there has been an increase Of 5000
over the average republican majority
in the state. They show an increase
in the total vote over 1888 and a heavy
increase in the republican vote as COM
pared with 1898. III spite of the local
issues in the cities, the senate is unan-

THE ITINERARY.
1ntinerary of the Roosevelt Party
Through the State of North
Dakota Saturday.
Special Train Will Garry the Distin-
guished New Yorker from
Fargo West.
Governor Roosevelt Will be in the Citv
Until Sunday Morning, then go
West.

| When 1t was discovered that the ma
tional committee had made no, provi-
slons for a special train for the Roose-
velt party Chairman Bulge and Secre-
tary Jewell of the state committee
weht to st. Paul and as a result spe-
cial has been secured to take the party
from Fargo west Senator Carter of
Montana will join the party at Fargo
| and will be one of the speakers Fri
day night. Senator Nelson will also
be at the Fargo meeting. Senator
Hansbrough and Senator McCumber
will meet the Roosevel. party at Aber-
deem and accompany them through the
state. McCumber will leave the party
at jamestown in order to be present at
a grand rally to be held Saturday
evening. The itinerary of the special
from Fargo is as follows: Leave Far
go about Z a. m. Saturday. Arrive at
Valley City about 8, where stop of
an hour will be made. Arrive at
jamestown about noon where another
ovation will greet the trough rider"
Brief stops will be made at Steele and
other points enroute to Bismarck
where an evening meeting is to be held
at the Atheneum. "A special train
will be provided between Mandan and
Bismarck and special rates will be
given on the Northern Pacific from all
points tributary to Valley City, James,
town and Bismarck. A rate of one
fare and third for the round trip
will be made from points as far west
as Dickinson to Bismarck tickets
good until following day. 1t is ex-
pected that many will take advantage
of these rates to hear Mr.. Roosevelt
and Senator Carter as the following
day being Sunday it is not likely the
residents of the towns west of Bis
marck will have an opportunity to
hear any speaking. Brief stops will
be made, however, at Mandan, Dickin-
son and Medora. Going west from
Bismarck the special will leave Bis
marck Sunday morning. The Bis
marcS band will go to Valley City Fri
day afternoon and join the Roosevelt
special there Saturday morning. Com
mittees from Valley City, jamestown
and Bismarck will doubtless go to
Fargo Friday to meet Mr.. Roosevelt.
On the way to Fargo from Aberdeen
stop will be made at Wahpeton in
the afternoon to permit Mr.. Roosevelt
to talk to the people of Richland
county.

AT WASHINGTON

AND LITTLE WOOL IN THE ALAS
KAN REPORTS is WHAT IS SAID
AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, Sept. lit is stated
at the department of justice today that
no information has been received from
Alaska of an alleged political conspir-
acy in which Judge Noyes and Alex
ander Mckenzie are involved. On
the contrary, the reports recently re-
ceived are extremely complimentary
to Judge Noyes and are to the effect
that his administration Of his high
Office has been most satisfactory.
Neither has anything been received
from Attorney Braslin in the nature
of charges against Judge Noyes in his
administration of affairs in the Nome
district. a
It is also stated that since the gold
discoveries were made in Alaska, two
or three years ago, there has been
more or less dissatisfaction on the part
of defeated litigants for mining claims.
1t has often been necessary to send ex-
aminers to the territory to investigate
irregularities; but nothing seriously
wrong has yet been discovered. The
belief is expressed that the Braslan
case is similar to others that have oc-
CURED each year since 1898.

HOBBERY ADD TO THE HOR-
RORS OF THE SITUATION AT
GALVESTON.
Dallas, Sept 12.-Passengers arriv-
ing on morning trains tell horrible
tales of the Galveston situation. Hun
dreds of desperate men at night roam
the streets crazed with liquor. Rob-
bing and rioting are going on and as
the town is in darkness efforts at mil
itary control of the lawless elements
are not entirely successful. Bonfires
were built at various points to enable
the troops better to see. One returned
passenger said what is needed most is
fresh water, ice and soldiers, large
numbers of the latter. No competent
authority will estimate the dead at
Galveston under 5000 but figures are
in doubt. Those are looked for when
the unknown locations are searched.
An epidemic is almost sure to follow
from filth and animal matter begin
ming to decay.

