Reminded of Lowry.

Extract from an interview of
Postmaster Mulvihill telling of the
national republican convention in
Chicago, to which he was a dele
gate from the Vicksbufg district:
"What impressed me most of all
was the manner in which Sherman
received the nomination as vice
presidential candidate. Joe Can
non seconded the nomination. Can
non spoke with feeling, fire and
animation. He got closer to the
multitude than any one else, and
he simply swayed the convention
and all hung on his every word.
Uncle Joe's great talk reminded me
of the manner in which Bob Lowry
used to talk down here during the
carpet-bag days-with fire, elo-
quence and determination. AS
soon as Cannon started his speech
| was in ssome manner impressed
with the belief that was again
listening to the eloquent and force
full Lowry"

Irwin Lee, of jackson, died in
that city Tuesday morning from
a congestive chill and was buried
at Fannin, his old home, yester-
day. He was a son Of Steve Lee
and married Miss Louise White a
few years ago. Besides father,
mother, sister and widow he
leaves one child to mourn his
loss. He was popular with all
who knew him for his many good
qualities.

Rev. w. M. Williams, superin-
tendent of the Methodist orphan
age in Jackson, was an appreci-
ated caller at The News office
Saturday. The orphanage is a
splendid institution which is do
ing a great work for children
who, without it, could not have
the advantages of a good home,
needed training in usefulness
and the Christian influence to be
found there, and deserves much
better support than it receives.
No better selection than Rev.
Williams could have been made
to have charge Of it, and it is
hoped that every Sunday school
in the state will comply with his
request and set aside the first
Sunday in each month at which
time to make a special eo1ffribu-
ton to the support of the orphan
age.
The protracted meeting which
has been in progress at the Bap-
fist church for the past ten days
came to close last night. The
concensus of opinion is that this
has been one of the very
best meetings ever held in Bran
don. From the very first the
congregations were large and
enthusiastic. A choir Of more
than twenty excellent voices,
from the different churches Of
the town, under the skilled
leadership of Jas. w. Jelks,
added much to the pleasure and
profit of the meeting. Harmony
and good fellowship prevailed
among all the Christians and all
were benefited thereby. The
preaching was logical and tender
and this along with the personal
Influence of Rev. Mr.. Ball, the
preacher, has had and will con-

one time as is wrapped up in the
lives of these new converts and
the prospects are bright for
much efficient service. Such
meetings as these can not fail to
be of lasting good to our town

Bun River Very Isich

NJ. A. Johnson, one Of the Canton
party that went up to Bull River B.
c., returned home Saturday, delighted
with the outlook and thoroughly con-
WINGED that the Bull River will earn
big money for all concerned. The
water power is immense and valuable
beyond a reasonable estimate. 1t
will turn machinery that will furnish
light aud power for many miles In all
directions. The water power alone is
worth every dollar invested, to say
nothing of the vast wealth In gold
that will be found In the bed Of the
river when the water is turned into
the big flume that is nearly finished
and there is q fine townsite with COM
Ing railroads.
MI. johnson has q small bottle full
Of gold from Bull river, and the size
Of the nuggets indicates the enormous
wealth Of the river bed when free
from the mountain torrent that has
prospectors for years. Every

The membership of the Supreme
Court of North Dakota Is to be in

minds the LEADER that the member
ship Of our supreme court should be
increased to five. The business OF
the Pierre court Is away behind In It's
work and as the state is growing fast
the business of the supreme court
grows also. The coming legislature
should provide for two new supreme

for five. Lawyers and their clients
