North Dakota Grocers.

GRAND FORKS, n. D., Feb. 16.-
The largest convention ever held by
the Retail Grocers and General Mer-
chants association of North Dakota
opened in Grand Forks today, the oc-
casion being the annual meeting of
the association. Prominent merchants
fhom all over the state were present
at ten o'clock this morning when the
convention was called to order by the
president of the association, B. T..
Kraebel. Mayor Dinnie of Grand Forks
welcomed the visitors and the re-
mainder of the session was taken up
with the appointment of the usual
committees and other business of
routine character. The programme OF
the afternoon session included papers

for the reason that he thinks that

senatorial election. However, he may
get badly fooled.
The railroads have not the greatest
confidence in the world in his fidelity
to their cause and the people have
learned that he is an oppOrtunlSt, a

winning side. 1t would not be surpris-

HANNA'S BETTER NATURE.

Mark Hanna stood immea surably
higher in the estimation of the Aneri-
can people al the time of his death
on February 18th. 1904, than he did al
the time of his first notable appear
ance in public life in the presidential
campaign of 1896 as the chairman OF
the republican national copmittee and
dispenser Of a ten million dollar party
promotion fund. Then he was pictured
by opposition aperS AS cruel monster
sf most hideous nien whose sole meas
ure of men and policies was the dol
lar mark. While he continued to be
The prime favorite of the great multi

nature Was by no means wholly Sordit

heart a strong Vein of love and SYM

this was only typical of his fidelity to

labor Hanna was kind and consider

service he never had strike on his

had won distinction by his apparently
disinterested services as Il mediator

CHANCE FOR AN TON
AT LEAST.

By cutting out of the urgent detici-
ency bill the item carrying their
double mileage the members of the
house have with singular unanimity
i've recess theory. They have de-
clared that there was not even a
psychological hiatus between the eX-
pira ton of the administrations use
less special session and the assem-
bling of the regular session at noon,
December Z. 1t goes without saying
that if legislation based upon the pres
ident's convenient but prepOsterouS
assumption that there was an actual
lapse of time between 1850 "a. m. and
II meridian on the same day had been
enacted. the courts would have de-
clared such enactment void.
But in this imaginary infintesmal
time President Roosevelt claims that
he had the constitutional power and
the physical ability to sign various
commissions to office which invest
them with the privileges and immuni-
ties of recess appointments. The Off
Gals so appointed are now performing
their duties and drawing cOmpensa-
ton therefor. Senator Tillman has in
troduced d resolution calling upon the
power to inform the senate
of the number and character of these
warrant they We're made. Senator
Lodge and other cuckoo senators have
tried to convince the country that
there was a recess, and that there
fore Mr.. Roosevelt was clearly within
his constitutional rights when he made
the appointments. But the country is
not convinced. The Tillman resolution
affords the administration senators a
better opportunity to prove this in
tangible proposition than was afforded
by the mere academic question at first
involved.
Should the information sought by
the South Carolinian be freely and
fully given the senate can say whether
or not presidential faVOriteS are to be
fOSted upon the army ana other de-
partments of the government in this
obsurd manner after the senate either
has failed or refused to confirm their
original appointments. This is the
question of importance now involved
and it is one uron which the senate
ought to make Il clear ana dlSnlhed
assertion of its prerogative.

cation into the post Office department
frauds. In his report to the president
made about the opening of the extra
session of congress Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Bristow declared
that more searching inquiry might
be necessary for the reason that a
senator, some representatives in con-
gress and others We're inculpated. The
distinguished LAWYERS, Messrs. Bona
parte and Conard, appointed to ex-
anime the evidence gathered by Bris-
tow. said that a congressional investi-
CATION is essential to the vindication
Of justice. Yet there has been no
further investigation and the incident
is closed.
Why have the republicans of the
senate, especially such close friends
Of the president as Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, prevented more
searching investigation of the frauds
in question? We can understand why
Senator. Burton of Kansas. was OPP
posed to reopening of the subject.
He was inculpated in the frauds and
hoped to escape the just penalty of
his crimes. But Senator Lodge could
hardly have been influenced by the
sense of self preservation.
1t is hardly probable that Senator
Spooner of Wisconsin and Senator AL
lison of Iowa are culpable and afraid
of exposure. They are above suspi-
cion. They have never soiled their
hands by the touch of brides.
The fact is. however. that they
understand that many of the high
republican officials are concerned in
the frauds 1t is already known that
the trace Of corruption was followed
into the private office of the post
master general and his private secre-
tary was tainted. If this is not true
let them permit the investigation to
proceed If there is no danger nobody
will be hurt.

gives color to the suspicion that the
administration is endeavoring to carry
water on both shoulders in order to
make sure of another four years in the
White House.
Now that Hanna is dead Wall street
is left without hope Of defeating the
nomination of Roosevelt and no doubt
it will be willing to make the best
terms possible with him for the pro-
lection of trusts. mergers and all other
mOnopuleS. AS the republican party
is responsible for the existence OF
these monStrOSitieS in the social econ

anomalous for republican president
to oppose his party's pets. Roosevelt

SORROW FOR HANNA
CONTINUED from Page One.)

VAS intense silence when FORAKER
arose. His statement was very brief
and formal owing to the speakers emo
ton. He said Hanna is mourned by
all his countrymen. BY his political
associates not only because he was
great organizer and leader who re-
peatedly led the victory. but more es-
pecially because he held their affection
lite. BY his political opponents be-
cause they are generous enough to ex-
press sorrow when. brave man falls
and because they recognized in him
bold and fearless foeman who COM
1nanded their respect and excited their
admira ton. Foraker then offered res
olutions expressing senatorial sorrow
and respect and providing for the APP
pointment of committees to arrange
and attend the funeral and that the ex-
penses be paid from the contingent
fund, also providing for an invitation
to the house to participate and for the
extension of. invitations to the presi-
dent. cabinet, diplomats and army and
navy.
Forakers address was preceded by
an eloquent prayer by Chaplain Ed
ward Everett Hale, who referred to
Hanna's death.
A committee of 26 was appointed to
arrange for the funeral service in the
senate chamber and to extend invita-
lions to the president, the cabinet, the
judiciary, the diplomatic corps and
the house Of representatives. The
committee was appointed as follows:
Foraker Allison, Aldrich, Hale. Platt.
Conn, Spooner, Perkins, Wetmore,
Hansbrough, Warren, Fairbanks, De-
pew, Kean, Scott, Beveridge, Alger,
Kittridge, Frye. German, Cockrell. Tel
Ter, Bacon, Martin. Blackburn and NC

a mark of respect.
The house was also filled when 1t
opened this morning. Chaplain Cou-

of Hanna. Grosvenor of Ohio. offer
ed a resolution of sorrow on Hanna's
death and acceptance of the senate in
