Quite little money changed hands

Upwards Of two hundred loads of
grain were marketed in this city on
Saturday and the merchants enjoyed a
good trade from the crowd of farmers
in the city.
Next week we will publish the Off
cial returns of the election held on the
9Th inst. This delay is occasioned by
the fact that the canvassing board has
not yet counted the vote.
Quite a number have expressed their
intention of coming in to attend
school this winter. Langdon has all
elegant school building and most
efficient corps of educators.
The ladies of the Methodist church
are arranging for an entertainment
that will take place during the APP
preaching holidays, the main feature
of which will be Japanese We'd
ding" Particulars later.
The Langdon DEMOCRAT is the only
Democratic paper in the state that is
able to produce a rooster. The straight
democrats ran away with everything
in sight on the county and legislative
tickets by big majorities.-G. F. Plain
dealer.
AS the cold weather approaches in
terest in lodge meeting is more general,
and the numerous fraternal orders in
Langdon are beginning to wake up for
an active winters work. Already All
improvement in the attendance is no.
ticeable.
E. Radford: The Republican must
have great faith in the ignorance of
the people when it presumed that a
single mistake in the CoURIER-DEMo-
Graf would lead intelligent voters to
imagine that the 18th of the month was
the 18th. saw the error the COURIER
DEMoCAT had made, but did not attri-
butte it to the undetermined motive as
cribed to it by the Republican.
The entertainment given last Friday
evening by Rube Allyn, the humorist
and dramatic reader, under the au-
spices of the A. o. U. w. was a sue
cessful and enjoyable affair, although
the attendance might possibly have
been larger. Mr.. Allyn possesses con-
siderable talent as an elocutionist and
impersonator and was repeatedly en-
cored. AS a single-handed entertainer
he certainly surpasses any that have
appeared before a Langdon audience.
It was splendid two hours entertain
ment.
The COURIER-DEMOgRAT has dis
covered that the country is on the eve
of widespread prosperity. Guess, yes.
All you have to do is to take look at
the election returns from the eastern
states and notice how the g. o. p. swept
the esrth-that's prosperity.-Republi-
can.
Yes, Bro. Kessler, the business out
look is Frightening every day and we
sincerely hope it may continue despite
the blight of republican victory.
In taking notice that the hall above
the school house is now undergoing
changes prior to the opening of the
intermediate departement that will
render it unsuitable for use as public
hall the fact is presented that the citi-
zens of Langdon will in the future be
depended on its city churches for enter
tsinments of public character. Why
q town like this should be reduced to
such resources is hard to understand
and shows the folly of Langdon folks
