AN EMPTY HoNoR-Clinton D. Lord,
formerlA of this city. has been nominal
for state treasurer. The Grafton Advo-
cate, democrat paper says:
The democratic convention at Fargo
could not have nominated more hit
person for treasurer of the new state
than the one they did, viz: {. D. Lord OF
Park River. Mr.. Lord has been an &C
tive banker fol number of years, COM
ing to Park River frsm Melrose, Mimi,
some four years since. AS cashier of the
bank of Park River he has, by his bust.
hess tact, built up good patronage for
the bank at that place. He has always
been recognized as an able fnancier. and
has no superior as an accountant in
North Dakota. Many seemingly better
offers have been made for his services
than the one he has, but as he is one OF
the principle stockholders in the bank
he has not accepted. Mr.. Lord is one OF
that class of men, whom to meet is to
know and trust. Any comparison be.
tween Mr.. Lord and Mr.. Booker is out
of the question as person has only to
know the two men to note the formers
superiority in every respect. Mr.. Lord
is assured of a large majority in Penn
bina, Mr.. Booker's own county. In
fact in Pembina Mr.. Booker is only con-
sidered Judge LaMoure's proxy, and we
greatly mistaken if the people of North
Dakota are willing to hand the purse
strings over to such man as LaMoure
is known to be. Support and vote for
c. D. Lord and thus show your indie
pendence and appreciation of true merit
and ability.
