MARTINIQUE INDIGNANT At
=, POSSIBILITY OF y. S. RULE
About 40 Per Cent Of Births on the
Island Are liiesitImate

Spectal Cable Dispatch. COPYRIGHT. 1873
Fort do France, Martinique, Feb. 13.
The Negro population Of the French
West Indies does not want American
ways nor American laws and is bitterly
opposed to any idea of the surrender
OF this territory as part payment for
the war loans. -.
There were demonstrations against
Americans in Martinique when it was
first proposed to give the island to the
United States. However. the people
were treasured that the French policy
is against such action.
France is holding both the sentiment
and the trade Of the islands. The pos
session of these islands Is Of strategic
importance, because Of their situation
with reference to British and American
bases, because they have ports suitable
for naval bases and because Of the de-
vclopment Of aviation.
The island furnishes ground for study
OF marriage, as the illegitimatc births
are high--about 40 per cent. This Is
due, to the difficulty and expense Of
marriage and the attitude Of the church
against divorce and because the women
say they would rather live with men
unmarried than otherwise for II they
were legally united the men would beat
them.

us to be the height of folly to try and

under the present conditions it
would be better to retain McCumber,

Entered at the post office at Hope,
North Dakota, as second class matter.

The Pioneer has had little to say
regarding the senatorial fight in the
coming primary for the reason that
we We're not prepared to take a stand
in the matter until the issues were
clearly drawn. This stage has been
reached and the question before the
voters is: Will they send Frasier or
McCumber to represent North Dako-
ia in the United States Senate?
While there are many things
charged against McCumber that the
average voter dislikes, still there are
many things to be gained by return
ing him to the senate, not only to the
state but to the nation. He is now
chairman OF the Finance committee
recognized as the most important
committee in the senate; he also
ranks second in the Foreign Rela-
tions committee which is also very
important committee at this time.
Never before in the history OF this
country has the craftsmanship of this
(Finance) committee been held by
man from the Northwest By reason
OF this position, he is able to WELD
a great deal of influence in the mat
ter OF the St. Lawrence Waterway
Project which is vitality important to
the Northwest and North Dakota and
will mean the saving of millions of
dollars in freight i'll future years. He
has also been very active in the inter-
ests OF the eI-service men and has
been influential in securing the pass
age OF a great deal of legislation in
their interest.
Again, McCumber has made some
mistakes, but never has he been ac-
cused OF being inefficient. He has
been tireless worker and has never
shlrked on the job. A study of his
record and the position he has taken
on the important issues that have
come before the senate will show
that he has always worked Tor the
interests Of his constituents.
In regard to an alliance with the
Nonpartisan League we quote from
a statement issued from McCumber
headquarters at Fargo:
The story has been repeatedly
told that Senator McCumber has aid
ed the Nonpartisan League; that he
mad an alliance with them in the
campaign of 1916, and that he per-
sonally, and through the National
Republican Committee furnished
money for their campaign. Nothing

could be further from the truth. The

could be further from the truth. The
Senator has never had an alliance
with the Nonpartisan League. He
supported the straight Republican
ticket in 1915, as did most everyone
else in North Dakota, although the
nominees were nearly all Nonparti-
sans. Frazier carried the election by
a majority of 67,314 and McCumber
had a majority of 1926 over John
Burke. Inasmuch as McCumber re-
ceived 10000 votes less than Fraz-
ier it would seem to be plain enough
that he had no alliance with the Lea
que. Such talk is bunk, pure and
simple, and is circulated ror no other
reason than to discredit Senator Nc
Cumber"
We have little to say regarding
the candidates opposing McCumber.
If You vote for McHarg your vote
will be wasted, he is in the campaign
simply to pull a few votes to assist
in defeating McCumber. In regard
to Frazier, you all know him and
there has been so much said and so
we'll said'' in the campaign in which
was he recalled as governor of the
state that we need not go into de-
tails. He would doubtless carry his
many deficiencies with him, were he
sent to the senate.
