bear in mind that Senator Nc
Cumber has been making a valiant
fight for the federal inspection of
grain which is a move in their be-
half, and his efforts are meeting
with success. 1t is sure to come
as the sentiment in congress, is
fast coming to the flea, Not only
is he working for that, but he is
doing his utmost to represent the
state for all the people. When
the farmers of North Dakote go to
the next polls to choose their
senators next month they should
vote for Mr.. McCumber, who is
the hest man IN our judgment for
the position. He is in line for
the Craftsmanship of the senate
committee on finance if he is re-
elected. This committee will have
more to do with the revision of
the tariff, the banking or currency
system or any kind of legislation
affecting the taxation of the
people than any committee of the
senate. Our people should keep
representatives in congress long
enough to give them a chance to
do something and not change
them every election at the behest
of a lot of political Office seekers.
Give McCumber a chance and he
will make good.

The Dinglcy bill was fruitful of much

Many of the best papers in the

Hankinson News: The News

the candidates for United States
senators and congressman whom
we believe are best entitled to the
support of the voters at the COM

ator McCumberheads the list. In
point Of ability experience and
general fitness we consider
him the best man that could
be named to represent the
state in the senate. He combines
the qualities of orator, student and
statesman to a degree that should
command him to every voter. Add
to this his twelve years of ex-
perience in the senate, his untiring
energy in behalf Of the farmers,
civil war veterans and people of

Indeed, 1 think it would loose
much.
Now, you denounce the tariff
law. No, not so much the law;
you denounce the man that made
it. Indirectly, therefore, you de-
nounce the president that gave it
his approval. Democrats are en-
gagged in doing the same thing.
Thus they hope to get into Office.
Is it this also that your factional
friends are striving for. Perish
the thought! Yet, in your de-
nunciation of individuals, you do
not point out where the tariff has
injured North Dakota farmers and
other business men. OF course
not, for they have not been injured
and are not likely to be injured,
unless you succeed in scuttling the
ship Of state.
So, when I read your very in

Hov scouts and tho Military.

Boy Scouts and tho Military.
The boy scout idea will appeal to all
healthy minded boys. It is natural
for young folks to want to be In the
open and to be doing things there.
Left to themselves. they will build
huts and boats and bridges, camp out
and practice the arts Of woodcraft.
The boy scouts will be taught how TO
do all this systematically and also how
to trail and stalk the enemy. 1t Will
be healthfuf fun and good exercise,
and under semioficial authority and
direction the boys will not tend to
outlawry and have the lid put upon
their amusements by stern parental or
civic guardians.
The boy scout movement should
have a nobler destiny than most fads
Of the kind. OF course it is a fad and
after the novelty is worn off will be
likely to degenerate into mischief or
hoodlumism unless a mark is set for
something nobler than mere pastime.
As far as it goes. the program is just
the thing for raw soldiers. 1t teaches
the boys certain knacks Of camp and
field life which all novices in war
must acquire and shows them how to
trough it" sensibly. All this need not
be lost after the boy outgrows the boy
scouts and begins to look upon them
as kindergartners.
The states. in cooperation with the
national government, maintain a ma
tional guard. but we have failed to
build up as a reserve to this organized
militia u provisional corps. A call to
arms today would be practically a
muster Of wholly unframed men. The
military knowledge acquired in boys
schools and by the boy scouts could
be conserved by advancing those boys
who have a military bent into a pro-
visional corps of militia, where they
might keep in touch with military
training, progress and discipline.

The Leader notes that othe:
counties along the slope are put
ting forward their strong men fol
the legislature. In Burleigh coun'
ty General E. A. Williams is {
candidate for the house. He is ar
old time republican, having beer
a resident Of Dakota and North
Dakota for nearly forty years. He
represented Buffalo county when
it comprised more that half the
territory now included in North
Dakotn. He was speaker Of the
house of the territorial Legislature
back in 1883 and has been speaker
since statehood. He is a strong
candidate, a sound republican, an
able parlirnentarian, and in every
way well qualified for the position.
Emmons county puts forward
D. r. Streeter of Linton, likewise
an able speaker, an old timer who
is broad in his ideas and a valu-
able representative in the legisla-
ture. He has had the benefit of
experience in the lower house, and
IS we'll acquainted with the mem
bers through the state. He is we'll
liked and will make a creditable
representative. In Kidder county
H. S. Wood Of Steele is a candi-
date, and hs is also a broad mind
ed and liberal man, who will make
a splendid representative and he
should be chosen by the people to
represent them. These men are
all old residents, and are not mar
row or sectional in their views,
but are all capable and broad mind
ed men, who will WELD Influence
in the Legislative body.
1t is to be hoped and the Leader
urges that Mclean county look
about among the candidates and
select broad and capable men to
represent them in the Legislature.
This is important to the people Of
this county. We do not want men
who are narrow or small, who have
only one idea and who are inter-
ested only in some special bit of
legislation. We want men who
will rank with the other men who
will represent the Missouri slope
counties, and who will reflect credit
on Mclean and enable this county
to take it's place with the other
big counties of the state in the
matter of legislation. 1t is highly
important that a growing county
like this one shall have able and
capable men to speak for her and
to represent h er in Legislative
councils. 1t ought not to be diff
cult for the voters of this county
to select from among the candi-
dates in the field those best quail
fed to represent Mclean county
in the Legislature. We want men
who are solid business men, who
understand the needs of Mclean
county and the slope, who know
the state and its needs, and who
are broad and liberal minded. With
such men in the legislature Nc.
Lean county will be enabled tc
take her proper place.
