the head and front of the new political
opposition and the advocate of new
order Of things. Mr.. Patterson may also
decide to establish paper at Dickinson,
far out in the cattle country, to better
enable him to combat his opponents in
that part of the state. Editor McGahan
says that the prohibition Jaw is sure to
come up as An issue in the next cam
paign. In spite of the assertions made
TO the contrary he believes that prohibit
ton has made no progress in the western
part Of the state. The counties west OF
the Missouri river strongly favor resno-
mission, and Burleigh county, in which
is located the capital citv, would not
give prohibition majority. The people
who have come into the state in later
years he believes are not pleased with
the law. The slope hopes for the build
ing of the 500 road into Bismarck next
year. 1t will be Of great advantage to
the capital city.
