of Burdick Followers
In the Fall Is a Joke

Cooperstown, N. D., July 1. "It
seems to me that some people are as
suming a great deal when they assert
the supporters of Burdick will not vote
for Governor Hanna at the fall elec-
tion," said a we'll known local re-.
publican here today to The Forum

insurgent republican," continued the
speaker, "and with the exception of
governor for six years, never voted

date. This year 1 supported Burdick
not only by my vote but got out and

North Dakota Bankers
Holding Annual Meet
at Williston TO-DAY

williston, N. D., July 1.-With over
200 bankers from all sections Of North
Dakota in attendance, the North Da-
kota State Bankers association began
its two days session here this morning.
There are nineteen bankers from the
twin cities and Duluth in attendance.
One Of the big features Of the meet
ing will be the annual banquet this

a number Of interesting addresses.
Following the convention many of
the bankers will take an excursion trip

1 was for Buchanan. He was defeat
ed and Johnson was again put up.
Once more / voted for Burke. Two
years ago Hanna won the nomination
for governor and although I had sup
ported Buchanan, I recognized Han
mas capabilities and voted for him in
the fall
II think he has made an excellent
governor and is entitled to the vote Of
every man who claims to be a repub-
lican and he shall certainly receive
my vote this fall. I have heard doz-
ems Of other ScandinaVians and insur
gent republicans express the same
view, and all this talk about an in
surgent bolt is joke.
There may be some of the bitterest
insurgents who may wish to bolt but
their number will be small land the
rank and file Of the Burdick support
ers will be as enthusiastic in their eff
forts to elect Hanna this fall as the
original boosters of the governor"
In conversation with many other
progressive republicans OF Griggs
county, it is found the sentiment ex-
pressed by the man quoted in the fore
going is general Griggs county gave
Hanna a majority Of it's votes. The
voters felt that he had given the state
a good administration, that his in
tentions were all right and that he
had used good judgment in the selec-
ton of competent appointees who were
efficient. He will get an overwhelming
majority in November in this county
and there won't be two dozen repub-
licans found supporting the democratic
nominee.
