K. Hamilton, who this year enters
politics for the first time. but has been
a resident of Elgin township since the
first pioneer settlement of the county.
He is a farmer and has done we'll He
also has an enviable record as a town
ship official for long term of many
years. While further evidence of his
ability to properly ill the office sought
is shown in the satisfaction given while

education and intelligence required to
efficiently serve the people in this public
Office and if elected will we feel sure
make as great success as ne mas done
in farming. Mr.. Hamilton is an old
resident here and is vouched for by all
his friends. In utlyng parts of the
county where he is greeting the people
at the meetings being held he is steadily
gaining new friends. The clean and
vigorous campaign he is making leaves

The campaign which precedes the
olecton to be held on November 9Th is
rapidly shortening up and two weeks
from next Tuesday the voters of Cava-
]ier county will 20 to the polls and
name their choice for legislative and
county office. This year there are
many new faces in the field of politics.
Quite few of them appear on the
ticket of the democratic party, and in
order to thoroughly familiarize our
readers with the men who ask their vote
and inhunce at the polls we have. as far
as practical, had Photographic half-tone
cuts made of the nominees on the ticket.
In this way the write-up of the person
mel of the various candidates will be
rendered more attractive and afford the
solicitor of support to come into more
individual contact with those whose
votes they ask.

This is a campaign year in which tie
republican newspapers over the state
are doing candidates on the democratic
ticket an excellent and valuable service
as press agents. The unstinted praise
and adherence truth in the following
report of a meeting addressed at Lidger-
wood by Hon. John Burke, the demo-
cratic nominee for governor, is reproduce
ed from the columns of the Lidgerwood
Broadaxe of last week issue
Despite the extremely bad weather,
cold and with a high wind, Hon. John
Burke, candidate for governor. was.
greeted with full house at the opera
hall last Monday evening. He is not an
orator, nor given to fine flights of rhe-
toric. Rather he is a plain speaker,
talking so simply that anyone may
understand. He is convincing in his
manner and made distinctly good i'm
preston. His speech was the least
partisan for a campaign of anything we
have ever heard. 1t was simple des-
cription of conditions as they are, COM
pared against back ground of what
they should be. And they needed no
artificial contrasts or high lights to
make them look black. The simple re-
cital of them brought them home to
every mind. The man, John Burke, is
certainly earnest and honest and he
should be our next governor. He was re-
peatedly applauded and given the ut
most attention throughout the address.

warm welcome on his return into the
field of politics is E j. Fox who becomes
a candidate for the Office of Supernten-
dent of Schools again, only upon the
earnest solicitation of his friends from
all over the county. Everyone knows
that as county superintendent in the
past he has shown himself as we'll able
to cope with the difficulties which sur
round that Office Mr. Fox possesses all
the educational qualifications demanded
by law aud in addition thereto is known
as having been for Il long time in years
past one of the most efficient and faith
full occupants that important Office has
ever known. A vo:e for e j. Fox as

legislative nominee in this district, but
for private reasons declined to accept
the nomination rendered bim at time
when it was impossible to select man
who would fill the vacancy satisfactorily

FORTIErH DISTRICT.
The ticket of the democrats in the
Fortieth Legislative district can be
given the same substantial endorsement
as to worth of recognition and qualltica-
tion to serve as is accorded above to the
candidates in the Eighteenth District.
The reliability of r. B. Laing, of Milton,
to be entrusted with the confidence OF
the people of the Fortleth district as
their representative in the state senate

For the lower house in the Fortieth
district +. Thibaudeau, of olga, has a
record for citizenship and public
service in his home township that is of
itself indicative of his capacity to do
we'll at Bismarck. We do not need to
do much newspaper talking" to the
readers of the eastern part of Cavalier
county or attempt to tell what kind of a
man Mr.. Thibaudeau is as everybody
knows we'll of him The same can be
said of Peter Zettel, who resides at Mt.
Carmel IN the western part of the dis
trict. For years past MIR. Zettel has
taken an active part IN public affairs
serving the township in which he resid-
es for over twelve years as township
clerk. He is a man of more than aver
age business capacity and as to his
standing among those who know him
best it is unanimously agreed that he
can take to Bismarck with him an ex-
perience in the conduct of matters which
have close connection with the people
and especially with the farming element
which has the greatest bearing on public
affairs in this state. If elected the
above ticket will do all that any set oi
men could do for the county anC
state.

but who is going to make a strong run
for the office is d. w. Barker He is
among the number who figure in politics
this year for the first time, but his
advent is accompanied with the know
ledge by the people that his record as
citizen in private life and as an official of
his township has never needed to be
apologized for. He is an honest and in
dustrious farmer in Manila township
He is man possessed of exceptional
ability. Has been engaged in teaching
and educational work and brings both
qualification and character in his candi-
dacy for the important Office of register
of deeds. We are satisfied that the
democratic party Of this county made
no mistake in the selection of D. w.
Barker as its candidate for this place on
the county ticket.

Mr. Mckechney is a Cavalier county
product boy and man and as man
is the right man personally and politi-
cally for the position sought.
STATES ATTORNEY.
For states attorney the democrats
have named young lawyer of we'll
known ability, who has attained for
himself place OF prominece at the bar
IN practice of over six years in this
county. He has for several years been
a member of the law firm of Dickson
and johnson. Attorney johnson can
claim Cavalier county as his boyhood
home and has made his own way up
ward his preparatory work being as a
teacher in our equity schools, thence to
the state university where he completed
his education and took up the study of
law. No one questions his fitness and

has friends enough to give him ma

stituents He farms quite an extensive
acreage in the locality where he lives;
has taken quite ar active part in the
welfare of his neighbors as we'll as him
self. He is safe and honest man for
the people of the western part of Cava-
lier county to send to the legislature,
and man whom every citizen, regard

help to elect as M mber from the

JOHN BURKE, il his speech at the opera
house Thursday evening, pointed out the
uselessness, except for champagne drink
ing, of the railroad commission this state
has had. What has railroad commits
sion ever done in this state, except to
draw its salary! Burke pointed out that
a governor with snap and push could
make the commission work as has evi-
IDENTITY been done in Minnesota. This is
a fact. President Roosevelt made CON

enough energy to make the railroad com
