Foregoing is ticket that will be
put into the field in the 1916 primary
campaign, if reports eminating from
Minot following a recent conference
of political headlights in that city can
be taken as gospel.
Rather interesting features are in
cluded in the makeup of this ticket,
which is to be put forth as the ticket
of the progressive faction-for tits
said some are still interested in main
tanning a bit of factionalism within
the Republican party.
Burdick's Selection
4. The selection of Mr.. Burdick as the
candidate for governor is not unex-
pected. It has been known since his
defeat last year, that Mr.. Burdick was
anxious to take another fling at the
job, and his friends have seemingly
been just as anxious to put him to the
front.
In the selection of Thomas Hall, of
Bismarck, as the candidate for United
States Senator, in opposition to Por-
ter J. McCumber and Governor L. B.
Hanna, complications are readily
seen, as P. D. Norton, congressman OF
the Third district, is said to have
marked senatofial aspirations, and
surely no one is now questioning Mr.
Norton's qualifications as candidate
upon the platform that it is probable
). that the conferees will advocate.
. Make Peace With Carl.
In the Endorsement of Carl Jorgen.
son, for state auditor, is another inter.
esting feature as there are many with.
2.in the faction who have not been right
keen on Carl for the past few.nonths
i Ri iittvnnay be case 1 letting ."by.
be bygones," particularly il
sswstisw Of a series, of political attacks
that have been leveled at both Mr.
Hall and Mr.. Jorgenson in the near vi
cinity of the state capitol building
recently.
The endorsement of Mr.. Taylor tx
succeed himself, for the fourth term
lis aimed at clearing the field for MIR
Burdick, for Mr.. Taylor is said to hav'
possessed more or less ambitions fo1
the governrship.
Advance Hort as State Candidate
J. L. Hort, or Reeder, is nev
candidate far state honors. Mr.. Hjor
however, isn't stranger, as he ha
served several terms in the state leg
islature, and has been more or les
prominent in legislative matters.
John Stems endorsement for tn
state treasurship arises from the fac
that he is now serving his first term
and isn't particularly Objectionable t
those fostering the movement.
Langer's Object Attained.
In the announcement that William
LANCER likely will be the candidat
for lieutenant governor, one sees tn
result of Mr.. Langer's activity in MOI
ton county against the blind piggers
His candidacy for the attorney gene1
alship isn't unexpected-not in tn
least.
Miss Minnie Nelson has been pu
of forth for the office of state superir
tendent + public instruction quite fri
quently during the past few years
and just as frequently she has turne
it down. ~
