The Nonpartisan convention which
was held at Fargo last week was
conducted under closed doors. No
one was admitted to the convention
who was not identified with the Lea
que in the past and who the leaders
felt sure could keep secret. It is
.a wonderful political organization
that is afraid to let the world know
what they intend to do and how they
intend to carry out their program.
It will be remembered that the "se-
cret caucus" that was held at Bis
marck during the session of. the leg
islature that enacted laws that were
the downfall Of the League admin
istration was conducted under lock
and llOey. The "dupes" who were
lead into the trap by the leaders
who have proved themselves traitors
to honest government should have
their eyes opened by this time. A
political organization that is afraid
to let the world know their program
is not worthy the support Of an hon.
est citizen.

The announcement from North
Dakota that former Senator Gronna
would contest with McCumber for
the republican senatorial nomination
this year provoked much interest
although it was the occasion of no
surprise.
In Washington the two North
Dakota senators were seldom in ac-
cord. This was especially in evil
dence during the debate on the Lea
que of Nations when Gronna stood
with the Borah-J Johnson group while
McCumber supported the peace COW
enant. News Of the internal strife
in the state has also sifted through
to the capitol and the campaign in
North Dakota this year will be
watched with interest. This will be
due not only to the fact that Sena-
tor McCumber of North Dakota is
chairman Of the Finance committee
but also because the two men rep
resent two diverse shadec of opinion
that now practically divide the Re
ruhlican senator's into two distinct
factions.
McCumber is considered a regular
and on account Of his position must
be considered an Administration
mainstay. Gronna, on the other
hand. belonged in the ras t to a
loosely knit faction n which Hiram
