ed States senate by several thousand
votes, the McHarg vote perhaps be-
ing about the required size to bring
about his defeat for one thing, but the
main feature Of this fight is that the
senator defeated himself. He has been
utterly out of touch with the people
of the state for some years and has
turned a deaf ear to those who have
been waging a strong fight against
state socialism, he has turned deaf
ear to the people Of the state on the
matter Of appointments, only listening
to the old line stalwarts, and he prac-
tically told the people of the state to
go jump into the lake when at Fargo
they asked him to give them some def
mite answers on matters pertaining
to the state. Had Senator McCumber
instead of lodging the issues in the
recall election last fall, come out to
his state and taken the stump against
state socialism like Nestos, Young
and others, there would have been
nothing to it, he would have romped
under the wire by very handsome
majority. But he proved to be brok-
en- reed to the people Of the state who
were fighting socialism at a time Of
need and now he has lost out and
North Dakota has lost the finance
committee craftsmanship, the greatest
in the United States senate, and a
man recalled from the high office of
governor has been nominated in his
stead-a man of very mediocre INTEL
ligence compared to McCumber, and
who, if elected next fall, will not have
his prestige and the state will lose as
a consequence. 1t only substantiates,
also the weakness of the two conven-
tons, the one at Minot where no SEN
ator was endorsed and the one at
Jamestown, where no senator was en-
lorsed After the Minot convention
Frank White ran as third candidate
and his vote defeated Gronna, and
1ow McHarg was the third candidate
and his vote has probably defeated
McCumber together with the peeved
who have not liked the
senator's attitude. These are the rea-
sons why he has been defeated. 1t is
10 blow at the Harding administration
IS the democrats would like to have
t appear. The fact Of the matter is
hat many democrats around the state
7oting the republican ticket for Mes
;os, voted for Frazier in order to de-
seat McCumber so that they could
run O'Connor in the fall. This is good
politics on their part. Local condit-
ons defeated McCumber and his de-
'eat absolutely has nothing to do with
he Harding administration. McCum-
Der can now reflect on his mistaken
policy toward the people of his state,
and his lack of help and sympathy
with them in times of great stress
when they were fighting with their
back against the wall fighting bunch
If carpet Dagger socialists.

Well, the primary election is over,
and now that the voters of the state
can get a much needed rest by get
ting ready for the fall campaign
which will start Immediately. We
have had two elections within the
past year and now we are facing an
other one in just four months. To
our way of thinking this is a great
deal of a farce. One election is
enough and let the high man win. AS
it is now the high men or women
have to face another campaign which
is not only a matter for worry but of
expense. The primary law needs a
lot of doctoring.

The independent voters of the state
will heartily congratulate Gov. R. A.
Nestos upon his victory at the polls
Wednesday. Outside of the very dirty
innuendoes thrown out at him by the
Fargo Courier-News, the campaign as
a whole was clean. Mr.. Baker was
clean in all the speeches that we heard
of and the governor certainly treated
his opponent in most gentlemanly
way. The result is not only crafty
ing to the governor but it is to the
people generally. He has made fine
record while in office and we have
no reason to fear that he will do 9TH
erwise in the next two years as gov
ernor. He has very large increase
over his recall vote Notwithstanding
that about 20 per cent of the indepen-
dents did not vote at the election. If
the Independents had voted instead of
the Indifference shown, his majority
as we'll as all the candidates on the
Independent tic ket would have been
very large. The western part of the
state showed a remarkable slump
from the league to the independents
so far as the governorship is con-
cerned, which proves that they consid-
er Mr.. Nestos has made good his re-
call pledges.
The results of Wednesdays election
shows that while there was not much
noise around the Lacquer advocates of
state government were awake all the
time and on the job. While there
is a much smaller vote cast in the
state it has developed that the league
forces were better organized and
quietly did the work. Marked sample
ballots were given each voter so that
when they entered the polling booth
they knew what to do and how to
vote. On the other hand the Courier
News yesterday said that rs per cent
of the 1. V. A. vote of Fargo was not
cast and said if that was the general
rule over the state it forecasted a
league victory. We had over two
thousand votes registered in Valley
City and only IT'S were cast on cleo
ton day. All over the state the lea
guers were up and voting. That is
the difference between one bunch
and the other and if the independents
do lose out it is because of their own

Date of meeting-Monday, July 10,

Place Of meeting-Commercial Club
Rooms, Fargo, N. Oak.
The annual meeting Of the North
Dakota Section of the National Parks
Highway will be held in Fargo, Mon
day, July 10, 1922 at 900 a. m. in the
Commercial Club Rooms. The pur-
poses of this meeting are:
/. The election Of state officers,
the election of director for each coun-
ty through which the Highway passes
2. The preparation of a campaign
to promote the National Parks High
way and to secure the adoption there
of, from Chicago via the Twin Cities
and Fargo through the State of North
Dakota.
Note carefully: A stubborn and
persistent campaign is being made by
certain competitive highways to the
south of us to reach Congress with a
proposal to shift the north transcon-
tinental highway from Fargo and
Beach to certain territory to the south
of us. This must be defeated or the
painstaking effort of years has been
defeated.
We hope the gravity of the situa.
ton is realized before it is too late
This is a warning as we'll as an ap-
peal and we hope it will not fall upon
deaf ears or that no reader Of these
lines will realize that the danger is
any less than we have here set forth
1t is really a grave situation and will
require the hearty, persistent and de-
termined cooperation OF every town
from the Twin Cities, through Fargo
and Beach, to Miles City, Montana
to save the loss of these years of
!efforts to establish the northwest
highway over this course. |
Particular attention is called to res
olutions passed by the Directors Meet
ing in November last which provide as
follows: t-..
1. Each county shall be entitled to
two votes held by as many represent
tatives. Each county director shall
hold county convention, prior to the
annual state meeting which shall con-
sist of representatives from each
town on the Highway in his county

