Sharp County record., 1903-02-06

We notice in the Hardy
Herald that the Socialists were to
have a meeting at the Highland
school house yesterday for the
purpose of organizing socialistic
club.
The Herald says Hardy will
have a saloon "to the delight of
those who favor the licensed
saloon and to the disgust of those
who oppose it." Twas ever
thus.
The Record keeps on hand
a full supply Of mortgages,
deeds, title bonds, deeds Of trust
and Justices blanks. When in
need of these things bring or send
us your order.
"A card from John A. Was
son, a former citizen of Scott
township who went to Chisholm,
Texas, year ago, says: "Please
stop my Record at Chisholm, as |
am on the travel. Will write you
when l am settled again. 1t
may be possible that John has
turned his face toward Sharp
county again.

Mercer May Have Periehed.

Arthur Pearson found a bottle
along the banks of the Missouri
near his ranch four miles south
of ChilcOt October :, containing
a letter written by c. B. Mercer;
1t was dated June p, 1901, and
stated that Mercer was then on
a drift in the Missouri and he had
been there forfourdays and could
not last much longer. He wished
the finder of the bottle to notify
Mr.. Mercer, of Marysville, Mont.
The drift was at that time TO-
Gated fourteen miles west OF Bu-
ford. Mr.. Pearson has notified
Mercer and believes the man who
wrote the letter now lies dead in
the bottom of the Missouri. 1t
will aforementioned that the water
was very high in the Missouri at
that date. The bottle was found
in a bunch of drift wood along
the banks Of the river.

Who Practices Deceit?

The Reporter stoops to say
that the Independent editor is
practicing deceit on the advertis-
ers of Minot when making state
ments regarding our circulation.
Ii Brother Wilson can prove this,
why does he not do it? There is
no need of our telling an untruth
regarding the circulation OF the
Independent. The merchants
know that our list has been grow
ing faster than that Of other To-
cal papers combined. Perhaps
the Reporter would like to ex-
plain what became of a great
many Of those $500 papers that
were printed last week. The In
dependent man in his rambles
over town saw not less than half
a dozen stacks Of them in various
Offices which will never be read.

Sen. Mark Hanna,

Senator Mark Hanna, of Ohio,
and his party spentseveral hours
in this city last Saturday but no
one knew of the fact until it was
nearly time for the willy senator's
private car to leave. The party
consisted Of Mr.. Hanna, Gov.
Brule, OF New Mexico, Lieutenant
Gov. Tyner, Of Texas, General
Jenkins, OF Kentucky and General
w. Machan, of Michigan. The
private car lay near the 500
crossing all afternoon Saturday
and that evening until after mid
night. The party walked around
the city but not a soul knew that
we had so many distinguished
guests. Shortly before it was
time for the car to leave one Of
the party invited the Minot band
down to give the Senator a little
send of. The boys headed by
c. H. Irwin, turned up and de-
lighted Mark for sometime. A
large crowd gathered expecting
to see the big Senator but owing
to the hour, he failed to showup.
Gen. Machan came out and made
a short speech. He told of his
surprise at the beauty OF the
North Dakota prairies and said
the whole party were. delighted
with our hustling little city. He
then made the hearts Of the band
boys glad when hepassed around
some choice cigars and said if
the hour were earlier, he would
invite them in to have refresh
ments. The band was presented
ten dollars by Mr.. Hanna. The
party went west for a pleasure
trip. The General stated that
the visit was not one relating to
politics at all.

Is a COrker.

In the tense language OF the
theatrical advance agent, "Old
Arkansaw" is a corker. Like the
cat, it has more than nine lives,
and like the feline in the song, it
always comes back. Jumping
with a bound into popularity, it
has maintained it's hold upon the
public with a grip that there
seems no possibility Of breaking:
It has distanced all it's rivals and
bears the proud distinction OF
being the only big, scenic pro-
duction worthy of the name be-
fore the public. A strong: COM
pact play, possessing those deli
cate touches of pathos and hu-
NOR and all the virile force and
vigor of the drama, it ought Ito
run on indefinitely. Another ex-
cellent reason may be given Tor
it's success-its owner possesses
the most elaborate andeNpenslve
stage outfit OF any company
travelling. No attempt has been
made to cheaper the attraction
by the engagement Of incompe-
tent actors. The old standard
of excellence is religiously main
tanned and the result is shown in
the continued loyalty of the sup
porters. cold Arkansaw' is a
play of many parts and will be
seen in this city Wednesday Oct.

