The Langdon Republican would excuse State
Supt Stockwel on the grounds that that gentleman
thru close attention to his business, saved several
thousand dollars in fees, whereas had Stockwell
done as some officials, not resided at Bismarck and
looked closely after his business there would have
been no surplus to scrap over This is not the
point at all. Stockwsll received sertain ssalary
as provided by law This salary is supposed to pay
him for the work which he is required to do. Stock
well either is or he is not entitled to the extra fees,
which are now in his possession The courts will
decide the question, and if they decide that the
fees belong to the state, Stockwsl will havs to turn

Congressman VIM. Lormer, known as the polltl-
cal boss of Cook county, was elected the junior
senator from Illinois, at the 95th ballot taken in the
legislature breaking all records in historical dead
lock senatorial fights. Hopkins, who had been
nominated in the primaries held out hope until
near the end. The will of the people was given
no recognition in this instance, and the Illinois
voter must have lost considerable faith in the
primary elections held in that state. When United
States Senators elected by direct vote of the
people, such occurrences will be unknown, and the
legislature instead of spending nearly hundred
days trying to elect foxy politician will have
an opportunity to enact needed laws, wipe from
the statutes some of the dead ones.
