The "war horses of the Republican party" spoken of
are no others than L. S. Olson and Oscar Collins and
Jack OGrady and L. j. Onstad and Jack Bennett and
Ioe rAlias~ ana pned-
1t backed again when his friend Judge Conner had to
make the order in very biased trial in his behalf.
via lie" Onstad left the Clerk of Courts office few
years ago under a cloud and was County Attornev
uuIhg the days OF the seed grain swindle when he
heiu ara1t made payable to Sheridan County in the
sum OF SloOO for carload of flax seed sold thru the
Onstad elevator and only come across after the necI
accountant had traced it down. Jack OGradv of
course only stole S21O0 from the county to which he
PLEADED guilty and has only just now completed his
paroled sentence
Jack Bennett and Joe DOlin are both Republican
postmasters-but not such staunch Renublicar szvor
horses that they can support Rankin for co,orr -
DIXON Tor United States Senator though they did SUM-
port DIXON Tor Governor four years ago. Oscar was
getting little pap" them which he now homes 70 oct
from Erickson.
The EricksOn-for- Governor Club are surely nice
outfit. They will do Erickson lot of good The
above bunch hopes to connect up shortly with the bg
ship OF the Anaconda and get enough for pork chops
during the coming autumn though we fear they will
not be able to get much from the Republican campaign
committee.
We understand that this outfit has already assured
Wheeler and Erickson of the support of Plentywood
newspaper. We do not know whether the Producers
News is meant the Plentywood Herald-maybe
both. The Republican committeeman referred to in
L. SIS. story is other than himself L. S. does not
tell us whether the local postmaster will support Scott
Leavitt or some else for congress-maybe he
thinks that he too get an AL Smith appointment
after March 4th. Bennett seems a very active sun
porter of B. K. Wheeler lately
Since the above story went to the Tribune we IN
derstand that L. S. Olson has been elected county
chairman of the Republican County Central Commit
tee Maybe In this way l. S. and his right and left
hand men, Oscar and jack plan get their gloms onto
both the AL Smith swag the Hoover wad and the Cop
per coin.

REPUBLICANS. QUIT TICKET FOR ERICKSON
Old Timers of Sheridan County Refuse to
Stand for Rankin

No sooner had Wellington D. Rankin's NOM
inatiOn for governor on the republican ticket
been determined before a number of old time
war horses of the republican party in north
eastern Montana joined with the few local
democrats and formed an Erickson for Gov
ernOr' club.
This step was taken as a protest against
Rankn's nomination. The new club intends to
seek contributions and put on an aggressive
campaign in behalf of Governor Erickson.
Several members of this club, many of
whom have voted for more than so years, in
taking this step will come out openly in sup
port of democratic nominee for the first
time IL their lives. The secretary of the new
club was elected a republican precinct commit
teeman on Tuesday.
The first official act of the new club was
the sending of telegram by its president,
an old time, dyed-in-the-wool republican, to
Governor Erickson, as follows: Understand
Rankin nominated. Congratulate you upon the
weakness of your opponent
