Ills Your Duty TO Vote.

Before another issue of the RECORD
reaches its subscribers the people of
North Dakota will have cast their first
ballots for state officers. The new com
monwcalth will as matter of course go
Republican, and the only question is one
of majorities. Enthusiastic members of
the party predict that the Democrats will
ascend the saline stream with minority
of from $4,000 to 10000 votes. More
conservative guesses place the Republican
majority at from 10000 to $4,000. Every
Republican voter in this county should
make it point to go to the polls on cleo
tion day and help swell the majority. 1t
is very important that the new state and
every county and every township therein
should poll its full Republican vote, as
representation at the next state, legisla-
tive and judicial conventions of the party
will be based on the vote at the coming
election. In other words, If Emmons
county polls a light vote for the state
ticket she will have but few delegates aud
little influence at the next state c0nven.
tion small vote for Worst, Belden and
Lilly means that Emmons county, instead
of seven or eight delegates, will have but
three or four delegates present. the next
time members of the legislature are to be
nominated. Every Republican vote that
is not polled for Walter H. Winchester
proportionately reduces the representa-
ton of our county the next time that del.
egates meet in the Sixth district to noml-
nate u candidate for judge. Our chance
for future influence in the counsels OF. the

The Candidate for Judge.

Every Republican in Emmons county
should be particularly careful to see that
the name Of Walter n. Winchester is on
his ticket. It would be an unsatisfactory
victory to the Republicans of North Da-
kota if it should come to pass that in one
of the judicial districts Democratic CAM
dldate was elected But there is not the
remotest chance-not even the ghost of II
chance--that Mr.. Winchester will be de
feated. There are eighteen counties in
the district. There is no reason to dup
pose that the Republican nominee will
receive minority in more than two or
three of them. And--the people of the
other counties of the district may depend
upon it--Emmons county will not be one
of the Two or three. If any Republican
county in the district should 60 bodily
over to the democratic nom inee, what
would it avail? He would be elected any
way, and the republicans of the loyal
counties could have--would havc--noth-
ing but contempt for the trcachcry which
sought his downfall Another thing
The constitution empowers the district
judge to appoint q county attorney where
a county has failed to elect. We do not
know IN how many counties of the dis
trict vacancy exists, as it does exist in
Emmons; but, if the democratic nominee
should win, he would certainly appoint a
lawye of his political faith to each vaca ut
position. Mr.. Winchester is competent
and courteous gentleman. He is an
old union soldier. He is strongly in.
dorsed by the newspapers of his old New
York home. Those of our people who
knew him there speak well of him. He
has given general satisfaction as superin.
tendent of schools of Burlegh county.
lie is the fairly nominated candidate of q
fairly constituted republican convention.
He Is the candidate of the republican
party. Hc is a lawyer of good ability.
