LEGISLATIVE RECORD.

No one acquainted with the
facts has ever CLAIMED that L. A..
Simpsons Legislative record of
four years was not a credit to him
self and his constituents.
Here is what the Bismarck Tri
bune said in January, 1896:
The ease with which Representative
Simpson got his county boundary bill
through is an evidence of the cleverness
on the part of the gentleman from Stark
in legislative matters. His opponent,
Mr.. Murphy, had a pocket full of amend
ments, had good logical arguments to
present, but Simpsons responsiveness
knocked out all appeal for delay or in
vestigation. When the vote was taken
but three members voted in the negative,
Notwithstanding the fact that several had
argued against it.
The Mandan Pioneer, in Febru-
airy, 1895, made the following
comment on our representatives:
The representatives of this legislative
district voted against McGillivray
and Simpsons county extension bill.
They did SO for several reasons, promin-
ent among which is the fact that Oliver
county does not want it. However, the
Pioneer wants to give Messrs. McGil-
livray and Simpson due credit for their
energy and tact in securing the passage
of their bill. They have left no stone
unturned to pass their measure. They
we're elected on the issue. They have
done we'll by their constituents. They
are just the kind of people to get bills
through. Both are eloquent when they
get warmed up. to their subjects. Diff
ference of opinion may exist as to this
bill, but the Pioneer gives them credit
for being sincere in their contention that
it is a good and fair measure. They
make a rafting good team-do this sena-
tor and this representative. If Stark,
Billings and Mercer have anything else
they want, let them tell Messrs. McGil-
livray and Simpson what it is, and keep
on sending these men to the legisla-
ture, or better still, to congress. They
would get theearth for their counties
if they were members of the Parlia-
ment Of Nations.
Both of the foregoing papers
were naturally, prompted by jeal-
ousy, opposed to our county bill:
but admiration of ability and hust-
ling qualities prompted their ut
terances.
Did any of the state papers
speak of Alt Whites ability? No.
The Dickinson press., 1900-10-20

voters it don't occur to us that
White had very many slgners, and
of those whom he did get a large
per cent did not sign with any in
tention of voting for him. Any
body can get a petition to run for
office.
This writer does not claim any
thing for White, but says that he
did nothing wrong while in the
legislature and says further that a
representative in Whites time was
a political nullity." 1t was not a
political nullity' the four years
that L. A.. Simpson was in the
legislature. He had influence and
commanded respect in the house,
and we want a man of his ability
in the senate.
What could White do in the
senate? Ask yourself this ques
ton and think it over.

A "POLlTICAL NULLlJY."

We are told by "Junius," in the
Recorder, that Mr.. Simpsons
nomination was not unanimous.
But we fail to see how it could
have been more nearly unanimous.
Aft White lined up his forces, at
the instigation of a shrewd out
slider, and was defeated at the
Dickinson primary. White was
not particular either who voted.
But after the votes were counted
he told the people that it was the
first time he had ever worked
against Simpson and he had the
appearance of feeling mean over
what he had done.
The republicans sent some of
thebest men in the county to the
Richardton convention. These
delegates, about forty, wereu nani-
nous in asking Mr.. Simpson to
name the legislative delegates for
this county. Representative men
were named, and they met with
representative men from Billings
and Mercer county, in Dickinson,
as per call, and we're unanimous
in naming L. A. Simpson and w.
A. Mcclure for the senate and
house respectively.
Then this anonymous Recorder
writer says that the democratic
convention did not endorse Mr..
Simpson, deciding to endorse
the independent candidate when
he should appear" This state
ment implies that they, the demo-
cratic delegates, would support
any one against Mr.. Simpson, re-
CARELESS of qualification. We
doubt if this could have been
tr%uthfully said of an individual
delegate, and as regards a major
ity of them we know the state
ment is absolutely false.
Then this anonymous writer
speaks of "the great number of
signers to Whites petition" etc.,
but carefully guards against the
number. which is 200. In a dis
trict having upwards of 1000

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only n way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed condi-
ton of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inAamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed tor
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition mucous surfaces.
