BOYS TO LEAVE ON
EARLY TRAIN MONDAY

The seventy-two young men to
leave for Camp Gordon on the Gath,
will leave on the early train which
arrives here at 6:45. They have
been ordered to report in Greeneville
Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and
will spend the night here.
It has been suggested that some
form of entertainment be gotten up
for the young men Sunday afternoon

counties have arranged for farewell
meetings to be held Sunday after

and Greeneville should certainly ar

Judge SeversOn Again Candidate in
MOuntrail.

Our old friend, Judge John E. Sew
erson Of Stanley, is candidate for re-
nomination for county judge of Noun
trail county. Two years ago hard
fight was put up to defeat him, but
he and his numerous friends demon
strated that they had something to say
about it, and he came out Of the bat
tie with colors flying.
This year, as usual, an effort is being
made to defeat him, but the Judges
friends say that the election will re-
suit just as it did two years ago, and
the serene smile still remains on the
Judges good natured countenance.
This year there is a three-handed
contest for the nomination, but this is
not apt to make any difference in the
results, the Judges friends aver. One
of the candidates opposing him IS
pool hall proprietor. 1t would be a
most unusual spectacle for the people
of wide-awake county like Noun
trail to select for this dignified office
man, one of whose strong talking
points is that of being good pool and
billiard player.
The writer has known Judge Sever
son for years; knew him when he was
hard working farm boy back in
Story county, Iowa, and watched him
as he worked his way thru the Drake
law school at Des Moines, la. We re-
member we'll when he was admitted to
the bar in North Dakota, back in 1909,
and have watched his steady and sue
cessful plugging ever since. Judge
Severson, or Honest John, as his
friends call him, is as common as an
old shoe and he knows the law He
has been eminently fair, as all must
realize and admit, for during the four
wears he has held this office, whenever
a case was taken to higher court,
his decision was always affirmed: No
better recommendation is needed.