necessary for Drs. Cotton and Dill to
ampntate it at the ankle. Owing to

it is like perpetual mission; therefore

Resolved by the delegates of the c.
o. F. convention that we earnestly
urge our brother Foresters to bring
up this important matter occasionally
Mt the meetings Of our local courts
that we further make efforts to dis.
abuse the minds of some Catholics OF
the erroneous ideas that secular papers
which incidentally have so-called Cath
Ollie items or church news do not and
can not take the place Of the real
Catholic papers. That Catholics
should further bear in mind that it is
not the prime mission Of Catholic
newspapers to give local and personal
news and long puffs about parties and
socials but their chief mission is q
higher one to instruct along religious
lines and refute the many old land also
new errors which are continually ap.
pearing under modern garb.
There are many eminent non-Catho-
lies throughout the land who deplore
the fact that children grow up in pub.
lie schools without any religious train.

absence Of religious training new
names, such as lack Of training in
duty, lack Of training in authority and
obedience, lack Of training in respect

The report of the chief ranger con-
graduates the members upon the pros.
porous condition of the order. At the
last biennial convention, held in Min
neapolis, June II, 1901, this state
prided itself on being the third largest
Jurisdiction in the entire order, with
$50 courts and 1O,662 members. But
we lost North Dakota, which formed
it's own Jurisdiction, with 81 courts
and 969 members. Notwithstanding
this loss, we now number 178 courts
and 11,192 members. The time Is not
far distant when we will be the third
largest Jurisdiction, as we cannot sus-
tain the loss of any state again, and
I look to see our state second in line.
If all the members in our state would
interest themselves personally this
could soon be accomplished.
In the past we have had very
strenuous objections to our order, but
such objections are rapidly disappear
ing. Our Catholic people are awaken.

also the antitrust conspiracy bill, but

HANNA AND ROOSEVELT.

The most interesting news in yes
terdays papers, for those who are in
terestel in national politics was Sen
ator Hanna's outspoken declaration
against an endorsement of President
Roosevelt's candidacy by the Ohio
state convention, which is shortly to
assemble. The Senator deliberately de
tends his position and, though he does
not go so far as to say SO, he evidently
desires to create the impression that
there is no emnity between President
Roosevelt and himself.
He basis his opposition entirely on
the ground OF what he calls ''propriety'
1T does not appear to me. he says.
ito be entirely proper for this conven-
ton to assume the prerogative of the
one to be chosen in 1904 and upon
which ono W rest the responsibility
of representing and expressing the
sentiments OF our state for any can
didate"
If there is, as Senator Hanna would
have Us Believe, any improperly in
the adoption by a Republican state con-
vention, called to nominate state Off
GERS, Of a resolution favorable to Pres
ident Roosevelt's candidacy, then a
large proportion of the states have
been guilty of that improperly. Many
>f oil.
ready declared in favor of nominating
President Roosevelt to succeed him
SELF Senator Hanna is, therefore, a
little late in declaring himself. He
might have saved a few of his Rep
ublican friends from being guilty of a
breach Of the proprieties.
Again, Senator Hanna says that If
he should exert his influence in favor
of the proposed Roosevelt resolution,
he might be subjected to just criti-
cism on the part of ''any other person
who might aspire to he candidate for
the Republican nomination for Presl-
dent in 1904" Isn't L little strange
that the politicians in other states
have not been so wonderfully tender
about the feelings of the ''other person
Senator Hanna is SO anxious not to
wound!
Reduced to the last analysis, Sen
ator IIanna's interview indicates that
a fight is Going to be made against
Roosevelt, provided the opposition can
center its strength on some available
man. 1t is yet to early to say what
the outcome will be- but one thing Is
certain That is. if Hanna, Quay
PIatt and other anti-ROOsGvelters &c
decide to put up fight, President
Roosevelt will get what is known d.
"a run for his money. Salt Lake
