he, "than of any other of like character
in my life. for this is an occasion when
craftsmanship sinks and patriotism rises.
The company organized in this city and
vicinity goes forward to help make tie
first pages of war history that North
Dakota has known since statehood.
Into the union Of states she came in
time of peace. She had no heroic
records. The citizens of North Dakota
who knew military service saw that
service while accredited to other states
and companies. The roster of company
A made here tonight, is a roster of vol
unteers, many of whom are sons of vol
unteers and heroes Of other wars. For
weeks the cry has been for an oppor-
tunity to fight the Dons, and this proved
the sincerity of the demand on the part
of company A. And the enlistment is a
credit to II city, u state and our
nation. Forty years hence, the student
of history will find the names of the N.
d. boys enrolled among the heroes of
this conflict"
DIR. Bentley addressed himself in part
to the members of the company. -
would prefer said he, "to sit and in
dulge in thoughts that have been
started by this gathering, rather than
attempt to speak-thoughts of other
wars. when battles were fought for the
establishment and perpetuity of our
government. Ii is a grand sight to see
men enroll their anne today as they
were enrolled in other wars. The
soldier finds something in army life that
develops the best and truest manhood,
for men who share dangers and hard
ships, obedient to command, ready to do
duty, derive lessons, patience, obedience,
self-restraint and sympathy This is
why there is so strong a tie between old
soldiers. There is a tie between me and
the new soldier who enlists in the cor
pany, second only to that between me
and the old soldier, for it was my privi-
lege to organize the first militia and my
honor to command it for seven years;
and as I said to them I say to you on
this the first day of your service, never
forget that you are a gentleman,
and though cut loose from the
envirnments of social and home
life, whether in field or in camp,
upon you rests the honor of your town,
your county and your state. Let me
call your attention to the record of the
gallant old First Minnesota. No act or
deed is recorded against it that
was other than honorable, and to have
been a member of that gallant first is a
sure passport to any society whenever
deeds of heroism and true patriotism
are known. A like opportunity is
opened to company A, and I feel sure it
will not be wanting. The war opens up
with a declaration by the Spaniards
that they fight for honor! Honor in
deed, or the part of a nation that
starves men and women, not by tens,
but by tens of thousands, and revels in
deeds of cruelty unexcelled by the
Turks. Indian chivalry is infinitely
better than Spanish honor. The war is
a var for Free Cuba, and our part is to
organize nations to administer affairs of
human government on higher moral
planes. The cause is a holy one, and as
you go to the front every American
citizen says: MAY God Bless YOU"
Colonel Kinter and Professor Moore
each made appropriate remarks.

Adjutant General Corbin Says the Call
of the President Will not Permit 1t.
In answer to the request of prominent
North Dakotans that this state be al
lowed to furnish a full infantry regi-
ment of three battallions and twelve
companies under the call for volunteers,
a telegram was received from sdjutant
General Corbin last evening stating that
under the call of the president no adj
ditions to the quota of states could be
enlisted as all states were returning full
quotas.
1t was stated however that North
Dakota's two battallions of the infantry
would not be merged with any other
command and would not lose their,
identity but would 60 into the service
as a North Dakota regiment.
Could the increase have been made IL
would have permitted the elistment Of
most of the men who wanted to go, and
it would have given the boys from the
state a better opportunity for promotion,
as it would have been a %coionel's COM
mand.
No secretary of war ever found just
such difficulties in organizing an army
as those that confront Secretary Alger
and Adjutant General Corbin at this
time. In former wars the difficulty was
to c u volunteers. Now the difficulty
is to put a limit on the number to be
accepted from each state. The war de-
partment arranged the quotas under;
the. presidents call, and then began the
trouble. Scarcely q western state but
has made application for a larger quota.
It was at first estimated that rs per
cent OF the national guard would enlist,
but now it appears that the whole guard
is ready to go to war, and that there are
thousands more who want to get in and
be on the muster roll. The war depart
ment at first did not consider it adyis-
able to call for cavalry regiment, as this
is not a horse war, and but few cavalry
troops can be usedto advantageyin Cuba.
But the west wanted to enliet cavalry,
and many companies and battallions in.
western states were changed from in
fantry to cavalry IA order to satisfy the
desire there to enlist as troopers and
because it was thought a few hundred
rough rider from the west might be used
to advantage.

Editor George B. Winship of Grand

city are in the city today in consultation
with the governor and adjutant general
regarding a possible increase of the
number of volunteers called upon from
North Dakota to afull regiment of three
battallions instead of the two battallions
that have been called for.
kilograms have been sent to the war
department and to the representatives
of the state at Washington to see if this
cannot be done.
Such a change would give the volun-
teers at Grand Forks and in other
towns where there are no militia COM
panies, an opportunity to enlist.

TO GUARD PEKIN LEGATION.
A Small Squad of Marines From the
Boston Are Landed

Washington, Nov. 27.-The United
States navy has landed marines in China.
A dispatch was received at the navy de-
partment yesterday stating that the cap
tain of the Charleston had landed ma
rine guard at Tlen Isln'
The dispatch was taken Immediately to
the White house by Acting Secretary AL
len. Secretary Hay was called into con
sultation with the result OF reassuring the
officials and allaying the first feeling OF
apprehension.
1t seems the marines were landed not
because OF any information OF rioting or
attacks upon American missionaries, but
solely to act as guard for the United
States legation at Pekin.
The Boston was dispatched to the
mouth of the Hio Ho river several weeks
ago at the instance of United States Min
lister Conger to provide guard for the ie
cation. The minister represented that
nearly all OF the legations OF European
powers were provided with marine guard
and he did not care to be exceptional II
this case.
Captain Wilder, commander of the Bos
ton, reported the landing to the navy de
partment by cable. He did not state hoV
MANY men were in the guard, but tn
force is not believed to exceed two doZ
en- men.

A Brutal Murder.

St. Louis, Nov. 2S.-Aged Grandma
Wynn, the richest resident of Brooklyn.
Ills, and owner of half the town which
lies across the river from here, was muir
dered Friday night or early Saturday
morning, by robbers who cut her throat
and left her dead in the front yard, after
ransacking the house. Mrs. Wynn, who
frequently had considerable money in the
house, lived entirely alone. She was a
kindly old lady, with many virtues. Her
only failing was desire to live by herself.
She managed her own estate personally,
collected her rents, loaned her money and
invested her savings without consulting
anyone. Mrs. Wynn was estimated to be
worth from $4,000 to 100000.

VIII Argue in Rhyme.

Anderson, Ind, Nov. 25.-The attorney
for the defendant in case in the circuit
court served notice that he would pre-
sent his argument in poetry. The attor-
neys for the plaintiff protested and the
court arose in dignity and said that he
would not admit poetical arguments.
The matter led to an argument about
the right to employ poetry in law and it
was found that there were no presidents
or statutes against such a method and
the poetical attorney was obdurate.
The court refused to let the case pro-
coed on this basis and it was postponed
until January 2. The attorneys for the
defense insist that they will present and
argue their case in rhyme, and there
seems to be no way to hold them off.
