Kitchen Swamped by
Requests for Talks

J. A. Kitchen, who is running for
his fifth term as commissioner Of
agriculture and labor this year does
not intend to make formal cam
paign.
He has 50 many invitations to
speak at commencement exercises,
farm gatherings and other non-po-
litical meetings that he will have
little time to talk on purely political
subjects, he said. Anyway he feels
that meeting the people as he does
is more effective than an out-and-
out campaign. Kitchen was first
elected in the recall campaign in
1929 and has been reelected at
each subsequent election. He is an
independent.

CAMPAIGN NOW
WARMING UP IN
NORTH DAKOTA
Frazier Seems to Be FavOrite
Candidate As Race Gets
Under Way
GETS LOTS OF SUPPORT
DissensiOn Exists Among l. v.
A.'s-Nonpartisans Settle
Differences
GETS LOTS OF SUPPORT

They're at the post in North Da-
kota's biennial state election classic.
And it's the same old horse race.
There are no overnight entries
and If there is a favorite in the
fiel.' it probably is Senator Lynn j..
Frazier, who formally begins his
speaking campaign at Wahpeton,
Monday night.
North Dakota is a strongly Re-
publican state. So far as national
affairs are concerned the issue is
sharply defined in farm relief, tar
iff revision and revision Of grain
grades in this state.
Endorsed by the Nonpartisan
League wing Of his party within
the state, which has always voted
solidly for him in his campaigns
for reelection, he is the beneficiary
Of much support from Republicans,
who while not agreeing with the
Nonpartisan League find the 1nde-
pendent faction less acceptable.
Announcements Of support for
him come from many unexpected
sources. Gerald p. Nye was the
first beneficiary Of this sentiment
two years ago. 1t is apparently in
creased in the present campaign.
Republican leaders in the state hope
for reunited party, free from
factional differences. They are paw
ing the way for this day with con-
sistent support of Senator Frazier.
Nestos at Disadvantage
Former Governor Nestos is placed
in a most disadvantageous position
by this condition. He is made to
appear simply as an office seeker
striving to realize . long-cherished
ambition. His mistakes have not
been forgotten. Neither have Sena-
tor Frazier's. But they have been
forgiven.
Furthermore, Mr.. Nestos is re-
cei,.ing rather shabby trcatm in
his own camp. The Independent
newspapers are paying little atten-
tion to his candidacy. There is an
apparent disposition concentrate
on the election Of Shafer for gov
ernor and upon the Independent can
did:.tes for the industrial commits
sion. If there is Jonah to be
thrown to the whales in the Inde-
pendent camp it ,ppears that there
is tacit agreement as to who it
shall be. It is Mr.. Nestos.
He has a reputation as vote get
ter and a large personal following
of warm friends. How far they will
be effective in overcoming this sit
uation is problematical.
Meantime the practical men at
the head of the two campaigns were
busy ironing out differences and ap-
plying the arL,ca to old sores.
Differences regarding who shall
be in charge Of the campaign of the
T,uublican candidates endorsed by
the Nonparti.an League were ap-
parently settled at conference of

NONPARTISANS
SETTLE THEIR
DIFFER ENCES
Details Concerning Basis of
Agreement, However, Are
Kept Secret

Although Nonpartisan leaders to-
day had apparently reached some
basis Of agreement to compose their
intrafactional differences, it was be-
ing held dark secret.
At a conference yesterday at
which the supposed basis Of agree
ment was outlined. l.. j. Siljan, Sec
retary to Governor a. &. Sorlie and
Nonpartisan candidate for auditor,
was appointed to make whatever an
nouncement should come from the
meeting. He had nothing to say last
night.
Today he went into a conference
with himself and emerged with the
statement that he still had nothing
to say but that an announcement
probably would be made later.
The basis of agreement, it was
rumored, provided for the elimina-
ton of r. A. kinzer as campaign
manager and recognition Of the
rights and powers of the Nonparti-
san executive committe J, headed by
r. w. Frazier Of Crosby. but that
Frazier agreed to name someone as
campaign manager who would be
acceptable to the candidates for
state offices.
The fight, which started several
weeks ago and which has held U. S.
Senator Lynn j. Frazier here for a
week in hitherto vain effort to iron
out the difficulty, resulted from the
development of open antagonism be-
tween members of the executive
committee and Kinzer.
Announcement Of the basis of the
agreement, it was indicated, has
been held up pending the arrival
Of Fred Argast of Moffit, vice
chairman of the executive commit
tee. R. w. Frazier was the only
member of the executive committee
who took part in yesterdayq's con-
ference.