JURY IN THE BROWN DAMAGE
SUIT AT FARGO BRINGS IN A

JURY IN THE BROWN DAMAGE
SUIT AT FARGO BRINGS IN A
VERDICT.
Fargo, Sept. 12.-After celebrating
for nine hours, the jury in the damage
suit of A. G. Brown against the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St.M Paul Railway
Co., returned verdict for the plain
tiff in the sum Of $4,000. The amount
sued for was $4,000, and the verdict
returned last evening occasioned the
public no little surprise, that larger
sum was not awarded than $4,000.
The case went to the jury Monday
afternoon upon practically an agreed
statement of facts. Mr.. Brown was a
passenger on the freight train going
south on the Milwaukee road, July 10,
1890, which passed through Batavia,
MINI. While switching at this sta
tion there was a coupling made be-
tween two portions of the train which
caused shock of unusual severity and
which threw Mr.. Brown to the floor of
the caboose. He has been helpless
invalid ever since, and his ultimate re-
covery is doubtful.
The jury had to decide whether or
not the shock was of unusual violence.
and as to- whether the plaintiff him
self was free from contributory negli-
gence on his part. The evidence
showed that the shock of the coupling
was of unusual and unnecessary vio-
lence, and WOu4u not have occurred
had the train been managed with
proper care and diligence, and that the
defendant railway company were ap-
proximately the cause Of nMr. Browns
injuries. 1t then remained for the
jury to decide upon the amount of
damages sustained.
It is understood that Mr.. Field, coun-
sci for the defendant, received a tele-
gram yesterday afternoon instructing
him not to appeal if the verdict was
In the neighborh0od of $4,000. This
is taken as significant that the rail-
road will settle. They will have ~
days in which to file exceptions and
appeal, or move for new trial.
The verdict seems to be a fair one
for the defendant, and in view of the
ample proof of the facts in the case it
IS very unlikely that it will be ap-
pealed.

FREE TRAIN.
REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE WILL
RUN A FREE SPECIAL TRAIN
FROM WILTON TO BISMARCK
SATURDAY

( RUN A FREE SPECIAL TRAIN
FROM WILTON TO BISMARCK
SATURDAY.
The republican central committee
has arranged with the officials of the
Bismarck, Washburn & Great Falls
railway for a special train from Will
ton to Bismarck Saturday afternoon
next, to bring down all who want to
attend the Roosevelt meeting Satur-
day evening. The train will be free
train, and all who desire to come will
be accommodated without expense to
them. The train will leave Wilton
early in the afternoon, arriving in the
city at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and
returning to Wilton Sunday morning.
This will give the people of northern
Burleigh and Mclean county an oppor-
tunity to attend the rally, of which
many will avail themselves. The off,
cials of the road and the committee
have telephoned the fact of the free
train to Wilton and Washburn.
Other arrangements are progressing
Farmer Wallace has the design for the
decorations prepared and will carry it
out well. Business men and resi-
dence owners should cooperate with
the committee and decorate their
homes and business places. Let the
whole city take on gala air, and ten
der such a welcome to Governor
Roosevelt as can be done when Bis
marck sets OUT to do it.

AT WILTON.
Items of News from Wilton and the
Country Tributary to that
Place.
Threshing in Progress and Results
Somewhat Better than
Expected.
(From the Wilton News.)

Hanson q Thor, the old-time Bur.
leigh county threshers, started uI
Thursday morning at William Asp
lund's, just south of Slaughter. The
grain in that neighborhood is turning
out we'll. Many fields will yield from
20 to 25 bushels per acre.
Threshing commenced on the Wash
burn farm at this place last Monday
morning. The oats turned out little
better than 35 bushels to the acre
while the wheat averaged fraction
over fifteen bushels.
Charlie, the little son of Jake Kilian
who has been confined to the hospital
aC Bismarck from injuries received by
the explosion of cartridge, his re-
turned home. 1t was thought his eye
sight would be impaired, but this was
averted by prompt and skillful medi-
cal treatment.
Frank Little is threshlng in Crofte
township, having started up this week
The yield in that vicinity is far exceed
ing expectations and the result is that
during the fall and early winter
months considerable wheat will be
hauled to Wilton or Baldwin.
Sheriff Allen Mcdonald arrived from
Washburn Wednesday. He was on
his way to Jamestown with Mrs. VIM.
Reuter- of Turtle Lake, who is a victim
of mental arrangement. 1t is a sad
case, indeed, this being her third trip
to the state hospital.
County Auditor Schallern of Man
dan arrived here by special train Sat-
urday evening with a steam threshing
rig and started up Monday. The
steamer burns Ignite from the mines
near here and no difficulty is exper-
fenced in keeping a full head of steam
on while stationary, and when on the
road, we are informed, that the addi-
tional draft is so great that the engin-
eer occasionally sees fit to hang mig
ger" on the safety valve. This is the
first Ignite burner that has operated
near this place, and it is not at all un-
likely but that in the near future lig-
mite will replace straw burners while
the straw can be used to better advan-
tage for stock during the winter
months.
