Please accept my thanks for Illus

urefull Of meat Just such job
as the excellent equipment Of the
Bismarck Tribune would get out, ard
a credit also to Cushing. It makes
d fine impression on everyone who

my friends here, and when they are
assured by me that those pictures
show the thing Just as it Is. they ex-
press surprise, for the average Ore

that North Dakota is one of the finest
states in the union, and that there

STATES INTRODUCING sTEARY
STREAM oFsEviDENcE AGAINST
BUCHANAN.
STORY OF THE DEATH or OSCAR
CARR AS TOLD BY THE
WITNESSES.

z
Yoss, there was no session Of the dis
trict court Tuesday afternoon. u a
Jury had been secured in the case
against George Buchanan, who is
l!charged with murder In the first de-
IEgree. on Monday. and the state has
lIbeen submitting its testimony since
ltfat time, an evening session being
the1d Tuesday night.
I This is the fourth time that the
tragic story Of brakeman Oscar s..
Cars awful death has been told to
Ia jury Of twelve men. Four men were
held on the charge Of numbering Carr,
in Stark county, two Of whom, Roy
Hathon and Alex Baine, being ac-
tauitted Of the charge. George Miller
WAS convicted and was sentenced to
tsix years in the penitentiary for hav-
Hing taken part in the crime.
Upon the minds Of those who have
Ehad to do with the prosecution Of the
flour cases. the details Of the sad his
|tory have been wildly impressed.
EThe departure Of the freight train
from Dickinson near midnight on the
fs29th Of July, 1906; its passing into
the darkness Of the night; the discov-
Ferry OF four men Id an open space in

lowered himself into the open space;
1.-THE progress Of the train to Richard
ton before a stop was made, the con-
[ductor and brakeman Slime conscious
of the fact that some terrible thing
had happened; the discovery Of the
bleeding, lifeless body sof Oscar Carr
at Rachardton, lying limp upon the
floor OF the car; these incidents make
lup the history Of the homicide.
The defendant now being tried,
George Buchanan, has admitted that
ihe was one Of the four who were in
Ethe car at the time of the shooting.
George Miller, who has been sen
ltenced, had confessed that he fired
three Of the eight or ten shots that
lWere heard by the surviving wit
Inesses. Who fired the other shots?
So far the state has laid its founda-
ifion for the prosecution Witnesses
lhave shown that the freight train
CONSISTED Of AZ cars, and left Dfckin-
son about a quarter after IL o'clock.
The particular car in question was
what is called gondola car, a fiat
car with sides and ends, between
three and four feet high. This car
twas the twelfth from the rear end
OF the rain, and was loaded with
heavy 12x12 timbers. The lower tim.
Ibers were not full length OF the car,
leaving q space about ten feet long
Il at the west end open. At q height
of about Ave feet. several tiers Of

south Carolina in the Senate.

There is reason to believe that the Hon.
BENJAMIN r. TMLMAN does not rejoice
in the prospect OF having as his colleague
in the United States Senate Major j. C.
HEMPHILL, long time editor Of the Nets
and Courier Of Charleston. Far be it
from us to intimate that the man with
the pitchfork and the foghorn is afraid
of HEMPHILL or any other Major in the
world. We firmly believe, On the con-
trary. that he delights in deadly combat
and fattens on hard knocks. The stout
est warrior, however, may have a dis
eliminating appetite in the matter OF
antagonists.
1t is conceivable, also, that ven TILL
might rather yoke up with any one
of several South Carolina Democrats we
could name than with Major HEMPHILL.
This gentleman has a merry fancy and
n nimble wit. As against TILLMAN's
Bpotian bludgeon he could offer but a
thin and dainty rapier. For all that, we
fancy the Hon. BENJAMIN would rather
go along as at present with LATIMER to
look wise and take the thinking part.
HEMPHILL might not look so wise as
LATIMER or seem to do SO much and so
%protracted thinking, but with him in the
other Carolina chair TILLMAN wouldn't
feel altogether sure OF monopolizing the
front Of the stage and commanding

Two Eras.

