LINDELlE IS HERE.
Secretary of the Enforcement League is

Own Account.
Some Detectives Here and Others Re

Looking for Evidence.

Secretary A. E. Lindelie of the state
enforcement league has been in the city
for several days past. Mr.. Lindclie's
visit to Bismarck at this time has occas-
stoned considerable comment and con-
lecture. TO the TRIBUNE last Saturday
he stated that his visit was purely unof-
fetal and that he was simply here to
meet old time friends who were brought
to this city by the convention Of the leg
islature. Subsequent developments,
however, would tend to show that his
visit to the capital city at this time was
nothing il not official. All sorts of rum
ors are atioat and it is expected that a
sensation Of the first water will be sprung
by the dry man from Grand Forks be
fore many more moons. 1t is sure that
there are at present in the city-his
chief Gleason-and other agents of The
enforcement League who are looking for
evidence against local parties.

An Old Time Railroader.

Valley City Times-Record: Thos. M.
Murphy of Sanborn went to work for
the N. P. company in September, 1870,
as foreman of a work train. At that
time but three and a half miles of the
road had been completed. He served us
foreman, road master and conductor for
t~wenty-four years and during that time
had but forty-five days as a lay-off. He

in Valley City and was at one time Of

On July 4, 1874, he was running a work
train and at work here in Valley City,
but was chosen out by a party of In
dams, who were camped along the river
in the timber. Some of his men had
given the Indians liquor and had been
visiting their camp. The Indians be-
came SO ugly that Mr.. Murphy conclud-
ed it would be the part of wisdom to
load his men on the train and get out OF
here, which he did. The next day the
Indians went away and the men re.

On New Years morning an Indian
named William Otlway and his squaw,
Mary Thomas, were cremated in their
teepee near Winnipeg. The tepee was
erected on st. Boniface side of the river
about t~bree-fourths of mile northeast of

the two had been celebrating the occa-

and that otter they had fallen into a

caught fire, and both were too drunk to
save themselves. When found on Sun
day morning the body of the woman
was lying with the burned remains of
the wigwam, while that of the Indian

The director of the department is said

Death of R. w. Knowlton.

Major Fleming, s,of Fargo, who is in
the city at the present time attending
the Legislative session, Saturday received
a telegram announcing the death of r.
w. Knowlton of Fargo, a Northern Pa
citic engineer who is quite we'll known in
Bismarck. Mr.. Knowlton was out driv,
ing yesterday about noon He was alone
and the team became frightened and
ran away. The particulars of the sad
affair are very meagre but it
appears that death was due
to apoplexy occasioned by the ex-
element caused by the runaway. Mr.
Knowlton was the Oldest engineer in
point of service, employed On the Dako.
tn division of the Northern1 Pacific, and
at the time of his death had a passenger
run on the Fargo Southwestern branch
of the road. He is well known to old
time Bismarck residents and used to
run into this city when it was the ter.
minal of the road. He was a mar OF
many noble traits of character, a veteran
of the civil war, a thirty-third degree
Mason and one of the most influential
members of that order in the state.
Adjutant General Miller recalls a lit.
tie incident in the life of Mr. Knowlton
which will undoubtedly be of interest at
this time. At the beginning Of the wal
Knowlton enlisted in a heavy artillery
battery, which at the battle of Gettys,
burg was in the hottest of the fight
During the course of the battle every
gunner in the entire battery with the ex-
ception of Knowlton was either killed
captured or disabled. It is related OF
him that he stayed by his piece to the
last, in fact until the rebels hauled il
away by hand and captured it. He es.
capped however, before the rebel lines
were reached and his heroic action al
this time, it is said, has since furnished
many an interesting newspaper article
Knowlton was a married man and
leaves a wife and two children who will
have much sympathy in their deep sor
row.

MANILA LETTER.
of Superintendent Edick
Tells Of the Bravery of the
North Dakotans.

