OF Valley county, that a clerk cannot
legally print the names of the same

the candidate has been nominated by
more than one party at the same
time, he should inform the county

DICKINSON MAN
Will Be CANDIDATE
:. c. Hebron Announces
Himself an Aspirant for
Attorney General.

Bismarck, y. D., Jan. a.--Hon II.
c. Hebron OF Dickinson has decided
TO enter the a rs a candidate for
the office Of attorney general. This
decision was definitely settled when it
was learned that Attorney General
Miller would he a candidate for Uni
ted States senator n was brought
about by strong pressure on the part
OF many prominent and influential
men and O fthe state, it is
said.
My. Heffron has been an attache of
Attorney General Miller's office for
several years past. The
ment Of his candidacy and his plat
form of principles follows:
There is existing in the minds of
many persons and communities Of
North Dakota, and in particular GER
tain portions Of the western part
thereof. the sentiment that the state.
as a whole. does not are whether its
laws are obeHed b yeveryone, but de-
sires to leave it to each community
to choose what laws it shall violate
with impunity: therefore, to make a
direct test on The question of law en-
forcement. I hereby announce myself
as a candidate for attorney general
upon the republican ticket and upon
this platform:
Il. All the laws of the state should
be given a reasonable and even-hand-
ed enforcement in all portions of the
state.
"2. The law-enforcing officers of
the state should enforce the laws as
they exist: the usurping Of legislative
and pardoning powers " officers
whose sole duty it is to enforce the
laws produces %intolerable conditions
of bribery, graft an danarchy.
"S. There should be no playing
OF the state; no MAI should be prose-
c,lted or excused from prosecution be-
couse of his political beliefs or his
social or business standing.
~. Officers elected to enforce the
laws should do so without waiting for
citizens to force them to action"

Grafton. n. D.. Jan. 9.-The i'm

The year 1919 which has just closed
showed the greatest total transfer Of
property in the history of the court,
the total being s726, 246. 81. And
while the. amount Of fees collected,
$3.50, is not so large as that of last
year. its drop is due to the fact that
a large number of estates admitted
to probate were Of small value The
volume of business transacted by the
court entails an immense amount of
detail and the exercise of great care
and patience by the county Judge.

lating to marriages, which went into
effect July i, would cut down the
number of marriage licenses issued,
