ROOSEVELT WILL HELP.

The North Dakotans who rode with
Colonel Roosevelt from Fargo to Min
neapolis appear to have made good
impression on the former president.
The latter has agreed to run a 5000
word article in The Outlook giving the
viewpoint of the farmers against reci-
procity.
North Dakotans are preparing the
article and also arranging other facts
TO be used before the senate commit
tee.
The activity of North Dakotans has
proven contagious as Minnesota, Wis
consin and Iowa have now joined in the
fight to prevent the enactment of the
reciprocity measure.
There is wide difference Of opinion
as to the probable action of the SEN
ate. Candor compels the admission
that the situation is not very roseate
for the opponents of the measure
There is, however, a good fighting
show, and there are some good scrap

lieve reciprocity would be handicap
