SITUATION AT MlNoT..

Recently Editor McGahan of the
Minot Democrat asked what was the
matter with Minot. He explained that
year ago there were no vacant
houses while now there were many.
Editor Clark of the Minot Reporter
gives the following explanation:
What has indeed brought about this
condition of affairs? There is some
thing rotten, and a d-n long way this
side of Denmark at that. While we are
reluctant to admit it,something has hit
Minot astern, pushing the bowsprit
through her poop-deck, to use nauti.
cal term, and causing the business
men to set up a Comanche yell. that
would be fit accompaniment to sun
dance. We, have heard the question
discussed on the streets, in hotel lob.
bies, at the clubs and in fact every.
where that people congregate; and
every last man that has expressed
himself gives the same reason for ex.
listing conditions. 1t appears to be
pretty generally conceded that Minot
is suffering too sudden and too siren.
uous reform.
We had always heard that Minot
was considerably on the racy order
but never thought that it was so bad
that it would kill the town to close
down the lid. Verify the way of the
transgressor is hard. Wish we had
a lot of those empty houses in Devils
Lake, they could soon be filled here
as that is about the shortest thing we
have in this locality.

this question with yourself. Compare
the prices you receive for your farm
products today with the price you re-
ceived for them after the mugwumps
(as the Journal article state) so nobly
assisted in the election of Grover
Cleveland to the presidency of the
United States. Take warning, readers,
the same condition confronts you to-
day, when your machinery is running
well enough you do not. tinker with
it. Why not do SO in: otner! matters?
BY the assistance Of republicans and
some of the leading newspapers then as
now now being edited under the cloak
of republicanism but at all, times ad-
vising their readers to support the pri-
mary nominee of the republican party
if it so happens that he is affiliated
with their special wing of the party,
but if not vote for the democrat, sue
ceeded in the election of a democratic
governor in our strong republican
state, the principal issued being to
compel the railroads to pay their por-
tons of the taxes; the contention that
the railroads were already paying
their share of the taxes was deemed
an idle contention. The first term of
the democratic governor resulted in
no raise of railroad assessment and
+ hn
majority of the board of equalization,
/ the next issue being to elect a major
tty OF the state board of equalization
This was also done as we'll as the cleo
ton of democratic governor and
what was done? No further excuse
being available, the railroad assess
ment. was raised from 1917 to 46 Ia
per cent and in order to legalize the
same, all other assessments were rails
ed from 12h to 1870 per cent. and thus
ended the fulillment of the issue over
which so much noise had been made
and over which factional breach was
made in the republican party. But in
the meantime the democrats have had
the governor who has appointed dem
ocrats in all important offices to be fill.
led by him even to a United States
senator while few of the republicans
for Office onyl, were appointed to min.
or positions
We merely relate this facts to show
how party principles should at all
times stand far above such small mat
tiers, and how the sensationalist can
succeed in disrupting a party over
matters of no particular importance
thereby allowing matters of great i'm
portance to fall the prey of the demo
cratic party, and if we continue this
course it will be a matter of a short
time when we will land once more ir
the hands of free trade democrtie
administration. then away will fly the
goose that is laying the goldens.

MORRISON FOR LEGISLATURES

In this weeks Inter.O Ocean appears
the announcement of Mr.. Norman Nor
rison as a candidate before the primar-
les to the state legislature. 1t is IA
pleasure to the republicans of Ramsey
county to have such men as Mr.. Morri-;;
son accede to their wishes and become
candidates for these responsible posi-
lions. It would indeed be difficult to-
find in this or any other county man
more capable Of filling this position
as it should be filled than can Mr.. Nor.
rison. He is a man who has lived
among us for long time, and during
that time he has been one of the most
successful and is now among the most
substantial farmers in this vicinity, He
is not only we'll known in his own To-
cality about Webster but is we'll and
most favorably known throughout
Ramsey and adjoining counties. Hell
a man Of excellent business quaHflca-
lions, upright and honorable in all his
dealings, staunch republican and
we'll worth the support of any man.
Therefore we say that it is with pleas
ure that we learn of his determination
to permit his name to be placed be-
fore the people for this office, and we
predict for him a very strong follow
ing. ~
A man who has been prominent In
the democratic party in this county for
years remarked Monday that the Devils
Lake Journal did not seem to realize
that there was democratic party, as
it was devoting all it's energy to taxi
ing sides in the republican controver.
sy. He also said that it was 8 his
opinion that if that paper was going to
continue that course it should throw
off it's cloak of democracy. The demo.
cratic party is hopelessly divided, and
the party papers will have "sufi-
cient to keep them busy in their own
party without devoting SO much time
to taking sides in the republican mix
up, said he. -
