est, from the fact that a Governor and
state officers are to be elected. The
Legislature that will be chosen at the

Conventions and the ensuing election in
November will be of added Importance.

the second woman who has ever at.
tempted to end her life in this way She
is now i'll the Hudson Street hospital
The physicians found that no bones
were broken. but they say it is possible
that she has sustained internal injuries.
She is about 80 years old, and was
formerly part owner of boarding
house i'll this city. She stepped from a
carriage in motion, about so feet from
the bridge tower on the New York end,
and dropped to the water below, strik,
ing, according to an eyewitness, about
20 feet from the Clyde line pier, which
encircles the tower. She was picked up
by the crew of the tug Tacoma, which
was moored near by. The fact that she
had no money and had ordered herself
to be driven to q place in Brooklyn,
where she is not known leads the police
to believe that suicide was planned
For non-payment of installments and
rent, Miss Dins was dispossessed on
Wednesday from boarding house that
she and a man named f. Maudin were
running on Twenty third street Since
that time she has been melancholy and
has remained iii her room most of the
time

PUZZLING RESULT OF

ing their armor equipment, at S545 per
ton, the price asked for krupp armor, is
out of the bill, as is the provision TO re-
peal the $500 limitation placed upon the
price Of armor by the current law. The
fight came at the end of the considera-
ton of the bill.
Although the provision was obnox-
ions to the rule all the minority mem
beers of the committee had agreed to it,
but when the majority declined to al.
low the discussion of a proposition for
the establishment Of an armor plate fac
tory they retaliated by raising point
of order against the two provisions
above referred to, and they We're ruled
out The exact effect of the action of
the house is disputed. The appropria-
ton of $4,000, 900 under the head of
''armor and armament remains i'll the
bill, as well as the language of the pro-
viso authorizing the secretary Of the
navy to contract for armor of the best

ing royalties. y
1t is contended by some that this en-
powers the secretary to contract for the
armor without regard to cost. By 9TH
ers it is claimed that the provision will
be ineffective unless the senate inserts
the price. So much bad feeling was
aroused by the wrangle over the armor
plate provision that Mr.. Underwood, of
Alabama, began q filibuster after the
bill was reported to the house. and final
~ forced an adjournment without final
action ON the bill
Before the armor plate question came
up. two amendments to modify the pro-
visions for the increase of the navy
which authorizes two battleships and
six cruisers, were defeated. One pro-
posed to add provision for six gunboats
and the other TO strike out the provision
for the battleships The question of
building ships in government yards did
not reach vote, as the amendment Of
fered to this end was ruled out on a
point of order.

ANOTHER LIE NAILED.

MANDAN INDEPENDENTS STORY
REGARDING THE RAILROAD
ING OF TWO MEN TO THE PEN
ITENTIARY.
The Mandan Independent got an
other lying streak on the other day,
and published a sensational article
about the %railroading of two men to
the penitentiary by Theodore Roosa-
welt, when the latter was spending a
winter in the Bad Lands. The hide
pendent said the two men sent up were
little more than boys and that they
stole a boat of small value, to get
down the river and keep themselves
from freezing to death. The hide
pendent also spoke in aggrieved tones
of the cruelty Of Roosevelt in HOUND
ing the men to doom. Now w. E.
Gibson of Mandan, who knows some
thing about the matter, says:
Il nave read the article and affidavit
published in the independent regard

DEAN COLLINS OF MANDAN
NAILS ANOTHER CAMPAIGN

CANARD.
Mandan, N. D., Oct. ia story
was current here this week among
the 'unterrified" that Dean Collins CT
the Roman Catholic church at Mandan
had preached a sermon in which he
mad come out for Bryan. The dean
has been a republican yer since there
has been a republican party, and such
a story was not believed by those who
know him. A reporter who investi-
gated the matter found that lie
preached a sermon on patriotic viz
tues, and all he said about Bryan III
the course of his remarks was as fol-
lows:
Among the many speakers who
are now enlightening the American
people | was very favorably impressed
with some speeches made by M.
Bryan, particularly because he in
sisted on the american people recall
ing 10 their memory the sacrifice, the
faith, the simplicity and love of coun-
try and of God among Americans dur

as ever. He said: Il believe Il

ANOTHER DEMOCRAT CHANGES.
Taylor Crum, of Fargo, a lifelong
democrat. says:
Il shall vote for President McKil-
ley. l believe it is for my personal
interest and in the interest of every
farmer, laborer and merchant in this
state tos do so. We had better let
well enough" alone.
"The history of the parties since
1850, the financial and business condi-
lions of the country and the make up
and claims of the parties, forced me to
the conclusion that the seer was right
when he said The democrats are eter-
nally trying to revive every issue that
is dead, and kill every issue that is
alive"
Il consider Mr.. Bryan a demagogle,
gifted, it is true, with rare powers OF
speech, utterly unfit to be president
of this great republic.
THE conclusions l arrived at in
1896 have been strengthened and for
titled by the unprecedented period Of
national prosperity which it has been
our good fortune to enjoy since the
inauguration o. Mr.. Mckinley in
1897.
Capital is now employed, confidence
is restored, labor is employed, and our
bank deposits are secure; we cannot
afford to change now and place Mr..
Bryan, an untried, political Soldier
OF fortune" who is running on three
different national platforms, in the
presidents chair.
We have tried free trade and pros
pective free silver, but free sou
houses were the result. The full
dinner pail suits me better.
Il would rather trust the republican
party than the party of secession and
30 cent dollars.
"Bryan's prophesies in 1896 have
ali been unfulflled; the evils and dis
asters he predicted have not mater
ialized. On the contrary, prosperity
has smiled on our land, and instead
OF borrowing money as we were Obliged
to do under democratic rule. we have
millions to loan, and have become Il
great world power.
1T is true that North Dakota has
had a drouth this year, but Mckinley
does not control the weather in our
locality. We can stand a drouth once
in thirty years better than Organism,
a deprecated currency, high interest
and national dishonor.
Let us fulfill our destiny manfully
and c~ourageously, and never pull down
the flag where it has been raised in
honor" over ground made sacred ny
