An Open Letter

70 the Ptogres sives Of Wisconsin,:
The Progressive Republicans OF
North Dakota have set the pace and
pointed the way out of the dilemma
in which the Republican party has
been place by the System which
attempts TO manipulate i to serve
Big Business.
The question to be determined by
the next election is 'Shall the will
of The people be the law Of the land $
or shall the System rule the nation?
There is but one candidate fof
President whose position on this
overshadowing question is positive
w known and clearly and unequal Y
stated. Whenever the name Of
Robert LaF'olette is seen or heard
it awakens a sense of patriotic de-
votion to the principle ard un-
bounded faith in the people. His
doctrine of Representative Govern
ment, resulting in the greatest good
to the greatest number, is not re-
cent discovery, OPPORTUNITY promul-
gated to m eet popular clamor; it
is sthe fundamental progressivism
which others have seen fit to adopt
theoretically, but which he alone,
of the national leaders, has success
fully embodied lin practical and
effective statutes.
Do not let the issues become
clouded by misrepresentation. Go
to the polls on April End and vote
for LaFollette and LaFollette dele
gates. The larger his majority the
surer and earlier will there be an
end to Ballingerism, Lorimerism
and pork barrel legislation.s 4

SELECT ONLY GOOD MEN

On NEXT Tuesday the voters
of Wash burn will be cal led upon
to elect new set Of officers for
the city and we believe that it is
now time that the voters should
interest themselves to the ex
tent of selecting only the best
men for these Offices.
In the past there has been
rather an Indifferent feeling a
mong the voters and the re suit
has been that in several in
stances men have been selected
who were wholly unfit to dis
charge the duties of the office to
which they have been elected.
This has not been the general
case for since the city was in
corporatad we have had men
OH the council and in office who
have Served faithfully and
have conducted the city bust
ness in a creditable manner.
We believe the time has passed
wherin any certain clique of fac
ton should attempt to dictate or
CONTROL the policies under which
the city affairs should be con-
Quoted. Factionalism and per-
sonal animosity should be thrown
to the winds and the voters
should unite in selecting men to
office who have the interests OF
the city at heart and the bust
ness ability to administer the
duties required of them in a
manner which will tend to work
tremendously with the develop
ment and betterment of the
city. Men who are tied down to
party rules or have made
promises to certain factions can
not DO this as well as the one
who is free to act as his best
judgement directs him.
Several of the men seeking
Office this spring have good bust
ness judgment and are capable
of conducting the duties of their
office as it should be. On the
other hand there are others who
are wholly unfit for the positions
they seek.
The voter, when called upon
to cast his ballot, shoulds mea'
sure up each candidate as to
his ability and honesty of pur-
pose and then cast his ballot &C.
cordingly. Where the voters
