Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1896-10-22
The W TIMERS.
Good Men Were Nominated By
The Democratic and III
dependent Parties.

The support Of every intelligent
voter is invited for the entire ticket
that heads the columns Of the
DEMOCRAT. We invite this sup
port, not IN behalf of the parties
placing the nominations in the
field alone, but in behalf of the
great mass Of the people, i'll the
cause oe good government for the
common people, for right and
justice and the prosperity of the
country.
Our county ticket is good re-
preventative ticket, acknowledged
by its opponents to be the strong
est ever put up and is composed
of the county's best and ablest
citizens, representing Ill interests
and all sections. Its election means
good clean, honest and economi-
cal administration of county affairs
and should be voted from top to
bottom. The ticket is good one.
Vote for it.
LEGISLATIVE.
The Legislative ticket presented
by the democrats and Independents
is strong one and the men placed
in nomination have lived in the
county for years while their fit
ness for the position is beyond
question. Fhe democratic nomi-
nee, Mr.. J. B. Boyd, is one Of
Langdon's most popular citizens
and has made himself so by his
honest business principles and his
cheerful and generous disposition.
His active interest in the welfare
of the city has been of great value.
During the two terms he served
this city in the capacity Of mayor
he has advocated every measure
that has made our city what it now
is. Mr.. Boyd, not only commands
the respect OF every citizen, Lut
all willingly conceed his ability,
sound judgment and fitness for the
position i'll which the voters of
Cavalier county are sure to place
him. In Mr.. John Butterwick, the
independents put up one Of the
best men within the lines of their
party, and while we are not as we'll
acquainted with Mr.. Butterwick as
we are with his colleague, Mr..
Boyd, we have heard nothing but
good words of him. Milton ard
the south end of the county are
united on him and the DEMOCRAT
feels sure that he will make a
splendid representative. He is one
of Cavalier county's pioneer sett..
lers who has been successful in all
his undertakings since coming to
Cavalier county. The nominees of
the ticket for the legislature make
a strong team, one that conimends
itself to the thoughtful voter and
will, we feel sure, be elected.
COUNTY TREASURER.
The present Incumbent Of this
Office, John l.. Robertson, who is
the unanimous choice Of all parties
for rec ection this fall, is one of
the county officials who can point
with pride to his administration of
county finances during the past
two years. His friends in ever,
section of this county are legion.
Always found at his post attend
ing to business, with courteous at
tention to all and Il clean balance
sheet, it is natural that the voters
demand his being retained as
guard of the county cash box for
the ensuing two years. Honest
John l.. Robertson hes we'll earned
the unanimous endorsement ter
dered him by Cavalier county's
citizens.
COUNTY AUDITOR.
For the important office of audi
tor of Cavalier county the indepen
dents and democrats have selected
gentleman admirably fitted fo1
the position in Robt Work, whose
sterling worth and feulty to the
