Editor Jewell says of one who is we'll
and favorably known in Bismarck:
Fred bennett, who will be remembered
as a member of the legislature four
years ago, and who has since been

graduated from the Columbia law school
last week with high honors. I believe it
is Mr.. Dement'S purpose to return to
North Dakota next year, and practice
law. He is a hard worker and one of
the most popular Of senatorial secre.
taries. Mrs. bennett is as charming as
ever, and asks frequently regarding he1
old time Dakota friends.
