state Of North Dakota, we endorse the
candidacy Of Hon. L, b. Hanna Of Far
go. Years Of splendid public service
At him for this, the highest state Office
to which the people have the power of
elective choice. We shall explain later

Kathryn Recorder: Hon. L. B. Han
ma is now looking after his political
interests In the state. He made a
call in our burg last Friday, and re-
ports that he is much pleased with the
outlook, We hope to see him nominat-
ed and elected governor of the state of
North Dakota, for we believe Mr..
Hanna to be the available candidate
on the republican ticket. Let's see
that our ballot is marked properly and
for L. B, Hanna for governor. He

Minot Independent: A few Of the
static papers are trying to work up
some enthusiasm for James Buchanan,
candidate for governor. Mr.. Buchan-
an as a perfectly honorable man, has
been a successful farmer, but he don't
impress uE as being particularly good
material for the important Office to
which he aspires. He'd probably make
a good fair county commissioner, but
he isn't big enough for governor of
North Dakota. There are probably
10000 other men in North Dakota Just
as well qualified as Buchanan for the
Office. We ought to select the great
est man in the state.

The Republican State platform
failed to rebuke Governor Hadley
for his attempt to treble the State
assessments. The omission is
significant. If the candidates OF
the Republican party had dis
agreed with Hadley they would
have said so. They endorsed his
administration, and his effort to
increase the taxes is a part of
his administration. Therefore the
Republican candidates are by their
own actions committed to the
high-tax theories of Governor
Hadley. But there is nothing I'M
usual in this. The Republican
party is known as the party of high
taxes.

THE following Is taken from the
Potosi Journal, a Republican pa
per: "The hardest task of the pres
ent campaign in Missouri is car
ried on the shoulders of Bro. Ben
Deering, who is in charge Of the
press Bureau of the Republican
State Committee. The reason
the job is so hard, is the difficulty
in keeping his press matter in har.
mony with the conflicting elements
of the party. AT first, before the
Progressive movement took shape,
Bro. Deering had little trouble
cooking up his editorial dope fol
the party organs. All he had to dc
waste putin the regular ingredi'
ents and the usual harmony flavor,
and all was well. But when Gov
ernor Hadley went all spradled out
after the Colonel, the dope began
to be a regular-progressive mix
ture that was difficult to reconcile
with itself and hard to assimilate,
Now, since the Colonel was de-
feated at Chicago, Bro. Ben is in
straits to keep from insulting the
Governors convictions while he
softsoaps Mr.. Taft and throws the
editorial gaff into Roosevelt"

THE Republican State platform
comes out in a positive declaration
in favor of abolishing the contract
system of convict labor. The
politicians who framed that plat
form are two years behind the
time, as usual. A law abolishing
the contract system of convict Ia
Dor was enacted by the Democratic
legislature two years ago. The
operation of the law is now tenn
porarily held up by an Injunction
issued from the Circuit Court of
Cole County, but that is no fault
of the Democrats, because the
judge of that court, Hon. John M.
Williams, is a Republican and was
appointed by Governor Hadley.

THE Republican State platform
raises the old gerrymander issue
again, and plainly indicates the
Republican intention to disfran-
chise the country people OF this
State in the interest of politicians
who now rule the Republican
party. They tried to raise the
question by initiative petition pur-
suant to the oft-repeated an
nouncement of Governor Hadley.
The petitions were duly circulated,
but the Republican voters refused
to sign them. The people were
and are justly Suspicious of any
such scheme. The Republican
politicians of this State, however,
anxious to evade the tariff question
and tax question, are trying again,
in the same old way, to hide be-
hind a false p~retence. Repudiated
by the voters of all parties and
trusted by none, standing for no
great principle, representing Moth
ing and believing in nothing,
vacillating between covert sham
and open fraud, the political COR
morants are confronted with an
indignant revolt. They dare not
face the issue, and they can not
dodge.

Progressives Triumph
In Oklahoma.

Oklahoma Democrats set the pace
which may well BIT followed by Demo-
Gratis OF other states. While Wilson
and Clark each wanted to secure the
solid support of Oklahoma, the friends
of each candidate are perfectly salts
fed with the result.
Harmon, the candidate Of the reac-
tionaries, never had q loolk-in.
The Oklahoma delegation win go to
the convention harmoniously divided
between Wilson and Clark. and when
It is seen that one of the two men Is
out Of the running and has no chance,
then the whole delegation will support
the candidate having the chance of
securing the nomination.
While such an arrangement may not
prevail in other states, where the peo-
pie express their choice for either
Wilson or Clark. all would, IL given
the opportunity, rather have the dele
cations divided in the support of pro-
gressive candidates than to have the
choice conferred on reactionary.
This is a day of progressive democ-
racy. Progressive leaders have piloted
the party out Of the wilderness and
made the lower house of congress
Democratic. It is the progressive poll
cies of the party which have caught
the floating vote, and unless q pro-
gressive is nominated at the conven-
ton the party will not have a ghost
of chance In the November election.
To nominate Harmon would simply
mean another Judge Parker defeat. He
exactly suits Wall street and Tam
many Hall, and IL they can get such q
han for president. it does not matter

who can lead the party to victory.
Gradually the people are being
given more power in eur government,
and the right to express your choice
for the Democratic nomination for
president is one that should be used to
best advantage. Because the delegates
are pledged to support the choice Of
Florida voters is no sign that care in
choosing the delegates is not needed.
There is a possibility OF Florida's
choice not getting the nomination, and
we want for delegates men who will
support the strongest progressive can
didate.

they yield no practical results for the
