Well I've been in North Dakota
: for several days talking Republi-
canism to the people. I was at
Devils Lake, Minot, Bathgate and
other points, closing at Grand
r Forks last night where we had a
splendid meeting. I like North
Dakota and am especially pleased
t with the prohibition law-which
) had not favored. You have a fine
: people, hardy, thrifty and vigorous
with intelligence of the highest
order. 1 went to Yankton, S. D..
Twenty-Five years ago, all this
country then was a great American
desert. Now you could not find a
nicer, brighter city than Fargo
anywhere. [ thought when the
major came here nearly a quarter
of a century ago, he was LEAVING
us for a wilderness Of sage brush.
If [ were a younger man [ might
chance the amazing possibilities
here, but being too old to move, I
may send some of my boys. I am
invited to visit Chautauqua next
summer and hope to be able to do
SO. I am delighted with North
Dakota and it's intelligent people.