A letter from j. R. Edick, dated at
Manila Nov. IA, to his parents, says:
Your welcome letter dated Sept. IA,
was received yesterday. 1t was the first
mail we have had in over a month, SO
you may be sure we were glad to get it.
We have been hoping they would send
regulars here to relieve us, but it looks
now as if we will have to spend the win
ter here, and perhaps put in our two
years. We can do it if we have to, but
there will be lots of the boys that will
never see home and dear oncs again, as
there is an average of three per day be-
ing carried away.
There is nothing to be feared from the
insurgents. Malaria is the worst thing
we have to fear. There is only about
half Of the company fit for duty. Twenty
one of the sick are in the brigade hos
pital: the rest are confined to quarters.
l am IL of the lucky ones-haven't been
sick to amount to anything yet. Mark
Yeater was quite sick but is back in
quarters again.
Major White distinguished himself on
the 18th of August. He was right along
with Company A all the time and would
tell us to lie down while he walked up
and down the road with Il shower
of Mauser bullets flying all around
him. He was covered with mud and
looked like the rest Of us. There is not
a man in the regiment who would not dc
anything in the world for the major. An
official map and report has been sent to
the war department. by Gen. Macarthur
and it put the North Dakota regiment
in a different light than some of the
newspaper reports have. Every regi-
ment want to have the credit for being
the first in the city, but all we want is
the facts. They speak for themselves
We know where we were and others dc
also. Gen. Macarthur was right along
with us. We do not need to tell you
how we behaved. We were the reserve
and supposed to be six hundred yards
back Of the first line, but through some
mistake we went right up to the first
and were then ordered back two hun.
dred yards. Going up and coming back
we were in sets of fours. Picture fol
yourself marching up a road lined or
each side with thick bamboo. The BAN
boo tree is covered with limbs from tor
to bottom and each limb is covered with
thorns like a burberry bush so it is i'm.
possible to get through. 1t was a tick
fish place to be in but we kept our fours
dressed going and coming. The Mausers
were cutting the limbs over our heads
and splashing up the mud and and water
around our feet. At the same time mer
were running down the road from the
famous 18th Minnesota saying they were
all shot to pieces. Two companies Of
them were completely demoralized and
through their being ratified the Aston
battery lost their guns but r~ecaptured
them with their six shooters.
For their work on the 18th of August
the Minnesota boys are doing all the
police work down town while we gel
third glory for our share.

RHEUMATIC MISERY.

sofa, and fortunes Young
and Old.
Dodd's Kidney Pills the Only Cure for
1t-They are the Only Medicine
That Removes the Cause
of the Disease.

DULUTH, Jan. 9.-Ihe climate of this
state is such that rheumatism is a very
common disease. Almost every family
suffers from it's ravagcs. Young and old
are victims. Thousands of people are
crippled for life by it. A medicine that
can cure rheumatism is a Godsend. Ex-
perience has proved that linimcnts and
oils are of no more value than is cold
water rubbed on the check to cure
tooth-ache. That rheumatism is due to
diseased kidneys allowing poison to re-
main in the blood, instead of filtering it
out, has been abundantly proved by the
remarkable success of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, which act solely on the kidneys,
and which have cured every case of
rheumatism for which they have been
used.
A specimen case is that of Mr.. Patrick
Welch of 404 Lake avenue, this city; he
says: II have for years been tortured
by rheumatism and heart disease. My
case was very severe, and my sutferings
very great. I tried several kinds of med
icine but they did me no good, I went to
the best doctors who told me I never
could be cured, I was induced to use
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and I am happy to
state hat three boxes cured me fully
and thoroughly" If Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured this severe case of rheumatism,
they will certainly cure others. Are you
a sufferer from rheumatism? If you are
use a box or two Of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
They will certainly cur you.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are sold by all
druggists, at fifty cents a box, six boxes
$3.50, or sent on receipt of price by the
Dodd's Medicine Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

ton.

The Constitutional Amendment Cues
ton.
Representative McHarg, referring to
his resolution in regard to securing the
opinion of the attorney general in regard
to the legality of the vote on the amend
ment of sections 121 and 1877 said: '.You
will readily understand the complica-
tions at issue by first reading the two
sections referred to. Section 121 pro-
vides that every male person of the age
of twenty-one years or upwards, belong
ing to either of the following classes who
shall have resided in the state one year
and in the county six months and in the
precinct ninety days next preceding any
election shall be a qualified elector at
such election.
First-Citizens of the United States.
Second-Civilized persons of Indian
descent who shall have severed their
tribal relations two years next preceding
such election.
To my mind section 127 refers to diff
ferent subject matter altogether, and
should have been voted upon separately,
as provided for by the constitution. The
section reads as follows:
No person who is under guardianship,
non compos mentis, or insane shall be
qualified to vote at any election; nor
shall any person convicted of treason or
felony, unless restored to civil rights, and
the legislature shall by law establish an
educational test as a qualification, and
may prescribe penalties for failing, ne
glecting or refusing to vote at any gen.
eral% election.
Now, I would like to have some one
explain to me how to vote intelligently
on these two propositions? The first sec
ton provides for the voting of Indians
and the second refers to the qualification
of a certain class of voters. At the late
election these two propositions were
voted upon as n amendment and if you
voted for one you voted for both. The
constitution says plainly that all amend
ments shall be voted for separately
This was not done in this case and to
my mind the vote by which the amend
ment is claimed to have carried is null
and void"
