THE uNHoLy MILLER.

Attorney General Miller, the nominee
for re- election on the republican ticket,
spoke at Hettinger' recently and ad-
vised his audience to vote for Burke.
Miller claims to have nothing against
c. A. Johnson-the gubernatorial can
didate on the same ticket on which he
is running-but fights his own party
man-his own running mate-and gives
aid to the opposition.
Attorney General Miller's treachery
to the ticket will probably not make
him as great a hero i'm the eyes of the
people of the state as he is in his own.
Had Mr.. Miller found certain of his
running mates so Objectionable he could
not support them-it would have SEEM
ed the far more honorable thing for
him TO have withdrawn from the tick
ct and made the race Independently.
AS it is he now repudiates one of the
republican nominees, but still sticks on
the ticket himself-with a hope of Sc
curing the benefits that may result
from being listed as a candidate I'M
der that banner.
His is a kind OF guerilla politics that
will not be generally Endorsed by either
republican faction or by the democrats

insurgent:

MAKE DOLLARS GROW
Popular Plan of the Northwestern,

Way to Make Money.

Just what cooperation of many lit
tie dollars brought together and intcl-
ligently handled and invested so thar
they make more dollars quickly Is
illustrated in The plans of the North
western Mutual Investment Co. of this
city.
Under their plans of operation the
money. of their certificate holders is
invested in improved city real estate.
Buying piece of land in a favorable
locality, they proceed to erect first
class modern building. and their build
ings are so good, and the locations SO
choice, that they are in demand as
soon as finished.
Now, when the land was bought II
was worth so much. The building Ii
erected and costs so much more, but
behold, the completed building and its
accompanying land heve become much
more valuable by simply coming intn
existence: hence certificate holders
have constantly growing security
back of the original Investment, while
earning interest ON the increase. Bet

minded voters of the integrity and
honor of the man whom they are invft
ed to support.
But look on that picture; then on
this. Governor Burke, two and four
years ago. told the same story to the
people that he Is telling now. He
made the same charges then that he
is making now. Many believed him
then because his promise was the only
evidence that could be asked. We have
his performance now, and thousands
of those who honestly supported him
then are not doing so now.
And why the change? Governor
Burke has been placed in positions
where actions are not post election
promises were required. With all his
boosted hatred of the interests and the
railroads he appointed well known
railroad attorney to the vacancy in
the United States senate. That one
act DEMONSTRATING many similar ones
should be proof enough to convict
the democratic candidate.
Here is the contrast. The republic
can party is offering G. A. Johnson as
a candidate for governor. He declares
he win not be dominated by anybody
except the people of the state. Wit
nesses prejudiced against him testify
that his word has always been made
good and they vouch for it now. The
democratic party is offering the pres
ent candidate for third term. He has
said in the past that he would not be
dominated by the interests. The first
time ne had an opportunity he ap-
pointed a man who was actively idcn-
tined with the interests to the highest
office in his power. Which one de-
serves to be credited with honesty
There are the two men. Let the hon.
est open and fair minded voter size
them up on this basis and take his
choice.
