date. Mr.. Nestos has e1te1 baea
spoken of a. man of marked sbNNv.
Az he has taken muot interest n
tax legislation, he would have IN o.
portunity to show what stuff h h
made of it elected"
Des Laos Observer. I'm this weeks
issue will be found Mr.. Nestos' an
nouncement for the legislature. Com
ment on his candidacy is unnecessary,
as he is too we'll known to be in need
of an Introduction to the voters of
Ward county. However, we may say
that it is a happy omen to find men
of his type entering the political
arena. Our only criticism in the case
is that he did not come out for some
thing better. His ability and integrity
entitle MIN to aspire to any position
within the gift of the people of North
Dakota"
Ryder News: "R A. Nestos, who 10
a candidate for tn Legislature on the
Republican ticket, was born in Voss,
Norway, in 1877, and came to North
Dakota in 1893, locating in Buxton,
where he attended the public schools
for a few years. In 1900 he gradual
ed from the Mayville Normal, in 1902
from the University OF Wisconsin and
in 1904 from the law department OF
the University of North Dakota.
From the University, he came 10
Minot, where ne has since been To-
Gated, building up splendid
practice and acquiring a reputa-
ton for square dealing, broad
interests and progressive IDEAS His
training has been such as to
fit his especially we'll for the
duties of legislator. He received his
education in economics and sociology
under Dr.. Richard T. Ely. at Wiscon-
sin, and ever since has been a close
student of social and economic pro-
blems and has watched with keen in
terest the progress in legislation in
Wisconsin and other western states.
He has taken great interest in tax
reform and the problem of getting
more equitable system Of taHtation
for the state. As normal graduate,
he Is also greatly interested in edu-
cation and the training Of teachers
for our public schools and is ono Of
the loyal boosters, for the Normal
school at Minot. The people of the
29th Legislative district will do we'll
to send men of the stamp Of Mr.. Nes.
tos to make their laws for aem."
The above are few Of the recon.
mendations which the Independent
has seen fit to publish concerning one
of the candidates for toe legislature
from this district. Mr.. Nestos will
undoubtedly be elected, and he
should be. He's good clean man
and can accomplish things for US at
Bismarck. :;...', -
