IN this locality. we note with.
pride that our friend MT. v. R.
Lowell of Fargo, candidate for
congress on the Democratic
ticket, is a favorite among a
large number of leading Republi

are both sure winners.
We are glad to say that Mr..

senator in the 37th district, has
a strong hold in this locality.
Henry Herbralson has filed
homestead entry on one hundred

on the place and Henry will move
in and join the Bachelors club

We are facing the 5th Of November
issues Of momsntous importance to

our economic life be determined-shall
our government continue to be domi-

1t was similar issue ffty-two years
ago, when there arose from out Of Ilt-
nois . new leader. who held human
rights to be greater than property
rights. whose thoughts were not the
old thoughts, whose vision Of justice
had not been clouded by association

man from the outside, from the ranks
Of the people. in sympathy with their

As son Of the soldier who fought
to uphold the principles for which
Abraham Lincoln stood and az a son
Of q Republican president can see
only one duty for myself-to give
heartily my influence and my vote for

Verify, believe that the principles
for which Woodrow Wilson 10 fighting
are the principles for which my father

the standards Of courage, conscience

Cotton thread pays an import duty

however, that practically all the CAPT

Convention Work in Afternoon.

Recess has brought forth new de-
velopments with regard to the home
stead plank of the platform, this be-
ing the only plank about which Sc
rious concern has been felt by those
disposed to harmony.
1t is believed now that a homestead
plank will be submitted to the conven-
ton which will give adequate encour-
agement to the homesteading cause,
prove satisfactory to the sugar-plant-
ing interests and provide a compre-
hensive and satisfactory solution of
the question. Those who have been
working on the problem since the ad.
journment of the morning session are
hopeful that when the homestead
plank is laid before the convention it
will not have to be amended excepting
perhaps in some subordinate DEATHS.
To bring about the compromise. here
sketched, the platform committee will
consist of twos members from each
district and one at large, making it a
committee of thirteen instead of sew
