L. A. SIMPSON.

Theefirst thing that eonstfitdents must
consider in . candidate especially for

these it is a pretty safe bet, that when
he is elected to office that he will not
to be found wanting4ana in the person
of Hon. Leslie A. Simpson Of Dickin-
son, the voters of the ThirdGCongress-
ional District have such, candidate.
That. Leslie Simpson haasl proven beyond
a doubt to be a mal3p6isssseeaslsed.,of re-
markable ability, his sixteen years ex-
perience in the legislative halls of the
state and his successful career as a
brilliant lawyer, is onlysotniss criterion to
go by, and this alone is sufficient to
place him at the head Of the list Of can
didates nowi in the field, as the, most able
and reliable. man for congressman for
the Third district. He is . man, who,
if elected, will represent the people,
because he is one Of them and knows

The republican and democratic state
and county petitions have all been filed
with the secretary of state or county
auditor and we publish the list in this
issue. This primary is a free for all
and each will have an equal right in
getting on the ballot if he is deserving
of the honor. The democrats will have
a complete state and county ticket as
well as the republicans before the fall
election. The, voters will have plenty
of material to pick from. We believe
among them there will be found men
who are economical and who would
help cut the expenses of the county.
There is no question but that the taxes
are getting too high for the last eight
years and we do not wonder that there
is general dissatisfaction over the
county. The Leader stated two years
ago that it was up to the voters to put
in office men who keep the county's
best interest in mind. There are men
on the ticket who will do this work as
it should be and serve all alike. 1t
should make very little difference what
locality these men are from; if they are
the right men they will attend strictly
to their office. They are the only kind
of men wanted. We have had ex-
perience with these general good fell
lows who have travelled On their popu-
larity, but we do not consider them the
best officers in doing the work as it
ought to be done. It was stated in the
Leader two years ago that the greater
number Of the taxpayers in Washburn'
were not supporting every man who
wSs.up from Washburn.! We want the
right man in the right place. A good
many are tired Of hearing about the
s.Washburn gang. If all would keep
in mind the man and, not the locality.
this howl would soon be forgotten, We
believe the majority Of the people of
Washbur:n have always treated the
outside candidates right and that they
viii do so again at the coming election.
Those men who are in Office and have
been found to be true and faithful SER
wants of the taxpayers should be re-
tanned, the others will have to blame
themselves if the voters see fit to put
others in their places.

A few days ago we were informed
that Nuessle would have his chambers
at Washburn if 'elected. Next we hear
from Bismarck that he made the same
promise there. No doubt he has also
made this promise to McClusky, Steele
and Linton. He is long on promises and
is always ready to play on both sides.
We believe when the campaign is over
he will establish his chambers in Mis-
soula, Montana.

will never know that he was even in

Bismarck State: Advance agents
have arrived in nearly every portion Of
the state to whisper that Louis B.
Hanna, candidate for governor, is COM
ing with all the speed possible. They
also whispered that when Hanna comes
he will get all the snares fixed up and
that his smile will melt that which has
been scummed over by early frost.
Perhaps, really, after all, Mr.. Hanna
merely wants to be Tin at the death.
