The chairman did not want Burke to talk and C. A. John son was in the crowd. Why was he not called upon? But I then, Burke is a man of whom even his most bitter enemies feel proud to say to the visiting [listener "that is the governor lof our state." The people will •have a chance this year to say [whether they prefer this man, jivho is admired for his ability and independence or the man whom it was generally conced ed was selected as a candidate because he would do as he was told. Senator Hansbrough warns the temperance people that if Burke should be elected gover nor of North Dakota for a third term they are likely to be con fronted with local option Hansbrough has' made a tool of himself a great many times but never made a statement in his life that sounds more like an insane man. In the first place to change the constitu tion of North Dakota requires the consent of two legislatures and then a vote of the people. In the next place the prohibi tion law has been enforced more thoroughly under Gov ernor Burke and Attorney •General Miller than ever be fore in the history of the state Hansbrough is demented and should be placed in Jamestown along with his old friend Lord Thursby.—Minot Democrat Everything new and cLeap at A, Mikacbe 4c Co.^vvv As Governor Must be Determined by His Appointmeut ot a Sec retarv The Democrat lias at H!1 times argued that C. A Job nsim is not the big calibre of a man whom the people of this great state should fleet for governor He is not big enough nnd knows it and lor this rtnson has li hitnselt in the hands of the old gang believing that by allowing theiu to dietate his policies they Now Georgie comes out and proves what a diplomat lie is and just how competent he will be to fill the position of private secretary to a governor of North Dakota 1)3' falling into a trap prepared for him nnd making a bet that if Johnson is elected governor he'will be his private secretary. Should Johnson be elected governor the man he has prom ised the most important posi tion in bis cabinet has violated the laws of the land by making a gambling bet and then has further disfranchised himself as a voter by betting on the re sult of the election. A few days ago a prominent merchant of Plnza approached Smith and told him that he could not support Johnson for governor as he understood that the event of his election Tommy Poole of Bismarck was to be his private secretary. This George emphatically de nied and in order to make his denial convincing, offered to bet $2f) that lie would be John gon's private secretary. An agreement was drawn up and the bet made and placed in the hands of Stalle Hendrickson, of Coteau, who deposited the checks and the agreement in the safe of Wing & Haley of of Plaza, to be opened by Mr. Hendrickson after election and the money given to the win ning party. This is the man Johnson has promised to make his private secretary and entrust the af fairs of the state with in case he is elected. It is said that every position in the gift of the governor has been promised. One man told The Democrat Monday last that he had been approached that day with the promise of a good position if he would sup port Johnson but refused. The Johnson forces are getting des perate and realize their man has no chance of being elected unless they can barter away money, offices and threats to accomplish it. The people of North Dakota are not to be bought, bull-dozed or driven and Mr. Johnson will never come within 25,000 votes of sit ing in the executive chair.— Minot Democrat. y" £rj S I4- iii*. JOHNSON'S ABILITY would spend sufficient money to secure his election. When he lirst hccHtne a candidate this year he looki around Minot lor a man to manage his campaign and to do his dirty work but either he could not find a Minot man who would consent to accept the job or he would not trust one of his fellow citizens so he imported George i.^aFollette Hansbrough Smith from Motin traile county under a promise of making Georgie his private secretary. A private secretary supposed to be a man of abil ity, probity and diplomancy and from recent developments it would appear that Georgie in all that and then some. A few weeks ago be made him self famous by writing holders of farm mortgage loans, ad vis ing them that his papers—the Plaza Pioneer ami the Ryder Slews, were the proper medi ums of publication for in »rt gage loans and intimating that many foreclosures were to be made and published in his papers, all of which the poor farmer who lost his crop thi* year and who wants to he car ried over will appreciate.
