The state-line herald. (North Lemmon, Adams County, N.D.) 1907-1912, 1910-02-25

lnat Will probably Se the argu.
mentatlVe palaver with which
the listening ear is to be bella
bored. 'Tis well, and may it be
to the profit of the schools. Supt.
Fred Davis, the pioneer superin-
tendent who measured the d.
menslonS of Adams county with
his boots, when the whole school
system of the county was still
under his hat, will be candidate.
Opposed to him are now Miss
Rose c. Wagner, who now is
teaching at Hettirger, and Mr..
A. S. Raberge. The latter came
into Adams county but recently.
but will put up a most energetic
campaign. He has broad ey-
perience both professionally and
politically. E. c. Thomas, who
recently announced himself fon
the office, has decided TO pull out
and leave this much DISPUTED
field.
For the important office of
states attorney there are thus far
three candidates Messrs. c.. M.
Parsons, Henry Moen and N. j.
Noble. The three men seem to
be pretty well matched for an
aggressive campaign. Bro. Par
sons is the pioneer lawyer of
Hettlnger, and may boast of a
large number Of acquaintanees
the country over. Henry Moen
was candidate two years ago.
when he put up a splendid spiel
against big odds and made many
warm friends. Mr.. Noble has
practiced for better than two
years also at Hetringer, and has
some good support back of him.
Then, last but not least, there
looms UP in the dim of distance a |
prospective campaign for perma-
nent county seat, and there's no.
telling but what some community
may take up the cudgel against
Hettlnger, to Wrest the at pres
ent seemingly easy victory from
the temporary county seat. Leav-
ing the matter Of strict utiltar-
ian view aside, the position of
Hettinger is far from being alb
solutelY secure, and the time is
Tar enough away, to enable some
ambitious point, with zeal and
money at its command, to put up
a big fight for the county seat.
Thus far, however. no opposition
to Hettinger has developed.
1t is to be regretted that as
yet no one has come out for an
Office from the first Commission
er Dist. tits really to be desired
that some capable person be
found with the necessary energy
to make the run, and with tact.
standing and good repute sufi-
cient to make an acceptable off
ering Of the first districters to
the official roster OF the county.
La this connection it were wise. |
If the neighbors got together and |
helped to find the man we need. /
and to whose support the whole
first district would gladly rally,
and who would easily be recog-
nized the county over as entitled 1
to the just demands for office.
Lastly of growing interest is
the campaign in the forty y-ninth 4
legislative district, comprising 1
the counties of Adams and Het-
niger, and entitled to two repre-
sentatives and one senator. Thus
FAR none have announced their
positively through the
press, although it is understood
hat H. P. Jacobson, of Mott,
Will run for Senator, while J. +.
Paul Gross has signifed his in

louse. Much depends on what
livision is to be made in these

ounties, the idea that Hettinger :
