ly paid. Men now working on the
docks are being forced to work else
where because Japanese are being
employed much cheaper, and there
fore, it is our duty to protect our
fellows
Harris quoted Section 800 of the
Civil Code and asked what effect it
will have upon the joint resolution.
Kumalae said that it will compel
the Road Boards to pay at the rate
of Sl.50 per day, but it will not
conflict with the law as it now
stands.
Keliinoi raised a point OF order
that the joint resolution will have
the force OF law and is in direct
conflict with the purpose for which
this extra session was called. Ku
malae held that it has bearing
upon appropriations and is the
same as any other item OF appro-
priation.
The Speaker said the resolution
was not properly drawn. Ii adj
vanced and sent to the Senate, it
will be ruled out of order. He
therefore sustained the point OF or
der. Psele appealed on the ruling
of the Chair and the Chair sus-
tanned.
Bill 9 was then taken up on third
reading, A question was asked by
Fernandez whether this land OF the
Coney Estate on Tantalus was un-
der lease at the time the road was
opened. Other questions came on
fiom others, and Superintendent
Cooper just then came in with the
Clerk, who had been sent for by the
Speaker. Various questions were
then asked OF him by Andrade, Har-
RIG, Greenwich, Kumalae and Paele
and much Information was glea ued
from his answers. AS soon as Su.
periutendent Cooper left, promis-
ing to send in certain documents
Pasle moved to pass the bill or
third reading and carried by vote
OF % ayes and 4 noes.
Bill 10 was then taken up or
third reading, and after being reat
through, recess was taken at ll:5
o'clock.

cept by beng convinced of the guilt of
the prisoner. On the other hand, the
chances of change of those who believe
the accused guilty are much stronger. as
ganerally there is at least some doubt,
and the consequences of the change are
not SO great. No. man who believes the
accused innocent would be willing to let
him go to prison.for lite or to suffer the
death penalty. while the man who thinks
him guilty is willing for the sake Of an
agreement or possible doubt to let the
prisoner go. What will be the next chap
ter in this famous case is yet to be seen,
but it is quite probable that every delay
in this case means something in favor OF
Barry's final release.

what becomes of the correspondents
statement of Roosevelt's weakness, i
New York is absolutely necessary to
democratic success and that it is not nee
essary to republican success.
This correspondent seems to think that
Hanna is the man to win and that he is
likely to be nominated in the republican
convention. Well, if organized capital
and some disgruntled politicians are nee
essary to the election OF Mr.. Roosevelt,
then on the other haad the ''people'
who cast the votes are as necessary tc
Mr.. Hauna's success, and it would be
hard to make the people change off tc
Hanna, without some better reasons
showing up than those advanced by the
Herald's democratic Washington cores
pondent.

he can spit spite at this paper. What he
may say about its editors, personally, cuts
no figure with us and he is welcome to
make as much fun, or worse, of us, as he
chooses. but the following are more than
personal.
In the last issue of his paper he says
that "Wardwell arrived at the conclusion
that the G. N. would put on mixed train

the same kind Of service they have On the
Walhalla branch, which is about what
they have. Why this paper should wish
harm or disadvantage to any of the towns
along the Neche branch in this county is
past reason. The transfer of trains to
the st. Vincent branch is of no value to
tkis city, and there is danger of it being
of actual damage before we are through
with it.
The editor of the Timepiece was so
wrathy about the trains that he brought

that issue. He says: "While Neche may
be on branch line its bank is doing
more business than any other two similar
institutions in the county, with the excep-
ton of Cavalier, which are so fortunate as
not to be located on the Neche branch. {"
This rather nugatory sentence we take to
mean that the Neche bank does more

gether, situated in Walhalla, Crystal, ,Dray-
ton, Bowesmont, Pembina. AS the state
ments of all these banks are published in
the current issues of the local papers the
figures which refute this nonsensical state
ment are available to anyone who chooses
to look them up. As we believe every
banker in the county, including the Off
GERS of the Neche bank, would deprecate
the discussion and comparison OF the
statements i'll this way, in the press, we
leave the matter there. We know that a
bank that stands as high as does the Ne
che bank, and which can send out as fine
a statement of its affairs as that of the
present, neither needs nor cares to be siz-
ed up by its fool friends as being larger
or smaller than some other .bank. Its
standing does not depend on that of 9TH
er banks.

A DEMOCRATIC CORRESPONDENT.

The Grand Forks Herald hiss estab.
lished special correspondence depart
ment in Washington, which. as a news
bureau, is giving excellent service, but
when it comes to running off lot Of
democratic editorial about the unavaila-
bility Of President Roosevelt as the next
presidential nominee OF the republican
party, it is getting pretty badly out OF
place. The correspondent in brief says
that President Roosevelt cannot be elect
ed because not single leader Of the re-
publican party is in favor Of his renomi-
nation, that organized capital is against
him, but admits that the people are for
him. but seems to insinuate that it is be-
cause the people don't know any better.
II, however, the correspondent is as
far off in the former statements as in some
Others that he makes, his views are not
Of much importance. For instance, he
goes on to say, that the political situation
IS unique and peculiar" nothing
similar has been known in recent years.
He straightway stultifes his historical
assertions BY referring to the Blaine de.
feat and also says in exact terms .'the sit
uation now IS similar to that Of the cam
paign Of 1884 when Cleveland was first
elected president" Again he says that
never before have the democrats been
willing to make such q CONCESSION to the
delegates Of any one state, 4 which fol-
lows his assertion that the democrats
have agreed to let New York name the
democratic candidate consequent upon
the further fact that they have agreed
