CAM
PAIGN ORGANIZATION
STATE TO HAVE MOST sYsTE-
MATIC ORGANIZATION IN
IT'S HISTORY.
Speaking q the meeting Of I,

Speaking OF the meeting of II.
publican candidates, editors and
party leaders Of the First Judicial
district at Grand Forks with Ma
tional Committeeman Kennedy the
Herald says:
The melting Of Republicans Of the
First Judicial district, held in Grand
Forks yesterday, wni1e not particu-
.larly large In point OF numbers, ow-
Ing to the limitations OF the call, was
one Of considerable Importance, po-
litfcalIy, marking as ii does the be-
ginning of what is likely to be the
most thorough, complete and efsec-
tive campaign organization in the his
tory Of the state. TIE plan Of the
organization Is one which will carry
it's results to every precinct
state. The Organization emphasizes
the fact, that however widely Re.
spubiicans Of the stare may have diff
fered over state matters and carldi-
dates. they are thoroughly united ia
loyalty to the national ticket. For
the same reasons that President
Roosevelt Is the type or citizen North
Dakota loves to honor. william H.
TAFT is the candidate To whom this

state will give a very large majority
Of its votes in the coming election,
and when the votes will have been
counted in November 1t will be found
that the latest vagaries of the Demo-
cratic nominee found even less cham
pions than the now discarded isms
he advanced twelve years ago and
agan in 1900. Taft, like Roosevelt,
is the champion Of the people against
the bosses and his integrity Of pur-
pose is questioned by no one. Mr..
Taft's position on the tariff question
Is in near accord with North Dakota
and other northwestern interests.
Taft and Sherman will receive fully
as complimentary a vote as it gave
Roosevelt at the last presidential
election when this state gave him
larger vote in proportion to the pop
ulation than any other state in the
union"

PREPARING FOR WINTER.

Agent F. j. Mccormick of the
Washburn Ignite Coal company says
the people of the city are taking ex.
ira precautions this year by putting
in their winters supply of fuel early,
so much so that many people have al
ready had their Easements filled.
While there are no indication at this
time that there will be car shortage

winter, such things might happen, and
1T seems that the people of Bismarck

Grand Forks, Sept. 8. --Worry
over his extensive business interests
caused 1. B. Gibbs, president OF the
Gibbs Grain & Fuel company, to
become deranged and yesterday
morning, shortly after o'clock, he
took his life by shooting himself
with revolver. He died instantly.
Mr.. Gibbs took his life in the bath
room Of the T. B. Holmes residence,
South Sixth street, where his daugh-
ter, Mrs. George Keenan,, resides.
Shortly before his death he came to
the bed room Of Mr.. and Mrs. Kee-
nan and raped on the door. Mrs.
Keenan, asked what was wanted but
could not manage to make out what
he replied. A few minutes later the
report Of a revolver was heard and
Mr.. Keenan, rushed to Mr.. Gibbs
room. He was not in his room but
in the bathroom Mr. Keenan, found
his lifeless body. He had evidently
leaned over the edge Of the bath tub
as he fired the fatal shot. The bullet
entered his head back of the right
ear and came out in the left temple.
A 32-calibre revolver had been used.
He had armed himself recently, stat
ing that he was carrying a good deal
of money and did not like to 60 I'M
protected.
No Inquest Necessary.
DR.. Campbell was called and he
summoned Coroner Rounsevell, who
was in the city from Larimore on
other business. Coroner Rounsevell
decided no inquest was necessary,
after securing the statements Of Mr..
and Mrs. Keenan, and reading an
unsigned note that had been left by
the deceased. The not was as fol-
lows: NJ

DRAF TING A. LAW
ABOUT BILL BOARDS
DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL
WHITNEY WILL PREPARE ONE
FOR THE COMING LEGISLATURE

One of the more important duties
which was turned over to Deputy At
torney General Whitney by Governor
Frear before leaving for Washington
was the taking up of a law to be sub
mitted to the Legislature by which the
billboard nuisance will be placed un-
der better control. The matter was
brought to the attention of Governor
Frear by Superintendent of Public
Works Marston Campbell, who states
that he has discovered law which
is in use on the mainland and which
1as stood the tests of trial by judicial
authority.
The complaint against the billboards
which deface the public streets is a
matter which comes up periodically
and has not been heard of here fol-
some little time The Promotion Com
mittee took the matter up some time
ago and it was decided that nothing
could be done till the next session oil
the Legislature, where a combined
! fight for suitable restrictions which
will prevent the erection of the huge
signs within certain limits, will be
made by the various improvement
clubs of the city.

'DOLL CONTEST

III the two handsome dolls in Sachs
display windows had real brains, in
stead of sawdust in their pretty heads,
they would be hopelessly spoiled. AS
it is. they feel just little superior
for are they not going to belong to
the two most popular girls in town?
Every little girl in town has friends
who are canvassing for votes for her.
and as four voting coupons are given
with every dollar purchase, the favo-
rites change places every day. The
three who are at present in the lead
are Alice O'Connor, Kathleen Won Holt
