The county dads have repealed the
county bounty of 50 on coyotes and $40
on timber wolves, leaving only the state
bounty of S211a on all classes of wolves.
Ward county during the month of June
paid $500 in wolf bounties which is
considered too much. One White
Earth hunter, Mr.. Ramsdell, was paid
$500 alone
The excessive heat OF the
Fourth did not keep the crowds
at home, for there never was a
larger crowd in the city. Fully
fifteen thousand people spent
the day in Minot. The sun was
sweltering hot, but the crowd
was good natured and did not
mind it much.

EXECUTIVE CONTROL
That Is Object Roosevelt
Keeps In View.

WASHINGTON, Oct TO- (SpeciaD
President Roosevelt is becoming
holder, if not more determined, in his
campaign against the Constitution.
Whatever private opinion may be
as to his ultimate course, his decla-
ration that he is not candidate for
denomination must be accepted for
the time being; he must be regarded
not as a candidate for reelection.
That he would accept, and really de-
sires, a denomination is the opinion
of many, but if lis declaration that
he will not be a candidate is to be
accepted in good faith hi. speach-
making tour of the Middle West can
not be regarded as the campaigning
of a candidate fog office. If the idea
of his candidacy is dismissed some
other object OF the campaign may be
sought other than that of merely see
ing his people" and gratifying their
curiosity to look upon him

Harps on Constitution.

In his utterances one thing stands
cut boldly as the matter uppermost in
his mind which he is determined to
impress upon the people by methods
most insidious. 1t is the Constitution he
talks about Whether mentioned in
exact terms or by implication, he
makes constant reference to this in
strument as a thing that hampers
Executive action, and if strictly adj
hered to would retard the material
progress of the country.
The changes are rung upon the in
adequacy of the Constitution, the in
ertia resulting from it's observance
and the necessity which he processes
to see and which he wants the people
to believe exists for its change and
expansion by such Interpretation as
will make it plant and fe1 ible, so
that it may be accommodated to the
will of the Executive and to any con-
dition or emergency which in the
opinion of the Executive may have
arisen or may be threatened.

'CURTAIN-RAISER"
FOR Win. J. BRYAN
Address At The Virginia
State Fair.

RICHMOND, VA, Oct, 10. (Spec-
iaD-William J. Bryan arrives in
Richmond tomorrow to deliver an adj
dress at the Virginia State Fair. On
the advice of close political associ-
ates with whom he has recently con-
ferred, Mr.. Bryan, it is understood,
will make his address on the issues
of the day, and in a sense the speech
will be a curtain-raiser for the 1908
campaign.
According to those in a position to
know, it has been Mr. Bryan's inten-
ton all along to defer the formal
opening of his campaign until near
the end of the year. The activity of
rtsident Roosevelt, Vice-President
Fairbanks and other Republican lead
ers has brought about change in
the plans of Mr. Bryan, however.
His friends have urged him to de-
clare himself at once upon the polit-
ical issues of the day. They have i'm
pressed upon the Nehraskan the ne
cessity for immediate action in view
Of the recent attacks upon him in the
Southern states of the Atlantic sea-
board.
Acting upon their advice Mr.
Bryan decided to appear in person
and answer the attacks made upon
him. After filing his Richmond date
he will make visit at a number of
other places in Virginia and North
Carolina He will then go north, stop
pirg en- route for conference in
Washington, and later will be heard
in a number of cities in New York
State. He will remain in the East for
some weeks and according to schedule
will fill a number of dates in New
England.

WHY IT SUCCEEDS.
Because It's For One Thing Only.
And Americas People Appreciate
This.

Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing we'll brings sue
cess.
Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing
only.
They cure sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney
i'll.
H. Y. Terrell, veterinary surgeon,
living at 67 State street, Albany, Ga,
says: Although l have never been
laid up by kidney complaint, I have
suffered a great deal with a lame
and aching back, and have felt like
going to bed on that account often
enough. This dull, heavy pain was
with me for several years. The urine
was also very dark and sluggish, and
contained a thick sediment. l tried
all kinds of remedies, and used pres
criptions of my own, but without sue
cess. Nothing seemed to take hold I'M
til | procured Doan's Kidney Pills.
They were exactly suited to my case.
Since using the pills I have not been
bothered with those pains, and the
kidney secretions have been restored
to a normal color and consistency. :"

His Continual Theme.

This is the one thing which Mr..
Roosevelt is preaching to the people;
it is the theme running through all
his utterances. Whether speaking of
control of corporations, of internal
Improvements, of the duties Of citizen
ship or of motherhood, of the up
building of industries and the eleva-
ton of mankind, drawing pic
ture of this nation as a great world
power, supported by magnificent
army and navy, the underlying argu-
ment is for an abandonment Of the
Constitution, which is held to view as
thing standing in the way ard in
terfering with the accomplishment Of
the great things which he holds up
temptingly before the public eye.

Determined TO Retain control.

His campaigning at his tine is not
to be construed as a canvass in pur-
suit of such a denomination. On the
contrary, this campaign, if success
full, would reader unnecessary his
continuing in office. This apparently
is the object of his present cam
paign. If he can create public SEN
timent which will compel the adop-
ton of his theories and the prosecu-
ton of his plans, regardless of the
personality Of the Presidential can
didate, it will not be necessary for
him to continue in the office,
If Mr. Roosevelt becomes satisfied
that this can be accomplished through
public sentiment compelling the selec-
ton to the Presidency of someone
who will carry out his plan, it is
practically certain that he will not
himself be a candidate.
But his campaign is in the interest
of this Capitalization of power in the
Federal Government, and if he be-
comes convinced that it can be ac-
complished in no other way it is prac-
tically certain that he will accept the
nomination and will construe it as a
license to go to the full limit Of his
theories.
