The coming week Langdon will have
the honor of entertaining a hundred or
more ministerial and lay delegates who
come to ourcity to attend the six day
annual gathering of the Red River
Valley Baptist Association which holds
its sessions at the baptist church. Let
our citizens extend to these visitors their
warmest welcome and most open heart
ed hospitality.
George Thaler's farm home two miles
east of Langdon has been the scene of
much rejoicing since the arrival last
Thursday of triplets-three beautiful
little baby girls-and the proud parents
are happy in being able to report that
each one of their trio of week old babies
are thriving and have every indication
of health. The wide circle of acquaint
ance which the Thaler family has in
Langdon and vicinity makes the an
nouncement of their three-fold blessing
of more than usual interest locally and
the event of last Thursday is, as far
birth chronological records show the first
instance where triplets have been born
in a Cavalier county home. Mrs.
Thaler was attended at the time of the
birth of her three little girl babies by
DR.. Donovan, who is said to have written
President Roosevelt as to the advisa-
bility of having the Thaler girl triplets
added to the North Dakota exhibit at
St. Louis.

the jury of first degree manslaughter
with ten year sentence in the peni-

ROOSEVELT AND LYNCHlNGs.

Senator Bailey OF Texas, in his
speech opening the Democratic cam
paisn in Brooklyn Thursday night, &c
edsed President Roosevelt Of having
favored lynch law, and lie read some
/ extracts from one of the presidents
books concerning ranch life in the
west that were persuasive authority
in establishing the assertion. one Of
these extracts read as follows: 'Du-
ring the last two or three years the
stockmen have united to put down
all their dangerous characters, often
by lynch law-bands OF horse and
cattle thieves have been regularly
hunted down anl Destroyed in pitch
ed fights by parties or armed cowboys
and as consequence most of our ter
ritory is perfectly law-abiding
Again the president is quoted as in,
terjecting into the relation of a com
monplace incident this mild remark
A little over two years ago one com
mittee Of ylgilants in Montana shot or
hung nearly sixty mot, however. with
the best judgment in all cases,
Commenting on these literary ex.
cerpts from Ranch Life" Senator
Bailey said q rejoice to Know that
whatever may have been said aud
done in the southern states, which
thoughtful men cannot endorse. IL
has never happened among us that
any man with Intelligence enough 60
write a book or with character enough
10 command an election 10 an import
ant Office has ever preferred lynching
as a punishment for theft
It IS rather difflcult 10 see any NOR
81 difference between lynchiug white
cattle thieves in The west and Negro
rapists in the south In point of laB
there is none. ana the complacency
with which Mr. Roosevelt viewed the
mob spirit among western ranchmen
is certainly not very consistent with
his severe denunciation pf the same
spirit in the south But there is
whole lot OF difference between being
a free lance sportsman and cowboy ia
the west and being candidate for of
fee seeking the vu.e OF over half
million negroes The points of view
are so far apart,
