DEMOCRATIC STATE PLAT
FORM.

We, the representatives or
the democratic party of the
state of North Dakota, in con-
ventior assembled at Minot,
North Dakota, the second day
of August, A ID. 1906, do here
by promulgate the following
declaration of principles;
1t is the duty of every citizen
to obey the laws, and not only
to obey them but to exert his
influence to prevent others
from violating them. There
fore, we are in favor of the
strict enforcement of every law
in our statutes, and we con-
demn the republican party for
its failure to redeem it's plat
form pledges.
We demand that all property,
both individual and corporate,
be taxed on an equal basis. 1t
is no injustice to require that
corporate property belonging
to railway, telegraph, tele-
phone, express and sleeping
car companies shall pay the
same proportion of taxes as the
farmer. merchant and laborer,
and we arraign the republican
party of this state for it's die,
elimination in favor of these
corporations.
III.
We are in favor of amending
the primary election law to in.
clude the nomi, alton of all Of
ficers who are to be elected at
the ensuing general election,
including the preference for
United States senators, excep:
candidates for judicial and
school Offices. whose names

Brother Andrews of the Lid
gerwood Broadaxe, has many
times given US his views on
the prohibition law and has
vividly described how it is
openly violated in Lidgerwood,
and he seems to be at a loss to
know why conditions should be
as they are.
Charles 8. Wolfe and U. v.
Robbins were elected two years
ago to clean up the blind pigs
and they promised to do so. On
assuming the duties of their re-
spective Offices they started out
with a vengeance on some of
the piggers who opposed their
election, and succeeded in get
ting plenty of evidence to con-
vict that class and put them
out of business to stay. But,
Brother Andrews, the condi-
tions at Lidgerwood are differ
ent. The other class of sight
less porkers infested your town
the ones who aided and sup
ported the states attorney and
sheriff in their election in 1904
live there. Brother Andrews
allow US to throw a little light
on the situation and things
will look different. You have
in your town one Hank Burke,
who is the uncrowned king of
the blind. piggers of Lidger-
wood and Richland county;
who was the political manager
and financial backer of u. v.
Robbins in 1904, and when Mr..
Robbins assumed the duties OF
his Office he was heavily in
debted to Hank Burke, and he
is paying his debts at 30 much
per month by staying at home,
and consequently Hank Burke

We are in favor Of co-operat-
ing with the Wisconsin legisla-
ton in establishing an equit-
able grain grading and inspec-
tion law in that state and we
respectfully request the state
of Minnesota to amend her

prohibited from shipping out
more grain Of given grade
than is taken in.

We are in favor of the minor.
ity party of the two leading pn-
litical parties of this state hav-
ing representation on all state
boards.
VIII.
We recognize the authority
vested in the governor of this

allowed by law, therefore we
believe that he should exercise
the prerogative belonging to his
office and not be dictated to or
have appointments made for
him.
TX:
We are in favor of the enact
tnent of an effective state anti
pass law. prohibiting the grant
ing of free transportation to
anyone except actual railroad

We condemn the republican
party for it's enactment of an
extravagant and unreasonable
capitol commission bill and fer
the illegal and unbusinesslike
manner in which it was at.
tempted to use state funds in
connection Herewith.
XI.
We are in favor of strict
economy in public affairs. Re-
trenchment should be inaugur-
ated. particularly in legislative
actions.
We believe that no public Of
ficer should draw the salary of
his office when the duties there
of are performed by proxy.
XIII.
We demand the repeal of the
Streeter libel law.
XIV.
The political affairs of the
state of North Dakota are con-
trolled by the railroads. We
call upon the citizens of the
state to assist US in relieving
the state from such domination.
XIV. .-..~
We endorse the democratic
principles as laid down in our
national platform.
XVI.
We are in favor of electing
United States senators by

| Owing to the gigantic growth

building material, be placed on
the free list.

We are in favor of national
grain grading and inspection
law.

The people of the United

Ninth Grade To BE
Added This Term
A Lecture Course Also Being Ar
ranged for Benefit OF Students
and Parents---Fine Corps Of In
structOrs Secured.

AS it is nearing the time when
the public school will again open
here we give a small outline of
what will occur aside from the
usual routine the coming term.
School will open on Monday,
Setember 3rd, with Prof. A. A.
Alvord as principal, Mrs. Edith
Craig, intermediate, and Miss
Minnie Rawson, primary, in
structors.
The 9th grade will also be add
ed to the school this year and
will take up the following course
of studies:
FIRST SEMESTER. Algebra,
Ancient History, Physical Cult
ure, Rhetoric and Literature.
SECOND SEMESTER. Algebra,
Ancient History, Advanced
Physiology, Rhetoric and Literat-
ure.
A lecture course has also been
arranged to accompany this
grade and is expected to be Of
material advantage in stimu-
lating the interest of both the
students and their parents.
Lectures will be delivered on the
last Friday Of each month from
3 to $3.50 o'clock and a number of
prominent men of the county
have been secured to lecture on
the various subjects chosen.
This feature will doubtless
prove a very good one and with
the corps of teachers chosen and
the addition of the new grade
and lecture course our public
school should be able to make a
record the coming term of which
any town our size might well be
proud. Now if the parents will
but lend their earnest coopera-
tion there is no reason why the
school should not make an excel
lent showing.

May Come to Cottonwood.

]. F. Edwards, the pioneer
merchant of this place, Saturday
concluded a deal for the sale of
his store property to E. H. Hill
ton, who has occupied a part of
the same building with a line of
drugs and furnishings. The
consideration was 1900. Mr..

ness man to settle here nine
years ago and sold the first goods
ever disposed Of in the town.
Mr.. Hilton arrived here sever
al months ago from Priest River.
He will enlarge the business he
is already carrying.
Mr.. Edwards stated tonight
that he would leave tomorrow
for Westlake and Cottonwood to
investigate business conditions
in those places. He will move
his stock of goods to whichever
place he selects as his future
home. -Culdesac News.

Will Estimate Cost
OF Water System
Fred Erskine, of GrangevilIe, will
Figure Cost of Both Systems
and City can then Select the
One it can Best Handle.

A member of the city council
informs us that Fred Erskine, of
Grangeville, has been employed
to estimate the probable cost of
a water system here and is ex-
pected over early next week to
take up the work. He will at
first map out system of mains
to furnish all parts Of the city
with a plentiful water supply
and after estimating the cost of
installing the system in the city
will then estimate the probable
cost of drilling for water and
putting in a pumping system and
also of leading the water from
springs on the mountain west of
town. Whichever of the two
systems can then be reached best
by the town will be chosen and
steps will then be taken at once
to vote bonds for the installation
of the system.
All agree that gravity system
from the mountain would provide
much the best water for house
use, give the best fire protection
and be cheapest in the long run
but the initial cost of installing
such a system may be far great
er than the city at present can
reach. Should the bonding of
the town be delayed until after
the first of the year it is doubt
full if the town could bond for
more than SIS, 900 and it is be-
lieved this sum will not more
than install the cheaper system
of the two, consequently if the
gravity system came very much
higher it would be impossible to
touch it unless deficiency bonds
were issued or else a stock COM
pany organized to supply the
deficiency, as was done at Troy.
If it were simply a matter of
choice all would ask for the
gravity system but under present
conditions most people will be
satisfied with any kind of sys-
tenn SO long as it furnishes an
adequate supply of water for fire
protection and general consump-
tion.

Another fine rain visited the

the rains this week seem to have
