P. McHugh has been appointed post
master at Langdon. Mr.. McHugh was
the appointee of Hansbrough, and was
opposed by Congressman johnson whose

party of G waller county is emphasized.

feelings for both McHugh and Mcmillan,

peace in that county until-both Of 'em
get post Office, and in the mean time
no other republican need to run for office
IN that county.-Pembina Express.
