Governor SarIes Is Interviewed on
State Issues and the Herald Man
Meets His Waterloo.
Wahpeton Globe: The Grand Forks
Herald's "staff correspondent who
has been doing politics in the north
ern part of the state, frcn, the in
surgent point of view, has felt at per-
feet liberty to invade the sanctity of
the gangs domains and write up
things as he chose, whether his full
limitations read like the maunderings
of an estranged being or not,
wandered down into Trail county last
week, and there met his Waterloo.
The chap ran across Gov. Sarles and
Interviewer him, or rather asked
the governor for "story" and got
one. That lie which the Valley City
Times-Record harped on about the
state funds being loaned to sfavored'
banks throughout the state on the
strength Of check is exploded.
Spalding's lie about state funds hav-
ing been dissipated is exploded. Gov
ernor Sarles is high toned gentle
man who has amassed a fortune in
North Dakota in legitimate business.
AS he says after a life time spent in
building up a reputation he could not
afford to mar it for 'paltry political
Office" These medacious people who
are so ready to throw mud at other
men should think of that! Gov. Sar-
les is a liberal, vivacious man who
loves his family and friends, SPLEEN
did entertainer and most agreeable
companion. His home and family are
sacred to him, and reflection upon
his business or political honor is no
light thing. The governor would like
a denomination but would not swerve
the breadth OF a. straw from the
coarse he chose to pursue for the
satisfaction. I. I. ,sgsy, stsS5z 5s

Senator Spooner called attention to
the fact that practically this same
provision is in bill which has
passed the house and is pending be-
fore the senate committee on judici-
ary. He thought it wise to leave this
question to be disposed of in that
separate measure. Senator Kean
said it had been his purpose to pro
pose that bill as an amendment to
the pending bill.
+ Senator McCumber insisted, how
ever, upon a vote on his amendment,
and it was adopted, with only three
or four senators answering in the
negative. d,

the "hysteria" which had seized the

clearly developed by first restoring the
imprisonment feature, which had been
stricken from the old law upon the
recommendation of the members OF
the interstate commerce commission,
and then following this restoration by
going back to the fines method as the
most effective way to reach rebates

A Minot dispatch to the MINNEAPOLIS
Tribune says Of the political situation
in Ward county: The eyes of most
politicians of North Dakota are turned
toward Ward county, which will have
the largest number of delegates in the
republican state convention at James
town. Both the insurgents and the
machine men are making elaborate
preparations for a strenuous fight
The campaign preceding the
primary election, which will be held
June 10, will be formally opened next
week. The anti-machine men, or in
surgents as they are called, have al
ready decided on list of delegates
to the state convention, and" a selec-
ton will be made by the machine men
In few days.
There is much anti-machine senti-
ment in Ward county, and the fight
here promises to be a strenuous one.
The machine leaders charge that
Major J. S. Murphy, recently tried at
Fargo on charge of forging tax re-
ceipts, is leading the insurgent move
ment, and they believe that his con-
nection with reform will cause its
ultimate defeat in the county. The
Murphy men deny that he is taking
any active part in the campaign,
maintaining that the cry is made for
the purpose of driving voters into the
machine camp.
Both the machine men and the in
surgents are having some trouble In
harmonizing the opposing forces in
their camp. In the insurgent camp
there is rivalry between former Cover
nor J. NJ. Devine and Major Murphy.
Devine maintains that he will have
nothing to do with the reform move
ment if Murphy is taken in.
In the machine camp the difficult
problem Is to harmonic the friends:

Trust holdups of railroads for re-
bates and determinations were given
a body blow by tho senate today,
when it adopted an amendment by
Senator McCumber to the rate bill
providing that any consignor or. CON
signee who shall receive or accept
from railroad any money or other
valuable consideration as rebate
shall be subjected to a fine equal to
three times the total value Of the re-
bate received. s:j. +. Z
In advocating his amendment SEN
ator McCumber cited particularly the
revelations concerning Standard Oil
transactions in the Garfield report
and in President Roosevelt's message
While there was al general disposition
to penalize the railroads for granting
rebates, there was nothing. he con
tended, in the pending bill striking at
the great trusts which are responsible
for forcing rebate concessions from
the railroads. s;sss9
Mr.. McCumber quoted from the Gar
field report that the Standard Oil
company had obtained rebates and
secret rate liscri mination Ia It's
favor amounting to dis much as $780,
900 a year and that this practice had
covered at least six years, TO meet
