WOULD INACCURATE
A SYSTEM Of
TITLES
Captain Brown of Larimore
Advances Unique Idea on
Keeping Heiresses.

Commenting upon the statements
made by Paul Morton at Philadelphia
few days ago relative to devising
some plan for stopping the flow of
millions OF American heiresses to for
eign countries in a mad race for titled
husbands, and his plan for tax ON all
such depOrted fortunes, Capt. NJ r.
Brown. who has charge of the Great
Northern stock yards at Larimore,
and who is one of Crookston's most
prominent citizens. has plan which
he thinks would work out we'll and
which he outlined as follows:
so many heiresses of the United
States are looking for titles that be-
lieve that titles should be provided at
home. There are no titles in this
country, and nothing to distinguish
people. aside from the. titles received
as a result of elections and too many
times the really able and well-fitted
man is defeated by professional poll
ticians.
My plan would be to provide for
titles of honor. to be conferred upon
those deserving OF them by the gov>
eminent after an examination before.
and thorough consideration by some
high tribunal. OF equal dignity with
the supreme court of the United
States.
This would not be on hereditary
basis, the titles only going to those
who personally deserved them from
personal attachments or special
achievements. This title would not
be a hollow honor. as foreign titles
are. many of them being useless cads,
but would be evidence of real honor.
Il would favor giving titles, reg
ular grades of which should be es-
tablished according to capabilities or
achievements. to both ladies and gen.
tlemen and believe that such a plan
would result in many of our young
men and women aiming towards
higher ideals and greater achieve
ments along their special lines.
The elections and appointments
are too few tc go around and the re-
suit is that many men and women
who have distinguished themselves
cannot be rewarded as their friends
would like to see them. Most OF the
Offices go to middle-aged and married
men, and think there Should be some
means OF distinguishing the specially
LhCl ltO1luS souuS ilcu duu WOulcu
These titles, issued by the govern
ment of the United States. would soon
be recognized all over the world. and
in their conferment nothing but abil-
ity, character. real worth or some
particular achievement would be rec
ogni2ed.
This would provide the American
heiresses with the title she is seeking
after. and, as a result. she would get
better husband, have a happier
home and be infinitely better OFF in
every way than under the present
system, where so many of them go to
foreign lands for an empty title, pay
the penalty with life of wretched-
ness, ended. perhaps, in the divorce
courts after her millions have been
squandered, her health broken and
her life ruined.
The title only is lacking, and we
should provide it. We have the men,
high-minded. ambitious, capable men,
but some women want a title and are
going to get it. We should provide
a system here. graded to meet the

Duluth contractor, is visitor in the
city today on matters connected with
the letting of the contract for the new
paving which will be laid in Grand
Forks the coming summer.
There is probably no contractor Of
the west so well known as the popu-
lar Duluth man and especially in
Grand Forks is his countenance very
familiar as this city presents many
evidences of Mr.. McDonnell's hapdi-
work as contractor.
Needless to say Mr.. Mcdonnell is
an Irishman. splendid specimen of
the physical manhood which dis
tinguishes the natives Of County Mayo
and embodies number of traits pc
culiar to the part of the Emerald Isle
around his place of birth, Westport.
Besides being successful business
man and citizen Paddy" is a politf-
cian-an enthusiastic democrat in
sentiment. and though he never has
sought a political position for him
self, he is powerful ally when en-
listed in behalf of friend. At the
national democratic convention in St.
Louis he served as assistant sergeant
alarms and won many commenda-
tons for the thoughtful manner in
which he provided for the comfort of
the people from his state. In all the
Duluth contractor is man of wide
repute and always receives a royal
welcome whenever he sees fit to visit

Plea and win Have TO Face
Charge Of Contempt.

The first step in the Goldstein d.

charge of contempt for failure to pay

decree provided for. This contempt
case will come up for trial on June
4.
