Our party having long earnestly ad-
vocated the construction of inter

we favor the early completion of the

But while making this declaration
and accepting the results as an &C
complished and irreyersible fact, we
cannot too forcibiy express our dis
approval of the methods by which,
in disregard of the usages and obliga-
tons of international law and treaty
obligations, the canal route has been
acquired, or too solemnly record our
hope that this precedent of defiant
diplomacy may never be used against
us to our humiliation and injury.
We recognize that the gigantic
trusts and combinations designed to
enable capital to secure more than its
just share of the joint product of cap
ital and labor, and which have been
fostered and promoted under repub-
lican rule are a menace to beneficial
competition and an obstacle to per.
manent business prosperity.
We demand the vigorous and impair

made to prevent and control such
trusts and combinations, and we favor
such further legislation in restrain
thereof as experience shows TO be
necessary.

Il sLAReE rpleTRIcT.

az TAKE IN Z Large ferritofy.s' =" ~
Washington, March 1S.-Thes house /
has passed the bill creating an addi-
lion lion land district in North D1R0t q
the lAnd ofacs 10 be located sIl9ie-ll
frson. RE measure has CONS is the
senate and will probably pass that
body early: next week.
The purport, Of the bin Is to divide
what is known as the Bismarck land
district into two land districts. The
western portion Of the Bismarck dis
trict will constitute the Dickinson dis
trict while the eastern portion will
constitute as heretofore the Bismarck
land district. 4
Under the proposed division the
Dickinson land district will have about
100000 acres of vacant land, and
the Bismarck district will have about
100000 acres Of land opened for set
tlement. The object of the measure
is to facilitate and expediate the work
which has lately piled up in the old
Bismarck district. Assistant Commits
doner Fimple in a report to congress
showed that the total receipts from
the Bismarck Office were $4,000 for
1900, for the following year $54,253,
for 1902, $151,7s0 and for last year
$175,242. The area OF the Bismarck
land district during these years con.
sisted Of 1885, 500 acres, and it is
the opinion OF Commissioner Fimple
that to divide this enormous acreage
into two, would insure proper atten-
ttoh>and convenience to new. settlers.
To illustrate the volume of business
transacted by the Bismarck land dis
trct Commissioner Fimple states that
nearly 1900 entries were made, dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 30, 1903.
In conclusion he save that from that
there is q large amount of vacant and
unappropriated land In the Bismarck
district and as the district is a very
large one, especially from the east to
west, and Bismarck is located in the
western part Of the district, he saw
no objection to the creation Of new
land district as is provided for in this
bill and that therefore be recommend
the passage of the same. The bill pro-
vides as follows: .s~.. ~ ..t
That dM that portion of North Dako-
Ia lying south of the twelfth stand
ard parallel and west of the range
line between ranges ninety and ninety.
one west Of the principal meridian be,
and the same is hereby created into

as the Dickinson district, and the land
office for said district shall be located
at the town Of Dickinson until such
time as the president may, in his dis
erection. remove the site Of said land
office from said town. s.@2&A yls#H :.

THEFT OF COPE
Prisoner Accused of the Crime Ends
His Life in His Cell.

Ascoli, Italy, August 3O.-The
photographers, Rockingham, who was
arrested on August II in connection
with the theft from the Cathedral of
Ascoli of riceless cope, which was
afterward bought by j. Pierpont Nor
gan, of New York, committed suicide
today by hanging himself to bar In
his cell. He had refused nourishment
for several days.
The cope, which was very ancient
~and considered priceless. was stolen
from the cathedral III 1892. It myste-
riously disappeared while repairs
were being made to the cathedral, and
though the government took measures
for its recovery, the efforts were un-
successful.
A London dispatch of July 10 last
announced that Mr.. Morgan had loan
ed the cope to the South Kensington
Musuem, where it was on exhibition.
Tt is described as beautifully en-
broidered piece of work done in
France in the thirteenth century and
presented to the cathedral of Ascoli
by Nicholas ".

Lowell was not great genius IN
school, many features of which he
disliked, and during his last days at
Harvard was placed under discipline,
not being permitted to be present at
graduation time.
After returning to Harvard as one
of its foremost instructors he still
possessed many peculiarities with re-
gard to his work, and yet there was
something about him that made him
popular and drew all to him.
Some time was spent by the speaker
in considering his writings. lie re-

ward Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Bar
rett Browning as being remarkable

sci Lowell were regarded as the most
brilliant of ALL His letters show
that he loved the common people, and
respectfully people who Were what they
pretended to be.
His Americanism manifested itself
in his abhorrence for self advertise
ment and believed the productions of
an author should be based upon their
merits alone. 1t was also shown by
the defense he put up against undue
foreign criticism of his native land.
Here the attacks made by Dickens up
on our manners and customs when he
visited our country in 1912 also those
of Mathew Arnold, were referred to
by the speaker.
Mr.. Vincent does not regard Low
ell as the greatest artist, but he does
consider him the most brilliant bard.
and he thinks we should do homage
by reading the writings of a man
"who was great poet and scholar

the school of refinement and cul-
ture.'
