The Wood-Flick Affair Again.

Speaking Of the assault of Sergeant-at-
arms Wood on Captain Flick, a citizen of
Fargo says: II was an eye witness of the
melee between Sergeant-at.arms Wood and
Captain Flick at Bismarck, and it was as
lively and interesting a spectacle as the
capital has afforded. 1t appears that Flick,
who is old enough to know better, had, it is
said. slandered Mrs. Wood, a lady who is
greatly esteemed at Bismarck as we'll as in
Fargo. Captain Wood has a direct way of
dealing with things and proceeded to de-
mand a retractiOn and an apology. Flick
denied that he had circulated slanderous
reports and was requested to go and face
Captain Woods informant, a Bismarck
lady. This Flick refused to do, saying that
he was not going to run around town deny
ing some WOman's gossip. Like a flash
Wood dealt him a knock-down blow on The
nose. The Fargo ex-chief then picked him
up and gave him several more singing
blows on the face. Flick did not try to
strike back but vainly struggled to protect
himself. He sustained a broken nose and
other injuries and was a sorrowful picture
when Captain Wood let up. The latter pro-
ceeded to the police magistrate of the city
and paid a fine Of $40, without being placed
under arrest. Captain Wood took the
westbound train for a brief trip to Mon
tana. -
This does not differ materially from Cap
tain Flick's statement.

Mortgages in the Older States.

If Senator Voorhees, arithmetic is cor
rect, North Dakota is not so badly off, by
comparison, as some Of the older states so
far as the mortgage record is concerned.
But she is young yet and by keeping up
her moral attitude a few years longer and
thus encourage a further immigration of
money loaning sharks, she may be able in
time to place herself along side of Illinois
and Michigan.
In a little speech in the senate one day
last week Mr.. voorhees, declared that not
only had there been no increase in the
value of land for the last quarter of a CEN
fury but there had been an absolute loss of
80 per cent. T~wenty-three per cent. of the
whole face of the state of Illinois was un-
der mortgage. The state of Michigan was
still worse-47 per cent Of the whole sur
face of til at state was under mortgage. In
the states of Indiana, Kentu cky, Missouri,
Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, and the whole
northwest from 20 to so per cent. of the
farm lands were under mortgage at such
rates Of interest as the farmer could never
pay out of their crops, to say nothing of
the principal. The farmer were brought
thus face to face with the loss of their
homes, with ruin, and hundreds of thou
sands of them were standing in that atti-
tude at the present day and hour.

Give Credit Where Due.

1t is noticed by the Edgely Mail, La
Moure county, that when L. A. LELAND.
representative from that district, arrived
there from the capital last week, he was
given a reception and banquet by his con-
stituents. The politicians of LaMoure 1.-THE
home of Senator Diesem) went to Edgely
to swell the crowd and make speeches. A
few days later, when Senator Diesem ar
rived home, he was coldly received by
these sam people, although many others
greeted him warmly and approved his
action on the lottery question, which was
made the ground for this distinction. This
only SHOWS how fanatical public opinion
Stupldly closes Its eyes to merit. All who
nave witnessed and were cOnversant with
the work accomplished in the legislature
Dy these Two gentlemen, (tne records of
daily journal proving the same,) agree that
the score would stand as 10 to l in favor of
Senator Diesem. Some OF his work is de-
serving OF special mention. Senate bill
NO: Al, on forest tree culture, for instance,
giving every farmer who plants and cult
Yates from n to twenty-five acres of
forest trees, q bUInty of SIS per annum:
senate bills 118 and 1863, both important
measures, he succeeded in getting upon
the statute books. MI. Diesem's gallant
a!lu persistent advocacy OF senate bill No.
81, known as the "deaf mute BILL" entities
him to the thanks of all good citizens of
the state. And last but not least, Senator
Dlesem's amendments to the gross earn
ings bill; his valiant leadership against
violent and filibustering opposition to
house bill 164, (the Unlisted railroad tax
bill and successfully pushing its passage
in the closing hours of the session, entitle
him to take a place in the front rank of
legislators. Many other measures have
his imprint of faithful work.
Although Senator Diesem NAV have
different views from some of his constitu-
ents on some measure, his work as a whole
certainly does entitle him to recognition
and respect, unless the Judgment of his
constituents be f%eartully warped by politi-
cal jealousy and fanaticism.