TOURISTS AND THEIR MANNERS

If farmers and their families should
arrive in Fargo in their automobiles
drive into the residence districts
pitch their tents on private lawns,
start fires there and litter the lots
with tin cans and waste paper; if they
should ring the front doorbells and
demand water or perhaps go to the
garden hose and help themselves with
out asking permission; and if they
should trample through flower beds
or pluck what pleased their fancy,
city folks might have. good cause for
expressing their anger and disgust in
no mild terms.
Unfortunately that is just the atti-
tude assumed by far too many city
vacationists in the country.
These are the days when the auto
mobile trails are swarming with tour
lists. The vacation period is just
reaching its height, and literally hun
dreds of thousands, perhaps millions,
of Americans are touring by automo-
bile.
The great majority of these, of
course, are decent citizens possessing
the qualities Of tact, courtesy and
consideration for the rights and feel
ings of others. But unfortunately
there are some who are not so consid-
crate and who look upon country folk
as having no other mission in life
than to provide conveniences for au-
tomobile tourists. They regard a
farm house as an inn, farm garden
as legitimate prey, and a farm house
lawn as made for camping purposes.
Pop bottles, and watermelon rinds,
and paper plates can be discarded any
place that is most convenient they
think. Farm gates are not meant to
be kept closed, in their estimation,
and growing crops are meant to be
trampled down if it is inconvenient
to go around them.
Nobody is more hospitable than
the average farmer, but tourists
should remember that this is the busy
season on the farm. The farmer and
his wife have something else to do
than to provide free service for pass
ing tourists, and clean up the rub
bish they leave behind.
A little study by both the farmer
and the tourist of the attitude of the
other fellow, might add to both the
profit and the comfort of both. In
many parts Of the east the business
of supplying the wants Of tourists
has proved source Of considerable
revenue for farmers located on much
travelled highways. And on the 9TH
ar hand little thoughtfulness and
for the rights of the
Farmer will make of him a friend and
we'll wisher instead of a resentful

There should be some system de-
vised for getting the results of an
election more rapidly. This old sys-
tenn of tallying up the vote is all
wrong. Election clerks and judges
are compelled under the present old
fashioned style Of sitting on the ecc-
ton board all day and all night count
ing votes in that slow old way an
thus it takes two or three days to
find out who is elected. 1t would
seem that in the near future s me
way could be found where tallying
machine of a simple design could be
used so that the votes can be regis
tered as voted and then added up at
the closing of the polls and the votes
counted and results sent in at once.
A modern system of this kind mig1t
be quit a little expense but in the end
it would pay. We are running along
too slow in the present day method
of finding out who is elected.

The returns from the primary cleo
tion complete from the Fifteen-l leg
islative district, unofficial, gives the
editor of this paper a very comfort
able majority over his opponent,
hundred seventy Eight majority. In the
face of the fight made against us by
the league forces who would rather
see US defeated than any other man
on the ticket, we deem IN splendid
victory. The result has beer brought
about by the splendid am loyal sup
port of our friends and to them we
desire at this time to heartily hank
and to express to them grateful ap-
probation. If elected at the fall cleo
ton our aim and ambition will be to
give them such service as will justify
the confidence they have placed in us.

the original thought Of the originators
of egg-laying competitions. The pour
try production of this country has in
creased very materially, eggs are more
in demand and poultry meat is not now
so much of a luxury as a necessity.
Every report by statistical bureaus
dealing with the subject shows greater
consumption of poultry meat and eggs
and a more rapid movement in and out
Of cold storage, while, on the other
hand, statistics show a gradual tho posi-
tive decrease in four-footed meat pro-
duction. Capper's Farmer (Kansas)
has this to say:
"It now costs about % cents a
dozen, on the average, to produce
eggs in this country, say poultry ex-
perts. The middle west is the great
surplus producer of eggs in the
United States. New York consumes
about 100000, 900 dozen more eggs
than it produces. but the aggregate
excess production OF eggs in Kansas,
Iowa. Missouri and Indiana is about
234. .OOO. 900 dozen. The value of the
Kansas egg crop exceeds that of
Iowa-s wheat crop, and Kansas is not
the largest producer OF eggs.

closed for the eleventh, or present year.
More entries are annually received
than can be accommodated, all entries
are accepted in the order in which
they are received. For the thirteenth
year, to begin November 1, 1928, a few
reservations are now in the hands Of
the secretary.
More than the 100 houses and their
complement OF 500 birds can not be
handled successfully by the present
operating force and it is not deemed
wise to increase either the number OF
houses or the operating force, it is felt
that because OF the limit placed on
size of these competitions other similar
enterprises will be forced into being.
Educational effort will go forward
faster with more competitions than
with the present more or less limited
number. New Jersey operates two
Kansas two and many states operate
one each. Every state should have at
least one; in heavy producing sections
an egg-laying competition would add
greatly to the success of poultry
raisers.
