HANNA OR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

There's no use of longer trying
to keep secret the fact that Nc
Cumber and Hanna are rival can
didates for U. S. Senator from
this state, or that the contest be-
tween them will be battle royal,
1t is not our fight, to be sure, and
yet members of minority party
have rights as we'll as those of a
majority party, and also are con-
cerned as to who shall represent
us at Washington.
AS between these two men. if
either of them wins the. nomina-
ton and election, the Times pre-
Efers it should be fanna, and for
two reasons: First, because Nc
Cumber will have already served
US for eighteen long years, when
his present term expires, and
that is long enough for any man
to hold the office. Second, Hanna
is a real North Dakotan, while
McCumber no longer is one. He
is not here enough of his time Of
recent years to understand the
states needs. Why should we go.

DEFENDANTS APPEAL

Indianapolis, Ind, April 6. =
Preparations are being made to-
night by attorneys for the defense
for an appeal from the verdict by
the jury in the Terre Haute fraud
cases. The verdict found Mayor
Dom M. Roberts of Terre Haute
and all except two of the other 26
defendants guilty. The defendants
returned to their homes tonight
They will come to indianapolis
Monday for sentence by Judge
Anderson. Motions for new
trial will be filed within a couple
of days, for the majority, if not
all of the defendants. 1t was es-
timated tonight at the trial that
the investigation which preceded
it cost the government approx
mately $4,000.

sofa, California, or anywhere else
to find a man to represent US in
the U. S. Senate?
Of course, McCumber still
claims to be North Dakotan,
and he formerly was. But for the
past several years at least while
the editor of the Times has been
a resident of Wahpeton, he has
never seen McCumber here once,
and in all that time he is report
ed to have slipped into the town
just twice, and then only for a
few hours. Now that he wants to
run for another six-year term of
office. he sends word that he ex-
poets to be here to spend part
of the summer. In two years he
has not been in Wahpeton, the
city he now claims as his home,
as much as week all together.
Does that make him resident of
North Dakota?
1t is true that during the past
few years much of his time has
been spent in Congress; but even
when not engaged at Washington
he has spent his time elsewhere.
He didn't even come here to vote
last fall, when his party elected a
governor and all other state Of
ficers. But now that he wants an
other term of office himself he is
coming here to stop for short
time and claim a residence.
On the other hand Hanna is a
real North Dakotan, and pays a
lot of taxes in the state, and he
votes in the state at every cleo
ton. He is here and knows what
the state needs. He has twice
served as a Congressman from
the state, and is now serving his
second term as its Governor, and
is therefore capable of represent
ing the state, while McCumber by
not being here he is a stranger to
its needs. The Offices he has held
make Hanna a much better quail
flied person to represent the
state in the U. S. Senate than
McCumber was when he was first
sent to Washington, or at any
other time.
OF course McCumber's benefic-
iaries here do not want him de-
fcated. OF course not. Why should
they, for his remaining there will
continue to benefit them person.
ally. But how about the rest of
the Republicans, as we'll as the
Democrats?
Last fall Senator McCumb5r
didn't make a single speech in
the state for Hanna and the rest
of the Republican ticket, and he
didn't even come here to vote fol
them. Yet they were elected with
out him, and now he wants Han
na turned down for his own per-
sonal benefit. When a man gets
so far along that he claims SC
much for himself and does moth
ing in return for other leading
Republicans of the state, it is higl
time to let him know that he is
only one of the people himselt
and that others have equal rights
with him.
If we must have Hanna or Nc
Cumber to vote and talk for us il
the U. S. Senate let it be Hanna
who still feels that he owes the
people something for the honors
they have given him.