DEFENDING THE NORSKMEN.
In His Maiden Speech, Senator Pierre
hesents Voorhees, Slur on the Scan
dinavians.

In His Maiden Speech, Senator Pierce
Resents Voorhees, Slur on the Scam
dinavians.
A Washington special of the 10Th thus
speaks OF Senator Pierce's maiden speech
in the United States senate:
Senator Pierce, of North Dakota, sur
prlsed the senators today by making a good
speech IN opposition to the Blair bill. He
dld not talk upon the general features of
the Dill, but replied to the structures laid
upon new state members who did not sup
port the measure when they had been made
magnificent grants for school purposes. He
GAINED that every state admitted since 1902
nag received grants for schools; that with
out any aid and by direct tax the new
states had established splendid school
systems. He alluded to North Dakota as a
FARMING community and the people being
poor ana That 1t had been claimed that the
Door OF statehood had been granted too
soon, but in educational interests North
dakota was not behind, having only 1,40S
people OF a school age that could not read
ana write. He thought the progress that
the states had made indicated the wisdom
OF their admission. He referred to the
many important measures pending in con-
gress winch had been held up and action
prevented on them on account of the Blair
bill, naming the pension and silver bills,
and referring to the distress that
the farming communities were suffer-
ing and the relief which they de-
handed. just previous to Senator
Plerce's remarks Voorhees, of Indiana had
made a stump speech and referred to the
Scandinavian immigrants as a half-civilized
people. Senator Pierce took occasion to
reply TO the slur, saying that the Scandi-
navlan immigrants were among our best
citizens and became prosperous, peace-lov-
ing and intelligent citizens. Nearly all
were educated, and some very highly. AS
a class they would compare very favorably
with constituents of the senator from In
diana. When the North Dakota senator
concluded he was congratulated by his col
league, Senator Casey, REPRESENTATIVE
Hansbrough, Senators Washburn, Hale.
Allen, Dixon and Reagan. He made a
very favorable impression on the senators
and among the Spectators.

thies in their bereavement. The regiment
in which Capt. Mitchell served constituted

on the field of battle. There was no better
officer in the service than Capt. Mitchell,

Mr.. Quinn, Goodbye.

1t is with feelings of deep regret the
TRIBUNE now parts with Mr.. j. M. Quinn,
whose bright scintillations have dubbed
forth in these columns during the past
seven years. He has been a loyal Bis
marcker, a true and conscientious friend
of his co-workers, and the sorrow of his de-
parture is only Eequalled by the delight
that he has an opportunity to better him
self, to get into a broader field for newspa-
per work. Mr.. Quinn leaves for Butte,
Mont, Saturday, to accept q position on the
Daily Miner. He will take with him not
only the well-wishes of the TRIBUNE, but
Of the community for whose prosperity he
has wished and worked so we'll. In the
departure Of Mr.. Quinn not only the city,
but the state sustains a loss. His newspa.
per specialties were we'll known all over
the state and his general traits of personal
character made him popular with all
classes. May the people OF his newly
chosen home understand and appreciate
his worth, and Providence and fortune
smile upon him as he journeys on through
life. In the departure of Mrs Quinn Bis
marck society loses one of its most accom-
plished and charming members. @

Changes in Election Laws.

Fargo Republican: Under the new regu-
lations the polls are to be kept open con-
%tinuously from 9 m. to p. M, and no
longer-a change by which the noon ad-
journment and the consequent loss of time
will be dispensed with. Another change
relates to the term of residence required in
order to vote. The constitution provides
that a person, in order to vote, must reside
in the state n year, in the county six
months, and in the precinct ninety days,
next preceding the election; and must either
be a citizen of the United State, or declared
MS intention to become a citizen, one year
and not more than six years, prior to such
election.

How the Farmers Will Get Seed,

Senator Worst returned from st. Paul
yesterday, having been present at the meet
ing of the seed wheat commission. He
says the guarantee fund is being subscribed
by the business men of st. Paul and Min
neapolls, that the wheat is to be given at
the rate of $1.0O per bushel, thus adding
sufficient in price to cover a loss of at least
one-third. Provided there is no loss, the
money charged above the market price of
the wheat will be returned. In other words.
each farmer guarantees pay by his neigh
bort is a sort of a mutual farmers seed
wheat association by which the farmers in
the aggregate furnish money to buy seed
wheat for those who will not be able to pay
for the same.
