Mr.. Ellsworth said in part: 1T

ing as it did without a dissenting
voice. ! am proud that the republic
ans of this county have endorsed
Theodore Roosevelt for president,
and ! am proud at this time to be a
candidate for congress in a county
which has endorsed him SO strongly.
If the Chicago convention sees fit
to nominate Roosevelt he will pick
up strength just as he did after the
North Dakota election in which he
was badly beaten, and if he is
nominated he will be elected presi'
dent of the United States.

association, and county commits,

the lines of the Elwell bill. He was
especially glad to speak to all these
town supervisors and that there
was not a politician in the hall, as
he had been informed.
1.-THE men who come here, did so
at their own expense in propagating
the good roads movement. He re-
garded the county commissioners as
men charged with great response
bility to the county This work of
building state roads goes down to
the highway commission. The men
in this commission serve year in
and year out without one dollar Of
salary.
Under the Elwell bill you can
get twenty times as many miles OF
road this year in every county in
the state as in any other way with
out any increase in county taxes and
exceptional assessments.

of the state was intending to make
a raid upon the state treasury for
it's own improvement But he said
that when he brought greetings from
the northern part of the state, he
did SO upon the broad plan that we
are all members OF this splendid
state. We should appreciate the
efforts of every man who is putting
his shoulder to the wheel in build
ing up fine roads.

gineer began his speech by reading
a poem about the man who worked
out taxes on the road. This work
was considered joke for men, SO
