Thompson, candidate for Superin-

In many respects it is an interesting
document because there is no specific
mention of President Hoover although
there is definite pledge of allegiance
to the Republican party.
This then is the document the Re-
publican party offers to the voters of
North Dakota and should not be con-
fused with other issues injected in
the heat of campaign enthusiasm.
In other editorials, The Tribune will
set forth the platform of the Demo-
Gratis of North Dakota and also the
campaign pledge of another group
which calls itself the Real Repub-
lican Party" to distinguish them from
the Regular Republican Party" which
is the title selected by the Norparti-
san League factions.
North Dakota voters have a rather
varied political menu offered this
year.
Discussion of the bill-of-fare will
be completed by The Tribune shortly.
