As follows:
Observation-Disclosures
I'VE desire to remind all true Re-
publicans that Lynn j. Frazier, nomi-
mated o. the Republican ballot for
the United States senate has conclu-
|eively demonstrated by his official
record and by his sentim ents uttered
both in and out Of office, his antagon-
ism to each and every principle for
which true Republicans stand. We
deny that he is a Republican.
"The state central committee hav-
ing co-operated in "a organization
and work OF the Committee Of As in
the light. for good citizenship. In this
state, we heartily endorse the actions
of the Committee of IS and pledge
ourselves to continue to cooperate
with others opposed to Socialism in
the same manner as.our predecessors
have DONE"
The committee endorsed sveinbjorn
johnson, L.. E. Birdzel and W. L.
Nuessle as candidates for the supreme
bench, and declared that members
elected to, the state Central committee
who gave allegiance TO the Nonpar-
tisan League were not Republicans
and were therefore not qualified to be
members of the committee which was
instructed to fll their places with real
Republicans.
Consistent with this attitude the In
dependent Republicans Of the state
central committee refused to z1eet
with the N~onpartisan leaguers elected
Thereto but met by themselves as the
legitimate Republican state central
committee. '
B. F. spalding OF Fargo was re-
elected chairman Of the committee
and A. B. Jackson of Devils Lake was
named secretary Judge Spalding was
empowered to appoint an executive
committee to act with him. i
