nonpartisan. The Times-Record can
heartily endorse all the good things
said of the gentleman as to his being
a good man in every respect. But
the great principle involved in this
election is whether the people want to
turn control Of the state legislature
over to the nonpartisans or whether
they want to give the independents
control. When it comes down to good
citizenship and all that we rather
think all the candidates involved in
this legislative fight can qualify, one
as good as the other, so that the whole
matter hinges on the question Of poll
,tical control of the state. Mr.. Ras-
mussen, if elected, will unquestionably
vote with the leaguers any bunk to
the contrary will not go. If Trub-
shaw is elected he will vote with the
independents, so that the whole fight
SINNERS down to the one great ques-
ton 49, league or anti-league. Being
good citizen is essential as we'll as
being a good fellow, but that does
not settle matters so grave as turn
ing the state back into the hands of
, the ]eaguers who have shown them
selves incompetent to run the state.

they had not been recalled, would have

brought about the sale Of $50,000,OO0
worth of state bonds by this time
which would have been loaned to all
the farmers of the state" We do not
believe anyone will dispute his first
statement. If Lemke, Frazier and Ha-
gan had been in power they would I'M
doubtedly have sold that amount Of
bonds-on the same basis as the sale
of bonds just before they left office
and the taxpayers would have been
holding the sack to the extent of sew
eral hundred thousand dollars in the
shape Of discounts and high interest
rates which Splitter, Rorick Co., would
have gotten the benefit of. That is
one of the reasons why Lemke, Fra
zier and Hagan were recalled-they
had no regard for the interests Of the
taxpayers in their administration of
state affairs-and the principal rea-
son why Nestos will be returned to Of
flee is he places the interest of the
taxpayer ahead Of everything else.
Regarding the statement that this
money would have been loaned to far
mers in the state, this illustrious trio
would have had to do business on a
different basis than they did while in
office or the money would have been
loaned to land spectators living out
side of the state who were sympa-
thetic to the nonpartisan league. If a
voter happens to have a short men,
ory he might fall for that kind of
bunk but the man who remembers the
cost to the taxpayers of the late Lem
ke-Frazier- Hagan administration will
hardly place those statements in the
class of logical campaign arguments.
"What might have been," as told by
Lemke, will hardly outweigh the facts
of their administration as shown by
the records.
Two or three days ago Lynn j.
Frazier spoke at Pillsbury and among
other things, as we are reliably in
formed, advised the farmers to take
the "Nelson cure" to get rid of their
debts, saying that it was the fault of
the I. V. A. bankers of the state and
the independent administration that
prices were low and that they should
stand the loss-which they would be
forced to do if the farmers went
through bankruptcy. We never did
think much of Frazier and reports of
that speech do not add to our regard
for him. Any man who will advise
others to repudiate their debts and
let those who have trusted them hold
the sack is not a man to place much
confidence in. Statements such as
have been credited to him would not
recommend him very highly for the
position of United States Senator. We
imagine that Frazier, feeling that
way, would, if elected to the senate
be in favor of repudiating national
debts providing they were owing to :
country that he thought had not used
this country right. Even though he
were as competent man as the c..
N. claims, which he is not, statements
of that kind should turn the vote oil
any thinking man against him as il
does not lead a person to think that
he is overburdened with a sense o.
honesty or fair dealing.

Hooray. Glory be. The Courier
News has finally found something to
"holler" about Gov. Nestos. After a
long and painful research in the his
tory of our govemor-both private
and political-that great exponent of
the Townley rights has finally discov-
cred that our worthy governor in 1921
became identified with an oil company
in Montana which he and few of his
friends promoted and now the en-.
says he is using his office as COVER
nor to exploit this oil proposition. This
is as far from the truth as all state
ments made by this paper are. The
governor as a private citizen has just
as much right to belong to an oil
company as any other individual. In
Valley City we have lot of good bus
mess men who have taken plunge
into oil and they cannot be regarded
as crooks because they have failed to
make good-that is what they init
mate of the governor. 1t is rather
dirty politics but it is the only straw
the leaguers have to hold on to. Gov.
INestos has used no money that belongs
: TO the people to promote this oil COM
pany. Now let US see what happened
when Mr.. Frazier, recalled governor
and candidate for United States SEN
ator did with the peoples money-not
his own. He allowed Mr.. Townley-
beg pardon-Mr. Townley did it in
lspite of the govelnor--to take several
thousands Of dollars to buy land for
a sisal company in Florida and nobody
but Townley and those in with him
have gotten anything out Of it. The
people lost this tax money, your tax
money. Frazier allowed half million
dollars of your tax money to be de-
posted in defunct bank at Fargo.
This is all gone and we pay the bill.
About two hundred thousand dollars
were shot into the consumers stores
by Mr.. Townley under the governor
ship of Frazier-all gone. Your tax
money. Hundreds Of thousands of dol
lars were shot into the homebuilders
fund and in league newspapers. The
only ones who got any benefit was
Townley, Lemke, Waters and a few
favored ones not to forget Brinton,
who was the prime mover in all these
things along with the big boss. Does
the Courier News think it can fool the
people by this bunk about Gov. Mes
tos belonging to some Montana Oh!
Company Not so you would notice
it. Alex. Mckenzie may be dead. but

C. Townley is alive and on the job

cream checks, post dated checks ans

This is a great life being in politics.
Mr.. Frazier in his speeches takes q
dirty slap at the members of the SUI
preme court and while he does not
say so he intimates that the foul
members of the court who decided fol
Richland county in a garnishmen1
case, were bought up, and that is the
reason why these Judges were not re-
called. Mr.. Frazier and his boss

agreed upon at the Jamestown conven-
