Trains Goinq West.
EXERCISE COMMON SENSE.

) North Dakotans have vivid recollec-
tons of the panic Of 1898. The finan-
cial disturbance of 1907 is still fresher
in the minds of the public.
The Forum is usually on the opti-
mistic side of things. 1t prefers to
chronicle the bright-rather than the
gloomy things At the same time it is
not so foolish that it doesn't see signs
of trouble ahead-if political and other
conditions become more disturbed.
The financial situation responds
quickly to political unrest. The east
ern situation is more or less acute. In
the west, especially in North Dakota,
crop conditions are by no means en-
eouraging.
Why not do your part to prevent the
possibility of a panic by voting for
men like McCumber, Engerud and
Hanna to represent North Dakota in
congress? Why take chances and play
with the fire by sending insurgent
kickers to congress with the avowed
purpose of still further disturbing con-
ditions and creating political chaos?
What will that benefit you, Mr. Voter?
There is no wisdom in lighting
torch while you are sitting on a powder
key. Every merchant wants sound con-
ditions so he can continue business.
Every farmer wants prosperity so the
products can be maintained at salts
factory prices. Every laboring man
will be benefited if there is commercial
activity and he can be employed at
good wages-permanently
This is a time for the exercise of
common sense and judgment. 1t is no
time for gratifying political spite
revenge seeking-or experimenting with
political dynamite.
The Forum honestly believes that it
Is for the best interests of every resi-
dent Of North Dakota that stable
financial conditions be maintained It's
purely matter of business. 1t believes
this can best be done by the retention
of Senator McCumber and Congress-
man Hanna in their present positions
and by sending Judge Engerud to con-
gress to succeed the late NJ. N. john
son.
STUDY the situation-look out for
your interests-and vote right at the
state primaries, June 20.

GEORGE WILSON'S CLAIMS.

Geo. w. Wilson Of Williston, one OF
the quintette of candidates seeking
the republican nomination for governor,
is sending out an estimate of his vote.
Mr.. Wilson figures that both Stimmel
and Aaker are drawing from Buchanan.
He estimates that Stimmel will re-
ceive from 5000 to 5000 votes while
Aaker will get from 10000 to 10000.
Mr.. Wilson then figures that there will
be 10000 to $4,000 more votes to be
divided between him, Johnson and
Buchanan. His further estimates are
that 10000 to $4,000 of these will be
cast by Williams, Mckenzie. Noun
trail and Ward counties. In the first
three Mr.. Wilson feels certain he will
secure practically the unanimous vote
and that he will also carry Ward.
These with other votes over the state,
Mr.. Wilson believes, will nominate
him.
either candidates are unlikely to ac-
cept Mr.. Wilson's figures-either in
totals-or as to his strength in the
northwestern part of the state. Mr.
Wilson is a most likeable and pleas
ant gentleman. He will secure a large
vote in the northwestern part of the
state-but it is scarcely. probable he
will have the solid vote of the. three
counties he names-or a majority in
Ward.

Joe was selected as the victim.
