ANorwegian Congrcssman-Hausbr
After Senator Pierce's Scalp.
There is a large quantity Of political fun in
North Dakota just now and there is promise OF
much more. NJ. N. johnson has been elected
to Congress. He is a Norwegian and
a clever politician; clever enough to
beat Hansbrough for the nomination.
Johnson's opponent was J. d. Benton,
and although johnson has quite a comfortable
majority Benton will contest his title to the
seat The House being reliably democratic
Mr., Johnson's chances may or may not be
worth having.
The fact that Hansbrough was beaten for the
congressional nomination has not taken that
gentleman out of politics. He has tasted blood
as it were, and wants more. just now he ia
after Senator Gil Pierce's scalp and
he really believes he will get it.
Hansbrough says that Pierce is not lin it,
that his principal antagonist in the senatorial
contest will be w. F. Ball. Mr. Ball is not
over friendly toward Senator Pierce. Some
time ago Mr.. Ball was q candidate for an United
States judgeship. but was sat upon by the
Senator; now Mr.. Ball and Mr.. Hansbrough
will combine their forces and the probabilities
are that the combination will inure to the beue-
fit Of Mr.. Hansbrough.
