It is generally believed that Hughes was the strongest possible
candidate that the Republican party could have selected to run
against Wilson, and there is but little doubt but what he will be
elected: He is agreeable to all factions and he will have the united
support of the party, which is sufficient to ensure his election be-
yond a doubt.

This week, Devils Lake is entertaining the State Sunday School
convention and our city is thronging with people. 1t is the larg-
est convention that we have ever had here, and there are thou,
sands of outside people with us, and yet they are being entertained
taken care of in a manner which will be highly satisfactory to
all, which goes to show that the citizens of Devils Lake are made of
the right kind of stuff when it comes to doing things.

therefore is not entitled to the vote of any man who is a Repub-

To the Republican voters of Ramsey County:
AS a candidate for Representative for Ramsey County,
and finding it impossible to make a canvass of the county.
and meeting all the voters personally, 1 take this means of
greeting them. By giving a brief history of my life, you
will know what manner of man l am, to some extent, at
least.
| was born near Mankato, Minnesota, forty years ago.
and lived there until twenty-five years Of age. | acquired
my education in the common schools and a course in the
Mankato Commercial College. l came to North Dakota
fifteen years ago and settled on the farm on which I nov
reside. believe l have been through most of the ups and
downs Of life incident to farm life in North Dakota, and I
wish to say that while I have not made as much money as
I could wish for, I have never been in need of the things
that goes to the making of a clean comfortable and sub
stantial living.
In seeking this office, l am simply taking advantage of
the law, which grants any lawful citizen the right to offer
himself as a candidate for office. I have not obligated
myself or made any pledges to any organization. I wish
to be free to properly represent the people to the best of
my judgment and ability and do the right thing by all
classes, whether they live in town or country. I believe
the making of our laws is a serious matter, and should be
given careful thought, before making any radical changes
or adding any new laws to those which already exist.
While we have not yet realized the ideal in government in
North Dakota, I believe it can be said that the laws are
as good as in any other state, and if we act wisely and
honestly, we will realize the ideal in due time.

Let us again call the attention of the voters to the special cleo
ton to vote on the question Of increased jurisdiction ofthe county
court. This election is held at the same time as the primaries on

approval of this measure on that day.

Let us make a prediction. If Lynn J. Frazier is nominated for
governor of this state, claiming to be a Republican and Halvor
Halvorson of Minot is the Democratic nominee, Halvorson will be
the The next governor :" e4a of North %? Il Dakota: The people Of ,t this s state are
der obligations to Townley and his band Of plferers. It. is already
being rumored that if Frazier is elected that he is going to appoint
Youmans bank examiner, and while there may not be anything to
these rumors, it is the belief that he must necessarily pay some at
tention to those who are responsible for landing him in office. W..
do not have the least idea that Frazier is going to be governor of
this state.

that we hated it, and virtue so that we

that we hated it, and virtue so that we
loved it,
As a poet he was equally great, and
many learned men of the period held
that he was without a peer. Ben JON
son said he was "the first poet in the
world in some things, but he will per-
ish for not being understood" which
prophecy has come true. Dryden said
he was the greatest wit Of the nation.
He was an impulsive man, full of fan
tastic moods and fancies. Some Of
his poetry was as light as thistledown,
and some was profound. Now it was
voluptuous, and again morbid.
He wrote much about the mystery
Of death, and that subject interested
him to such a degree that he haunted
graveyards. One day he stood in the
graveyard surrounding his church and
watched the weary sexton at work. 1t
was an old, old cemetery, and every
time a grave was dug bones were
thrown up. Poor people buried there
could not count upon undisturbed re-
pose. In a few years at most they
would have to make way for others.
Presently, as the sexton welded his
shovel, he threw out skull, and the
preacher picked it up, and doubtless
moralized upon the vanity of human
life. As he turned 1t around in his
hands, his fingers encountered a pro-
lection. It was the head Of a nail.
Examination showed that the nail had
been driven through the skull, and 1t
still protruded into the inner cavity
two or three inches.
The reverend doctor realized at once
that a horrid crime had been commit
ted. He questioned the sexton as to
whose grave had been disturbed, but
the sexton didn't know. He had Off
ciated only a few years. Perhaps his
predecessor might remember. The
predecessor was q white and wintry
gaffer who lived at some distance.
DOnne hunted him up, and took him
to the graveyard. The old mans wits
were feeble, but his memory for all
things connected with dead mems
bones was accurate. He at once an
nounced that the grave had been occu-
pied by Armstrong, the innkeeper.
Doctor Donne inquired about the vii
lage concerning the death Of Arm
strong, and the oldest inhabitants re-
called the wife's queer story, and her
remarkable haste to get married again.
There was reason for suspicion, at
least; but the good doctor found II
almost impossible to believe that the
fine, devout woman who listened to his
sermons so closely could be guilty OF
an atrocious crime. If ever a calm
untroubled face spoke of q clear con-
science, the face belonged to that
woman.
But he felt it his duty to set hii
doubts at rest. II she was guilty, the
