Stevens Opinion,


Speaking of affairs political, Hon. R.
N. Stevens said today: eff I lived in
Cass county. I suppose I would be for
Edwards for governor. If I lived in
Grand Forks, I have no reason to say
that I would not be for Winship. Liv-
ing as I do on the Missouri slope, local
pride would influence me to be for a
candidate for governor who lived in
that locality, and I am. Burleigh
county will choose a delegation to the
state convention on the 18th of July
and should the convention see fit to
send me as one of the delegates, I would
of course obey their instructions, but if
1 had no instructions I would be favor
able to the candidacy of Frank A.
Briggs for reelection and following
down the line Iwould be for those of
the present administration who are
seeking or desire denomination. I am
reasonably we'll acquainted with the
official conduct of the members of the
present administration and am satisfied
that it has been a success. David
Crockett once said, "be sure you are
right and then go ahead" We know
from experience that the interests of
the state and of the republican party
are safe in the hands of the men who
are now in control and for that reason,
I believe that Crocket's expression, to
let we'll enough alone, is very good to

Mrs. Lydia NJ. Hayden of Marion, Ind.
writes:
Before commencing the use of Paine's
celery compound I was treated by many
doctors and tried man. remedies, but
did not get any better. I seemed to be
all broken down, l was tired all the time
and my constitution seemed to be giving
out. I weighed only 115 pounds last
fall when I commenced using Paine's
celery compound. In less than two
months I weighed 1874 pounds, an un-
usual weight for me. I have had better
health ever since and have felt better
this summer than I have for years.
"My little daughter was away from
home on a visit, and came home looking
as if she had had a hard sickness. 1
went right away and got her a bottle of
Paine's celery compound, and she has
bad better health since than she ever
had in her life, eats hearty and is grow
ing fast"
No woman in any way out of health can
in justice to herself and her family fail to
take Paine's celery compound when it's
power of restoring health is so abund.

Progressive Schools.

Progressive
To THE TRIBUNE: / have returned
from an extended trip through the
county visiting schools, I have found
them we'll attended and progressing
nicely.
Crofte, the new district has a fine new
school building and a good school.
Grass Lake district seems to be TAX
ing the lead in school interest in the
northern partof the county, and they
are reaping the benefits of good school
management. The crops throughout
the county are above the average.
The slope summer training school
for teachers, is now a sure thing, and
will be held at Bismarck, beginning
August 8, and continuing three weeks,
the counties of Burleigh, Morton, Mer-
Ger and Oliver having combined to make
it a success. Three of the best educa-
tors have been secured to conduct the
school, and the same will be conducted
on a line of work mostly below the sixth
grade, and will be for the benefit of the
teachers in their every day work.
Circulars will be sent to all the teach
ers on the slope at once, and they can
arrange.fo r their vacation during the last
three weeks of August, which will enable
them to embrace the best opportunity
they have ever had to assist in raising
the standard of education on the slope.

Bismarck's Excellent Schools.

Bismarck's Excellent Schools.
Says the Emmons County Record:
While the writer was in Bismarck last
week be attended the graduating exer-
cises of the class of '9S of the high
school. The people of the Capital City
have every reason to be proud of their
school system, and that they are proud
of and take an interest in it is shown by
the large attendance that was present at
the public exercises. The Bismarck peo-
pie are extremely fortunate in having at
the head of the schools Prof. Moore, a
gentleman thoroughly competent as an
educator, n who takes pride in his
work, and who uses many hours of his
time outside of statutory school hours
for the purpose of adding to the
thoroughness of the instruction given.
Mr.. Moore is an ideal principal, for the
reason that he feels responsible to a
great extent for the thoroughness of the
instruction given to pupils who attend
the city schools. His work is not of a
%perfunctory nature, but thoroughly ener-
getic and earnest. And, when one thinks
of it. what a great debt of gratitude the
young man or oma graduate owes to
the faithful principal and teachers who
have made earnest efforts to send the
graduate forth with a sound knowledge of
the branches studied, instead Of with a
superficial smattering that must bring
grief to the student when he goes to a
higher institution or attempts to apply
the education that he thought he had
obtained. And the Bismarck people are
not the only ones who have been bene-
flied by the excellence of their schools.
A large proportion of the children who
have attended the city schools have
come from counties contiguous to Bur-
leigh, and among them Emmons has
had a large representation. From the
pupils of this county, and their parents,
we have heard many word of praise of
the Bismarck schools. There have been
some bitter political troubles among the
city folks, but through all such troubles
there seems to have bsen an understand
ing on all sides that competency and
character and not political consideration
should be the basis on which principal
and teachers should be employed. And
what a great injustice it would be to the
children should any other method ever
come t o prevail.

