His address had the effect Of driving
away a lot Of men who had intended to
support him and since then it is crafty
ing to notice the increased sentiment for
c. A. Johnson Of Minot for governor.
There are many former residents of Cass
county here and they were astonished at
the appearance of Twichell and the con
fused address through which he labored.
In his address Twichell took occasion
to say the Fargo Forum had lied about
him. He quoted extracts and endeavored
to explain. He admitted his long Office
holding record, but said he liked it and
wanted more years of it, especially as
governor.

day last week and sold the sex of sec.

the excellent work he has done the past
year.
w. T. LOOMS has been appointed by
the state board of health as health officer
for this district and all contagious
diseases, births, deaths, etc., should be
reported to him. The law allows you
three days to make such reports. You
should be prompt about reporting if you
do not wish to pay fines. This matter
has not been properly attended to and
until Mr.. LOOMS was given charge of the
work nc reports have been sent in to the
state board.
Treadwell Twitchell, candidate for
governor, was in our town Saturday and
spoke to a small delegation of voters on
that afternoon. He was an interesting
speaker but would have aroused much
more enthusiasm in this patriotic little
town if he had set forth a few stalwart
ideas instead of praising the work Of
corrupt politicians, such as Senator Hans
brough and others of the same stamp.
Preaching services will be held in
the New England school house Sun
day, June 2,st at 3 o'clock. In connec'
