Minnie J. Nelson, present superin-
tendent Of public instruction, has
made good in office. In the face of
the most obstinate opposition any Of
fetal ever had who has been elected
to that Office she has stood her ground
in a ladylike and businesslike manner.
The opposition has brought up it's 75's
in a fusilade of mud singing not only
at her official work but at her person
al character. They have insinuated and
thrown out innuendoes at her whose
import cannot be mistaken. Every
person in Barnes county knows Miss
Nelson to be pure minded woman,
Of splendid character, whose only
purpose while in that or any other
school Office has been to bring the
schools of the state to higher and
cleaner standard. You all know her
and we are going to ask you to show
your faith in her integrity and in her
ability by giving her rousing major
ity in this county a week from to-
morrow. She should get a unanimous
vote regardless Of political or personal
reasons just to show the league press
that the people Of this county disbe-
lieves the many nasty things it has
said about her. The independent press
has not said word about her oppon-
emit. The press believes that she is a.
good woman in every respect and
could not say anything about her. On
the contrary the league press has be-
smirched its pages with mud of the
dirtiest kind about woman whose
character is the best type of woman
hood and whose whole life has been
one of service and high standard of
ideals. Vote for Minnie j. Nelson
for superintendent Of public instruc-

Barnes county will give Harding
and Coolidge big majority. There is
no doubt about that. The sentiment
is that way and that is the way the
vote of this county is going. We look
for at least thousand majority for
Harding and Coolidge in Barnes coun-
ty on November 2.
Election wagers this year seem to
be few and far between. The ma
tional election appears to be too
much one-sided for any of the demo-
cratic supporters to have faith enough
to back up their allegations that Cox
will be elected, either with money or
any other kind Of a wager.
Do you consider it good business to
loan nine millions of dollars to peo-
pl outside of the state Of North Da-
kota when you can loan it to people
in the state at 4 per cent. That is
what the Bank of North Dakota has
done, and they have lost to the farm
ers Of this state $500 per day in inter-
est by doing so. Is it not time that a
change of administration was had so
that the people can get square deal
instead of few politicians who are
reaping the benefit?

members Of local labor unions at

ments attributed by local newspapers
to R. A. Pomadt, the nonpartisan

district. The fourteen men assert that
while speaking at meeting of local
union members Mr.. Pomadt declared:
''That he was not member Of the
league and did not believe in its prin-
ciples, but that he aligned himself
with the league in order to get votes.
That the laborer and the farmer
have conflicting interests, but that
.'we have got to have the farmer be-
cause he has the bank roll"
The only interest apparently that
the league candidates have is to get
into Office at the expense of the farm
er and they have been doing it pretty
regularly in North Dakota.
The newspaper that is going in this

alone print it and pay postage and
other overhead. People are willing
to pay reasonable subscription price
for any paper they want to read and
they don't want to read a paper of
that sort at any price. The Times

on the job election day to take Ine vol
ers to the polls. It is imperative that
every friend Of good government in
both country and town get out with
their automobile and get their friends
to the polls. Every person has a duty
that he owes the state of North Da-
kota and that duty leads him to sac,
rifice time and personal matters to
give his or her service to the people OF
the state. Let every man and woman
who feels that a change of govern
ment is needed get out next Tuesday
to the polls. Do not let the league
leaders slip the election over while
we sit idly by. Let us all be up and
doing and get to the polls-if we do
that J. F. T. O'Connor will be elected
governor next Tuesday and the rest
of the fusion ticket with him.
Judge Englert in making his plea
for reelection to the bench makes a
great deal of stress about trying 200
cases. Well what of it. AS we un-
derstand it that was what Townley
had him appointed for-was to try
cases-one of them was the notorious
Observation-Disclosures Bank case at
Fargo where Hagen was convicted Of
classifying the books. Mr.. Englert
also in speeches at the Chautauqua
auditorium and at Kathryn and 9TH
er places before he was appointed to
the bench made the statement that he
was ashamed of the business men Of
Valley City-he tried US out without
counsel and in places where we did
not have an opportunity to reply. He
said this paper was controlled by big
business-or at least that is what was
reported to US. We did not hear him
but we believe the persons who told it
to US. If that is the way the Judge
feels about this paper and his neigh
bors in Valley City why under hea-
vens should any Valley City man vote
for Judge Englert? Attorney Lee
Combs is not ashamed of living with
us so we are going to ask our voters
to vote for man who is glad to be
one among us. Mr.. Combs says that
he is going to vote for O'Connor for
governor and we believe him, but we
wonder if Friend Englert will make
the same statement-in print. We are
very glad of the opportunity of help
ing to manage the campaign of Mr..
Combs-as the genial Judge says wei
are his manager. . .".5-I
