and their boosters manage to get
the editors goats-individually
and collectively. They make the
editors pull their chestnuts out of
the tire-and lose subscribers and
advertisers for championing the
cause of men instead Of principles
and sometimes such men!
If John Smith was seeking
$1,000 job from corporation to
have charge of some department
or to do clerical work "a mere
passing mention might be made of
the atfair--if Smith and the pencil
pusher happened to be good
friends. But if JOHN Smith de-
cides he wants some county office
that pays S2,OOO-a position that
may not require the qualifications.
needed for corporation job
then the editor tears his neither
garments and Immediately covers
himself with glory and perspi-
ration in his excited efforts to land
this place for his friend Smith. If
Smith doesn't happen to be his
friend it's all right, as long as
Smith is even a friend of friend
of the editor. He not only extolls
Smith-but he devotes columns
in telling about the way Smiths
opponent robbed widows and Or
phans and beat his wife and starv-
ed his children.
If the job-instead of being a
country affair-should be either u
state or a national one-lhe editor
yells all the louder-in increased
ratio as to the prominence of the
position sought.

1t is too much perhaps to hope
that some day candidates for office
will get what publicity they pay
for-and at the same rate as the
grocer or the dry goods merchant
and that they will get no more
and no cheaper.
| It may also be too much to hope
that-some day political dis
cussions will be confined to q
digni6ed discussion of principles
with occasional but brief mention
of the personnel OF the candidates.
| Years ago the editors--the
secular chaps cut out religious
discussions. This eliminated a lot
of bitterness, and prevented
ructions and crimes. There may
come time when a similar action
will be taken in politics.
| If North Dakota editors would
devote the same amount of space
they give to the political situation
to boosting the state if they
would expend the same energy in
securing material for. special
features and convincing advertisers
of the advantages Of publicity
the state and the editors would
both be better of-and the
bloo,nin' politicians would still get
their jobs just the same.
Another campaign-the state
primaries will soon be on. The
Forum doesn't believe in the boy
colt eitherin in theory or in practice
but it does believe in temperance
and moderation. Why wouldn't
| it be good plan for the editors to
decide right now to give mp less TO
politics and more to something
Of real merritt
| While tits not the period for
New Years resolutions the edi-
tors might resolve to phil fewer
chestnuts out Of the fire to be
less easy.
The readers might appreciate
the change. Pnblicity agents and
managers for politicians might also
hare togo 70 work.
