A Dakota Farmer critique targets a full page advertisement for the state ticket, praising campaign organizer Dick Lyons and accusing Republicans of machine politics. The piece mocks the ad’s logic, notes the writer’s suspicion, and portrays the campaign as a bold but feeble effort led by well connected figures.
