To The Citizens of TooIe County:
take pleasure Elm announcing that am a candidate for the office of State
Representative for Toole County, and although am seeking the nomination on
the Democratic ticket wish to say that respectfully solicit the support of v
cry man and woman in this county regardless of party affiliations.
It appears to me that the person whom you may elect to be your State
Representative should take IN active interest n, and work for the passage of oil
field legislation. l believe W e need a law which will make it a criminal ofhnse
to hold landowners lease after any clause o such lease shall have been abro-
gated, and furthermore this Grim should be punishable by imprisonment in our
statep enetentaTy. also believe w need a rigid law regarding the drilling of
offset wells so that we may force the development of our oil field and thereby
bring prosperity to all of us living in Toole County.
1t seems to m that the various big interests are practically running things
to suit themselves; that il, riding rough shod owe the individual landowners
AM such a condition will continue until such time as suitable legislation is OBJ
tanned that will force a eqtabe adjustment of our affairs. do ct mean tom
unfair, bm. laws must be made which will eliminate the crooks and the gutons

A certain politician told m e a few days ago that We could 0 afford to

the reason that they might pull up" and leave and thus retnd the development

THE STANDARD is ANXIOUS

The Poplar Standard and Weinrich seem to think Wolf
Point, having been identified, along with other commun-
tiles two years ago, with the movement to save the county
before it was entirely bankrupt, should donate to the coun-
ty enough to pull it out of the hole, besides doing all it
promised. The Clean House offcials-Leeson, Young,
Anderson, Hardie, Kellogg, McFarlan, Bartholomew,
Brown and the rest have saved Roosevelt county at least
S125, 900 since they were elected. The records show it. Be-
sides this, Wolf Point has made good all her promises and
stands ready to do even more. Of course, if Wolf Point
could be persuaded to chip in five thousand it might help
some toward making good what the county had to pay for.
moving the county seat from Mondak to Poplar in 1920,
and toward what it has had to dig up for padded printing
bills. Surely the good people Of the county have not for
ais used to save" the county and dontate to it's treasury.
If they have forgotten, their old tax receipts and the public
examiners reports will remind them.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1924-08-14
KEEP A GOOD MAN ON THE BOARD

George Lesson is such a square and honorable county
commissioner, such a really valuable official for Roosevelt
county that the old Poplar gang are fighting him desper-
ately and pulling all kinds of strings to stir up sentiment
against him. We contend that his good and faithful service
minute yarns, they never bear investigation. If they did
they would have been brought out before.
If you really want honest, businesslike, economical man
agement of your county, vote to keep a good man on the
county board when you have him. Stop and consider who
are fighting Lesson and why. Unless you want to take a
chance on handing the county reins to Weinrich again,
vote to keep George Lesson working for your county. Re
member no one, not even yourself, can please everybody
all the time.

HAEFNER WILL MAKE GOOD CLERK OF COURT

In Louis Haefner, an old resident and businessman,
Banvile has a candidate worthy Of general support and it
is hoped this part of the county will do its full par. in vot-
ing him the nomination for clerk of the district court. We
believe he can be depended on for faithful and impartial
discharge Of the duties of the office. BainviIe has very
few candidates in the primaries, but those it has are good
men.
If you vote on the Republican ballot, vote for Louis Haef-
ner for clerk of the district court.
Listen to all the dirty dope the enemies Of the Clean
House administration wish to peddle, draw them out and
see how far they will go. They will probably tell you aw-
full things about John Anderson, George Lesson and 9TH
ers. Listen, but do not believe until you KNOW.
In Arthur Ryder the people have a clean and worthy
man for the office of representative in the legislature. A
man they can trust to be true to the interests of his constit-
Uents. A vote for Mr.. Ryder is a vote we'll placed. Look
for the name on the Republican ballot.
Hugh Marion is making a runaway race of it for county
attorney and will prove a real one when in office. Add
your vote to his assured majority.
This campaign is simply a continuation of the fight
for honesty and economy in our county government. Are
you with us?

"THE RAILROADS TURN"

"Motorists will find new cause for
caution, which is in many instances
reluctantly, if at all, exercised, when
approaching train crossings, by the
announcement that the railroads will
endeavor in the future to collect dam
g e of automobiles by suit, if nee
ssary when the cause of accidents
is clearly shown to be due to the
drivers negligence. 1t is claimed
that not infrequently trains are de-
rallied by colliding with motor vehic-
