WAS AAKER TOOL
OF DEMOCRATS?
CORRESPONDENT FROM JAMES,
TOWN PLACES NEW PHASE ON
LAST PRIMARY CAMPAIGN
AND LATER DEVELOP
MENTS.

Jamestown, N. D., Oct 29.--To The
Forum: Politics is getting warm in
this part of our republican state. The
only fight is over the governorship-
shall the republican or the democratic
party name the man?
I am a republican, yet I have for
the last three days tried to find out
the sentiment as to Johnson and
Burke in this county.
I do not find a man who voted for
Johnson two years ago who will vote
for Burke this time. On the other
hand, 1 find many who voted for Burke
two years ago who state they will vote
for Johnson on Nov. 8.
Yesterday afternoon / had a matter
to look after at the courthouse. While
in one of the offices l met three other
republicans. After talking over the
political situation we made a list OF
the names Of the republicans we knew
had voted for Burke two years ago
and now announced they would vote
for Johnson. Our combined LIST to-
tailed sixty-two. We estimated on the
same basis there would be at least 200
who would change their votes In this
county.
We believe the play of the democrats
in inducing Aaker Of Fargo to permit
himself to be used as a stalking horse
in the primary campaign last summer
to defeat Buchanan for the nomination
will about unite all classes Of repub-
llcans.
The friends of Buchanan in this
part Of the state feel that If Aaker had
been out of the race their favorits
would have won.
It is charged here that the demo-
Gratis knew Burke would have difficulty
in winning If Buchanan could have
secured the nomination, because Burke
couldn't get insurgent votes, and they
got Aaker into the race to defeat Blu
chanan.
The democrats knew if Buchanan
was defeated they could count on some
insurgent votes, but If Buchanan won
the insurgents and stalwarts would
both stick to him.
Later developments and declarations
by Aalter seem to confirm his unhoiy
alliance with the democrats. Many
people here are roundly denouncing
Aaker and are certain he permitted
himself to be used by the democrats,
while pretending to be republican.

committee have already prepared the
way for further forward movement
by selecting two sports for special
discussion = fencing, whereupon
France is taking up the question of a
definition, and track and field ath-
letics in regard to which the study of
the subject is left to the United King
dom representatives The reason for
selecting two sports SO widely sepa-
rated in their aspect may be ques-
toned, but careful consideration sug-
gests that in taking fencing, the most
aristocratic Of the Olympic sports. and
athletes, the most democratic, the
committee have acted with great was
dom. If formula can be found
which will unite the extremes, not so
great a difficulty need be anticipated
in dealing with the intermediate de-
grees Of opinion.
Reinstatement a Problem.
"As to the reinstatement of the pro-
fessional into good standing as an
amateur. there are variety of opin-
ions. The general view Is that an act
of professionalism does not altogether
close the avenue to the amateur ranks,
but that each case should be taken
upon its merits. Some hold that re-
qualifications should not be authorized
except by an international tribunal,
but presumably this would apply only
to such as would affect international
competition.
"The lax views of certain English
societies, on this point do not find
much support elsewhere, but it must
be borne in mind that in many cases
their reinstate ments are not of out ana
cut professionals, but Of men whose
offense lies in competing at meetings
or in events, not under their control
and this side of the subject, being
purely domestic, is not raised on the
of an international def
milton. But the athlete who has en-
barked upon a professional career in
full knowledge should not be regarded
as desirable person in the amateur
ranks, even though he recants, and,
while the authorities of each sport in
every country may reserve the right to
reinstate under exceptional circum-
stances, the declarations, were the ques-
tons put to them, would probably be
found to agree that a reinstated pro-
fessional should not be allowed to
compete in International sport unless
his reinstatement was confirmed by
an international committee at least
twelve months before the entries for
the games closed"

London, Nov. 1.-When the Olympic

professional and contested with John

he journeyed to America, and finally
was persuaded by the renowned Tom
my Ryan to try his hand with the
gloves.
A cleverer man than Ryan is not at
present in the business, and if that is
true O'Kelly has taken very kindly
to boxing, but what is more has shown
promise of excellence. OF course Ry-
an, like the good judge he is, has
brought his man along by degrees, and
not broken his heart by throwing him
up against "hot stuff" at the start.

Il has not not been very long since
the average American merchant cas-
ed his conscience with the belief that
competition was the life of trade and
went his way alone, seldom seeing
beyond the confines of his counting
room. When the community grew
he took II as = matter of course;
when IL stood still he laid 1t to the
politicians. Business was business.

helped to create the boss" system,
