Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1900-10-11

equipped for the position the party has
rendered him the nomination for. His
pleasant nature. and gentlemanly bear
ing make him popular candidate. The
Golf family numbered among the earliest
settlers in eastern Cavalier county and
the election of 81. j. Golf as the party's
candidate for county treasurer is . wise
one. He is not only strong candidate
but will bring strength to the entire
ticket. II you want county treasurer
who will zealously guard the county
funds cast your vote for III. j. Golf.
The county auditors Office has been
filled for nearly four years by Robt:
Work, and very properly the policy OF
keeping good and tried man was adopt
ed by the independents and democrats.
When they met later, the republicans.
concluded they had no one within their
party ranks who could cope with him,
either in ability or popularity, SO endors-
ed the candidate of our party. The
recognition of Mr.. Work as . useful
county official is general among the
people. He has served the people faith
fully and his election is just as assured
as though the polls were closed and
votes counted. Republicans as we'll as
independent democrats will vote for him.
For the Office of register Of deeds John
Rylance has been renominated and we
believe it was the right and proper thing
to do. With the end of the year he
closes his second term. He has given
the office personal attention and the fine
condition in which the records have been
kept reflect high credit on the holder Of
the office. His continuance in office
means that the records of the county
will be IN the best and safest hands to
which they could be committed. We
always feel that good county official
should not be displaced simply for the
purpose of making room for new and
untried aspirant. The county in this
case will benefit by not making change
and the saving will iD turn affect the tax
payers who should make 1t their duty to
see that John Rylance is reelected
register of deeds by large majority.
OF the men re-nominnted by the in
dependents and democrats none have
proven themselves more entitled to q
continuation in office than Clerk of Court
Truax. 1t needle not the voice of news
paper to tell the people of Cavalier
county what kind of a public official he
Is. His successful attention to the
duties incumbent upon him speak of
themselves. His denomination as years
roll arouod show that hels the peoples
choice. In his Office he meets all the
people and from the time Of the first
meeting they appreciate his sterling
worth as man and a friend. He is 80
we'll and favorably known in every
portion of the county as to make his
election. again this fall foregone con-
clusion.
The people of Cavalier county have
always had implicit confidence in the
advice and legal attainments of States
Attorney Dickson and that is the main
reason that the independent and demo-
crat party we're careful to secure his re-.
nomination at their convention. Few
public officials have gained public con-
tidence and popularity 80 rapidly as has
States Attorney Dickson since coming
to the county His Office may be said
to be the most important and far reach
ing OF any on the list as all others seek
the solution of knotty problems and ask
legal opinions Of the states attorney.
Such reasons as these of themself suffice
to ask the people who vote to stop and
hesitate before making radical change.
The present incumbent, Attorney Dick
son has years OF experience in his pro-
fession and is careful and conservative in
all the duties of the Office. His integrity
as man and general uprightness of
character is what stamps our present
incumbent of the states attorneys Office
as worthy Of the vote and confidence Of
the people whose faithful servant he has
always been in the past.
Our fellow townsman, DIR. Jas. Semple,
has filled the Office Of county coroner the
past two years and has been selected BY
the party as it's candidate in the present
campaign. He is we'll equipped pro.
fessionally and has the principles Of
his makeup to justify him holding an
inquest on the corpse of republioanism
in this county after the election is over.
In Hon. H. p. Dorval as Judge of the
county court the fusion ticket has a
fayorite with the people. There is
probably no county Office which occupies
such small share Of public attention
as that of ct county judge and yet it is
one OF the most important in the whole
list. There are at least two occasions in
connection with the history Of every
resident when his affairs come in contact

marriage and the other is after death.
Judge Dorval has an exemplary official
record and the tone of his nomination in
the convention means nothing less than
q universal demand by the people that he
be returned for anotherte BY their
vote in the past the people of this county
have stamped with their approval the
continuing in Office Of men who labor
faithfully Tor the benefit of all. Such q
candidate is Judge Dorval whose official
record Of the past is without spot or
blemish.
In casting his vote for county superin-
tendent Of schools the voter should as
far possible disregard both political and
personal considerations and be governed
entirely by 9 desire to promote the
efficiency Of the schools. II this course
is generally pursued tho present
incumbent, p. j. Fox, will be elected
by Q greatly increased majority. Tie
standing maintained by the schools OF
Cavalier county with those in other parts
of the stats prove the acceptabiiity with;
which the duties OF the Office have been
looked after The educational infArAakat
