1t is generally understood in polit-
ical circles here that the national
committee decided on making it's
stand clear when it became known
that certain Republicans in North Da-
kota had approached the committee
on proposition to put up another
Republican candidate for. United
States senator in opposition to Fra
zier.
Pressure No Secret
1t is no longer a secret here that
much pressure was brought to bear on
a certain man to make the race. 1t is
even known that this man was lend
ing willing ear to those proposals,
being led to believe that he had a
chance to crowd in between Frazier
and J. F. T: O'Connor, the Democrat
ic nominee.
The action Of the national commit
tee appears to have silenced the ad-
vocates of third candidate for Unit
ed States senator in North Dakota.
With the national Republican COM
mittee pledged to the support of Fra
zier and the Democratic body lining
up behind O'Connor, the opinion pre-
walls here that party lines will be
drawn tighter in that state in the
coming fall election than has been the
case for several years.
No Substitution Sanctioned
In thus pledging it's support to the
Republican congressional nominees
in North Dakota, the national COM
mittee let it also be known that it
would not sanction any move on the
part of the Nonpartisan League to
substitute other candidates for Young
and Burtness. The committee will lend
its support to the election of the Re-
publican candidates and it expects all
loyal Republicans in the state to do
the same, the chairman is said to have
declared.
The Bottineau courant., 1922-08-10

tional organization accepts as the Re-
publican candidate for U. S. Senator,
Hon. Lynn J. Frazier and as Repubh-
can candidates for representatives in
congress, O. B. Burtness, Geo. M.
Young and James H. Sinclair.
All this sour wind which has been
rising from the upset stomachs of the
bi-partisans as to the impossibility of
accepting Frazier and Sinclair as Re-
publicans has been eructated in vain.
The Republican party accepts-as it
has always done-the verdict of the
rank and file Of the party in each
state
The unqualified pledge of support
and the endorsement by the national
Republican organization will settle
beyond any question for every honest
and honorable Republican, if there ev-
er was doubt of it, the recognition
of Lynn j. Frazier and James Fl.
Sinclair as candidates Of their party.

Washington, Aug. 5.-The Republi-
ican national and congressional COM
mittees will support the congressional
ticket in North Dakota headed by

mated in the June primary, according
to announcement just made here.
This announcement was made after
a conference here between North Da-
kota representatives and National
Chairman Wood, Chairman Adams of
the congressional committee and Re-
publican leaders of other states.
Must Be Republicans
1t was the unanimous opinion at
this conference that North Dakota
must be represented in congress by
Republicans and that the only thing
for the national congressional COM
mittee to do was to support the tick
ct nominated by the Republicans of
that state.

Four Decades Ago Little Considered,

The recent announcement that
the sale of the first section of Cana
dian Pacific land was sold forty years

first carload of wheat was shipped
from Winnipeg forty years ago, the
changes that have taken place since
then are matters of reminiscence, but
yet Of interest. What forty years ago
was an unknown quantity, barren be-
cause but little production was at

prairie provinces. of which the pro-

second largest producer of oats, with
3O,710,OOO bushels, of which 60 per
cent was grown between Winnipeg and
the Rocky mountains; and the fifth
largest producer of barley with 63.311,-
600 bushels, Of which the prairies
yielded 60 per cent.
Forty years ago scarcely any of the

Conway. June 17.-In two resolu- tOns adopted unanimously today, the Faulkner County Democratic Central Committee went on record as officially against those who bolted the party ticket in the general election of 1920, being allowed to participate in the party primaries, and also endorsed the candidacy of Arthur B. Hill of Little Rock as candidate for state su- perintendent of public instruction
 Under the first resolution, judges and clerks at the primary are directed to exclude from the booths all those who left the ranks in the last general election. Endorsement of MT. Hill by the committee came as a surprise and is considered as rather out of the ordi nary, fnasmuch as Granville Cubage, his opponent for the nomination, re sided in Conway for number of years.
 The resolution endorsing MT. Hill is worded as follows: Tn these times when the voters closely scrutinize can didates for public office. we believe the Democratic party should be careful In it's selection of those it intends to pres ent for the suffrage of the electorate We see that A.
