the DEADLY PARALLEL,

Nothing can afford a wider contrast
than the party platforms of the demo
Gratis and republicans of North Dakota
as adopted at their respective state con.
ventions within the past month. Below
they are published side by side and we
are confident that the principles set
forth in the platform of the democratic
party have the true ring of sincerity and
lacks bombastic self gloritication in the

THERE is nothing in the platform
adopted at the democratic convention
at Minot last week that the ''standpat-
tiers" of the republican party will con
slider worth while, but the insurgents
will realize in reading it through that
the principles set forth in their cam
ipaisn are, as we have held right from
the first simon pure democratic
doctrine.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1906-08-09

In reviewing the political outlook last
Tuesdays issue of the Minneapolis Jour
nal, a paper which is both fair and reli-
able says:
"That the republican party need to
look for a man who has not only presi-
dental qualities, but also for a man who
has vote getting power if they are to
beat Bryan in 1908. Bryan has demon
strated his ability to "go some," and
work horses cannot run with racers"

LOOK UPON THIS
Party Principles

We, the representa-
tives of the democratic
party of the State of
North Dakota, in con-
vention at
Minot, North Dakota
the 2nd day of August,
a. D 1906, do hereby
~promulgate the follow.
ing declaration of
principleS:
The Yale expositor., 1906-08-31
AN EDUCATION.

The Yale schools begin Monday,
Sept. 3rd. Let us consider the value
of an education. Ii is estimated by the
u. =. bureau of education that of the
l5,0O0,000 men i'm this country over 30
years of age, 2,0O0,OO0 are without edu-
cation, l2,0O0,0O0 have had only a
common school education or its equiv
alent, $4,000 have received IA high
school training in addition, and in
round numbers 100000 have had col
lege training
The brief biographies of over 10000
men commonly considered successful,
collected by "Who's Who" afford an
opportunity for comparison. OF the
men mentioned in "WhO's Who" not
one enrolled himself in the first class
the 2,000,00O without education. From
the second class came 1870, or one
from every $500, and of these n re-
ported themselves as self taught.
From class three came 1880 or one for
every 400, and from class four, 100,
one for every 40.
The conclusions drawn by the com
pliers of the statistics are that the boy
with a common school education has
one chance i'm 1900, the high school
course increases the lads chances 22
times. and a college education gives
the young man ten times the chance
of high school boy and 200 times the
chance of boy whose training stops
with the common schools. The col
lege graduate is prominently success
full and the self-educated man incon-
spicuous. In the light of the above
statistics may we not have our Yale
schoolroOms filled next Monday? In
crease your childrens chances by start
ing them to school the first of the
term. +. w. Wheaton.

him leave our city. Success to you.
A reward of 800 is offered by Sher-
iff Thos. Moore for any information

August IL, 1905. If the guilty ones
are secured speedy justice will be dealt
out to them.

father, Charles Dewey, and they were

when threshing outfit in trying to

away throwing both the occupants out.
The carriage passed over the lad with
fatal results. Mr.. Dewey escaped with

BUSINESS CHANGE.
Well-knoWn Citizen Purchases S
Interest In Loan Company.

A change has been made i'm the man
agement of the Mt. Clemens Loan x
Trust Company, Charles Schied having
sold his interest i'm the business to G..
T.. Roswell. Mr.. Roswell has given up
his position at the Park Baths and will
devote his entire time to managing the
business.
The loan company WAS established
several months ago and has enjoyed a
good business. Mr.. Schied took the
management from the start and has
built up good business. He secures a
better business proposition i'm a larger
field i'm the east and will soon leave for
his new field of activity. He was form
erly partner in the Cass hotel, dispos-
ing of his interest here and organizing
the loan company. He has made many
friends during the three years he has
been resident of Mt. Clemens.
Mr.. Roswell is one of the best-known
citizens of Mt. Clemens and has been
interested i'm other lines of business in
the city. He is a good business man
and will undoubtedly make success
of his new venture. Mt. Clemens Dai-
ly Leader.
Mr.. Roswell was i'm the mercantile
business in Yale number of years ago
and his friends here will be pleased to
learn that he is meeting with success
in life. Here's hoping that you may
meet with continued prosperity, Chas.

WILLIAM DUNNING,

Personal sketch of William Dunning,
candidate for Republican nomination
for Representative, First District, st.
Clair County.
Communicated.
Wm. Dunning was born July "a. lS45
of lrish-Scotch parentage. He re-
ceived his education i'm the common
schools and at the age of ~ came to
Michigan. Shortly after he was EN-
ployed as foreman for the John Cole
lumber business, then leading indus
try in the Thumb of Michigan. From
1864 to 1875, he was closely identified
with the numbering interests of this
section and was well and favorably
known by the large number of men en-
gagged in that occupation.
In 1875 Mr.. Dunning was married to
Miss Ella Hollister. About the same
ii me he purchased his farm in section
"a, Burtchville township, where he now
lives. During the 30 odd years i'm
which he has been actively engaged in
farming he has been prominently asso-
ciated with the social and political in
terests of the community. AS an Off
Ger in the public schools and an official
in the church every worthy enterprise
has received his cooperation and ear
nest support. In politics Mr.. Dunning
has always been Republican. He
has served his township as treasurer
and for many years has been member
of the board of review. In the days of
political conventions Mr.. Dunning was
usually delegate from his township
and has always taken an active inter
est i'm the election of the party ticket.
Mr. Dunning has never been an of
fice-seeker and it was with some hesi.
tation that he responded to the earnest
solicitation of his friends to become a
candidate for representative from the
first district of st. Clair county. Hav-
ing responded to the call of duty his
petition has been filed and the active
support of his friends is earnestly de-
sired at the primary election Septem-
ber 4.
If nominated and elected Mr.. Dun
ming will bring to the office mature
judgment, careful, conscientious inves-
tigation of public questions, independ-
ence of expression and sincerity of
purpose which will be appreciated by
his constituents.
