Outside of the discussion by the
Cavalier Chronicle and tho Pioneer
Express the county seat removal ques-
tion has been apparently sleeping for
some time. We say apparently because
in fact the Cavalier boomers have been
busy circulating their petitions asking
the commissioners to submit the ques-
ton to a vote of the people. The Times
stated early in the agitation that the
necessity of new buildings was not
seriously pressing, that it was wasteful
and extravagant to make a change at
this time and discard the buildings now
in existence, and that the burden of
taxation at present was great enough
without adding to it needlessly. Yo
will have a chance to record your in
tention on this question even before the
November election. You will probably
be approached by someone with a
petition asking that the matter of re-
moval be submitted to vote. If you
sign the petition you will make possible
the fight in the fall campaign and will
run the risk of paying much larger
taxes for the next twenty years. Can
you afford 70 do this? The question is
up to you Mr.. Taxpayer.-St. Thomas
Times.

Owing to the fact that proceedings
were started to knock out the constitu-
tlonality of:the new non-partisan judi
ciary primary law, all the candidates
had to make a hurry up move for petit
tions that called for party nomination
in case the non partisan petitions already
filed were thrown out. Thus we have
the candidates for supreme judges out
of partisan politics-and IN them up to
their neck. There goes the primary law
again. 1t is certainly a beauty. And
at every attempt to patch up the old
leaky thing, it leaks worse than ever.
The only way it holds water now, is to
let the water freeze.

MUST HAVE 'EM UP HIS SLEEVE,

The Herald writer somhow got
obsessed with the idea that the western.
part of Pembina has increased largely
in population during late years, while
the eastern part of the county has
greatly decreased. As he did not get
any such information from the people
of Pembina it must be from his special
interview with Mr.. Laxdal. This
paper has already shown that the vote
dods not prove any such increase or
decrease Neither does the census
We think from this that Dan must be
preparing to find a lot Of 'em out in the
sandhills- that never were found before.

WHO OWNS THE icELANDERs?

The Grand Forks Herald of Saturday
and Sunday contaiued a couple OF
letters from staff correspondent dated
respectively at Pemblna and Cavalier
concerning the political situation and
the county seat fight in this county.
Considering the fact that the cores
pondent is an utter stranger to the
people of this county and wrote only
what was told him his work was fairly
good. However, the date lines were
superfuous. The matter showed for
itself its origin-and as for anything
new he might as we'll have remained at
home and read the Pioneer Express and
the Cavalier Chronicle and made his
articles from them.
There are some conclusions and
"between the lines however that are
of interest to the people at large in the
county as they show incidentally what
the Cavalier folks are at land how
they propose to steal the court house
by manipulating the politics of both
parties.
In the information which the Herald
correspondent got from the Cavalier
committee, it will be seen by the
readers that this committee, who are
in fact Magnus Brynjolfson and Dan
Laxdal, for the first time publicly
announce themselves as the Vikings OF
the Northmen," and propose to lead
their hordes of Icelanders, who live in
Nthe townships of Park, Gardar, Thing
valla. Akra, Beaullen, etc. down on the
peaceful Saxons of the lowlands. even
as did their forefathers in the by-gone
centuries. In plain English, that the
\ real estate firm Of 4tB, & L. are in
business as county seat boomers, and
propose to not only use the Icelandels
as allies and warriors for the benefit OF
j the city OF Cavalier and the aforesaid
firm, but also make them pay at least
/ one half the price of a new slOO, ,OOC
\ court house in that city. 4 i9a
ii3jl I RI AS may be noticed in the Herald
article, this threatened INVASION Of the
Northmen pervades the whole supposed
political situation in this county. Can
didates have been selected BY the
aforesaid firm, some have been bull
sdozed and ordered of the track, Others
s.s,oaxed into the field, and all. either

"The placing of the county seat fight
above all others has resulted also IN the
choosing of candidates with reference
their vote pulling strength in the main
issue. The extent to which this proce-
dure has found favor in the. eyes of the
political leaders make it certain that
the fortunes of the candidates will
hinge very largely on their attitudes
for and against Cavalier or Pen,bina."
As there has been no choosing what
ever of candidates by the Pembina
committee, therefore all that is SAID
above in reference to such choosing, is
applicable to the Cavalier committee
alone. That committee also had the
audacity to actually give to the Herald
man the total poll list of the above
named townships as being practically
the personal property of the aforesaid
firm. to be used for or against such
candidates as they choose to select as
favorites or victims.
There are more things than these
in the Herald story which we may
observe later, but the one thing that
pervades the whole of the article is,
that Brynjolfson & Laxdal own the
1celanders and propose to select all the
county and legislative officials and by
this means take the court house to
Cavalier at the coming election.
Personally, the editors of the Pioneer
Express do not believe that the Ice
landic population of the western part
of this county are ''dumb, driven sheep"
We don't believe they are the personal
property Of Magnus BrynjoHson and
Dan Laxdal. That most of them would
from their location perhaps naturally,
prefer the county seat at Cavalier we
admit, provided it did not cost any.
thing to make the move. But we
believe that there are many of them
who will count the cost and will not
sacrifice both money and political pre-
ference as against mere sentiment.
That, they will rebel and resent the
assumption that they are but dumb
chattels of any two or more men to be
used for the selfish interests of Cavalier
we do believe. Icelanders have for a
thousand years been practically free
and independent people in their own
island home, longer than any other
independent country in the world, and
we doubt not that at the ensuing cleo
ton they will be found showing their
independence of political dictation at
the polls,-i they are the sons of their
fathers.
The assertion of the Herald man
which is of course the assertion of Dan
and Magnus, that they have united for
the first time in political manipulations,
will be for laughter among Pembina
county people. What they mean is
that this is the first time that they
have made public announcement of
the fact. Dan and Magnus are Ice
landers and have considerable political
sagacity, but they sometimes make
errors-and the biggest they havo
ever made, in our Judgment, was to tell
the Herald man that they owned
Iceland.

A perusal of the official list of candi-
dates published in this issue shows that
the political mldwives of Cavalier have
rather overdone the job in some cases
