powers OF our courts. Tor the develop
ment Of our educational institutions,
for square and fair dealing between
all parts and sections Of the state,
and I have never failed to stand Tor
the interests Of my especial section
the Missouri Slope and the western
mart Of the state. I have not felt 1t
necessary to support measures that
have been introduced solely for the
nurpese of "buncombe" and there
have been many such bill introduced
bills whose authors did not expect
to pass or want passed-and that
were v called for after their ref
erence to committee. 1t Is needless
to 20 further into this document that
has been set forth by my political
enemies. I have shown its animus,
Its cunning attempts to deceive, Its
falsehesds and its suppression OF the
whole truth. I have shown that 1t
is false in so many essential partfc-
ulars that the fair minded man Will
give it no credence whatever. I
have shown the record to have been
perverted, falsified and suppressed
in an attempt to misrepresent me
before the people of the state.
Sustained BY Constituents.
The people 1 have had the honor
to represent in the senate, the ma
jority of them being farmers, are
the equal in public spirit and intell-
igence of those of any district in the
state. The capital is at Bismarck
and they have had personal oppor-
tunity to observe the work OF the
legislature with thei:: own eyes. Fol
20 years they have honored me with
their confidence and their votes.
For 20 years the senate has hon
ored me with the position OF chair
man of the judiciary committee.
To charge that I have failed to
fill that position honorably and with
fidelity of purpose is to indict the n
tire body Of the senate for sustain
ing me in a position that I have held
term after term, to the disadvantage,
as you claim, of good legislation.
The charge is untrue in every par
ticular.
Your compiler selects q few meas
ures that At his own argument which
I have disposed Of here, but he says
nothing of the measures for which I
have labored, now on the statute
books Of the state and agreed to be
as good as those of any state in the
country.
AS chairman of the judiciary COM
mittee it has been my good fortune
to have had as much to do with con-
structive legislation as any other
member Of the senate body.
AS for Sinking my duty I do not
believe there is a man who has sat
with me in the senate in the course
Of the past 20 years who will accuse
me of seeking to dodge a vote on
any issue.
I have been always ready to stand
by my convictions.
Your compiler, I think, stands con-
victed as a pettifogger and q wilfull
falsif1er Of the record.

transportation possibilities of the
country, Is n of the most important
problems Of the age. Nor do I be-
lieve that the Red River of the North
should be abandoned as a navigable
river, as has been urged by some.
The greater utilization of natures
highways, free to all, where pools
and combinations cannot successfully
throttle competition, will act as a
watchdog on transportation rates
and be of the greatest benefit to all
the people.
North Dakota is practically tree
less, and the propagation Of forests,
not only in North Dakota but other
prairie regions, would be OF the
greatest benefit to the farmers, and
congress should pass an act provid-
ing for a bounty for tree planting un-
der a comprehensive system pre-
scribed by the government and sur
rounded by proper safeguards. The
rapid depletion Of our natural for
ests and the awful consequences to
follow, unless means are provided
for restoration, demands prompt con-
sderation on the part of the federal
government.
The Importance of the preservation
Of our forests is equalled only by the
benefit to accrue to the people
through the keeping in trust for
their benefit the coal deposits Of the
country, and the policy of leasing
the coal lands under state and feder-
al control, instead of allowing them
to be monopolized by private owner
ship is heartily approved.
The importance Of the observance
of all laws by the people Is equalled
only by the duty of our officials, un-
der their oaths to enforce them. Any
evasion or delay is inexcusable. De
mand for repeal or modification OF
the prohibition law is not tenable
from any section until honest and
earnest efforts at enforcement shall
have demonstrated its impracticabili.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result. and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
iniamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cuerd by

Editor Chief; OF course, your read
Gro have been interested in the war
ships which came from the Atlantic
around the Horn to the Pacific coast,
and, perhaps, would like n description
OF their reception at San Pedro harbor.
We had known for some days that
they expected to be there April Is at 3
p. IN. As il is considered agrcat event
in the history of Southern California
there was liable to be a big crowd
there SC we drove down early, reaching
near the edge of the bluff overlooking
the harbor. Within ten minutes after
We drove in there the place vas filled
in with automobiles. The harbor was
on m side of us and the road on the
other. 80 they could only get in to stay
behind where we were, so did not OBJ
struct our view. II is estimated that
100, 900 people went in there that day
on the four a lines that u into San
Pedro. Besides, there were 5000 auto
mobiles and other vehicles of all de-
scriptions. For three miles out from
the city the ground was covered with
carriages and people on foot. As the
ground rises from one bluff to another
nearly all could get a view of the bay.
About 2 p. M. we caught sight of the
ieet-they looked like large birds with
white wings. The enthusiasm was i'm
mense-bells ringing, whistles blow
ing ahd all sorts of noises made to ex-
press the delight of the multitude
which lasted about ten minutes, then
commenced again as the ships were
coming into the harbor. AS they came
in it was n grand sight. l have seen
merchant ships and other smaller craft
on the Atlantic coast, also warships on
this coast, but ! never saw any so
beautiful as these are. The bulls are
as white as snow. The masts and the
rigging above are light yellow. 1t is
said they are painted in that style for
visiting, but before they go into a bat
tie they are changed to the color OF
the ocean. The flagship Connecticut
came rs near the shore as possible, the
others strung out in u straight line

it became dark they were lighted up
and many thought that was all the
illumination they were to have and
started for home. But others said
they had been promised more than
that and thew would stay until =
o'clock and see. And they were well
repaid for waiting, for at that hour
exactly the illumination came. At the
same instant as by a flash every ship
became "A mass of light outlined against
