that there is such a thing as bill OF

are perfectly willing and anxious to
suspend all civil rights, do away with
juries and judges and substitute court

Il don't believe in prosecuting citizens
who are loyal and innocent. That is not
Democracy. Instead of arraying section
against section, class against class and
nationality against nationality, we Dem

Germany or Sweden, IN Norway or in

had no official notice Of any app ointment
and that in view Of the fact that he was
Postmaster, he considered himself out
of politics Tie fourth man was not at
home and as he is a Postmaster also,
he, no doubt, will take no active interest
in politics. These were the only men
we could reach by telephone so OF the
others we cannot speak but it seems quite
apparent that none Of those interviewed
will do any political work for the Burn
quist ticket. How many of the other
"vice-presjdents" will not serve we do
not know, but we feel quite confident
that the Burnquist committee for Njeollet
County is not quite as formidable as the
uninitjated might be tempted to believe.