Green on Alaska.

State Senator J. S. Green was in the
city yesterday having returned several
days ago from a trip of several months
through Alaska. He looks we'll and
Notwithstanding the fact that he has
been tramping about over the mountains
and through the ice fields of that region

left Mandan for Alaska. Mr.. Green,
while not an enthusiast concerning
Alaska, states that the country lie
richer in gold than is generally sup
posed and that more gold is coming out
of Alaska than is appreciated by the
mass of the people.
cit is a very rich country" said Mr..
Green, yesterday, "richer than many
people believe, but the getting of gold
is difficult and there will be many I'M
successful ones return. On the other
hand, many of those who have gone
about the gold seeking business in the
right way will make money and return
rich. 1t must be remembered hat the
only deposits of gold that are being
worked now are the rich ones. The
cost of transportation-of living and of
getting to the gold fields is such that
miners cannot afford to work claims
which pay only moderate returns. They
could not make money at tin fact
they could not break even. But there
are thousands of acres of land in Alaska
which would pay So to $40 a day to the
miner, and as % as the means Of get
ting into the gold fields is easier and
the cost of living less, we will see much
gold come out of the region in small
lots. Our party has twelve men grub
staked, and all Of them are prospecting.

We buy their outfits and keep them for
two years and in return we get half
their finds. 1t costs us about $500 a
man to grub stake them. They in turn
have a pool among themselves and d.
vide up their profits. They are all hon
est and capable men and we expect to
make some money out Of the deal"

BURGLARS ARRESTED.
Arrest Of the Three Persons Supposed
to Have Burglarized o'shaugh-
nessy's Store.
Senator ]. S. Green of Mandan Tells Of
His Experiences in the Alaskan
Gold Fields.
Details Of the Leaving Of the North
Dakota Troops on the Valencia
for the Philippines.
Arrested for Burglary.
From Wednesdays Daily.

Three young fellows were arrested in
Mandan this morning by A. E. Nc
Gahey for the suspected burglary of
O'Shaughnessy's store last Saturday
afternoon. McGahey crossed the bridge
at midnight last night and deserves
credit for following up and capturing
the men who had a good start to make
their escape. The three gave their
names as Harry Williams, Henry
Blanchard and Charles Davis, and not
one of them appeared over twenty-five
years of age. They hail from st. Paul
and Minneapolis and several knives, a
revolver and some other property was
found in their possession which we're
identified by Mr.. O'Shaughnessy as
part of the property that had been
stolen from his store.
The three fellows we're among the
number arrested Saturday evening and
were suspected by the officers of having
been concerned in the burglary, but as
there was no evidence against them and
none of the property was found in their
possession they were released. A watch
was kept on them by the officials, as it
was believed they would make an at
tempt to secure the stolen property if
they had hidden it, and get away with
it. Last evening shortly before 6 o'clock
one Of the section men stated to the
officials, while in the hand car house
with his crew, he saw some one digging
beneath the back end of the house, and
he identified the man as Williams.
Afterward, he said, Williams came to
the front door of the place and said he
had found a "cache'' and secured a re-:
volver therein. The men were accord
ingly followed and arrested, just as they
were about to leave Mandap on No. l
and the stolen property found in their
possession.
Williams was arraigned this morning
for a hearing before Justice Tibbils and
told that he had gone behind the hand
car house to get out of the rain, while
waiting about the yards to catch a
freight train, and while there saw one
of the section men digging into the
ground under the house and taking out
knives, at which he took a hand in the
matter and secured the revolver and
several knives, although he denied hav-
ing stolen them. He admitted, however,
that he had taken them knowing them
to be stolen. The case was not COM
pleted this morning and was continued
this afternoon.
Williams was held this afternoon for
trial in $1,000 bonds. The other two
men will have their hearing tomorrow.

