| Senators Kraable and Strom Of
Trail county, are quartered at the
Grand Pacific, having arrived Friday
afternoon. Both are experienced
Legislators and will be heard from
during the session. ia
Hon. O. L. johnson Of Wells county
is one Of the new members of the
house, but from the rapidity with
which he is making friends 1t may be
safely said he will be in it at the
finish in good shape for his con.
stituents. He is at the Grand Pacific.
Hon. Q. T. Pierce of Rugby is shak.
ing hands with friends among the
crowds which are now filing the
hotel Hobbies He is at the Grand
Pacific
Hon. George Rose is at the North
west and is so busy greeting old
brother members of the house that a
suspicion is aroused that he has at
last consented that he become a can
didate for speaker, which proposition
seems to take well with a number
of Georges friends. l.
Hon. w. e. Purcell and wife of
Wahpeton, are guests Of the North
west. doc" Purcell is one of the
popular democrats of the state and
has been honored by that party with
all kinds of vain nominations. He
was member of the constitutional
convention and has otherwise been
largely identified with the develop
ment of the state. Bismarckers have
not seen him for long time, there
fore their greetings are perhaps more
profuse than to those good old repub.

Capital City for 10 these many years,
| democrats being somewhat of a rara

from Trail county, is early on the
ground and has busy time keeping
from getting mixed with J. A. Sorley

lion. John Ovison is another Trail
county man already arrived. He ha.
seen service in the house before ani
things are not strange to him abou
this city.
| Hon. Thomas Evans of Dickinson
has arrived and is making rapid head
| way getting acquainted with his
brother members. There is consider
able curiosity to see "the man who
| beat Phelan." Mr.. Phelan is con
testing the seat Of Mr.. Evans on the
ground that he was elected by illegal
