IT "the republican party is the war
party" as Chairman West of the
state central committee correctly
said, those congressman who voted
against the war resolution, or virtu-
ally voted against fighting back when
Germany was making war upon U.S.
voted against the historic tradition
and record of their party as the war
party.
They have therefore put the voters
OF their party in disagreeable d1-
lemma in the congressional election.
The usual good working rule is for
republicans to vote the straight ticket.
But there is going to be much
searching of the individual conscience
this year in cases where the candi-
date of the war party has the unfor-
tunate record of having voted against
that party tradition, and is opposed
by candidate whose war record and
attitude are correct
1t is not the fault of the party or of
the voters that it should be so; it is
a liability deliberately incurred by the
candidate himself, who chose to in
vest the possibilities of home district
discomfort with an unpoularity of
the war
The plain hard facts are that the
usual good rule of party regularity
will lose some of its customary force
this year, even with many who have
been accustomed to abide by it

SUBSTITUTION OF
THE LARGE HARD
COAL VARIETIES
URGED BY BAKER

Calling attention to the fact that
there is a distinct shortage Of nut
size OF anthracite and an accumula-
tion of stove and egg varieties at
the docks, L P. Baker, fuel admins
sstrator for North Dakota. advises
the dealers to substitute, so far as
they can, the larger varieties.
objection is frequently made that
: the stove and egg sizes of anthracite
are unsuited for consumption in base
burners" says Captain Baker.
Those sizes of anthracite can be
readily broken with a hammer or
other convenient tool and made
available for use in such stoves. I'm
der present conditions, with the
movement of anthracite, eastern BIZ

western part of the state have re-
quired unusual tonnages of eastern
coal because OF the inability of
small neighboring wagon mines to
provide the usual supplies of Ignite.

outstanding orders for nut anthra
cite is unwilling to accept substitu-
tion of stove or egg for nut anthra-
