ARGUMENT
BEGUN YESTERDAY IN SUPREME
En- COURT OVER THE MANDAN Ii h
PIG CASES I'LL, JILL
START OUT WITH
LIVELY WRANGLE AND MADE
TO AGREE

The argument Of. the applications of
the. attorneys for the defendants in ]
the cases at Mandan involving the al
legged violation of the prohibition law,
was begun before the supreme court
yesterday afternoon. Owing to the
fact that Judge Spalding did not ar
rive until the coming Of the delayed
train the matter was not taken up by
the court until nearly 4 o'clock.
There was disagreement between
the attorneys for the defense and for
the state at the beginning of the case.
as to the papers that were filed. As.
sistant Attorney General Stevens said
that he had und srstood that two cases
were to form the basis for the argn-
ments. Since coming into court he
had learned that the petitioners had
based their application on only one
case and this would prevent his use
of some afidavits that had been OBJ
famed in the other case. After some
argument between him and Attorney
Simpson for the petitioners, the court
said that 1t would not hear the cases
unless the attorneys agreed in the
matter and Attorney Stevens conten-
ton was finally sustained and the case
proceeded upon the affidavits, fled III
both cases. III
81 Attorney Hanley opened the case
for the petitioners, reading from the
abstract Of testimony in support Of
his contention that the grand jury had
been illegally formed. Following his
reading Of portions Of the testimony
he proceeded with his legal argument
citing cases in support Of his conten.
ton. The case WAS not finished at
/ the close Of the session Of the court
and will be continued today.

phatic approval Of the American peo-
pie on November 8, 1903.

Sixteen battleships of the United
States navy are on their way around
Cape Horn enrouts to the Pacific
:coast---the longest trip, IL our memory
serves US Alright, ever undertaken by
so formidable fleet of the United
States navy. The feet is under com:
mand OF Admiral Evans, and the six
teen ships are not to be eXcelled in
point of efficiency or construction by
an equal number of ships Of any navy
in the world The objects Of this
cruise have been variously explained.
The Japanese difficulty has been one
of the reasons assigned for 1t. Valu-
able experience in the way of naviga-
ton is another reason. Whatever the
reason may be, we have reason to
hope that it's mission may be one Of
peace. Those of us who remember
the incidents of the Spanish American
war will recall the splendid Journey
of the Oregon around Cape Horn in
time to join the American fleet and
take an active part in the battle of
Santiago. We have every reason to
believe that the sixteen ships of the
battleship fleet will give as good an
account Of themselves. as did the Ore
gon, and that THERE resence in Pacific
waters will change entirely the rela-
tive condition Of affairs in the far
East, SO far as superiority Of ships.
and men is concerned For it will be
a rash nation indeed that will engage
the combined battleship feet, and its
presence In the East may make sub
stantially for the peace and good will
Of nations one toward another.
