The Record announces display and local rates for single insertions and contract space. Rates include 25 cents per column inch for display, 20 cents for contract space, and 10 cents per line for locals. Advertising copy due Tuesday noon each week.
The piece lists Republican candidates for statewide offices led by George M. Young for Congress in the Second District and includes R A Newton, Frank Hyland, Tom Hall, H D Johnson, John Steen, Geo F Schafer, Harry D Carpenter, Jos E Kitchen, C E Knox, Oakes A D McKinnon, F P Gronavold, Alex Macdonald, and Elmer Anderson among others. It notes independents seeking Lynn J. Frazier via vote splitting to defeat J F T O Connor, while not wanting Frazier elected.
The writer argues that fall election chances favor the Republican nominee. They claim Frazier could win if party insiders manipulate nominations, noting past margins of Ladd over Perry and asserting party principles outweigh personal grievances in congressional elections.
The Postage Stamp’s recent issue is filled with personal abuse of the editor, a tactic the writer dismisses as irrelevant to facts. Miller accuses the Record of trying to fire him, while the author says they only relayed supporters’ statements about backing the Free Press if a new editor is hired to avoid whitewashing county fund squandering.
A Postage Stamp board of editorial writers argues that R. R. Hogue and the editor of this paper are portrayed as political twins, then retracts to claim they buck each other. The writer urges Miller and his allies to strike a mean proportional to reveal the truth and says both men run their own affairs.
The piece notes Kidder county endorses two independents to run with Elmer Anderson and Peter Barr for the legislature. Lars Langedahl, a farmer from Tuttle, and John Sleight, a Tappen lumber dealer and Fargo College alum, join the slate. They face four league candidates led by Rey Yeater. Yeater previously beat Anderson, though Anderson carried this county in the latest race.
