( CONGRESSMAN FUTILE.
Calling Col. w. p. Tuttle congress.
man at this time may be a little prev
ious, but we might. as we'll get accus-
tened to it, for sooner or later, about
this time the November election votes
are counted we will surely have 10
say Congressman Tuttle.
The Colonel is in the city today get
ting acquainted with what few people
there are here whom he has not prev
iously met and incidentally looking
after his land interests here, the old
Emory ranch about nine miles north
east of the city, which he has owned
several years.
The Colonel never was a pessimistic
cuss, even defeat, and naturally the
result Of the primary election is look
ing mighty good to him. He is con.
fident that the people, now that they
are better acquainted with him and
also his opponent will do the square
thing and give him the nomination.
Alter the last election Col. futile

loads of Stark county people will
leave for Williston via Schafer in the
interest of L. A. Simpsons candidacy
for congress from the Third District.
rully forty people will go on the trip
which is to cover three days. Bel
field, Gladstone, Taylor and Richard
ton, as we'll as Dickinson, will be rep
resented in this overland trip. After
the Willisto1 trip, possibly about the
middle of June, a delegation of some
seventyfive people will accompany
Mr.. Simpson to Mandan, where he
will deliver an address.
The Dickinson attorney returned
the first of the week from southern
Morton county, where he delivered
several addresses aid was most cor
daily received. 1t is becoming more!
and more apparent every day thatsthe
great majority Of the voters Of the
district are for L. A. Simpson for
Congress- Letters r pouring in on
every train a~ttesting to this fact. Even
in Adams county, the home Of Con-
gresham Norton, Mr.. Simpson will
receive a big vote at the primaries
on June 24th.-Dickinson Press.
PENNSYLVANIA PRIMARY
The primaries in the State Of
Pennsylvania were held on Tuesday.
They show that while the tide which
has been running strongly against the
progressive party is still running In
that adverse direction it has begun to
run strongly with the republicans.
Here was a political %":cure-all" as a
statewide primary, tried for the first
time in a state which was boss ridden.
The Statewide" primary was sup
posed to dethro1e the boss, put the
"pee.pul" in control and nominate
only the representatives of better
things in government It was design
ed, above all things, to drive Senator
Penrose out Of the republican party.
At the primary Tuesday Mr.. Penrose
and an independent, we'll disposed re-
publican opponent made the race, and
Senator Penrose won by q majority
Of more than 175,O0O. Now, this Is
the state which went for Mr.. Roose.
welt in 1912, leaving Mr.. Taft a bad
third. In the great city Of Philadel-
phia,. which gave Mr.. Roosevelt $4,000
votes that year, only about 10000 pro-
gressives went to the polls. Where
we're the others? rs liz
OF great encouragement to the ma.
tional administration is the success of
Mr.. A. Mitchell Palmer who ran as a
representative of President Wilson
and his policy against Henry Budd and
v G easily the democratic nomination
for the Senate.
It Is possible that the contest be-
tween Mr.. Penrose, republican; Mr..
Palmer, democrat, and Mr. Pinchot,
progressive, for the Senatorship may
develop q close and exciting race, but
we do not think SO. We doubt that
Mr.. Pinchot will be- able to show
enough strength to defeat Mr.. Penrose
and allow Mr.. Palmer to "slip IN
