A. c. Miller losses
Hat Int the Ring

A. c. Miller, formerly member
of the legislature from Williams
county, n. D., where he made an
enviable record for legislation in
behalf of the farmers and work
ers, has filed his nominating pe-
tition for the office Of represen-
tative in the Legislature.
Politics are badly muddled in
North Dakota. Both Nonpartisan
Leaguers and League Bumpers
have candidates in the field
some whose records are not so
hot. Miller's hosts of friends VINO
are not satisfied with any of the
candidates have urged and insisted
that he submit his name to the
voters SO that they will have an
opportunity to put their crosses
after timber that has been tested
and found to be strong and true.
In submitting his candidacy,
Miller says:
''They say the NOnpartisan
League ( LANCER convention
was steam relied. Well, all DO
litical or economic organizations
use the steam-rOller method to
select officials. If progressive
candidates are to be endorsed
then there must be a pre-cOn-
ventiOn held. Yet this does not
mean that a full slate of pro-
gressives will be endorsed as the
office seekers will slip through
the sluice-way no matter how
much care is taken to keep him
out. On the other hand in order
to select a ticket of office seek
ers il also must be steam-rOlIed
in order to keep out progressive
candidates. This was done IN
the Williams county Wexford
convention. might add that
both conventions disregarded
the rule of endorsing candidates
by making nomination speeches
on the floor for some of the
candidates. MY program is:
