The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1918-04-11

Hon. P. D. Norton, CONGRESSMAN
from the Third district, was tIrneti
down for endorsement at the hands
OF the Nonpartisan convention in Far
60 last week. The Times Record is
sorry this action was taken by the
league, because Congressman Norton
has been right in line for the apricul-
turists of the northwest and has we'll
represented the people of North Da-
kota all the time. He was refused en-
dorsement through the work in the
convention of senator from either
Stark or Morton counties who had a
grievance against the congressman.
so the convention allowed personal
prejudice instead of reason to dictate
the nomination Of Mr.. J. H. Sinclair
OF kenmare, prominent hns;noes
man OF that city and democrat has
oeen nominated by the league in Mr..
Norton's place. Mr.. Sinclair is a fine
man IN every particular, although We
thlnk ne is lined up with the wrong
crowd. He has gotten himself in had
company. We have known Jim Sinclair
Tor many years, have found him to he
honest and reliable and the fact that
ne IS democrat should not hurt him
a q: the company man keeps
IS bound to have some impression on
nim. He will run as a republican
which is manifestly unfair because in
republican North Dakota Democrat
stands slim chance for election r.

IN its history will have two Democras

should be fixed SO that Democrat
who has registered as such with the
;s sss should be compelled to run

ilcan as he chooses. It is not =

Sales Of war-saving stamps have
run as high as $3,O00,O00 day. This
amount provides the treasury with
about one-tenth of the entire amount
now being expended by the nation for
the war: While $3,O00,000 is only 8
cents a day for every man, woman and
child in the country, the entire cost of
the war is but 80 cents per capita a

BE KINDLY IN CRITICISM

1t is easy to criticize. We as peo-
pie are too prone to criticize those in
authority. We have talked liberty
and independence so long it has fos-
tered a habit of pointing out imagined
faults in others. No administration,
whether Of city, state or nation, is
perfect. Mistakes will be made be-
cause those in authority are only hu-
man beings. But we have formed the
habit Of listening to. the uniformed,
then Of criticizing without accompany
ing the criticism with a remedy for
the fault or mistake criticized. judy
ing from many newspaper articles.
the administration at Washington is
being vehemently criticized by many
who are not in position to make in
telligent criticism. No man and no
administration should take the posi-
ton that they or the administration
OF which they are a part are above
criticism. This would not do at all.
During the war, however, the burden
is heavy; the responsibility great. If
one can not commend, he can refrain
from destructive criticism. And. too,
we can praise as intelligently as we
can condemn. Wouldn't this old
world become more delightful if all
criticism could be transformed into
praise? Wonder if we can not all. by
. little kindly forethought, form the
habit Of pressing more and condemn
ingless?

SOMEBODY outside telling you what a
very fine city Valley City iss and what
a great location we have for more

splendid train service, the best school
system in the state paying and first

the best location in the state for fac
tories, fine, cultured people and has
one of the best gas plants in, the
northwest, which is one of the great
assets of any city and is the house,

The Democrats have selected S. ].
Doyle as their candidate for governor.
Mr.. Doyle is the present U. S. mar
shall and the man the league has been
trying to get President Wilson to let
out Of his job because he has been
placing his official hand heavily on
the shoulders of those who have been
spouting German propaganda around
the state and in various ways hamp-
ering the government. If may be
that some Republican will enter the
race to contest with Gov. Frazier for
the nomination in June and beat him
out but if he does not, S. J. Doyle
will be the democratic nominee and a
good one at that, one North Dako-
ia man would not have to turn his
head and blush with shame when away
from home and he is asked "what
state do you come FROM" Down east
North Dakota is called the boob state
with no limit but the blue sky. If we
gave got to have a democratic Cover
nor, 5. J. Doyle is 100 per cent right.

Tn one of the best games seen on the Academy campus in many years the Stonington High School baseball team, who triumphed over the Acade- my and who won the Southern Divi- sion championship, in the Interschol- astic League, trimmed the Bartlett School team of Webster in a close game Saturday afternoon by the Score of 4 to 0. The game was hot con- test from start to finish.
 The Massachusetts boys came down strong and confident of victory, but were sent back with the small end of the score Massey and Evans both pitched superb ball, but Massey had a shade on his opponent. He held the upstate boys to three scattered hits and struck out eleven. Hederman, the Webster shortstop, got two nice bingles and also played stellar game on short making many good stops. Evans, the Webster twirler allowed s scattered hits, and struck out nine men, making a total of 35 strikeouts in three games.
 Webster tried hard throughout the game to even up the score but the best they could do was to hit out weak flies and take a few healthy swings. The Stonington team is a wonderful hitting team, but credit should be given to Meek. the Acade- my pitcher, who held them scoreless and hitless for eight innings in Ston- ington, but was taken out in the ninth inning after the first man got a scratch hit, but the Webster pitcher was a little cratic at times and t<ss accounts for the four runs being SCOT ed on him. Both teams played a good fielding game.
 Umpire Snow of Putnam held the indicator and his work was satis- factory to both sides. He was right there in every close play. A fair sized crowd of rooters from Stonington and Webster were at the game to cheer | their teams.
