immense crowd had gait to hear
the speech making.
The president was introduced by
representative John Sharp Williams.
He received an enthusiastic reception
and was cheered at every opportunity.
When Congressman Williams said
that Theodore Roosevelt was presi-
dent of the whole country. Dixie
land, Yankee land and the whole
land, the demonstration was notable,
lasting several minutes.
THE PRESIDENTS SPEECH.
In his speech here the president
said:
1T seems to me that no American
president could spend his time better
than by seeing for himself just What
a rich and wonderful region the lower
Mississippi valley is, so that he may
go back, as shall go back to Wash
inRton, with the set purposes to do
everything that lies in me to see that
the United States does it's full share
in making the Mississippi river prac-
tically part of the sea coast in max
ing 1t deep channel to the great
lakes from the gulf. l wish to see
the levees so strongly built as to re-
move completely from the minds of
dwellers Of those lower regions all
apprehension of possible overflow.
81 advocate no impossible task, no
difficult taks. The people of Hol-
land, a little nation, took two-thirds
of their country out from under the
sea and they live behind the dykes
now and have lived behind them for
centuries in safety.
"With one tenth the effort we, a
much greater nation, can take the in.
comparably rich bottom lands of the
lower Mississippi out of the fear of
being flooded or being overhowed by
the Mississippi, and while do not
like to say in advance what | intend
to do, shall break my rule in this
case and say that in my next message
to congress | shall advocate as hearth
ly as / know how, that the congress
now elected shall take the first steps
to bring about that deep channel
way and the attendant high and broad
levee system which will make of those
alluVial bottoms the richest end most
populous and most prosperous agri-
cultural land, not only in this ma
ton, but on the face of the globe.
Gentlemen, here is the reason
am particularly glad to be able to ad
vocate such a policy: l think ans
policy which tends to the uplifting
of any portion of our people distri-
butes its benefit over the whole
people, but it is far easier originally
to put into effect a policy which
shall, at the moment indirectly
help the people concentrated in tbs
centers of the population and wealth
than it is to put into effect a polio!
which will help the dwellers IN th'
country and the tillers of the soil
Now, here we have a policy who's
first and direct benefit will come t.

School Rooms Required.

1t is expected that the school board
will hold meeting some time this
week to consider the advisabilty Of
building another school house of
three or four rooms, near the Cen.
trail school building. Prof. H. II.
Barton finds it impossible OF accom-
modate all the school children at
tending the present central school,
the schools are becoming 20 crowded.
There are few towns in the northwest
who can boast of such school growth
as Occur d'Alene actually enjoyes.

COUNCIL AND
MAYOR CLASH
Warm Session Over Street Grades
and Cement Walks

At last nights council meeting ell
the aldermen were present excepting
Boyd Hamilton, the mayor coming late.
The street committee recommended
that W. p. Brennan be allowed to
purchase at a price agreed upon by
the council and him, the alley laying
back OF his lots In the Fort grounds.
The matter was placed In the hands
of the committee to determine the
valuation and make the sale, In order
that the alley may be vacated at an
early date.
The laying OF cement sidewalks was
discussed at considerable length, es-
pecialy ON Sherman street. Alder
man o. Il. Barr reported that At
torney r. E. Mcfarland recommended
that the grade of the Sherman street
sidewalks DO Te-established before any
new ones we're laid In order that the
grade be consistent and established
before the adjoining property holders
be ordered 10 lay the walk; otherwise
they might lay the walk In accord-
anoe to their own established grade.
Alderman McEuen insisted that
Government way running up from the
river In an easterly direction should
be- graded. He contended the open
ing of this road was necessary for the
use Of the b. X. Lewis people. lie
claimed the question here arose as
the right to grpde the road where II
crossed the Stack -Gibbs tract, mas
much az that tract was not within the
city limits. The proposition Of Civ
ing the Brewery company the right 10
lay sewer pipe across this tract was
also questioned.
The city attorney gave a written
opinion concerning the bill recently
presented the council by the water
commission for 5000, one half TO be
betrayed by the city. This bill was
alleged to be for labor rendered in
the recent fixing Of water rates by
that board. The city attorney said
IL was matter wholly within the
domain Of the mayor and oouncii 20

5000 was reasonable or not. N. d.

