In most parts of the country the au-
tomobile is regarded as a plaything Of
the rich. In North Dakota it is a ne
cessity for the business nan and even
the farmer. The commercial traveller
uses it in his trips from town to town
over the smooth prairie roads of the
state: the real estate man has machine
or two to take his landseekers to see
the best soil on earth: the banker and
business man find the auto a necessity
to look after their real estate interests
and the farmer finds it profitable to
have a bubble" in order to get a.
round faster than he otherwise could.
The roads of the state are ideal for
these improved machines, and there is
pleasure and health in their use here,
as we'll as economy. 1t is evident that
the automobile is here to stay, and
nothing but the best makes and latest
patterns satisfy the purchasers.
The sale of autos has been very
large in North Dakota the past season
and the prospects are that the number
will be greatly increased the coming
year. There are towns of l, 500 people
in this state where twenty, thirty and
even fifty automobiles are owned, and
and the men who have them are enthus'
iastic over the advantages possessed
by this means of travel. The auto
has evidently come to stay in NORTH
Dakota. Fargo Fargo.

t The Mountain Messenger of Downie-
vile, Cal, has the following about the
death of former Honolulan
News was received here last Tues
day that William It. Luther, a former
resident OF Downieville. had died the
day previous at the Masonic Home, at
Decoto, Alameda County. where he
had been an inmate for the past few
years
well known and prominent citizen of
Sierra County. and held the Office
of County Assessor for a number
of terms. He also conducted the
st. Charles Hotel for a short time.
About ten years ago he and his wife
and son left this place and have re-
sided at various places since, namely
Oregon. Honolulu and San Francisco.
On account of old age and declining
health he was compelled to enter the
an honored member of Harmony
Lodge, F. & A. NJ, of Sierra City.
Mr.. Luther was an old pioneer of
California. having arrived in this
State in 1S49, and had been a resi-
y
years. During his residence in Dow
melville he was one of it's most prom
inent citizens, and held the esteem
and respect of all who knew him, and
the news OF his death will be received
with sincere regret by his many
friends. To mourn his loss he leaves
a wife and son, Willie. who are now
residing in San Francisco. He was a
OF Of SIa
years. months and 10 days at the
time of his death.
We copy the following biographical
sketch Of Mr.. Luther from the history
of Sierra County:
William t. Luther was born in
Swanzey. Rhode Island, Jan. 2, 1925.
In 1913 he began work at pottery
making in Pawtucket. Rhode Island.
which he followed for six years. In
January, 1S49. he left for Califor-
MIA in the ship Hopewell, and arrived
in San Francisco in August. Soon
after he went to Jacksonville, Tuol-
umne County where he mined a short
time; then he returned to San Fran
cisco, and, in partnership with Cap
tain Sam Vincent & Son bought a
schooner and carried freight to Stock
ton. Freight then brought sixty dol
lars per ton and for lumber seventy
five dollars per M. In the summer of
1856 Mr.. Luther mined on Slate and
Nelson creeks and Feather river. In
the fall he settled at Marysville, and
ran a pack train from that place to
the mountains until the year 1859.
when he came to Sierra County and
bought an interest in the Gold Valley
quartz mine. In 1861 he established
a packing and forwarding business at
Downievilie. Mr.. Luther was elected
county assessor in 1879 which office
he held until 1890. He was married
in 1872 to Miss L. L. Diffendoffer of
Iowa. Their union was blessed with
one son, Willie.

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to tho majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like vast. cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves it's
reputation is conceded. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such a record of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
LIES brighter side. Professor
Reddy, of Canada, says: "I have
much pleasure in stating that /
have used it in cases of debility
and found it to be a very valu-
able remedy as well as pleasing
to take. sYou cannot beadisap,

ADMITTED
Fighting Out Confession
Issue i'm Johnson
Case.

God help me! / murdered Simeon
Wharton!"
Falling on his knees in jail at Waia-
lua before Deputy Sheriff Oscar Cox,
according to the testimony given by
that official in the Johnson murder
case Yesterday. Johnson said that to
the officer.
At this point Cox was stopped by
Attorney Harrison for the defense,
who objected because he said that it
was incumbent upon the prosecution.
before offering this confession in evil
dence, to show where Johnson had
been and what influences had been at
work on him from the time when Cox
had seen him on Wednesday night
and the Friday morning when he was
reported to have said that to Cox. In
other words. Attorney Harrison claim
ed that the prosecution, in present.
ing confession, had to show that it
had not been obtained under duress.
Which shows all you know about
it, said the Attorney General.
Harrison proceeded to read decisions
on the matter, when Peters again in
terrupted him. I'VE are working
under a statute here he said.
AT least the jury should be excused
while this matter is being fought out"
said Harrison.
Mr.. Prosser for the Territory agreed
to this, and as there were some signs
of heat apparent, Judge Robinson Or
dered a short recess, and the jury filed
out into the hall. After the recess the
jury was excused, while the attorneys
settled the matter of the confession.
1t was finally determined to permit the
defense to secure the attendance of
witnesses from Waialua, if any could
be found, to show that the confession
to Cox had been made under duress.
This matter will be gone into in court
this morning, and the point will be
fought out at this stage of the pro-
ceeding. Then the case will be gone
on with
The trial began yesterday morning
with the calling of r. A. Duncan,
that the stains on Johnson's clothes
found after the murder of the little
boy were blood stains. Two Japanese,
Nishimoto and Nishi Yamada, saw
Johnson on the day of the death of
little Simeon Wharton, but noticed
nothing unusual in his demeanor.
At the afternoon session, DIR. HUI
bert Wood told how the wounds in
fiicted on the little boy had caused
his death. He also gave it as his opin-
ion, on cross-examination that there
were no signs of the commission of
crime other than murder.
