I'm THE FIELD OF POLITICS
DUNN'S ATTACK ON
WINSTON REBOUNDS
Republican Candidate Only
Draws Attention 10 His Lum.
herman Running Mate

When Robert c. Dunn attacked Fendail
G. Winston, Democratic candidate for
lieutenant governor in a speech at Min
neapolis Wednesday night he invited
torrent of counter criticism for his own
running mate. Ray Jones, of Minneapolis,
which promises to engulf that candidate
beneath tidal wave of public knowledge
of his record
Mr.. Dunn pointed out to his audience
that Mr.. Winston is railroad contractor;
and from this basis deduced the startling
declaration that in the event of his cleo
ton he would, as lieutenant governor, APP
point committees of the senate favorably
disposed towards railroad interests.
1t is almost a crime to speak OF the
two candidate for lieutenant governor in
the same BREATH said Frank A. Day,
chairman Of the Democratic state COM
mittee, yesterday. "Mr. WinSton's pubic
and private record are above reproaeh, and
his standing in Minneapolis Is lmmeasur-
ably higher than that of the man opposed
to him. Congressman John Lind publicly
denounced Ray Jones in speech in Min
neapolis as a timber thief, and there has
been no attempt at a correction, or to
force Mr.. Lind to denial or for proof OF
his charges.
The record of the United States court
at Fergus Falls discloses the very recent
trial of the case of the United States
against the mOnWedllH l1VLlftCl Gull
pany of Frazee, of which Mr.. Jones is
the active head. In this suit, in which
the government sought to recover $1l5,-
900, the manufactured value OF TIMBER al
legged to have been Illegally taken by
Mr.. Jones' company from the White Earth
Indian reservation, the jury gave a YER
dict for the government for approximately
10000 Ten thousand dollars had iDeen
previously collected by the government,
bringing the total of the amount Mr..
Jones and his company was made TO dis
gorge to $50 900.
The operations during which the tim
Der was cut on the reservation were dur
ing 1900 and 1901, and all the merchant
able timber in the region was taken,
where only the dead and down was to be
cut under the original contract.
In reaching the decision by which
verdict of $4,000 was reached, the jury
men said they believed that Mr.. Jones
had guilty knowledge of the acts of his
subcontractors, for affidavits We're intro
duced at the trial showing that contracts
were signed by Indian and half-breed en-
ployes of the Commonwealth company
under which the logging operations were
conducted. and the Indians testified that
they did not know what they were sign
ing, and did not realize that contractors
were logging under contracts signed by
the Indians until months afterwards,
when the logs had been cut and the lum-
Der was in the mills
The case was tried last May in the
United States district court at Fergus
Falls, and attracted wide attention from
the official position Of Mr.. Jones.

CROOKSTON, Mimi. Oct. l. = The
contest between c. G. Christianson for
denomination on the Republican ticket
for register of deeds of Polk county
and J. Harry Stair, Crookston abb
stractor, for the same office, has been
decided by Judge Watts in favor of
Stair by the close margin of one vote.
Stair getting 1919 votes and Christian
son 1878. On the face of the returns
Christianson was nominated with three
votes to spare. Stair applied to the
district court to have the votes from
the Fourth ward of East Grand Forks
recounted. In sthis recount Stair got
six votes that had been thrown out by
the judges of election, who declared
the entire ballot void because in voting
for the office of state representative
three candidates had been voted for
instead of one. Christianson also got
two more votes. This gave Stair one
vote to the good. Christianson then
applied for a recount of the vote cast
in the five Crookston wards, which was
granted by Judge Watts, OF the dis
trict court, with the result that Stair
gained one and lost one, and Chris
tianson gained one and lost one.

1t seems that the post office receipts
in Durham have greatly increased
since the establishment of prohibition
in that town. Thrift. a prohibition pa
per, cites this as an evidence of the
good prohibition has done the town.
The Greensboro Record answers that
paper in the following manner:
Thrift, a prohibition paper printed
at Durham n circulated in Green's
boro, with much campaign thunder
used six months 6 in Durham. prints
in its last issue in big type this state
ment:
Under prohibition for six months
the receipts at the Durham p~ostofflce
nave been in excess of the six preced-
ing wet months to the amount of
s1,737,46."
Just why a prohibition paper should
rejoice over this astounding fact We
cannot comprehend. Admitting that
no one used postal cards. and where the
credit is established a postal card would
do, those figures how that there have
been eighty-six thousand eight hundred
and seventy-three orders for whiskey
sent out of Durham in six months.
What a terrible state of affairs!

tvolving an attack on the French and

PREPARATION, which throws an entirely
different light on he affair, d%epriving
bit of any such anti-foreign animus as
was at first attributed to it.
The minister's advices just received
from Hayti show that the incident &C.
lcurred as follows.
Before the executive mansion at
Port au Prince there is a road which
lis closed after dark to all pedestrians
land carriages On the evening OF the
ION that road. 1t was dark, the sentry
could not see the occupants of the
carriages, and could not then know
III they were foreigners or natives. The

Irection of the carriages. When, the

THAT the occupants of the carriages
were the French and German minis

They are having a parrot and mon
key time over the dispensary in Green
vile. The Reflector says:
The conductors of the illegal dispen-
sary were again before Mayor Parker
this morning under warrants for SELL

PENDANTS were bound yer to the supe>

The same paper has the following to
say about the lawiess conduct of Ger
tain ones of that town:
There is a spirit Of lawlessness In
Greanville that is not good for the com
munity and the sooner it is corrected
the better will pe h result.
It seems that under a recent election
the dispensary system was to go into

men, whose term of office expired on
the same day, in the latter part OF June
elected the ~dispenssry commissioners.
These were not satisfactory to h new
board and it elected another-set of COM
missioners. We presume the parties
indicted are the members Of the first

Charlotte went for prohibition with
a whoop. But none of the people OF
that city seemed to take any stock in
the dispensary idea. 1t seems that no
class of her population favored hat
solution of h liquor question. 1t must
be remembered that any person who
voted prohibition" could also have
voted ~"dispensary' had he chosen. Still
in a city where prohibition was carried
by nearly five hundred majority over
saloons, there were less than fifty votes
cast for d~ispensary. 1t was natural to
suppose thai the anti-saloon men would

The North Carolina delegation at ST.
Louis started a boom Tuesday for
Marshall Field, OF Chicago. for vice
president. The idea seems to have
taken well. Mr.. Field would be a good
adjunct to Parker or Cleveland. and
would add strength TO the ticket IN the
northwest. But we confess that
we want TO see John Sharp WILLIAMS
OF Mississippi in the second place There
is but one objection that We can see to
Mr.. Williams nomination as vice pres
ident and that IS that the democrats
would thereby lose his valuable servi-
ces on the floor Of the house. The dem
ocrats have not had such a leader in
the house since the death of the lament
ed John Randall of Philadelphia. He
was a warm friend of the south and
a firm supporter of its claims at a time
when the south was in need of friends
in the national congress. Mr.. Williams
is a power on the floor OF h house
of representatives n he is feared by
the republicans. No doubt, if the DEM
ocrats are TO be successful in the presi-
