"For a year following his adj
mission to practice, Mr.. Halvor-
son was connected with the Geo.
A. Bangs law firm Offices in this
city, and in 1903 he commenced
practice at Esmond and Mime, ,
waukan, remaining there till the
winter of 19O7-0s when he remOv
ed to MinOt. He is associated with
Paul Crnm in the practice Of law
there, under the firm name of Hal
vOrsOn & Crum.
"In 1910 Mr.. HalvOrson's name
appeared on the state Dmocratic
ticket as a candidate for state
treasurer, and in 1911 he was ell
ected president Of the Minot city
commission, which position he
still holds.
I'm his business dealings, in his
law practice, and in the admins
tration of municipal affairs as the
executive head Of the city of Mi
not, Mr.. Halvorson has a record
unsecured by anything approach
ing the point Of being question
able. In that respect, he com
mands the deepest of considera-
ton at the hands of the voters in
the Third district.
"Voters of the Third district
have a splendid opportunity this
fall to show their appreciation of
absolute cleanliness in politics. A
vote for Mr.. Halvorson is a recog-
milton of high character, ability
and integrity, and his stand for
what is right
Praises for Halvorson.
The Maxbass Monitor, Republic
an paper, gets into line for Mr..
HalvorsOn in this manner:
CAS- a compliment to a young
man whom we highly esteem we
publish a few facts concerning
him for the benefit of our readers
who take an interest in the com
monwealth builders Of the state
and nation. The only thing we
have against 'Halvor' is the fact
that he is a mighty fine Democrat
and is deserving Of any honor the
people may bestow upon him."
The Kenmare Journal, Bull
Moose paper, says:
MANY Of the newspaper boys
of the state who attended the edi-
torial meet say hat if they had
their way about it Halyor Halvor-
son would be elected to Congress
from the Third district.
"Well, why don't they have
their way about it? If they get
busy and let their readers know
what a clean cut, and in every
way square, young fellow HalvD".
son is, there is no reason why he
can not be elected to congress.
We want to say that for one the
Journal is not very regular any
way, and would just as soon see
Halvor endorsed by the progress
sive party. He probably would
not refuse it and we would be de-
lighted to have him accept it.
"Now will some of the breth-
rem who r enthusing. over him
come out fat-footed and tell their
readers that he is the best candi-
date of the three who are now
before the people of the Third
district? You can cast your bal
lot for him with a clean con
science.'

The Westhope Standard, Re-

IF the election of congressman
from the Third district was left
to the newspaper boys Of the state
Halvor l.. Halyorson, mayor of
Minot, and nominee Of the Demo-
Gratis Of that district, would be
unanimously elected"
The Mountrail County Herald,
Republican, says:
He is young, strong, virile and
progressive. As president Of the
board Of commissioners Of the city
of Minot he has rendered a sery-
ice to the city which has placed
him in the front rank Of mayors
the largest cities. He stands
sqnarely with Woodrow Wilson as
a progressive. No better selec-
ton can be made by the people
