No man in Dakota has done more for

Campbell, and when the time arrives
for the distribution OF substantial re
wards the people will show him that
his efforts in their behalf are appreci-

in the practise OF law ut Yankton, and
his long service as U. S. attorney, in
which capacity he had to meet and con-
tend with the most prominent lawyers
of the northwest, has well fitted him
for successful practice. From per-
sonal observation (and the writer has
spent a great deal Of time in the court
room at Ysnkton) we can say there is
not more earnest or untiring advocate
in the territory than Judge Campbell,
and we can heartily recommend him to

The many readers of this paper who
have purchased seeds of Il. n. Lang,
the Live Scotsman, of Baraboo. Wis,
VIII be pleased to learn of his recent
election to The mayorship of that city.
Mr.. Lang is, we believe, the youngest
man ever elected to that important po-
sition in the state and although but 80
years of age, has proved himself to be
a man of sterling integrity, indomitable
will and an earnest wideawake business
man. BY his energy and square deal
ing he has established in this north
western country IA seed business Of
which all should be proud, and he
should, and has, received the hearty
support of our northern farmers and gar
deners to such an extent that he will
the coming winter issue n hundred
thousand catalogues, which viii be dis
tributed gratuitously to all who apply.
The confidence reposed in him by his
fellow citizens in eiecting him to the
office of mayor, is positive evidence that
he bears the same reputation ut home
that he does abroad, and persons wish
ing live northern seeds sannot do bet
! ter than to secure them from him.
