
farmers will be enabled to secure
seed free from foreign seeds.
The establishment of the state vet
erinary board was another forward
step. AS result of the work of this
board tuberculosis and glanders are
being stamped out. There yet re-
mains, however, to make the workings
OF the board thoroughly satisfactory,
the making of an appropriation to re-
imburse the farmer or owner of cat
tie or horses that are killed because
of disease.
Additional Money for State
The need of national pure lin
seed oil measure was then taken
up. Mr.. Hanna showed that an
alysis had been made by Prof. E.
F. Ladd at Fargo showing that
certain oils sold in this state as