GAS BUSINESS
ON INCREASE
Shipments Into State This
Year Are Far Ahead of
Same Period in 1927

The business of providing oil and
gasoline for North Dakota's motor
cars is one of the fastest growing
in the state, records of the state
regulatory department show.
Twenty-Five new oil companies
have entere dthe state during the
last year and those already estab-
lished have erected many new fill
ing stations, accordig to c. s. Ladd,
state chemist, who tests all oil and
gasoline to see that it meets the
standard set by law.
Gasoline shipments received in
the state during the three-month pc
riod from January / to April 81 this
year were 100000 gallons in ex-
ces. Of the figures for the same Pc
riod a year ago, the Department.
records show. Shipments of kero-
sene during January and February
decreased 354,898 rallons as COM
pared with the first two months Of
1927.
A tabulation showing the number
Of gallons of kerosene and gasoline
tested by the department follows:

The wireless operators of the Cit

contact. The airship has a reserve
radio with an ocumu!ator which can
be used even though the motors are
not operating and this fact has
served to make the airship's long

of the base ship.

ject This means that a couple of his
preiudices nave crossed wires. Then his
statement Of opinion will be halting,
often ending up in contradiction of
terms.
Preiudices may express themselves in
other ways. Some men think every po-
liceman is tyrant, every traffic regu-
lation curtailmert of personal liberty.
Such prejudices represent something
that has been thrust en- their minds at
some time or other In order to trace
them to their roots 1t Is often necessary
to go back to the early years of child
hood. when most of our prejudices were
acquired.
After all this it may be worth while
to attempt a definition of a prejudice.
If you analize the word prejudice you
find that it means judgment before facts
are presented. The older these pre- judg-
mentS are the more do they take on the
appearance of truth We accept them
without question and go merrily on our
way. confidently believing that we have
arrived at conclusion that will admit
of no contradiction.
The vast majority of our judgments
belong in the column of prejudices or
snap judgments. Somehow it seems
natural to draw conclusions before we
have exhausted the possibilities which
might possibly go along with particu-
lar situation.

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JASTROW.

pie temperamentally hysterical MANY
OF the most attractive and useful mem
bers of the race are so.
They give way to emotion easily. feel
deeply and strongly and live largely
on the profoundly stirring emotions of
LIE. They are intense, also a little ln-
stable, little impulsive. a little un-
reliable and irregular and difficult and
some of them far more than a little.
Wagner, a notable example of the
artistic temperament, relates that he
allowed every wave of emotion free
play to take possession of him as it
would. 1t is inevitable that such sem
sitive persons should be easily irritated,
easily hurt in their feelings and sensi-
bilities. The ugly gives them a sharp
pain and when things go wrong they
are upset, and being so delicately poised
1t doesn't take much to upset them.
Yet Of such stuff are many artists
made; they must accept the strengths
as well as the weaknesses of their tenn
permanent.
We can't have creative art without
deep feeling and the price paid for it
Is the tendency to emotional upset.
The too free indulgence in tempera-
ment isn't good for anybody, artist or
not. Many who fall back on the excuse
of an artistic temperament are far more
victims of an undisciplined tempera-
ment than artists There are any
number of we'll poised artists who have
themselves we'll in hand and accept
their responsibilities as human beings,
like the rest of us. Unquestionably
temperamental persons are more diff
cult to educate; they respond less
readily to routine; they are full of
strong impulses not easily controlled
They have the same problem that we
all have, to direct our temperament to-
ward mental fitness
1t won't do to confine the artistic
temperament too closely but life of
unrestrained emotion is a life of dis
sipation. Respect the artistic tempera-
ment whether you have it or not, but
If you have it. remember that you will
do more with it if you train 1t in the
ways of mental fitness.
