Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am a young girl 90 years Of age
and have been keeping company for
some time with a man % years old.
He is engaged to another girl, but still
desires to continue his visit, as usual,
to me- I have no objections to his
coming, but il does not seem quite
fair to the other girl. Would you ad-
wise me to continue keeping company
with him? ANXIOUS
He certainly has no right to con-
tinue' visiting you if he is engaged to
another girl. 1t is not fair to her nor
to Yourself.

CRAWFORD SUPPORTS
RURAL CREDITS BILL

The voters will not forget that
Senator Crawford, who is a promi
nent member of the Senate commit
tee having in charge the rural credits
bill, which will enable formers to
borrow money on long time at low
rates of interest, is deeply interested
in the passage of that measure, which
means so much to every farmer in
the state, and he is pledged to active
ly support the bill.
Senator Crawford's stand on the
rural credits bill is in line with his
efforts to amend the currency bill SO
as to permit federal banks to dis
count farmers long time notes, and
thus secure to them one of the chief
benefits of the new currency law, and
he was largely instrumental in secur-
ing that amendment. These measures
conduce greatly to The welfare of the
agricultural interests of the whole
state. Farmers, vote for Senator
Crawford.

STEPHENS RECORD

At the outside of this campaign,

lar letter mailed to the voters of the

running on his record. In response
to his invitation, we have been en-
deavoring through the columns of
this paper, as faithfully as we could,
to place before the people that record
Recently Mr.. Stephens delivered a
speech at Agar. 1t would appear
from the report of same reproduced
with substantial accuracy" by his
organ, the Daily Dakotan, that he
tried to defend himself at some
length from the $50. called charges"

Stephens alone has called them
Charges we have not. No" Charges
have been made or published We
simply set out his record for the peo-
pie to see, and the gentleman meeting
it face to face was so frightened that
he Immediately began to explain and
defend.
Mr.. Stephens maintained his right
Ito accept any body for his client who
wished to retain him provided he was
asked to do nothing dishonorable. %
In other words he admits his record
and attempts to justify his candidacy
in spite of it. The people reserve the
right to say whether his employment
and affiliations have rendered him a
desirable persen to make their laws.
The record shows that he is regul-
arly retained for great railroad cor
poration by the seductive free rail-
road pass; that he has been the lob
byist for, lent his legislative in
tiuence to, the railway and other
special interest corporations; that his
influence eXerted in behalf of these
special interests has been adverse to
the interests of the whole body of the
people. The people may we'll ques-
tion whether he is not of the class
referred to in the plank of the Repub-
