during his eight years in Office to put

form his duty in that important partic-
ular, have We not the right to assume

but as a citizen of the republic, my
observation and reflection have shown
me how treacherously easy is the tran
sition from Capitalization Of govern
ment-which those of the republican
party set so much store by and which
good many of us democrats are in
clined to acquiesce into a PERSONAL
cation of government and then to
usurpation of government. Washing
ton in all his career uttered no greater
truth than when he declared that a
constitutional government, under such
circumstances, becomes almost, as a
matter of course, a despotism. For a
long time. fortunately, this was the
view of the American people; and
when they have departed from it a
long and ominous step has been
taken, not only in the commission of
error. but towards establishing evil
precedent.
PROBLEMS ARE SERIOUS.
1--WE have, however, problems of
| serious nature confronting us for solu-
ton, and doubtless they will increase
as time goes on. We, as people, have
tolerated the doing of things which
must be undone or made right and not
condoned; we have at times set too
much store by mere material success
and judged as of minor consequence
/ things which broaden and elevate and
ennoble a nation; we have made COM
promise with things of evil import.
We have, at times. been unmindful
Of the rights OF others as we have
hurried on to the realization of am
bilious plans; and, in our indifference
to the demands of good citizenship,
We have been guilty of or acquiesced
In course of conduct that mas given
rise to sullen expressions of an unrest
to which we cannot afford TO be I'M
concerned listeners; for unchecked I'M
rest is likely to breed discomfort and
discomfort in it's turn disorder.
MENACE TO WORLD REPUTE.
And, unless we frankly recognize
this, we shall have no reasonable hope
of correcting the conditions which
arouse, if they do not altogether jus
tify, those expressions, and which are
a menace not only TO our continuing
prosperity but to our self-respect and
our repute in the world. Again and
again, as time goes on, in obedience
to popular clamor, we shall be tempt
ed to enact statutes unjust to labor or
capital and not representing reflection
and conviction, of statutes which are
; fairly certain to be incapable of en-
forCement and to bring the admins

The commercial club at the present
time is organizing a campaign to
bring about closer relations between
the Great Northern Railway Co. and
the city, with a view to securing a
new station for this city. During the
past five months there have been
shipped from Langdon more than 500
cars of grain, approximately 1885,
900 bushels, and this with the
immense express, passenger and
general freight business it is estimated
that the local station does a business
close to the quarter million dollar
mark, while the people who contribute
this vast amount Of revenue to the
railroad have to put up with meagre
accommodations at a station that is

enjoying as it does the patronage of a
large rich farming community of
which this city is the center. Although
Langdon has a population of less than
1000 people it does a volume
of business equal to that done by most
towns twice the size, and the large
department stores and the enormous
hank deposits are proof of this as
sertion. All this is due to it's central
location, being the county seat of one
of the best, if not the best
counties of the state, and the
hustling qualities Of it's bus
mess men, who have given this city
the reputation of having as good mar

pot is not all that Langdon's COM
mercial club is after, for it is doing a
great work n advancing the city's in
terests in many ways, such al the
building of better approaches to the
city, the improvement of its streets,
and the bringing in of many new bus
mess enterprises from time to time.
Working with the commercial club
are the good roads organization, the
Civic Improvement league and the au-
tomobile club, and all are responsible
in a large measure for the progress
that the city is making.
Chief among the city's institutions
is the public school system, which is

In a word we know of no better
town in the state than Langdon in
which to engage in business or make
your home, for it is the county seat
of a county having a population of
$4,000 people, who are all prosperous
and many wealthy. 1t is a city of
beautiful homes, public spirited citi-
zens and fine public institutions, and
is growing right along with the rest
of North Dakota. Three new cement
block business houses are to be con-
structed early in the spring. and a new
courthouse is under consideration, and
these are just a part of the contem-
plated improvements to the city for
this season alone.
