When Attorney General McCue took
charge of his Office one of his first
acts was to call the attention of states
attorneys and others to their duties
nder the prohibition DAVIS of the
state. The enforcement of the law
has been repeatedly demanded by the
republican state platforms and Mr..
McCue is receiving praise from all
quarters for his prompt action in this
matter. The st. Thomas Times speaks
of it as follows: From all parts of
the state come reports that the lid is
down tight and the prohibition law
being enforced rigidly. This is large
ly due to the clean up at Bismarck
and and the circular letter sent out
by the attorney general to states at
torneys, mayors, sheriffs and peace
officers generally. May the good work
go on

VILLAGE OFFICERS.
BIG ENOUGH FOR ALL.

Before we know it we shall be in
the midst of preliminaries for the next
republican national convention and
the selection of republican candidate
for the presidency. The publication
of the letter of Mr.. Hartman and the
subsequent reports of the million
aires dinner at which plans for the
defeat of the policies are said to have
been outlined, may precipitate the
contest in the various states, and
bring the issue of the presidency to
such focus that it may be decided
long in advance of the convention.
President Roosevelt, so we are in
formed, adheres to his original
declaration that he will not again be a
candidate for the presidency. Never
theless, he takes a pardonable and
justifable interest in the republican
candidate who will be chosen, and he
would without doubt prefer one who
will carry out the Roosevelt policies,
to a reactionary candidate, whose
nomination might with some show of
truth be made to indicate dissatis-
faction with the political and business
policies of the president. With regard
to the alleged "millionaires' dinner
and the fund of five millions for the
nomination of candidate not in
sympathy with the president, it may
be said that it was splendid newspaper
copy and interesting reading, without
admitting that such a dinner ever
took place. Issues of such moment
are rarely discussed at dinners, where
there is necessarily mixed company,
and from which reports might and
would in all probability transpire, to
the defeat of whatever plans it was
sought to carry out.
The facts in the case may be, and
it would not be at all strange that
they should be, that the democratic
opposition is seeking as far as possible
to foment and fan discord in the
republican ranks, believing that in a
divided republican party there is the
only hope of democracy While it is
not entirely tempest in a teapot,
this preliminary skirmishing between
the president and those who are said
to be his enemies, it is not necessary
to bring about any serious breach that
shall be reflected in the next republi-
can convention. The policies Of the
president are pretty generally in
dorsed through the country, and it is
not at all unlikely that he could go
before the people and obtain an In
dorsement that would be thoroughly
satisfactory.
No candidate for president will go

The Colonel Has Been Assigned to
Special Work in North Dakota
This Summer
Fargo, N. D., April 9.-The friends
of Col c. A. Lounsberry will be
pleased to know that he will spend the
summer in North Dakota after an
absence of nearly two years during
which he has been in charge of one of
the departments of the general land
office at Washington.
The colonel has been detailed by di-
rection of Secretary of the Interior
Garfield for special duty in North Da-
kota in the examination of land en-
tries. It is expected he will reach the
state within week or ten days.
Colonel Lounsberry has had fifteen
years experience in this work and az
ter his work in the general land office,
returns to North Dakota better equip
ped than ever for his duties.
The colonel always pursued line
of policy in his examination of entries
in the state to assist the honest home
steader in adjusting his difficulties
rather than creating additional trou'
BILE. The dishonest entrymen, who
made little or no pretense at comply.
ing with the land laws, were exposed,
of course, and their cases reported to

Fred Leonard of the New Salem

sent to the National Fuel Briquette
Machinery company, 80 Broadway,
New York, supply of New Salem
Ignite coal for the purpose of hav-
ing it briquetted by this company.
Mr.. Leonard says Mr.. Devilliers, the
manager of this company, has had
many years experience in the briquet-
ting business in Germany and has
successfully briquetted Ignite from
North Dakota and other American
lignites and believes the North Da-
kota product can be briquetted at
small expense.

before the time for the next conven-
tion, as to the kind of candidate they
want, and possibly as to his identity.
We do not believe the president need
worry at all as to the kind of indorse-
ment he will receive at the hands Of
the next national republican conven-
tion, nor do we believe the next re-
publican candidate for the presidency
will be any one but one whom he can
honestly and sincerely indorse. Nor
do we believe he will be disposed to
interfere with the choice of the dele
gates of the party when the time for
that choice shall come. We shall
probably need the best timber in the
party as the next presidential candi-
date and when he shall be chosen, it
will be found the party is big enough
for all of its elements.
There is no mistaking the sentiment
in North Dakota, and the west gener-
ally, in favor of President Roosevelt
for denomination. His first term was
not elective. He has been before the
people but once for election to he
presidency. His declination if fol-
lowed by the nomination of one out
of touch with the people and lacking
in personal magnetism would give a
dangerous impetus to Bryan and
therein lies the danger. President
Roosevelt is close to the common
