A letter from Mr.. J. S. Gogin

In your issue OF January 2Sth, ap-
peared an editorial regarding my re-
cent address at Fargo and from which
I quote the following: "He has the
fault of using names that are quite
plain And as this is a misleading
and Intentionally harmful attack upon
me l claim the right to space in the
same publication for a brief answer
to that attack a correct and complete
reproduction of this answer. In the
first place one of the fundamental or
cardinal principles of our government
is that all men are created free and
equal, and a ban is placed upon
"titles' for American citizens. There
fore under those principles the ten
dency of certain foreign born citizens
to pay reverence to any and all distin-
gushing titles of wealth or position
thereby demeaning themselves, is, to
say the least, un-American. In the
second place | am not attacking indi-
viduals, but policies and resultant
conditions in my public ~utterances,
and have not at any time or place
used improper or unearned descriptive
designations. Nothing so improper or
unearned as those of "hayseed' or
''mossback' SO frequently applied to
men of my industrial calling and
against the use of which your publica-
ton has never made an editorial pro-
test. In the third place l am not
responsible for the shortcomings or
the evil doings of other men. l am
responsible to the Creator and in a
measure to humanity for whatever of
gifts or abilities l may be endowed,
and to Him and it only do l hold my
self responsible and until l get evil
dence of His or its disapprovaI of my
public acts or utterances no kind of
attack by lesser atoms can possibly
harm or affect me.
Yours for honesty and fair play to-
ward all men. -.nsa.s'

According to a Legislative re-appor-
comment plan which provides for the
cistricting of the state into thirty
eight legislative districts Cavalier
county would be located in the Four
teenth Legislative district and be en-
titled to one state senator and two
representatives. Under the plan there
would be only t~hirty-eight state
senators and eighty-six representa-
tives, and it mean that the legislative
representation of the state would be
cut down to the extent of one-third of
what it comprises at the present time.
The general opinion seems to be it
has of late years grown unwieldy.
