For the last three months, all the
newspapers, twenty or more Of them
with n or two exceptions in ten
or twelve adjoining counties in this
direction and of all parties have
advocated the nomination Of Henry

be up for action in November or
December next. Mr.. Marlborough il
n Of the exceptions; after remaining
silent until a majority Of all the re.
publican papers in North Dakota
have given Mr. Lords nomination al
most unanimous acceptance and com.
mendation it occurrv to Mr.. Hans.
borough that he is built about right
for Congress himself, and he proposes
to substitute his W name for repre-
sentative in place of Mr.. Lords for
Senator. This he regards as a direct
attack on Mr., Lords thoroughly e.
t.blished candidacy; it being unlikely
that Devils Lake would be able to
maintain "a corner" on Congressional
representation. Mr.. Lords candi-
dacy by his own desire, rests in
allegiance until the capital location
shall have been voted on, a. it will be
on the LIST Of October, and does not
in the least interfere with that ques.
ton.
On the contrary Mr.. Hansbor.
ough's candidacy for representative,
not only assails MI. Lord for senator,
but is understood by the citizens Of
Devils Lake, and Ramsey county, to
be in sharp competition with their
capital asp irations, in hat it
proposes to submit to the people of
the territory the name of Hansboro
for Congress, and Devils Lake for
capital at the same time, and on the
same ticket in October. They have
serious doubts whether the two things
can swim together.
