Second Democratic Speech

Governor John Burke arrived
in Washburn Saturday evening
after giving political talks in Gar
rison and Underwood. A good
sized house greeted him. His
whole talk was along the line of
what he had done since he be-
came governor. and why. He
said the sins of the entire legisla-
ture were all put on one poor lone
democrat; that this was CAM
paign of deceit and showed how
some people we're trying to hurt
his non PARTISAN candidacy.
Mr.. Burke went to Mercer and
McClusky on Sunday. Sheridan
county is a strong democratic
county and the governor was given
a royal welcome.

One Blind-pigger Left

Bill Proctor. better known as
Crazy Bill or Texas Bill, was on
one of his frequent drunks Mon
day night, loaded to the foolish
stage where he imagined himself a
cowboy again back on the Texas
range. Late that evening Mr.. Bert
Callahan of Washburn drove up to
one Of the hotels with "a bunch of
six jubilee singers who intended to
stay all night and take the train
east, Tuesday morning. Bill saw
them and flashed a gun ordering
them out of town and even went so
far as to threaten to shoot anyone
who sheltered them.- He was fin
ally quieted by one of our towns
men who also carried a gun a little
stronger line of bluff than Bill.
Proctor is that broncho buster who
has been here all summer. Last
Fourth of July night he chased a
negro out of town and shot at him
three or four times. He made his
getaway Monday night for he had
a hunch that Sheriff Beck was on
his trail Wave.

Condensed News Items
Gathered Everywhere
Papers Devote Great Deal Of Space to Politics
Which viii be Hard to FIJI After Election
Next Tuesday

Many changes have been not
ed all over the state in the last
two weeks, changes that are favor
able for the entire republican state
ticket.
H. II. Aaker, who was a can
didate for governor at the June
primaries and lost, was for John
son right after the election and
now he seems to be backing Burke.
Its no doubt good thing for the
state that he lost out as man
who can change his politics so
quickly would certainly not make
a good state official.
The people Of Garrison have
been warned against using water
that has not been boiled, a warm
ing that has been sent out in
number of the cities this fall.
jamestown will wut up ice this
year that is to be used only in
refrigerators and ice to be used
in dinking water will have to be
imported.
Wilton is working for new
school house. A more modern
building is wanted and one that
is large enough to accommodate all
who wish to attend from the
country.

Was Badly Hurt

Last week B. L. Baardson, q
brother of the Misses Mary and
Annie Baardson of Washburn, was
badly hurt in Bismarck while try
ing to stop a runaway. He was
knocked down and his leg broken
in two places above the knee. He
also received other injuries from
which it will take some time to re-
cover. Miss Annie Baardson
went to Bismarck last Friday
afternoon to help care for her
brother.

two years ago but since the voters
have heard the good speeches
given here lately, the county is

be little doubt about the outcome.

Mandan citizens made an effort to

The work on the north branch
was discontinued early in the
summer.

A Packed House
Greets Speakers
Hon. q. c. Hansbrough and General
E.A. Williams Spoke at the
Opera House Friday

It had been two years since ex.
Senator 81. G. Hansbrough was in
Washburn and his many friends
were as anxious as in the past to
hear his opinion on the political
issues so much under discussion
before election. The crowd was
the largest ever seen at political
meeting in this city. Many teach
ers, who were here attending in
stitute. stayed over to hear his adj
dress.
Mr.. Hansbrough and General E
A. Williams were brought to the
city in the evening by G.. 0. Rau-
gust who went to Coleharbor after
them in his auto. An enthusias
tic meeting had been held in the
afternoon at Coleharbor
The band gave a couple of seleci-
tions on Main street and then
went to the hall where it played
until the crowd gathered.
Sheriff j. A. Beck introduced
the speakers, first Mr. Hansbrough
SPOKE on national issues as he
knows them by personal expert!
ence at the national capitol. His
was a straight forward talk to the
people, comparing events when
the democrats were in power with
the republican rule. Mr.. Will
Jams was next introduced and
spoke on the state questions. Mr..
Williams is a forceful speaker and
influenced many men in casting
their vote for johnson and not
for a democrat.
From here the speakers went to
Wilton where they held a meeting
Saturday afternoon.

