Why you should vote for Hon.

WHY you should vote for Hon.
G. w. Plain for senator: Because
he has proven himself to be an
able, honest and capable represen-
tative of the best interests of
Cavalier county, and is a man
whose personal character and in
tegrity are above reproach. He is
a man who has stood ever ready to
protect the interests of the farmers
against gang politicians and COR
rupt corporations. He is man
who has done more to advance the
interests of Cavalier county and
help the poor, struggling settlers,
than any other man in the county
today. His interests are large and
he will always be found voting
right on every question that comes
up for consideration in the senate
chamber. Every voter in the coun-
ty should see that his Y is placed
in the right column next Tuesday
for our next senator, Hon. G. w.
Plain.

LAST week the Republican e

LAST week the Republican ex-
posed the political cards-it had
heretofore concealed-and admit
ted that the legislative ticket is
the sum total of the party's hopes
and expectations in the present
campaign. Their county ticket
being merely ';stool pigeon" for
the entrapping Of the independent
voters to cast ballots to elect gold
bug republicans to the Legislature
next winter to subserve the in
terests of Hansbrough in the choice
Of the next U. S. Senator. The
desperate straits into which their
campaign has drifted, are clearly
shown by the futile efforts Of Hans
local managers to mislead the
voters by circulating false rumors
regarding the past records of Hon.
Chas. W. Plain and Hon. Jas.
Dobie, the fusion nominees for the
senate and house respectively.
Each Of their political roorbacks
have been proven false and refuted.
1t is expected, however, that now,
at the last moment, when no oppor-
tunity will be afforded for reply, q
last volley Of campaign rot and
SANDER will be published stimuli
taneously by all of the five republi-
can organs, 1t remains with the
people whether they will place any
credence in them, or will stand by
the proven statements to the con-
trary that have from time to time
appeared in these columns during
the campaign. The entire fusion
Legislative ticket is composed of
men whose standing among their
fellow citizens is such as can be
proudly pointed to by the parties
nominating them. All three are
thoroughly alive to the interests of
county and state-and will be
elected.

ACCORDING to ,Tudpe Santer

ACCORDING to Judge Sauter it
makes a great difference in law
whether or not you make your
fight at the opening of conven-
ton and then leave OF stay in the
convention until you take a vote
striking at the very existence of
your party identity and the prin-
ciples for which you have fought
long and earnestly. 1t did not ap-
pear to have entered the head of
the judge that all was harmonious
in the Independent convention Of
Sept. Both, down to certain point
when honest men could no longer
participate and retain their self
respect. If it did-he did not give
it utterance. It is we'll that the
judges reasoning is law-because
it is not common sense.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03
lot common sense.

REMEMBER that in marking your
ballot Dext Tuesday that an X
mark in the square directly under
meath the party designation
"Democrat" means vote for every
candidate on the democratic legis-
lative and county ticket. To vote
the fusion state ticket place a SINH
lar X mark below the heading
'Independent and Democrat" in
the column to the left Of the demo-
cratic. Undisputed authority has
been obtained that this is correct.
If you wish to vote the state, legis-
lative and county ticket straight
this will both simplify and facili-
tate the matter and is according to
the law.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03

TAXPAYERS are most interested
in the class of legislation that most
directly affects them. At this time
we would refresh the minds of the
voters by calling attention to
the fact that it was Senator
Plain who secured the passage of
bill through both houses which
limited the fees of a sheriff
for mileage in collection of delln-
quent taxes to the actual number
number of miles travelled instead
of charging each individual the
cost Of making the trip from
the county seat. Previously it
had been the practice Of sheriffs
throughout the state to serve from
twenty to thirty sets Of papers dur
ing single trip. The enactment
Of this law made difference of
several dollars to all delinquents
herein Cavalier county.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03

WE understand from rival
authority that Judge Sauter openly
remarked at Grand Forks on Tues
day evening of this week that his
decision in the injunction case that
day would cost the Independent
Democrat state ticket 400 votes in
Cavalier county. Judge Sauter is
not as we'll acquainted with the
voters of Cavalier county as he
might be OF he would have given
them credit for more intelligence.
If that unjust and unwise decision
does not add 200 more votes to the
independent democrat majority in
Cavalier county we are very much
mistaken in the temper of our
people generally without regard to
party and do not read the signs
Alright.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03

IT looks as though the views of
the editors Of the Republican and
Times are at variance as to the
outcome Of Tuesdays election in
this county. "Cush" in his paper,
the Times, admonishes the repub-
licans and their side pards-the
political orphans that they must
hump themselves if they would ex-
pect to ride on band wagon in
stead of in hearse, while on the
other hand Editor Noodle, of the
Republican, gives 'em a jolly that
its ''dead easy" strews roses over
the thorny path the candidates are
travelling, and winds up with q talk
about big majorities and clean
iwalk-aways. The cause and effect
of such wide divergence of
opinion is, to say the least, signifi-
cant.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03

1t has been generally understood that
the Independents nominated John But
terwick for county auditor. According
to the official nominations Robert Work
received the independent nomination.
Something strange about this.-Mllton
Globe.
Nothing strange about it in the
least. Robert Work received the
nomination from both factions of
the Independent party and was
duly certified as such nominee.
The only thing that is really
strange is the fact that Mr.. Butter
wick appears in the list Of nomi-
nations at all. He was not nomi-
mated in the Republican conven-
ton, but was accepted as the nomi-
nee of the Independent party, and
as the Independent party made no
such nomination, and there being
no vacancy for a committee to fill,
we do not see just where Mr.. But
terwick is at-although he was
certified up as the republican
nominee. ........ .....
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-11-03
THE COURTS DECISION.

We, as laymen, have always
been under the impression that
what is known in law as an in
junction, will only be granted by
a court where all injury is
threatened or about to be commit
ted by one person or party against
another and for which the injured
party had not sufficient remedy
at law. But according to Judge
Sauter, we are obliged to &C
knowledge our error and conclude
that an injunction can be granted
for any old thing-po]itical.
We do not believe that the pro-
verbal Philadelphia lawyer would
be able to point out to al unpreju-
diced mind where the republican
nominees could possibly be in
jured by placing the Independent
Democrat ticket in the Indepen-
dent-Democrat column Of the
official ballot. All Of the parties,
who appeared as plaintiffs in the
case have elected to have their
names appear in the republican
column of the ballot, and so testi-
fed under examination. Under
the law passed by the republican
legislature of 1897, the name of
any nominee can only appear upon
the ballot but once. Taking the
above as facts can any thinking
man of common sense point out
where the nominees of the repub-
lican ticket would sustain any in
jury by having the names of the
MISREPRESENTATION nominees
follow the names of their state
| ticket on the ballot, unless 1t may
be that by so doing it would swell
the democratic majority in Cavalier
county and thus work an injury
not only to republicanism but to
every Office holder and Office seeker
of that party.
We do not believe that the people
of Cavalier county are so dense
that they cannot see through SC
fimsy scheme and we are very
much mistaken in their calibre
manliness and love of fair fighting
and fair politics, if they do not
resent it and resent it heartily on
Tuesday next.

down and hold a convention by himself,
he would ask the court to hold that that
would be the Independent party"
