A REPRESENTATIVE TICKET

A most excellent reason why Wolf Point should solid
" support the ticket we helped to nominate is that we have
a number Of local men on that ticket. We have an excel
lent prospect of a Congressman, MI. McCusker, from our
own town and should give him the endorsement of a splen-
did home vote. We have a candidate for state represen-
tative, Bert }. Lynn. His opponent lives at Poplar. We
have a candidate for county commissioner, Joseph R.
Evans. His opponent is a Bainville man. We have a can
didate for clerk and recorder, Chas. W. Hamblin, and a
candidate for supt. Of schools, Lula M. Cooke, Of Volt.
Charles Gordon for justice and w. J. Kearney for con-
stable are two other Wolf Point men in the Democratic
column.
1t is not implied that we should vote for these can
didates and not for others, but vote for them all because
we are represented on the ticket. The other candidates on
the ticket are James M. Ostby, of McCabe, for State Sena-
tor; John H. Anderson, of Froid, for commissioner; |. w.
Buchanan, of Seips, for commissioner; w. H. Coats, Of
Froid, for sheriff; D.. NJ. Moothart, Culbertson, for treas
urer; H. H. Arends, of Culbertson, for clerk of court; Da-I
vd S. Nelson, Culbertson, assessor; L. A. Brown, Froid,
for county attorney; and Geo. L. Piecy, Bainvile, for
public administrator. Mention is made of the location of
these candidates show that they are fairly distributed
over the county and between the towns and the country.
With one or two exceptions the candidates on the
Republican ticket are from the towns of Mondak, Balm
vile, Culbertson, Brockton and Poplar, the exceptions re-
in the country nearby. Wolf Point is unrepresent-
ed on the Republican ticket with the exception of Clyde
Patton for constable.

FARM EDITOR FOR cox

Senator Harding casts aside every
spiritual, social and economic con
sideration that indissolubly bind
America to the rest of the world"
says Herbert Myrick, Republican, an
original Hoover man and editor of
Farm and Home and the Orange
Judd farm publications in a letter
describing his reasons for boiling the
Republican party and urging the
election of Governor Cox.
Values are on the toboggan," he
said, mental unrest prevails, spirit
ual values are lost sight of and most
of it all is as unnecessary as the
worlds need is universal for the ut
most of human production and for
the closest interdependence. To lead
the way out of the chaos, nearly all
the nations of the world are leagued.
Even Mexico, Germany and Russia
will join. Only the United States
stays out. And Harding says the
United States will never go in. Hard
ing casts aside every spiritual, social
and economic consideration that in
dissolubly binds America to the rest
of the world. The one duty is to.
elect Cox and a congress in sympathy
with Cox."-Great Falls Tribune.

this colloquy took place between
Senator Harding and Senator Nc.
Cumber from North Dakota:
Senator Harding. II want to ask
the Senator from North Dakota if he
believes for a moment that a Federal
food and fuel control board at a
time like this would be inconsiderate
of the interests of the farmer when
the object is to encourage him to pro-
duce food to sustain a nation at
war;"
Mr.. McCumber. "Let me ask the
Senator a question and one question
may answer the other: Does the Sen
ator believe that the commission will
allow the farmer and his son a price
for their labor equivalent to what the
farmer will pay for the tramp that he
brings in from the city at three or
four dollars a day? IF the Senator
believes that they will do that then
he and | do not believe alike
Mr.. Harding. "The Senator from
North Dakota has a Wong impress
sion. | want the farmer to be abund-
antly and proftably compensated,
but | would not pick him OUT to be
especially licensed to charge high
prices"
Mr.. McCumber. "Then do not be
afraid to vote for a 50 minimum at
any place in the United States, be-
cause no man on the face of the
earth can raise wheat here for 50 a
bushel and pay 81 a day for the la
Dor that goes into it. | know enough
about farming to know that it is a
impossibility."

THE FAR-FLUNG BALLOT BOX

From the time the first voter
registers his choice for president on
November 2, the Eastport, Maine,
eastermost community in the United
States, until some 16 hours later
when election judges close their polls
in Ozette, Washington, the presiden-
tial suffrage community farthest west
the heaviest battle of ballots ever
witnessed will be in progress" says a
bulletin of the National Geographic
Society, issued from its Washington,
D. C. office.
1.-THE battle will not be made great
er than those of 1912 and 1916 by
any increase in area over which it
will be fought" continues the bulletin
"for Arizona and New Mexico, cast
ing their ballots for President for the
first time in 1912, completed the ros-
ter of the states in the United States
proper and signalized the extension
of the Presidential suffrage to every
political unit between the two oceans
and the Canadian and Mexico borders
except the District of Columbia. The
battle will be almost doubled in mag
however, by the extension of
suffrage to women in the many states
did not permit them to vote
in previous elections.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1920-10-28


