The hut was not frequented much by

WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL,
LET'S FIGURE IT OUT,

Additional candidates continue to
appear in the list for the Republican
nomination for the Office Of governor
OF the state of North Dakota and 1t
is. very fitting that we should have
"a large number of competent n
capable me- who are willing to serve
the state in this time Of political tur-
moil.
Never was there a time in the his
tory of the state Of North dakota
when a real statesman was needed
for the chief executives chair as
much as at the present time, and any
man who is elected to that position
must expect the biggest job and the
longest hours that n governor OF
the state of North Dakota has ever
experienced.
To untangle the myriad of compll-
cations into which the present adj
ministration has forced the state Is
no child's play and it is therefore
more important than ever that the
Republicans of the state of North
Dakota should choose with exceeding
care the man who ,isN to represen,
them as their candidate.
The. one outstanding problem is
that the present Socialistic admins
tration should be displaced and that
there should be substituted for the
present governor the most, capable,
statesmanlike and businessIlike citi-
zen that a be chosen. ~
A convention for the choosing OF
the Republican candidate has beer
called 10 meet in Minot and it is, most
important that every delegateato that
convention should make a study Of
his particular district so that he car
report fully concerning the feelings
of his constituents. 1t is likewise
most necessary that each delegate
should attend the convention with
the main object in view, namely the
selection of the best man for the
position. 1t will be we'll if such dele
gates attend the convention resolved
to act in the spirit of frankness
willing to listen to arguments and t
weigh the merits and shortcoming'
of each candidate. proposed in tn!
same spirit that he, might select /;

having examined a large number fol
the job.
Let the convention consider eacl
man carefully as TO his qualifications
for tho big job before him, and sc

the selectionzofH that candidate at TIL,

CAR SHORTAGE.

The present freight car shortage is
a great to every line of bus
mess at the present time, and in
spite of o favorable weather con-
ditions the movement of ali freight
continues slow, and in many sections
the congestion is even greater than
it was a few weeks ago.
More freight cars at once is out
OF the question because it takes time
to build substantial freight cars and
it takes a lot of time to build the
quantity which is. unquestionably
necessary to handle our vast Increased
volume of freight business. There is
however. n remedy that will great.
~. assist in the present dilemma, and
this remedy can become immediately
effective il the business public will
agree to unload freight and release
the cars containing the same ;mmedi.
ately Upon it's receipt.
This immediate partial solution o,
the car shortage is most vital to tn.
business interests Of the country, ant
all receivers of freight should releas,
the equipment at the earliest possibl.
moment, thus making it available TO,
use, of other shipments.
There are nearly .2.5oo.o 900 freieh
cars in the country, and even on
hour saved from the average deten
ton in the loading or discharge b,

would be equivalent to making avail

A BAD CASE OF u. rs.

The Townley press is having a per
fectly gorgeous time with itself these
days. nominating and discarding can
didates for the independent voters of
the state to support at the coming pri-
mary election. We don't know Just
what brand of dope the editors use,
!iut Just how they manage to get hold
of it in these piping times of prohi-
bition is more Or less of a mystery.
If some humorously inclined per-
son were to slip one of these inspired
ink singers a tip hat the Akoond
of Swat or tho Bob of Burma was
being supported by Jerry Bacon"
or Judge Young" for the governor
ship it's a cinch that he would fall
for it, and the, arm would be found
blazoned in scare headlines as an alb
solute fact in all OF the Socialistic
sheets of the state the next day.
The actual fact is, of course, that
the independent voters Of the state
will select h man who seems to
them best fitted to hold the office
without n help from Mr.. TownIey
or any of the gentlemen on his pav-
roll. Until the Minot convention is
held, however. the present attack OF
jim jams may be expected to. con
tinue. Presumably it affords some re-
lief to the unfortunate victims .of
Townleyitis, and it doesn't hurt any.
n else, SO why worry
Remember that the mon uhc
make up these weird tales realize
I that the day of reckoning is close
sat hand. and each one of them is
about as comfortable as a dog with
a tin can tied to his tail. So don,
blame them too much If they fur
nish good limitations of such dis.
tressed canines.