ALFRED STILLMAH HERE.
SECRETARY OF PACIFIC BOARD
OF FIRE UNDERWRITERS.
Met With the Local Agents Yester-
day and Discussed Affairs of This
District - Commissioner Clunie's
Action.

Mr.. Alfred Stillman. secretary of the
exeuctive committee of the board of fire
underwriters of the Pacific. is making one
of his periodical visits to Salt Lake, ac-
companied by c. R. Gilbert of Butte
manager of the Montana division of the
board.
In view of the recent trouble in Cali
fornia insurance circles caused by In
suranCe Commissioner Clunie Of II at state,
Mr. Stillman was looked up by a re-
of the matter further than to say his
visit here was of no especial significance.
M. Clunie threatened to break up the
compact in order as he said. that rates
might be lower and more equitable What
action the board would take Mr. Still
man would not say. The matter was in
the hands of the attorneys and would be
fought in courts in the near future.
Local insurance agents met Mr.. Still
man at the office of the board in this
city yesterday. Several subjects of local
import We're discussed and general affairs
OF this district reviewed.
AS to the probability of the compact be-
ing broken up and a general rate war en-
suing. local specials do not seem to fear
The rates are made very low and should
the present board go to the wall there IS
little doubt but that a new one would
be Immediately organized.
Mr.. Stillman says that the recent repeal
of the segregation clause in regard TO
dwelling house policies had nothing to do
with Mr. Clunies action. but was done in
dependently by the executive committee
of the board.
Mr.. Stillman is staying at the Alta club.
He leaves Monday morning for ogden,
and will go from there to the coast.

COLORADO LABOR ARBITRATION
STATE BOARD FINDS IN FAVOR
OF THE MINERS.
History of Dispute Between Coal
Miners and Operators of Colorado
and It's Happy Termination.

Denver Colo, Feb. 1.-THE state
board of arbitration rendered its de-
cision tonight on the questions in dis
pute between the miners and operators
of the northern Colorado coal district.
The board found in favor of the strik-
ing miners in every particular.
Early in January the miners en-
ployed in the Louisville and Lafayette
districts submitted demands to the
operators for an increase in the sched-
ule paid for labor in these districts.
The operators refused fatty to consider
their demands and the men went out
on a strike. Several conferences were
held between the operators and the rep
resentatives of the miners, but without
any settlement being reached. Then
the miners of the Louisville district
withdrew their demands and went to
work. 1t was finally agreed between
the Lafayette men and the operators
to submit their case to the state board
of arbitration. On the I'd of February
the board started it's investigation, and
since that time has been engaged on
the case continuously until tonight.
when its decision was made, granting
the miners of the Lafayette district
each and every demand made by them
of the operators.

STOP YOUR OWN CUTTING.
ANSWER OF CANADIAN PACIFIC
TO AMERICAN LINES.
Alleges the Yankee Roads Are Cut
ting Rates Right Now From
Chicago and New York City.

Montreal, Feb. 1.-THE officials of
the Canadian Pacific railroad profess
to be not at all afraid of boycott by
the western roads. The appeal from
Chicago to Vice President Shaughnessy
has not altered their attitude.
'Boycotting has been tried before"
said an official of the road today. but
ii has never amounted to very much.
The western roads officials have been
wrestling with the matter for some
weeks. and it has gone from the pas
senger agents to the highest authori-
ties. Every time the Canadian Pacific
was asked to join in conference the
same reply was forthcoming. Stop
your own rate-cuttins and then we
Will talk 10 you But the rate-cutting
is still going on. and the latest news
is that q secret rate of S25 can be had
from Chicago and S47 from New York
to the Pacific coast. In the meantime
Klondike travel is growing. From adj
vices received by the Canadian Pacific
passenger department, the number of
people who left the Pacific seaports for
Alaska and Yukon points was 5,i55 for
the month between Jan. and Feb.
inclusive. That number is considered
small compared with what it VIII be in
