"A RefOr1ller in
Private Life

In connection with the follow
ing decision Of the Commissioner
of the General Land Office, we
would suggest that some of the
so called reformers begin BY
reforming themselves.
The Commission Of the Gener-
al Land Office has handed down
a decision iii the contest of
Homer Resler VS.. Heirs Of Alex
ander Louiselle, denying Resler's i
right to contest a valuable piece
of land near Starkweather. In
view of the Starkweather Edis
tors frenzied denunc atoms Of
I the claim jumpers at Nome,
Alaska, the history of the case
has some public interest. Alex
ander Louiselle was an infrn
old man whose failing health:
/ made it difficult FOR him to re-
side continue uously On his claim.
Resler had his eye on the case,
utsWaited till the cd man had
submitted final proof, when he
filed his affidavit of contest, al
leging that the proof was fradu-.
lent. While the matter was
pending the old entryman died.
Worry over the trouble may have.
llastened his departure from this
life. Such trouble often does,
and this was the old fellows
only world ly possession. But
this slight circumstance did not
deter the reform editor from
pursuing his course. The Heirs
were made defendants and the
case was fought Though the
different appellate divisions of
the land courts, with the result
that the Secretary Of tlle Interior
finally declared that the simon
pure, good government league
reform editor of StarkWeather
should not be allowed to annex
this old settlers 8 property nor
take il away from his heirs. |

cient, but not fraud ulent. het

Try allowed 10 stand. This litisI

fetes and entertainments attending the
royal wedding A surprising number
OF visitors from South America and
from Cuba have also put in an appear

much enjoyed by the populace.
The trousseau of the royal bride
was placed on exhibition today at the
senate house. The spacious salons
were beautifully decorated with palms
and flowers, and the exhibition. ar
About the hem ruches were arranged

medallions embroidered in delicate

Another one was composed of pale
blue liberty satin cut en- princesse
sIhe skirt was trimmed with inch-Wide
plated frills edged with white, ar
ranged in points, with insertions Of

The corslet was finely gathered, and
the simple bodice was daintily trim

respond with the skirt.
Pale pink-and white satin foulard
in a small design was a striking ma

was made with a small transparent
pointed yoke of cluny lace outlined
with ribbon velvet applique. and the

Why He Should
Be Opp osed

The connection Of ex-Repre-
sentative Spalding with the in
famous salary grab while he was
serving In the national legisla-
.ture, is creating considerable in
terest among the voters Of this
state who are demanding facts
.andsreasons for the charges the
party disruptionist are making.
The people have reached the
point where they demand clear.
cut facts and specific statements,
not inaendos and insinuations.
In this matter they are INQUIRE
ing into the record made by.
these self-styled reformers, and
In doing SO have discovered that.
even with the mantle of charity
they cannot cover some Of the
records of these emo-insurgent
leaders.
= Mr.. Spalding record while
congress is public property and
"a matter Of concern to those
whom he now vainly seeks To-
lead politically. If there were
nothing in that record except his
vote to admit Canadian wheat
into this country free Of duty to-
|conapete with the products Of our
|oWnfelds and reduce the price
OF North Dakota wheat to that
|of Canadian, if not to entirely
destroy our market, the people
of this state would need to con-
slider long before they could af-
ford to trust him in a position
where he might not only be re-
CURED to vote upon that ques-
|tio1l. but upon others Of a simi-
lar character.
The price Of wheat affects
every farmer in this state, and
the admission of free wheat
from Canada would ruin the
market and the farmers at the
same time. Mr.. Spalding's rec
ord on this matter is public
property and the men who toll
through the summer to grow a
crop Of wheat will not be caught
by his pretensions Of reform IN
order that he may again be in al
position to vote in the interests
of the milling trust
Nor is this all. While it does
not come home so closely to the
people OF this state, it is worth
noting that he was one of the
men IN congress who voted for
the granting of mileage to mem
