The New Governor.
A. G.. Sorlie is the new nonpartisan

to the right of even the average
Lacquer in North Dakota. His calibre
can be easily ascertained thru state
ments he has made since his election.
namely, that farmers, bankers and
business men should all work together
for the good of North Dakota. Such a
policy will, naturally, play directly
into the hands of the investment com
panies, the bankers and the grain
thieves, who possess both political
and economic power, and who are
very anxious to be on good terms with
the farmers in order the more readily
to exploit them.

To quote one of the depart

has made study of this subject
from all angles:
1t is not only artiscally pre-
pared, but more than that. it is
so sensibly designed. Your nu
merais stand out very clearly,
the plate is of adequate size, and
we like the use of the full name
of the state rather than an ab,
breviation. Whoever designed
this plate in it's several details
certainly grasped the essentials
of the problem and handled them
in able fashion"
