the candidate shall have the job for
which he has asked them.

the candidate shall have the job for
which he has asked them.
No man can lift himself up by. his
bootstraps. He cannot decide upon
what office he aspires to fill and go
and take it. Not on your life he
can't. He asks the people and it is
within their power and them alone
to say whether that man shall or
shall not have the office he seeks. The
office belongs to the people and they
are the judges. And when they hire
that man, who in campaign parlance
is "candidate," they expect him to
work for their interests the same as
the camp boss expects his newly
hired man to work for the company
he represents.
There isn't a merchant nor a
banker nor a business man of any
kind in Bemidji who would retain a
dishonest employee nor one not ca
pable of performing the services for
which he was paid. Nor is there any
in this line but who reserves the
right at all times to know what his
employees are doing.
1t is this, then, in a nutshell that
is the cause of what many are prone
to term reform" in public affairs.
The people have arrived at the point
where they are asking what their
employees are doing, what they have
DONE They are facing increased
taxation, rising expense in all direc-
lions and they are wondering what
can be done to prevent further in
crease and give them a chance to
catch their breath, as it were.
It is in times like these that the
prudent business man practices econ
omy, the good housewife watches
more closely the grocery and other
domestic bills, and needless expense
and wanton waste are feeling the
pruning knife.
And the taxpayers are inquiring
and watching public expense and if
the inquiry discloses dishonesty on
the part Of their public employees
they are going to "can" them just
like any other business man would
do to a dishonest employe.
REFORM" Call it what you will.