In his Lexington speech Mr.. TAFT used
this singular language for the purpose
of bringing in a compliment to his chief
az personally popular in the South:
We have arrived In the history OF the politics
Of this country at what seems 10 be a repetition
Of that condition which existed at the end OF MON
RoE's second adminIstra ton. called the era of
good feeling"
The era of good feeling" may be said
to have covered most Of MoNRoE's two
administrations up to the struggle for
the succession in 1924, but we do not
quarrel with Mr.. TAFT's history. He
has a delegated and reflected authority
to regulate history or anything else.
When, however, we recall the fact that
only one electoral vote was cast against
MONROE in 1921 the perhaps uncon-
scious Byzantinism of Mr.. TAFr's COM
parison looks royalty purple. AT any
rate the era of good feeling does not
promise to exist at the end of THEODORE
RoosEvELT's administration. 1t does
not now exist. With ever increasing
vehemence he is trying to produce an
era of bad feeling. He is batting wealth
to the wild cheers ofthe garden. He is
inflamine and has been inflaming and
will not cease to inflame the smaller
demagogues, the ignorant, the envious,
the shiftless, all the discontinued, rest
less and dangerous passions and forces
Of the community. From Washington
the plague has spread all owe the United
States.
And the victims. a growing number.
of Mr.. RoosEvELr's holy war against
capital and enterprise and credit, are
they enjoying an era of good feeling?
The present condition is about as much
like that which existed in MoNRoE's
administration as a dog fight is like the
Hague conference.

Sound Advice From a Sane Man.

Representative SAMUEL W. MCCALL
~ Massachusetts has a way of elucidat-
ing the situation from time to time. He
is of hat small group Of national legis-
lators who do their wi thinking, reach
their own conclusions, and then speak
and vote independently in accordance
with their own opinions.
In a speech at Marshfield a few days
ago Mr.. MCCALL proclaimed his adherence
TO that old fashioned doctrine, regarded
by some as outworn, that the people
should keep, "to be exercised under
their very eyes, all the governmental
powers not necessary to national unity
and safety" He expressed his belief
in a representative form of government.
In support of his opinions he quoted the
words of a former resident of Marsh
field who made some little stir in his day
and time, one DANIEL WEBSTER. The
contest of the ages, said Mr.. WEBSTER,
has been to rescue liberty from the
grasp Of executive power. On the long
list of champions of human freedom
there is not one name dimmed by the
reproach of advocating the extension
of executive authority" This is a sen
timent worthy OF remembrance.
Mr.. MCCALL was one of the few men,
hers of the House who voted against the
railroad rate bill, as Mr.. FORAKER was
one OF the three who voted against it in
holds that the measure was unnecessary
and he states his belief that the popu-
listic agitation started [by the submits
sion and discussion of that bill has
financially and industrially done serious
injury to the country
Mr.. MCCALL's statement is true. There
has been curtailment and in some cases
abandonment of much needed railway
expansion. There has been no reduc-
ton in rates except by State acts of
doubtful wisdom and questionable con
s~tnutionality. The suits instituted to
remedy the Wis of rebating and dis
elimination and to punish offenders
have all been brought under the Elkins
law, which the so-called Hepburn law
superseded and which Mr.. FORAKER and
Mr.. MCCALL have at all times declared
TO be the more efficient measure.
The great central issue of the last few
years in this country has been between
personal and constitutional government.
This fearless and independent Repre-
sentative from Massachusetts, is a be-
lever in the constitutional system. He
urged his Marshfield audience to "ad-
here to the representative government
of the fathers, to the only kind Of gov
eminent which from the foundation of
the world has cherished human free
DOM"

sis. proclaimed in 1900, and in its day 1t
was as stoutly and confidently main
tanned as was the stegomyia theory that
came along a year or 80 later. We are
not suggesting an excuse for the Cuban
officials. They have neglected both the
filth piles and the insects. have kept no
promises Of any kind and have slept on
every duty.
The fact remains, nevertheless. that
these people are not like us and cannot
be made so, no matter how diligently we
may strive. II We did not know this
when we abandoned the island to than
it wa our fault, not theirs. Only a very
credulous or unobservant person could
have imagined that they would depart
from the customs OF centuries in order
to eradicate a disease which they do not
fear and to destroy an insect which prob
ably does not them the slightest
inconvenience.
