lnsurgentism and: Bo ssis m
FHm'natlon Committee and Boss Kue-Int ent Of
'n'ary E'eStlon law is to Give Ever
Candidate Fair Chew

Much has been touted about boss
rule in the state. The people who
have made the most over it have
shown how sincere their utterances
have been by constituting themselves
a committee of elimination" and put
their ticket in the field for the pro-
gressive or insurgent voters to walk
up to the primaries and vote for.
This is an elimination (?) Of boss
rule, indeed. This is the "holier
than thou" kind Of politics that the
Marshall, Gronna, etc. contingent are
trying to push down the threats Of
the voters OF North Dakota.
Even in the days when it was told
Mckenzie hald sway and was the big
boss, there never was anything like
this. Then to go further, these men
who claim they are the representa-
tives OF the progressive people of
North Dakota, have tried and are
trying to become the bosses Of the
Republican party in this state And
each one who went into the 'holy
alliance" has been feeding at the pub
lie through for the office itch.
There Is also q feature that is
strikingly progressive. Each of the
progressive or insurgents will claim
that the primay was Instituted so that
each man could register his vote for
whomsoever he chose. It is obvious
that the Democrats have held their

that Minot, being located at the very
gateway Of the west which was de-
veloping very fast, made her pros
poets unusually bright.
Major Murphy made q witty speech
and told some Of his inimitable stor-
les. He said Minot was great city
In a great country, but that the city
waso only in its infancy. He told them
what We were doing in the way of
conserving our natural resources and
showed them that Ward county last
year raised 20 per cent Of the fax
raised in the state. He referred to
the methods OF intensified farming,
and said that we were in fair way
to raise rs per cent better crops.
Secretary Ellis addressed the yisi-
tors, boosting Minot and making them
feel at home.
The social period followed. Frappe
and butter milk were served, and eli
gars passed. The visitors then spent
an hour meeting their Minot friends,
who had been doing business with
them, but whom many of them had
not met personally.
John Leslie Of the Leslie Paper Co.
was member Of the party. He was
enthusiastic over Minot's prospects.
and said he would not be at all sur.
prised to see this city Of 100000
people at time not far away.
Promptly at 10. the train left over

The morning was bright4o. PIX
cool enough to be exhilirating. The
train was met by thirty or forty autos,
enough to take practically the entire
party out for a ride. The auto pro-
cession took them to the North hill
and out into the country short dis
lance, where the farming operations
could be watched, and from the hill,
the city could be seen to best advan-
tage. They were taken back through
the business portion Of the city, out
on Valley street and up on the
South hill, and afterwards to, the
Commercial club rooms, where re-
ception was held.
A number OF interesting short
talks were made by members of the
visiting party and local citizens, Vice
President Whiting presiding. Presl-
dent LeSueur gave the citizens a
hearty welcome. He said the chief
Of police was locked in the smoke
house, and the keys were thrown in
the well, and it was up to them to
enjoy themselves.
w. g. Nye Of the Minneapolis Com
mercial club, responded. He said
that the impression Minot had made
on the visitors was great. They were
surprised at the growth Of the city,
and they admired the business spirit
that has made Minot, one Of the most
talked Of cities in the west. He said
