of the political rot that has been used
originated here but with the general
spirit of good feeling that is being
manifested so generallg the indi-
cations are that the next few years
will be devoted to boosting for the
state and in entire harmony with the
state administration. Barnes county
is liable to profit more largely by this
promised reign of peace inasmuch
as the agricultural resources of the
county have been less exploited. This
is a good time for all to boost with

Word comes from Bismarck that
this session will be entirely free from
the usual political pickering and that
the state may look forward to some
good hard work from the lawmaking
bodies. For at least the three last
sessions more time has been given to
factional fighting than to the real
work that should be done in the inter-
est of the state and it is with feeling
of relief now that We anticipate ses.

Burke, which, it is alleged has been

to ratify the appointments on the

control of penal and charitable in

some respects, and while it is not the
general belief that all the appoint

comes ito ratifying the appointment of
