At present it seems pretty we'll settled
that there will be but three candidates for
congress from the second district, Col.
Kttredge Haskins of Brattleboro, Hon.
Frank Plumley of Northfeld, and Hon.
W. P. Stafford of St. Johnsbury. Speak
ing of Mr.. Stafford the St. Johusbury
Caledonian of last week said: "Of the
three candidates it is universally con-
ceded that he is the best orator, and a
good speech from brainy speaker counts
on the floor of Congress more than any
where else. The increase of the social, in
dustrial and territorial problems has Gre
ated a greater demand for the scholar in
politics and in Mr.. Stafford we have Just
such man-not theorist or an idealist,
but one who has made close study of all
these problems and who has purified poll
tics whenever he has entered the arena"

The cartoon on page - from the St.
John.bury Republican is one of the clever
est things which has appeared in Vermont
papers recently. For several weeks the
Burlington Free Press and the Montpelier
Journal had been calling each other the
blacklist kind of names. But in due sea-
son there was rift in the clouds, and now
the sunshine of brotherly love prevails. The
Journal declared it would support Dilling-
ham for the senate through thick and thin
and no one else, and the Free Press has
tened to say Amen. Since that suspicious
day the public has not heard dissenting
whisper, but the cartoon gives an idea of
what is going on behind the scenes.

participate" The marriage took place
November 9. What is the messenger driv-

The Crawford Case.

OF the Crawford case, in which the
supreme court handed down a decision
as stated yesterday, the Fargo Forum
says:
The Crawford case is familiar to the
general public. Crawford lives north of
town, and last winter imagined it was
his duty to live off other people. His
method of obtaining the property the
other people wouldn't give him, was to
drive up to wheat granaries, bore a hole
through the wall or floor and then carry
off all the wheat he wanted. When ar
rested he was bound over to the district
court. On the trial there Judge Pollock
ordered the jury to bring in a verdict of
acquittal, as the elements of burglary
were not embodied in the crime, COM
mitted by Crawford, and the defendant
was guilty only of petit larceny.
There was only one identical case to
this in the whole United States, the only
difference being that corn was stolen in
stead of wheat. In that the supreme
court had held boring with an augur
was burglary. States Attorney Morrill,
and Assistant Engerud were both so
positive that the court was wrong that
the unusual procedure of an appeal by
the state was taken and they won.
AS Judge Pollock ordered Crawford's
acquittal, the fellow cannot be further
punished for that o~tfense, but may be
rearrested on a similar charge. He will
be compelled to study up some new
scheme for this winter.

fine music for the celebration at
jamestown is one of Supt. Caniield's
special sources of satisfaction. The
bands repertoire is extensive and
their music excellent. The govern
ment does not appropriate any money
for the bands support. but allows the
proceeds of a certain amount Of reser-
walton land. which the Indian boys
farm themselves to go for new music.
Instruments. etc. The leader of the
band, Alfred Venne, could not speak
English when the band began prac-
ticing which was the case with most
OF the members. The members
some twenty-five in all-are about half
caste Indians and have acquired their
present proficiency by hard practice.
Ille notion that they have no ear for
harmony is II wrong one.
Supt. Garfield says it does the In
dams more good to make a trip Of
several days into the towns and other
parts of the state. and mingle with
the people than months of schooling.
Things Are seen and heard which
stimulate the Indian to greater effort
to get out of the tribal life. The In
dian stage hold-ups at the Mandan
fair are not regarded as a good thing
for the Indian, however cdifying they
may be to the white man.

to see President Mckinley, Oct. Is.
There will also be Il considerable del

of this opportunity. 1t is estimated
there will be 10000 guests at Fargo
when the president comes. The
present plan of the entertainment
committee there is to dine President
Mckinley and party at the Waldorf.
The only guests other than they will
be the senators and their wives and
the congressman and wife. the gov
ernor and wife, and the supreme, Z.
S. and district judges may be invited.
There will be nothing in the nature
Of a banquet. 1t will be a good din
ner, and no more time will be devoted
than necessary in order that the pres
ident may have more time to see and
be eel The number to meet him
will simply be just sufficient to en-
tertain-nothing more.
II the presidential party arrives
early enough Il drive will be had
around the city,. Otherwise the par
ade and review will occur first.

dent and members Of the cabinet from

which it will be arranged so tho pres

The boys say they might not object to
living at Manila if There were more
Europeans, or rather English speak,
ing peoples, in business. But the
business is done mostly by Spaniards,
Germans and Chinese. The latter do
the retail business. The Spaniards
do the more extensive business. They
are 1anguid shopkeepers, and not
given to making much to do over
prospective customers. When YOU
enter a business establishment there
Is no one to impress on you the merits

HOstetter's
Stomach
Bitters.
Major Whites Popularity.

Major White is dcservedly popular
among the North Dakota boys. A. Val
ley City account says: The major is a
remarkably well balanced man. He
seemed to have been an ideal military
officer on the field, but off duty was a
hale fellow with every man, preserving
his respect at all times. In numerous
instances he saved men from probable
court martial, at least from unpleasant
experiences. On one occasion he is re-
ported to have been riding into camp
n night when he found a sergeant
gloriously drunk on the line. The ser
geant vas ordinarily a good fellow but
was celebrating a recent victory on this
particular occasion. Instead of ordering
his arrest the major got the fellow on
his horse and back to his tent to
sober up.
On many occasions in battle he dis
played the most signal bravery, an essen
tial SO admired by the troops. The boys
say no gamer man fought in the war.
They assert that he was absolutely fear
less and always cool under the most
trying circumstances.
In Japan the major added to his popu-
larity. He had gone to Yokohoma a
day or so ahead of the troops. When
the Grant arrived there he learned that
the boys had not received their last
months pay, through an error some
where. They were all broke and the
major realized how they felt under the
circumstances. He hada personal check
cashed at a discount and distributed s.
bills among the boys who were short I'm.
til they reached Frisco. 1t is needless
to say every man thus favored repaid
the major with the first money from
Uncle Sam at Preside.
