BY Col. 8. G. Whitehead.

Senator Hoverson of Beach is max
! ing many friends. 1t is his first term.
Mrs. Hoverson came from Beach to
witness the proceedings. They are
very popular. Senator Hoverson came
to North Dakota in 1891 and immedi.
ately went TO Grafton. He later NOV
ed to Beach, where success attended
his efforts from the first. He is a bust
ness man who has a keen under
| standing Of things, and will make a
good record.
One of the most likable men in eth.
err house is Senator Barnes of Dckey
county, a new member OF the senate,
| who is showing quick perception. He
was formerly a farmer, retired and
moved to Glendale, and has the abili.
Ity and the discretion to render much
help to the Ellendale Normal, which
is the apple OF his eye. Senator
Barnes is a native OF New York state
and is going to be a strong man in
the senate.
Representative Haroldson is one Of
the new members who is meeting
with recognition from the first. He
is a comer," said an old and observ.
! ing politician to the Man About Town.
i"I have seen the rise and the fall OF
many a mar in politics, but that man
| Haroldson will render a good account
ing of himself. You watch his smoke.
He won't be fresh. He won't butt
in. But he will do good work.
w. NJ. Miller Of Hoff was here to
see the last hours of the Burke adj
ministration and to hear Governor
Hanna's inaugural address. 81 like
to see such things" said Mr.. Miller.
The Formally and the due regard
for custom and tradition show such
marked respect for constituted au-
thority. 1t was a mighty fine looking
set Of men,"
Editor Hall of the Glen Ullin News
came to see the inauguration and to
visit with Bismarck friends. Mr.. Hall
is one OF the best known newspaper
Irnen in North Dakota and keeps up to
the minute in all state affairs. He
says that Glen Ullin Is going right on
improving and that he thinks it will
outgrow the other North Dakota
towns within the next two decades.
Tom Lennon was here last night.
Tom is the leading man in Tempest
and Sunshine, and is the same old ia
vorite that he was back in the east
when his raven locks flowed copious-
ly over his broad brow. l used to
know Tom then. He was a great ia
| vorite from the lakes clear down
south, and he has never lost the
knack Of pleasing the people. 1t was
good to see Tom last night, for there
is a sincerity and good faith in his
interpretations which make for a
more appreciated stage.
Judge George Jarvis Landon, the
supreme justice of Hebron, came in
and saw the Inauguration. George
| Landon is an old newspaper man,
who secured his education at the
printers case. He is a man Of ability
and pleasing personality, and as a
justice of the peace he is certainly
all right. He has been doing a lot to
keep Hebron's name before the Eng
fishing speaking people. -,
Jerry O'Shea, the Sage of Black
water, came down to see the legisla-
ture get to working. Mr.. O'Shea is a
former representative and a good one,
too. He has many acquaintances over
the state and the old friends think a
good deal of him. Mr.. O'Shea is a
farmer, who is taking advantage of
the opportunity to develop his land to
its utmost. Mr.. O'Shea's son was op-
Grated upon here last spring, at st.
Ale&ius hospital, and he says that the
young nan is now doing splendidly.
Senator Young of Mannhaven was
one of the later to arrive, but he got
there just the same. Senator Young
lis that kind of a man. He is never
late. He is a prosperous banker of
M%annhaven, and enjoys the fullest
confidence of the many people who
do business with him.
There were many people shaking
hands with the Honorable James Col
Inns, who used to secure so much eff
Effective legislation for the state uni
versity and the state fair on wheels.
| They all like "Jin" Collins. He was
a sincere and earnest fighter, n who
delivered the goods" and who re-
garded a pledge as a pledge. He is
the kind OF a man who will constant
ly grow in the affections of the people
though he may temporarily drop out
OF the general assembly.
Hans c.. Miller OF Ryder is one Of
the square-toed legislators who has
the courage of his convictions. Ry-
der was named after him. Hans Is
kind of rough. But he is one of the
finest fellows, and is right on the job
| all the time. If he overlooks any
bets for his district they must chloro-
form him to get past him.
l. C. F. Leonard, who delivers the one
last test to all bulltight fence of the
American Steel and Wire company,
has been here for several days to in
troduce his wares to the Niokertail
legislators, who will give a great deal
Of time to the building of political
fences during the next two years.
Dad Leonard is one of the travelling
men who always gets a warn well
come.