Sounds Like Business

This sounds as If Attorney General
Miller really means business:
s'The prohibition law in Bismarck
is no longer joke. It will be en-
forced from now on. Every officer in
Bismarck will hereafter be required
to see that the prohibitory law is en-
forced. Any officer willfully failing
or ,neglecting to do his duty will be
prosecuted for malfeasance in Office
and an action will be brought for his
removal. 1t is nonsense for police
and other officers to claim that they
have no knowledge of violations when
more than dozen open places are run,
where Intoxicating liquor is openly
sold.. There is not an officer in the
city of Bismarck from the highest to
the lowest that does not know the law
is openly and hagrantly violated 1t
is also nonsense to claim that the law
cannot be enforced. There is no man
or set of men in Bismarck greater
than the law. I am acting upon in-
structions from Gov. Burke and his
instructions will be faithfully carried
out. Assistant Attorney General
Miller.

. Auto Accident

The following from the Minneapolis
Tribune of Monday, March l8, will be
OF interest to a great many people il
this city and surrounding country:
Mrs. John Murray, wife OF the Bos.
ton block real estate man. was seri.
ously and possibly fatally injured il
collision between street car and ar
automobile at Seventh street and Hen
nepin avenue early yerterday after.
noon.
The injured woman now lies at he,
home at 2617 Harriet avenue in a dan.
gerous condition. Her skull is frac.
tured at the base and she is suffering
from internal injuries, the extent O.
which are not known at this time.
Mr.. Murray, who has been in Spring
field, Ill, on business, was sent fol
soon after the accident. He left early
last evening for the bedside of his wife
and was expected this morning.
With Mrs. Murray at the time O.
the accident were w. j. Murray O.
2546 Aldrich avenue south; Misses
Margaret, Laura, Katherine Murray
of 25l2 Harriet avenue, and Miss
Agnes Martin, friend of the Murra,
girls.
The party had been out motoring
for couple of hours when it was de
cided to go into the business districts
Mr.. Murray, who was in charge O.
the car, swung into Seventh street of
OF Nicolett avenue and speeded toward
Hennepin avenue.
AS he approached Hennepin he no
ticed Lake Harriet car slowly cross
ing the street bound towards Wash
ington avenue. Turning to one side
Mr.. Murray thought he could cleal
the street car. He, however, miscal
culated the distance and crashed into
the car. Mrs. Murray, who was sit
ting in the rear seat, was thrown
about Is feet. She struck on the bacl
of her head and was rendered uncon
scious.
Miss Katherine Murray and M s.
Agnes Martin were also thrown from
the automobile, but luckily escaped
serious injuries. Mr.. Murray ant
Misses Margaret and Laura Murra,
remained in their seats, though al
were badly shaken.
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1907-03-21
AS soon as possible Mr. Murra,

AS soon as possible Mr.. Murray
ran to the side of Mrs. Murray. He
found her unconscious and bleeding
from severe cuts and bruises. She
was carried into ,La1nbert's drug store
on the corner and was examined by
DR.. Hunter.
w. G. Egerton, of the Winston
Automobile company, drove up in his
car and after the injured woman had
been placed in the rear seat he drove
as rapidly as possible to her home.
Physicilns have been working over
her since then and have hopes for her
recovery. She, at a late hour last
night, was in a selni-conscious condi-
tion, but apparently pretty strong.
Unless her condition improves today
it is probable she will be removed to
hospital.
After Mrs. Murray had been taken
from the scene of the accident the
other members of the party were taken
to their homes in carriages.
