Local editorials discuss campaign spending by Truman Newberry and McCumber, the tariff debate in the U.S. Senate, and the nonpartisan league’s influence in North Dakota politics. Reports cover Hankinson News ownership change, Frazier’s senate bid, and calls for state industrial reform through farmer-led cooperative management to cut taxation and curb partisan excess.
In 1917 two young men take war work and grocery jobs. One earns $90 weekly, buys shoes he discards, and ends with nothing saved. The other, starting lower, becomes a manager earning $32 weekly and saves $400. When asked for a loan, the flashier earner remains broke, illustrating prudent finances.
Senator McCumber the longtime Republican leader and tariff committee chair lost the North Dakota primary to ex Governor Frazier by about 86 000 to 79 000 The defeat linked to state nonpartisan gains and a 1920 faux pas of aiding nonpartisan candidates rather than a broad anti McCumber wave The outcome affects national tariff politics but reflects state political shifts.
The Courier News notes Fargo as the hub for groups that harmed North Dakota farmers. It cites million dollar losses to Consumers' Stores, dues schemes for the Nonpartisan League, bank looting, and the Zealous banks.
