OFFICIAL PAPER OF MCLEAN COUNTY
AND VILLAGE OF WASHBURN
STATE
JULY 20TH, 1906.
STATE CONVENTION.
As THE LEADER predioted, the
republican state convention re
nominated Governor Sarles and in
dorsed the state administration by
splendid majority. Notwith
standing the claims of the insur
gents before the convention, the
result showed that the people of
the state approved the state admin
istration and demanded its en
dorsement. McLean county was
in line with the people of the state
and cast its solid vote for Govern
or Sarles and the organization
ticket. The republicans of this
county are to be congratulated
upon their stand in the campaign
that was made in the county, and
the people of the county under
stand that THE LEADER was at all
times honest and fair with them in
advising them to stand loyally by
the republican administration.
THE LEADER has at all times been
square with the people of the
county and the confidence there is
everywhere in the honesty and fair
ness of this paper is something
more valuable than'any other pos
session.
The republican convention pass
ed a resolution calling for a direct
primary election and it is likely
that this will be the last state con
vention in North Dakota. If the
primary law passes, as now seems
probable, the candidates for office
in the state will go directly before
the people of the state for nomi
nation and there will be no election
of delegates. With the splendid
record made by its public officers
the republican organization of the
state need have no fear of referring
the matter of an indorsement di
rectly to the people.
There are no insurgents in Mc
Lean county now—all are republi
cans and will stand loyally" by the
ticket from top to bottom, both in
state and county. This will be the
policy of THE LEADER as a repub
lican newspaper. All loyal repub
licans will cast aside any personal
feelings or petty differences and
put their shoulders to the wheel
for the success of the entire repub
lican ticket.
Jamestown is coming
front. It is one of the
cities of the state.
to the
coming
The slope was solid for Gov
Sarles and his administration was
endorsed by a handsome majority.
The state will have a continuation
of the splendid business adminis
tration of Gov. Sarles.
The insurgents have no kick
coming over the state convention.
They were given
A
fair show and
they voted a slate ticket just the
•same as the regulars—the only
difference being the insurgents
ran short of votes.
The crop outlook in McLean
^county was never better and with
'a continuation of the present good
weather the harvest will be large.
The acreage of crop planted is
.nearly double that off last year.
Farmers are now busily engaged
the hay field and the crop is re
ported to be plentiful and of a good
quality. A scarcity of help is re
ported as it is almost impossible
to secure men who want to work
on the farms. The work in the
cities and villages is so plentiful
that all the surplus men are en
gaged. It may be that later in the
season the supply of men may
meet the demand.

In another column of this issue
will be found a notice to the citi
zens of Washburn calling a meet
ing for the purpose of organizing
a commercial club. Now this has
been talked over among a few and
in order to get the sentiment qf
the citizens of this vicinity on this
matter, it was deemed wise to call
a meeting and discuss the matter
pro and con. There are many
things that are passed up on ac
count of there being no concerted
action on the part of our citizens.
They are all willing to pull to
gether, but in order to pull to
gether successful there must be
organization. The first thing to
be done is to advertise our advan
tages to the world. We have the
fuel, the finest water in the coun
try and the best location. These
things could be set forth through
the aid and direction of a commer
cial club—one that would take an
interest in matters pertaining to
the best interests of the town and
surrounding country. More can
be accomplished through organiza
tion than by "individual efforts.
Last winter congress removed the
tax on denaturized alcohol and
there will be located in this state
a number of distillerys for the pur
pose of handling this product and
by working along this line, ad
vancing the many advantages, with
the aid of a wide-a-wake commer
cial club, a plant might be secured
for Washburn. There is one thing
sure if you do not ask, ye will not
receive. Just study this matter
over. We have just as good busi
ness men, up-to-date in all res
pects, and all that is needed to
set forth our advantages is organi
zation. The meeting has been
called for Monday evening and it
is hoped to see as many out as
possible.
There were 17 votes cast for the
straight republican ticket in the
state convention from McLean
county.
District court will convene in
Washburn July 30, 1906, for one
day only. This will be the chance
to secure citizen's papers under
the old law.
We were informed during the
campaign by the insurgent press
that the reformers were against a
slate being put up. At the state
convention the reformers had a
slate in the field just the same as
the "old gang," and they even
asked the delegates to sign up.
To AH Farmers in McLean.
The McLean County Fair Asso
cration have now nearly finished
grading of the race track on the
county fair grounds at Underwood.
The race track when completed
will be the best graded standard
race track in the state of North
Dakota, and will attract the best
horses. A number of stalls are be
ing built and the fence, grand
stand and other buildings will be
erected as soon as the lumber ar
rives. The grounds will be in ex
cellent shape for the county fair
which will be held in September.
Now it rests with the farmers of
McLean county to furnish suitable
live stock, agricultural products
for exhibit. The board of direct
ors earnestly request that all form
ers who possibly can, should give
special attention toward raising a
fine patch of different agricultural
{ect
iroducts from which they can se
some exhibits for the fair that
would be a credit to yourself and
an honor to the county. Those of
you who have well bred hones,
cattife, swine or sheep should -give
them special attention tfcat 'you
may have tome of them, in sltai
to exhibit at the cbunty 'fair. |B
member that an award of af lst,
2nd, or even 3d premium .for any
of your farm products or live stock
will distinguish you as a progree
ive, wide-a-wake, practical farmer.
Tour farm products will be in de
mandand at a good price your
live stock will be sought after by
other progressive farmers who de
sire to improve theirs and will then
advance tne price of what you have
to sell.
Let the farmers who possess any
spirit of progress respond.

PUT UP HAY.
A business man who keeps in
touch with the hay 'market urged
us to call the attention of our rea
ders to'the advisability of putting
up plenty of hay. It is true, it
looks as if there would be an
abundant hay crop here, but ad
vices received from outside point
to a shortage in many directions
and there is every prospect of a
good price for hay, notwithstand
ing the excellent local crop.
A letter from a party at Hock
Island says that they are paying
$11.50 a ton down there for Ne
braska hay, which, he says, runs
about the same as Dakota hay. We
know differently that Nebraska
hay isn't nearly so good as our
wild grass and if people are using
at $11.50 a ton down there, if they
had some. Morton county grass
baled they would pay for it.
At the same time, there is a
good deal of railroad building up
west, and the prospect is good for
a baled hay market. If the far
mers in this county don't happen
to think about this and would put
up no more than for their own use,
it would be a mistake. There will
be a lot of new settlers in the coun
try next year, too,—Mandaa Pio