Mr.. Harding. "Mr. President, the
answer to that statement is that
when the Senator from North Dako-
ia and were on the farm learned
more about farming than he did,
(Laughter.)
Mr.. McCumber. "Mr. President,
maybe the Senator did; but the Sena-
tor who will tell me that he Ear raise
grain for 81 a bushel in the State of
ONO on land that cost $500 to $3.50
an acre demonstrates to me that he
Goes not know anything about farm
ing, and by Heaven, never did know
know anything about it."
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1920-10-28

"This greatest of election strug-
giles will take place in an area of APP
proximately 10000 square miles,
under conditions varying from frosty
weather of the Canadian boundary
and the not improbable snow storms
of the higher communities of the
Rockies, to the burning sunshine of
Key West and some of the cities and
villages of the southwestern border.
Ballot boxes-emblems of American
sovereignty-will~ be set up in the
hearts of great cities, in villages, in
wayside school houses; on isolated
islands, in pockets of the great woods
far up among rough peaks, and below
the level of the sea; in many cases
in communities which lie behind
great natural barriers that cut them
off physically from other settlements.
And yet, because of the telephone
and telegraph wires that extend into
nearly every community, and wire
less communication that supplements
them, most American citizens, unless
the contest is unusually close, will
learn the results from the far-hung
battle line at their breakfast tables
mex morning. Indeed, impatient fol-
lowers of the returns will probably
know the results before midnight,
reading reports as they are flashed
on screens before newspaper offices
in countless cities and towns"

SENATOR HARDING ON DOLLAR
WHEAT

Extracts from speech delivered by
Ohio Senator in Senate of United
States, July 10, 1917:
81 have followed the cradle, Sena-
tors, with the rake when wheat sold
for 40 cents a bushel. That was in
the day when farming was something
of a contest for subsistence. In this
latter day farming has become an oc-
cupation for profit; and | happen to
know that under normal conditions
dollar wheat makes it a very profit
able occupation, perhaps not to the
farmer who farms the farmers, but
it is to the farmer who farms the
farm"
Again, in the Senate on July 20,
1917, Candidate Harding said:
"If you fix the minimum price on
wheat, which forms the great staff
of life, then you must necessarily
bring about a readjustment of wages
drought out the country, which rate
of wages conforms to that cost of liv-
ing. Now assume that we fix a 50
minimum price on wheat and you re-
adjust the wages in the United States
to the basis of 50 wheat, double the
normal top price in peace, then you
will have to double the cost of en-
ployment throughout the United
States and will have fixed a scale 100
per cent higher than we had prior to
the war. 3 . = I do not think it
will bring about the desired relief
but | venture to say, Nh. President,
that if the qualities of American pa
triotism are such that you must guar
antee the American farmer a price
for his wheat in the face of a world
famine, then there is not patriotism
enough in this country to win the
war"

"She asked all the people who lived
in the apartment house where she was
to save her their stale bread, and all
the scraps and crumbs that were
brushed of the table.
"She said that every day she would
collect this bread. Then she put 1t
on the roof of the apartment house
and put few bushes growing in big
pots up here as you see, and she put
some little pans of water and she
said she would have place for the
birds who wanted to stop on their fly
ing trips over the city.
'She said this roof would be rest
ing place for birds. And so every day
and every night there is a banquet
here, an all-the-time banquet for the
birds.
"She hasn't asked any special birds
to come. She has just invited all the
birds who wanted to stop to partake
Of the banquet.
$50 I've been coming here for some
time now, and so have all my friends,
and see that many Of my friends and
my friends friends have told many
other birds, for there are number
Of new ones here.
1.-THE banquet, as said, is one which
lasts all the time-right through the
summer. Just now we've all eaten up
most Of the crumbs and the pieces Of
bread and we have bathed in the wa
ter and had drinks of It.
"But wait, you will see that the BAN
quet goes on and on, for the lady will
soon come and bring with her more
crumbs"
No sooner had the bird said these
words in his chirping voice than the
little old lady came along with big
basket filled with bread crumbs. She
scattered them over the roof and
then she said:
Here, birds, here am, with the
goodies. I'm sorry you were out Of
crumbs for a little while, but you'll
have special feast to make up for
It.
II went to the flower show today,
where I saw orchids and chrysanthe-
NUNS Of all colors. The orchids were
of yellow and purple and lavender and
green and the chrysanthemums were
Of the most beautiful colors, they
were the very early autumn ones.
"And there were vegetables at the
flower show too. They honored the
vegetables this year by letting them
appear at the show with the flowers,
the onion and the tomato and the po-
tato and parsley families. There were
some Of the grape families and other
fruit families there too, and there
were some green carnations and vel
low carnations-very special ones
grown In hot houses-and daisies of
every color you can imagine"
VI don't know what she is saying"
said the little bird who had been do
ing all the talking, 'but like to hear
her voice, and you see she hasn't for
gotten US. She has good time,
but she never forgets her friends, the
BIRDS"
And the lady was saying:
1--WE been having happy time,
birds, seeing all the flowers, but
wouldn't forget my little birdlings
and their friends, for they make SO
much happiness that we should make
them happy, tool"
And she does!
