ney at Grand Forks. A committee OF
one hundred members Of the bar was
| chosen to present to the people of the
state the views Of the attorneys of the
state, and they have prepared an in
dorsement of &hese men, to which they
have appended their names. The list
of one hundred seems to contain a
great majority, IL not ALL of the lead
ing lawyers in the state from Fargo
and Grand Forks in the east to Minot
and Dickinson In the west. Other in
dorsements by the bar associations of
different counties and by Ave former
judges of the supreme court are also
given to these three candidates.
1t does not appear from any Of these
Endorsements what are the political af-
ffTiations Of any of these candidates,
nor does that question seem to enter
into consideration at ALL Assuming
that the large representation of the
leading lawyers of the state constitutes
a correct Judgment as to the COMPARE
tive qualifications OF the several can
didates. the members of the bar of
North Dakota have certainly rendered
a valuable service TO the voters of the
state.

BOOSTING FOR JOHNSON.

With very few exceptions the repub.
lican candidates who participated in
the primaries are boosting for John
son for governor Andy Miller isn't
but such men as Gronna, Helgesen
Burdick, Buchanan, Stimmel and 9TH
ers are urging their followers to sup
port the entire state ticket. The For
UNI is glad to say the great majority OF
them are doing so.
The primary campaign was a clean
hard-fought battle with no favoritism
shown any of the candidates. None
of the candidates for governor could
have been kept out of the race. They
were not representing any special set
of people at first. Each man conclud-
ed he would take a whirl at the game
and entered the contest. Later the
insurgents favored Buchanan and the
stalwarts Johnson-but neither man
was brought out"
When the voters went into the
booths on the day of the primary cleo
tion-they were alone with themselves
and their Creator. Alex Mckenzie was
not standing by their elbows telling
them how to vote. They cast their
ballots and Johnson won. He secured
the nomination without faint of crook
edness--or underhand methods.
The rank and file of the republicans
of the state recognize this fact and
they are supporting him.
johnson is clean man. His worst
undertaking opponent has found moth
ing in the character of the man he
could malign. Johnson is honest and
fearless-and when he occupies the ex-
ecutive office he will be governor. He
will be the tool Of no man.
Twice he has secured the nomination
both times under the primary Law
that permits a free expressica by every
voter, it is claimed. Having twice Sc
cured such high honor at the hands
of the people it seems to TIE Forum
that he is worthy of election.
This state has normal republican
majority Of huge proportions. If the
republicans do their duty next Tues
DAY Johnson will be named as govern
or by an overwhelming vote.

Auto STAGE Line.

Aberdeen, S. D., Nov. 1.-Enterpris-
ing residents of Lennon have estab-
lished an automobile stage line which
will run from Eagle Butte, the winter
terminus of the Fox Ridge extension
of the Milwaukee railroad, to Faith
and then connect with other automo-
bile stage lines which will cover the
territory between the principal towns
In that part of South Dakota where
rail connections have not yet been es-
tablished. The newly developed fea-
ture of the stage coach OF the first half
of the last century is hailed. with de-
light by the people Of the new towns.
1t was feared for time that much
suffering would be caused the people
of the towns from Eagle Butte to
Faith, on account of the failure Of the
railroad to reach Faith this fall as
1T had promised to do, but 1t is prob
able the establishment of the automo-
bile stage line will remedy the threat
ened condition of affairs, unless an un-
usually snowy winter should visit the
newly settled country.

But Mr.. Burke is a democrat, and he

the appointive offices of the state with
democrats.

Travellers Tales

When Tad Williams registered at

the change and when the representa-

walked away from the desk he gazed
at the register with interest
"Mr. and Mrs. T.. williams" were
the names that were down there Bob
was surprised and called Williams to
the desk and asked him to explain,
Tad did so gladly and told how he had
married the finest lady of the land
and was going to live in Fargo-the

NORTH DAKOTA JUDICIARY.

Commenting on the big fight in
North Dakota over the members of
the supreme court, The st. Paul Dis
patch, an insurgent publication, says:
The situation in North Dakota with
regard to the election of Judges IN the
supreme court is interesting. In that
state they have undertaken by legisla-
tive enactment to take the sunre,,,e
court out Of politics. The law provides
: for bipartisan nominations and FOR
4 separate judicial ballot on election
day. Under this act two candidates
are nominated at the primary for each
Jndlclal ofrce to be filled. There are
three vacancies to be filled this time
and six candidates. In states where
this system Of nomination and election
of supreme court judges is In effect
there has been some criticism at times
because OF the failure of the lawyers
70 inform the voters as to the relative
qualifications Of the candidates. The
presumption is that the lawyers of the
state know the qualifications OF the
members of their own profession FOR
these positions better than the general
public does and should be frank
enough to indicate who should be
chosen.
In North Dakota the lawyers have
accepted the responsibility imposed BY
their presumably better knowledge Of
the facts and have indicated which
three of the six candidates are besl
qualified for the supreme bench Thi.
Endorsement is given to Justices Fish
and Ellsworth, now serving on ths
bench, and to G. M Cooley, an attor

LOADING PLATFORMS.

was a member of the law making bod
les he opposed the bill compelling the
railroads to erect loading platforms SO
the farmers could make independent
shipments of grain. This bill was also
opposed by the railroads and the ele-
vator companies. Why did Burke OPP
pose it-work with them-and against
the farmers of North Dakota-who
wished to assert their independence
and market their grain without having
to pay tribute to the local elevators?

THEORY OF ADVANCED PRICES,

1t does not take much to advance a
price every little while. An explana-
tion of the recent increase in the price
of bacon illustrates the point surpris-
| ingIy.
The price of bacon, as the public has
already discovered, has gone up as
much as cents on the pound, where
the best grade is concerned, and al
most as much on the lower grades.
Here is an explanation that has been
offered by man who has his being
in a bacon atmosphere:
There was such an enormous crop
of corn this year that it behooved the
hog raiser to feed his stock almost
Exclusively on corn-though in normal
years slops and mash" have been
largely depended upon.
AS a result of the corn diet, the
hogs have grown to unusual sizes.
Here is where the question of bacon,
and the price of bacon, comes in. 1t
seems that a hog must not weigh more
than $50 to It's pounds IL 1t is to yield
the best grade of bacon-according to
the expert. But the hogs this year
have attained a weight of from 200 to
900 pounds-that is to say, the hogs
which should have weighed but half
that much, or whereabouts, for bacon's
sake.
According to this truthful authority,
there is a scarcity in Al bacon-and
the price has had to be advanced S
cents per pound
Also. according to this bacon expert,
this Is the time of the year when veg
etarians turn to bacon. Now that the
season of fruits and vegetables has
passed, bacon comes in handy.
All of which is recounted here, not
because it sounds any more convincing
than 1.-THE Tale of the Kangaroo" 1t
throws a bright light upon the methods
adopted by certain intellects, by which
simple people are "gouged"--as long as
they have a sou to pay as tribute to
sharp wits.
