DickinSon'S Permanent
Homes

The real active building season
has gotten we'll under way in
Dickinson. The present outlook
for 1908 is for more individual
jobs of building, principally in the
residence line, than in former
years. The character of these
residence structures show that the
owners are building we'll and care
fully. A better class of workmen
and a higher grade of material is
required for a large portion of
the permanent homes in the
course of construction, indicating
that the cheap makeshift class of
buildings are not generally
wanted. This has been noticeable
to quite an extent in Dickinson
for some years, but never as much
as now. At the present time over
thirty dwellings are either being

We are reproducing this week a cut
of Robert Clendenning, of Wimbledon,
candidate for state treasurer on the re.
publican ticket. Mr.. C%lendenning is
making an independent canvas of the
state and is not tied up with either fac
ton of the republican party, and to say
that he is meeting with much encourage
ment is but to state the fact mildly.
From every quarter of the state are
coming encouraging letters and endorse.
ments and his petitions are being signed
by those who belong to both factions of
the party.
Mr.. C~lendenning has been a resident
of North Dakota for the past twenty-six
years, being first located in Cass County
where he was engaged in the mercantile
business at Wheatland. He afterwards
located at Darcy, in Barnes county and
then moved to Wimbledon and has
been a resident of Barnes county for
about twenty-five years. During that
time he has been engaged in the mer-
camille, banking and grain business and
has made a success of everything with
which he has been connected. He has
probably contributed as much toward
the upbuilding of Barnes county and the
state as most men, has a reputation
for being fair and honest in his business
dealings, is large hearted and generous
and is undoubtedly as much entitled to
the support of the voters of the state as
any other man.-[Courtenay Gazette.
Robert Clendenning of Wimbledon
has announced that he will be a candi-
date for the state treasurer, subject to
the republican primaries and is %circulat-
ing his petitions over the state. Mr..
Clendenning has been a resident of this
state for rs years, being engaged in bus
mess in Cass and Barnes counties and
has made many warm friends. At the
present time he is engaged in the bank
ing and grain business at Wimbledon.
SIX years ago he was made president OF
the Merchants National Bank at Vim.
bledon and has done much toward the
upbuilding that institution. In 1904 he
was chosen by the people as their repre-.
sentative in the state Legislature and
served the one term to the entire salts
faction of his constituents. His exper:
fence in the banking business fits him TO,
the Office he now aspires to and the
people will make no mistake by casting
their votes for him at the primaries to be
held June oath. Bob is a good repub
lican, a good business mar and a roya
good fellow and if elected to the office
of the state treasurer he will administer
the affairs of that important Office tc
the satisfaction of all.-[The Ruso Re

Political Comment

Charles Gutmann, candidate for
auditor in Dunn county, is 80 years of
age. He is of German parantage, and
his bank and commercial experience
makes him we'll qualified for the office
he seeks. He is a property owner in the
central part of Dunn county, where he is
actively engaged in farming and ranch
ing.
w. R. Veigel of Dickinson has a clear
field for the nomination of county sur
veyor at the June primaries. Mr.. Veigel
is a gentleman who gives his entire time
to civil engineering, and his work ranks
with the best in the Northwest. Besides
being entirely competent and trust.
worthy, he is agreeable and always glad
to give information in his line. He
superintendent the construction of the
city water works system last year to the
entire satisfaction of everyone.
This week P. ]. Pelissier entered the
race for the nomination of sheriff in
Stark county. In the good old days Of
pioneering gone bye MI. Pelissier held
the Office of sheriff in Billings county
and his entering the field now makes a
three cornered fight. J. A. Wiech is one
of the pioneer residents of Stark county
and has always borne a reputation
for square dealing. Both men are popu'
lar and have their staunch friends among
leading business men of the county
The third candidate for the nomination
of sheriff at the June "a primaries is
Geo. Brown of Richardson. He is a
comparatively new nan in the county.
John van der Las, present incumbent
of the county judges Office, is a candi'
date for reelection and so far as known
will be the only party up for nomination
at the republican primaries in June
Any person who has visited Judge var
der Las office on official business any
time during the past four years knows
that all public documents are properly
recorded and in such shape that needed
information in connection with probate
and other cases of the office are easily
obtainable. The fact that Mr.. van del
Las speaks and reads both English and
German nicely is also a great advant
age. He is obliging and makes it a poin'
to thoroughly acquaint himself with al
matters pertaining to his Office, and it i!
little wonder that the voters are unani
nous in the feeling that he should be
continued in. his present position. Capa
Bile and p%ainstaking men are always de
sired in important offices of this kind.
