The senate election committee yes
terday voted Senator Truman New
berry a clean bill for his seat in the
United States senate and the senate
will no doubt ratify the findings OF
that committee and Truman will be
cleared of all charges Of undue expen-
ditures used in securing mis- election
to that body. Henry Ford has spent
a mint of money trying to get TINS
seat in the senate and probably just
as much money in the election only
he spent it in a different way. New.
berry's term will soon expire and 1t
il doubtful if the state OF Michigan
will re-elect him to the senate under
the circumstances.

AS you plan your scheme of daily
life to include simple exercise and as
much fresh air and outdoors as posi-
BILE, so will you be able to increase the
years before you become customer
of the undertaken.
It's easy to go home in the evening
and sit down inside with the newspa.
per or a book and let your muscles
grow flabby with disuse.
But it, easy to die before your time
It you don't believe it look at the NOR:
tally column in your newspaper and
see the ages of those listed there.
The greatest medicine in the world
is fresh air, and you can write your
own prescriptions.
A daily walk in the evenings is the
simplest and most available exercise
for most of US. Get out in the out
skirts of town and smell the flowers
Let the evening breeze into your
lungs. The smell of the grass and
flowers will be worth all the trouble
Watch the stars come out in the sky
listen to the song of the bullfrogs in
the ponds.
YES, LET'S DISCUSS THE ISSUES
The official organs of the nonpar-
tisan state committee suggests in Of
fetal editorials that the issues in the
campaign should be discussed rather
than the fact that North Dakota
bonds are not selling because of in.
competent and dishonest handling OF
public funds, and bungling legislation
That is one of the issues in this cam
paign, because the Constitutional
Amendment and laws, for the initia.
ton of which petitions have been filed
with the Secretary of State by the In
dependents, are proposed for the pur-
pose of remedying some of the most
glaring flaws in our laws, and to pro-
vide for bonds that will sell so that
school districts, townships, cities, vii
lagos and counties can get their work
ing capital loose again.
The issues in this campaign were
raised by the Independents. They are
expressed in the Constitutional
Amendment and laws that are pro-
posed. Briefly, the question in this
election is shall the present members
of the Industrial Commission be per-
mitted to continue to squander pub
lie funds and use it for their personal
benefit longer than until in November;
shall schools, townships, villages and
counties go without their money, and
farmers and business men continue to
be financially embarrassed indefinitely.
or shall our laws and the personnel of
our Industrial Commission be changed
in November so that outside money
will commence to come back to North
Dakota?
If the official organs of the Frazier
Lemke-Hagan gang are not afraid to
discuss the issues, why don't they pub
lish the proposed constitutional
amendment and initiated laws so that
their readers may see with their own
eyes just what the issues are?

wAKEENEY MUST WAKE UP.

Is WaKeeney asleep2 The heading
of this article would indicate that she
is WaKeeney is not asleep, but Wa
Keeney is not as wide awake to her
opportunities, possibilities and ad-
vantages as she should. When you
recall the fact that only few months
ago this city voted a bond issue of
sixty-five thousand dollars for new
light and power plant and little
later voted fifty thousand dollars in
bonds for the erection of new school
building and that these buildings and
a dozen or fifteen new residences and
business houses are now in course of
erection, you cannot say that Wa
Keeney is asleep. On the other hand
what is WaKeeney doing to tell the
world about what our city is like and
what is going on here? What is it
doing to tell the world about the op-
portunities offered in this county and
community to the farmer and the
land owner and invester? =? Is it do
, ing anything?
Only last week this Office received
two important pieces of advertising

bout the Union Pacific Highway
