It will therefore be seen that in appointing
Mr.. Chadbouruc 10 the board of railroad
commissioners, Governor Burleigh was act
ing IN accordance with the expressed wishes
of Republican support stronger than
vas presented by any other candidate. Ii
will be seen that very general desire exists
TO have this board restored again to the
