FORUM NIGHTMARE.

Rock Lake Ripples: 1t seems the
governor was not very chummy or
communicative at the time he was
swapping senators. We suppose neith-
er Thompson nor the governor cared
to burden the public with their trou-
bles, nor did Mr.. Purcell, but at the
same time it seems queer that the mat
ter could have been kept so profoundly
secret that there were not any leaks
at all or suspicious little rays or shad-
ows fitting about the governors man
sion at the time. 1t appears that The
Forum just happened to have night
mare along that line at the proper
time, and later claimed 1t for scoop"
This was probably one of the times
when it was not best for the govern
or to take the people into full con-
fidences'-for you see Purcell, he was
working the hook" and had caught
the "phat" already.

ELIMINATING CANDIDATES.

There must have been some fun at
the meeting of the Good Government
league to select a mayoralry candi-
date. 1t is reported that some of his
friends" jumped on to the candidacy
of w. ]. Price so hard that Billy was
quickly given to understand he had
no show with the "eliminators."
There were many other candidates
suggested. One man wanted Jim Ken
nedy endorsed and assured the good
governmenters that if Kennedy was
mayor the city would have the best
administration it ever did.
Another man, to get things to a
head, moved the nomination of Billy
Hunt. At this a great clamor was
raised and Billy Hunts name joined
that of Billy Price among the dis
cards.
Finally after much trial and tribu-
lation the eliminators got down to
Emery, Rusch and Sweet. Emery wa
declared out of the running without
any explicit reason and then Rusch
got 1t where he had given many a tur-
key. Sweet was left the only heroic
boy on the burning deck-and was
given the blessing OF self-appointed

Sir Thomas Upton recently com

istic of the American people-from
the lowest to the highest elements in
society. One of the things which at
tracted his attention was the waste
fulness OF foods. In restaurants no.
tells and private homes he saw large
quantities OF food brought onto the
tables. small portions of which only
were used. The balance was sent back
to the kitchen to be disposed of an
the cook saw nt--but little of Ii ever
came back to the table in any form.
It must be acknowledged there liz
much tru4h in mis- indictment. As a
nation and people Americans have been

been wasted. But as waste9ul as they
have been there IL no reason except

FORUM PUBLISHED THE
NEWS"

Goodrich Citizen: Hon. w. e. Pur-
cell of Wahpeton was sworn in as
United States senator at washington
on Tuesday OF this week. Hon. Foun-
tain L. Thompson resigned the posi-
ton some time ago on account Of poor
health, but the governor attempted to
keep the resignation and appointment
a secret. 1t was not a success, how
ever, as The Fargo Forum published
the news some time ago. The Forums
story was discredited at the time but
it is now verified. AS a political
blundered our governor certainly is
the limit The appointment, If it had
been first hand, would have given
satisfaction amons-the democrats.
This gives Wahpeton two u. S. sem
ators.

"PLuMLEY's PAPER HUGGING

Linton Record: The Fargo Forum
has insisted for several days that SEN
ator Thompson was to resign and
State Senator Purcell of Wahpeton be
appointed United States senator in his
stead. This persistent claim on the
part of The Forum caused some of
the newspaper gnats that constantly
perch on the horns of the Fargo journ-
alistic bull to wax exceeding merry,
and to point the finger of scorn at The
Forum, calling it untruthful, sensa-
tional and so forth.
But it turns out that, as usual, The
Forum was right in it's assertions
and as result it may count to its
credit one of the biggest newspaper
scoops" the state of North Dakots
has witnessed for many a day. Hence
it is The Forums cue to smoker, and
hence it likewise is that Plumley's pap.

The seat sale for the Jeffries- Gotch

For the benefit of many anxious

never was proved that Jeferies was
gone, so the anxiety over his coming

the stake. The term come back cam

PARSONS cannot be applied to this
case, for the simple reason that JEFF

retired for the lack of suitable OPP
ponents. Jeffries' absolute good faith
with the public also is worthy OF men
ton, and right here let 1t be said
that at different times when promoters
and managers came to Jeffries with
offers for fights the big fellow turned
them down and gave as his reason
that it would be nothing short OF
cheating the public with such a fight
and he refused to be q party to such
schemes.

N. D. POLITICAL GOSSIP


Mayville Tribune: Among the mum
erous announcements OF candidates.
for republican nominations AT the
primary election this year, one of great
interest and Importance is that OF
Hon. Il. B. Hanna OF Cass county, an
nouncing that he Is q candidate for
denomination to the position which he
now holds, member OF the national
house of representatives for North
Dakota.
1t was widely talked OF that Com
gresham Hanna might enter the race
for United States senator, in which
he would have been a formidable COM
petitor had he determined to do so,
but he has decided instead to ask
another term as member Of congress
His announcement should and prob
ably win settle the matter OF who viii
represent North Dakota in the house
during the next two years, so far as
one of the seats is concerned, as 1t is
generally admitted that Mr. Hanna liz
the strongest candidate In the field,
with a long lead over the rest of the
aspirants.
Congressman Hannas ability in
dustry and value as a public servant;
his clean. creditable record as a mem
Der of the legislature for many years !;
his efficient service as a party worker;
his high personal character and stand
ing as business man, and his popu-
larity at home and over the entire
state, made him the choice of the re-
publican voters for the congressional
nomination two years ago and a win
ner over strong competitors, and Of
the people at the general election. With
the additional Recommendation of ex-
perience in congress and q record of
hard work and close attention to the
interests of the state and OF his con-
stituents. there is not much doubt that
Hanna will be accorded the usual sec
ond term and will be renonninated and
re- elected.
Drake News: Congressman Gronna
made another bull down at Washington
the other day, when he stated that the
roads in the state were blockaded and
would be impossible until about the
18th of May. The eastern papers
have knocked the state at every turn
in the road, but Gronna's statement
caps the climax.
