For National Committeeman

10 the Democrats of North Dakota.
Having received the endorsement OF
my own county and being urged by the
democratic state press association, | be-
came candidate for national co#-
mitteeman. I would like your support
at the March 18th, primary for this
position, basing my claim on my record
as democrat and citizen of the state
for 81 years. I defeated Jud La oure
for the senate in 1884 and the combi-
nation, the old crowd, defeated me.
Was superintendent of school work IN
the northern part of the territory in
l887-8-9, and organized the present
state educational association. Was a
delegate to the nati,nal convention in
1896 and helped nominate Bryan. State
oil inspee tor 19O6-1O. Was president of
the state press association in 1905 6 Z,
and now president of the democratic
press association Have been active in
democratic politics since my first vote,
for Tilden, in 1876. Have conducted a
democratic paper for a third of a
century, now conducting the oldest
democratic paper in the state and at
times the only democratic paper. I do
not think the opposition will claim that
I am incapable of filling the position,
would be unfair, or have at any time
been other than democrat. If elected
I will not be candidate for any federal
position. 1t these things sufficiently
vouch for me, I would be pleased to
have your support
Very truly yours,

10 the Democrats Of North Dakota:
In view of the fact that North Dakota
democracy is not ret'resented IN congress,
the position Of national committeeman
will be a very important one in the event
of democratic victory at the polls next
November. The measure of the claim
on the suffrage of the democrats at the
primary in March must be the good of
the party. Personal ambition, however
laudahle must be a secondary considera-
ton. | expect support from my fellow
democrats solely on the ground that |
am compel ent to fill the position, not
because of wealth or lack of wealth. |
have been identified with the demo-
cratic party ever since its organization
in this state. ( invite honest criticism
and honest comparison on my record,
and shall appreciate your vote and in
huence at the March primary. Should
| be so fortunate as to be chosen to till
this position, assure you that the
federal patronage of this state shall be-
long to the democrats OF the state, and
that | will not have any personl candi-
date for any position
