The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1905-09-08
WILLOW CITY

BY our special correspondent
The sound of the threshing rig is
again heard in the land.
School opened here on Monday with
Mr.. Wells Smith as principal and
Miss Emma Carlson in the primary
department, Miss Peterson and Miss
Lee having charge of the other rooms.
Judge Marshall made a business
trip to Towner on Tuesday.
Miss Beulah Laberge returned from
her visit with relatives in New York
and Montreal the first of the week.
Mrs. J. N Peat visited with friends
in Bottineau from Sunday till Tues
day.
Mrs. Nettie Hager accompanied her
daughter, Miss Anna. to Jamestown
on Monday. where Miss Anna will
attend the sisters school for another
year.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Lizvtte returned
from their summer vacation to New
England and Canada on Tuesday. Fred
says they spent a delightful summer
but is glad to get back to North Da-
kota and bustling Willow City.
Lewis 81. Olson, one Of our hust-
ling merchants left for the State Fair
at Minneapolis, Mimi, where he will
meet Mrs. Olson and take in the
sights of Minnesota s annual show.
We are sorry to report that ]. H.
Cook, our popular elevator man. had
the misfortune to break his leg while
attending the state fair at Grand
Forks. It seems that the elevator
door of one Of the popular resorts
where Mr.. Cook was staying was left
open and he stepped into the shaft with
the results noted above. His friends
wish him q speedy recovery.
Elk Governor Shortridge, of Devils
Lake, has been visiting s. B. Mahaney
this week and doing some hunting.
DR.. Laberge, r. w. Lazier, J. NJ.
Watson and Angus Critics accompanied
him on several hunting trips. The
Gov. is getting along well in years
but enjoys day 8 sport as we'll as the
younger men.
Walter Master and family spent
one day fishing on the Mouse river
this week but as Walt did not present
any Of his friends with any Of the
beauties he secured, We cannot say
what luck he had.

THE COMMONER
Says there is no Danger About q
Third Term.

Some of the democrats are expires.
sing fear that the president may be
persuaded to run for a third term.
There is no need for alarm. He has
said that he will not under any cir:
cumstances be candidate to succeed
himself and there is no reason to be.
lieve that he has changed or will
change his mind on this subject. He
has declared that he regards this as his
second term and his own construction
has been accepted. Having served
nearly three and half years of Mr..
McKinley's second term he could
hardly justify any other construction.
Without questioning the good faith
of the president it may be added that
he would have great deal of assis-
tance in avoiding another term if as
sistance were necessary. The republi-
can party is divided as the democratic
party was in 1895 and he can not pass
through the next three years without
alternating one element of the party.
He is now counted among the reform
ers. If he lives up to the promises he
has made the corporations would fight
his denomination, if he .falters he will
lose the popularity upon which another
nomination is predicted.
Neither is it sure that he would be
a strong candidate if nominated. His
large majority in 1904 was not so
much personal or party victory as a
democratic defeat. He received only
about one hundred and fifty thousand
more votes than the normal republican
strength while Judge. Parker received
about million and a half less than
the normal democratic vote. II this
was the president s experience when he
had on his side the feeling that he
was entitled to an endorsement what
would be his experience if he had to
carry the odium of third term? The
sentiment against third term was so
strong that Grant had to bow to it.
Could Roosevelt overcome it9 The
names of Washington and jefferson
are still potent and they refused to
consider a third time. Would the
people admire an ambition which
would disregard their example?
No, Mr.. Roosevelt does not want a
third term and il he did want it he
would find the anti third term senti-
ment an insuperable obstacle.
Let him serve the people with an
eye single to their welfare and the
gratitude Of his countrymen will be
q richer reward than q dozen terms
could bestow. Commoner.

Westhope parties Married here on
Tuesday by Rev. Mitchell.

Hillsboro Banner: "Fools rush in
where angels fear to tread,' or words
to that effect. And we expect soon
to hear Of fool printer making rush

been practically starved out of that
place.

II RIBBONS
Captured at State Fair by David
Clark last week.

Commissioner David Clark has re-
turned from Grand Forks where he
exhibited sixteen head of cattle at the
state fair. The cattle shown py him
were all bred and raised here except
his two herd bulls. He captured
seventeen ribbons, two 6rsts, FIVE se-
conds, seven thirds and three fourths
and this against strong competition.
In bull calves Mr.. Clark took second
and third. He was the only exhibitor
from this end of the state west of Lari-
more. The premiums offered were
small for state fair but Mr.. Clark
says he captured $50 which about COW
cred expenses. We congratulate him
on his good success and on the enter
prise which he has shown.

Did Not Know
When Sunday Came
Civilization Had Not Impressed
Itself Upon Pinos Altos at
The Time Bell Lived There
With Ella Coldner

With bitter fighting ver each bit
OF evidence, the n OF ELLA II. Gold
ner against susan w. Bell for the
5000, 900 estate OF Nathaniel Bell, who
died here in 1899, was continued yes
terday In Judge Wilbur's court. says
the Los Angeles Examiner.
There We're placed in evidence four
dispositions showing that in Silver
City, n. NJ, in 1915 Nathaniel Bell
recognized Librada Valencia BELL as
his wife. and the present Ella Bell
Goldner of Nueya Casa Grande. Chi.
huahua, as his daughter. Incidentally
the affidavits brought to light n
graphic story of the old days in New
Mexico, when Indians, gamblers, pros.
pectors and women were mixed In q
heterogeneous mass. with practically
no law to dictate the proper mode
of living.
A. II. Thompson, now of Deming. \.
NJ, deposed that he lived in Silver
City in the fall of 1874 and the spring
OF 1875, across the little street where
Bell made his home.
He said Bell was prospecting near
Pinos Altos, N. NJ, and came home
every week to his wife and child.
"You say he came down to pinoS
Altos every week."
81 don't remember exactly what
times he did come. Then there was
no church In Silver City and we didn't
know whether It was the Sabbath day
or not"
Thompson also told how he first
met Bell and Librada Valencia Bell
at Las Cruces at a feast, the last one
of the old days in NoweMexico. when
bull fights and all kinds of games and
rioting were the rule. He declared
that Al George drove Cog Davis,
Bell and his wife and several others
over from Silver City. He admitted
that Cog" Davis was a notorious
gambler and had but recently been ac-
quilted Of a charge Of murder. 1t Is
expected that Davis and his career
will take a prominent part In the tes-
timony later on.
There were several discrepancies in
the dates fixed by Thompson. Bur
Judge James Corbin, in another sworn
deposition read before the court, de-
clared that he had seen Bell with the
present Mrs. Goldner, then a babe, in
his arms, and ex-senator Harvey NJ.
Mitchell and George Parker both
swore that Bell had openly recognized
the child as his own,