Republicans Are
On Winning Side
I. A. Johnson Has Made a Clear
Cut Statement Of His Position
as Governor.

There is only a few more days Of
the campaign. and as the time for
the election approaches it is clear
ly evident that the republicans of
the state will generallysupport the
primary nominee of their party,
G. A. johnson for governor. and
put an end to the dominance of
the democratic machine that has
been built up in this state for the
purpose of swinging the state into
the democratic column. The dem-
ocrats have entirely abandoned
their pretenses to non- -partisanship
since the introduction of Bryan
and Lind to North Dakota to talk
for democracy. The election speech
es Of Senator Clapp and Senator
Cummins, calling upon repub,i-
cans to support their party nomi-
nees and warming them against the
specious arguments of the demo-
Gratis for republican votes have
had their effect among the repub-
licans. Senator Cummins' address
was especially notable as calling
upon republicans to remain loyal
to the choice of their primary elec-
tions. There is no question now
as to the united front that will be
presented to the democracy at the
election.
The democrats have naturally
carried on campaign of misrepre-
sentation and innuendo against G.
A. johnson. the republican candi-
date. We say naturally: because
this is the only means by which
the democrats can hope to gain re.
publican votes. aud the only way
the democratic officeholders in this
state can perpetuate themselves in
office. 1t is the only way they will
be able to retain their firm grasp
on the state institutions. The on
ly way in which the democrats
have been successful in promoting
their campaign interests is by pre-
judicing or seeking to pre- udice
the republican voters against their
nominee for governor. And this
plan has failed. For the republi-
can voters see thru their scheme.
Mr.. johnson makes a clear cut
and positive statement of his po-
sition as governor. He says he
will give the state clean. fair and
honest administration and that
merit will be the consideration in
the naming of men to Office. What
is the test of man? His actions
must be. and Mr.. johnson certainly
would go no farther from the real
will of the people than his oppo-
nent did when he named Bour-
bon democrat. reactionary and rail-
road attorney. to be United
States senator from the state of
North Dakota. And so far, we
have heard no attempts at an ex-
planation of that appointment

KN~W LITTLE ABOUT GUNS
Maeaz Reader criticizes Nove.ists
for Their Ignorance of the
Subject.

"Of all the fool people that are let
loose in fiction," exclaimed the gun
crank as he disgustedly threw across
the room the magazine he had been
reading, "the alleged gunfighter is the
worst Why don't the authors who
want to put shooting into a novel at
least go to gun store and see what a
revolver or a rife looks like before
they try to write about III
Magazine editors who go In for
that sort OF fiction ought to have a
gun editor who would know the differ
ence between derringer and a scatter
gun, and who would at least be, aware
of the fact that 1t isn't the trigger that
clicks when you cock a shooting iron
Of any sort-although ignorant nc-el-
lists have been producing thrills and
shivers in equally ignorant readers
with that click of the trigger so long
that the mistake has become a cl7ssic.
Nov, here's an author" and the
gun crank picked up the magazine he
had just thrown down and found the
sentence which had set him of.
Here's an author who makes one of
his characters, represented as a crack
a-jack with & gun of any sort, twirl
he cylinders of his revolver with the
practiced thumb as he gets ready to
shoot! How many cylinders does
that author think revolver has, any,
way, and what does he think the cylin,
der is for, and what does he sup
pose would happen to man who stop
ped to play with his gun in that way
when somebody else had the drop on
him?
And the other day | read about an
other fighting man in novel who,
his creator alleged, had carefully filed
away the trigger spring of his rifle
And I've been trying ever since to fig
ure out what the author supposed
himself to mean and what he imag-
ined he was going to make his hero
accomplish By such an asinine pro-
ceeding as that.
But it's no use trying to find sense
in such stuff. There isn't one novel
writer in a thousand, anyway, who
would know the difference between a
six-shooter and skyscraper!"
