WHY WOOD is STRONG

Some weeks ago q Washington
writer expressed the opinion that Gen
eral Wood was q strong candidate, and
that his strength was giving anxiety
to the republican supporter of other
candidates, because Wood had net been
brought into contact with important
measures in such q way as to arouse
opposition, and that he was "strongly
negatively because Of this aloofness."
on this the New York Times makes
the following spirited comment:
mot till the millennium, perhaps.
viii politicians divest their noodles of
tie theory of his negative qualities,
because he has not collected this and
that group Of opponents, because he
is 2 colorless and easy subject OF COM
promise, and because both wings or all
wings can get together IN his sup
port. General Wood, whatever be the
actual prospects of his candidacy, Is
strong in character and public service,
vet his greatest strength is to be found
in his tact, energy. and success as an
administrator in Cuba, and the Phil
ippines. He is strong because his
firm acts and words in respect to the
plots of dangerous agitators have won
public approval. As administrator
and man of action his achievements
entitle him to be candidate for pres,
ident. Why not dwell on that proved
fitness? But republican leaders must
shut their eyes to that, say that ne
is strong negatively He is strong
positively. He has shown again and
a gain and continuously, courage, pa
triotism, force. If he is to be noml..
mated let him be nominated because OF
his actions and not because of some
real or supposed *aloofness' from GER
tain public cntroversies." - Grand
Forks Herald.

GETTING A ONE-SIDED VIEW

Much of the mlSconceptlon or con-
ditions in North Dakota which is
general in certain circles in the ma
ton is gained from biased reports
published in magazines of general
circulation. In the last issue of the
Literary Digest appears lengthy
article on the Scandinavian-Ameri-
can Bank failure reprinted in full
from the Nonpartisan Leader. There
are no comments by the editor to
explain the bias TO the article which
might be expected as coming from
the league official organ, and being
laudatory Of the acts of the COVER
nor, state bank examiner and su-
preme court gives the impression
20 the world that the state banking
board was wholly at fault. Now if the
Literary Digest had wanted to be fair,
it would have published in parallel
column the story Of the trial Of Ha-
gen, the president Of the bank. Or
Just bare announcement at the head
Of the article that jury composed
mostly of farmers had found President
Hagen guilty CT illegal banking meth
DDS would have sufficed. But the edi-
tor Of the Literary Digest seems to be
imbued with the idea that the Non
partisan league is a great farmers
movement" instead of being an adj
:unct to Red Socialism, conducted by
q small coterie Of grafters who are
milking the farmers. While that pub
lication has on several occasions pub
lished articles dealing with the league
and Townley from an honest view
point, is has invariably accompanied
the same articles from the Nonparti-
san leader, the Fargo Courier News
both owned by Townley to show that
the men who opposed the league are
em!ssaries of Big Biz, enemies of the
farmers, and all the rest Of the rot
and falsehoods which the honest peo-
