By the time this issue of the Rec.
ord is printed the anti-Towrieyites
will have held their state convention
and the personnel of their ticket
will be known.
The editor of this paper has firmly
believed that VIM. LANCER, the pres,

Ia is in the best position to make a
successful race. His election wou:;.
mean that carpetbagging graftcrs
imported from the four corners of the
earth to fight and share in the spoils
of the sociaistic conquest would be
made mighty hard to catch. On the
other hand those thousands of North
Dakota voters that want to find out
what state-owned mills and elevators
will do for them, will be assured that
their venture in state ownership will
have the fairest trial possible. Lam
ger stands for the elimination of pol
itics in control of these ventures. He
is out four-square against the policy
of so framing the laws that the gov
ernor is the supreme arbter of the
fate Of the state. In other words he
advocates decentralization of the vast
power now delegated to one man as
governor. That means the industrial
commission law must go land some
thing more practical take it's place.
The Bank of North Dakota is an
other cancerous growth on the body

There is some merit in a rural cred

rate, but there is no excuse for such
political weapon as the combined pub
lie finances of this state make in the
hands of the manager of the Bank of
North Dakota.
And so it is that we have hoped

From time to time we are surprised
