POLITICAL OUTLOOK
in MORTON COUNTY
REPUBLICAN, SENTIMENT GROVE
ING AND oLD-TIME MAORI
TIES PROMISED.

Mandan Pioneer: Republican senti-
ment is growing throughout the coun-
ty. With election day still four weeks
off the odds are in favor of johnson
by large majority. The reasons
for this are plain in that.C. A. John
son has clean record back of him
and the people of Morton county know
this. He is a respected citizen Of the
city in which he resides (Minot and
is of the best western stock, and
above all he stands staunchly and
flat-footed on the same platform as
that indefatigab1e worker and states
man, William H Taft. ..r
Taft is certainly as goood as elect
ed, not because it is Taft, but because
he stands for principles that Ameri-
can people advocate. In that his cleo
tion means the furtherance OF the
Roosevelt policy which has become
SO dear to the American people. With
a Republican in the White House it
would not be gaining harmony in any
manner by placing q man in the
gubernatorial chair who would oppose
through the state every good: national
legislation that might be suggested.
It isa known fact that many Demo-
crats throughout the country have
Joined the Republican ranks in the
past few weeks. It goes to show the
tidal wave in favor Of this popular
candidate. We welcome these men,
but they must understand from the
start that Republicans will not stand
for the incubation Of any of their pet
hobbies and they must declare them:
selves firmly for the principles of the
Grand Old Party. The county tick
ct is highly popular, and every man
on it is amply capable Of filling the
duties Of the office which he seeks
The fight for one or two OF the offices
are being contested, but election day
will see every man on the RepubH
can ticket placed in office.

new NORTHWEST
ROAD WELCOMED
NEW ROAD INTO WINNIPEG WILL
MAKE COMPETITION FOR Il
CANADIAN PACIFIC.

Chicago. Ill.,. Oct. The compile
tion Of the Grand Trunk Pacific road
is being hastened and 1T is expected
that within short time several hum
sdred additional miles will be opened
for passenger service. Approximate
ly 666 miles of new road have been
opened for passenger service between
Wainwright and Winnipeg. Already
many fourishing towns have sprung
up along the road newly opened.
Many Of the towns bear the names
Of men connected with the road. The
FIRST divisional point is called Rivers,
in honor OF Sir Charles. Rivers Will
son, president Of the Grand Trunk
Pacific. The town Of Watrous is
named after Frank Watrous, Morse,
the vice president Of the road, and
this is also a divisional point. Big
ger, another division Headquarters,
is named after the chief counsel of
the company, and Wainwright is in
honor Of Vice President Vain
wright. as. - =
The advent of the new road is be-
ing hailed with delight in the North
west because it breaks up the trans
portation monopoly which the Cana
dian Pacific has had for years.
It is stated that when the Great
Northern road completes its electric
installation for the operation of trains
through the Cascade tunnel, the COM
pany will consider plans for the elec-
trilizing some of the mountain divi-
sions. There is said to be plentiful
water supply and a plentiful waterfall
for the development Of the electrical
energy that is needed.

LADD WANTS A
SANITARY Law
SAYS CONDITIONS EXISTING IN
I BUTCHER SHOPS OVER THE.
STATE ARE APPALLING HE
WOULD PROHIBIT EXHIBITING
FRUITS ON SIDEWALKS. s

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 49.-Prof. e. F..
Ladd, state pure food commissioner,
said this morning that he is very
anxious that a sanitary law should
be passed governing the conditions
of factories where articles Of food
are manufactured and also controls
ing the sanitary manner of display
ing food stuffs on the sidewalks
without protection from the flying
filth Of the street. ss
The commissioner said that the ex-
listing conditions in some of the
butcher shops in the state were ap-
palling and quoted a letter which
he received this morning from a
butcher in Willow City who was re-
Gently prosecuted and fined for sell
ling sausage In which .tfreezum' had
been used as preservatiye.
The butcher in question was kick
ing because he had been fined $40
for the ana1yzing of his meat, as he
had told the inspector that he had
used the preservatives. He stated
that the other butcher in the same
town made his sausage in the base
ment of his shop and, quoting the
letter, ssmade it out of everything in
a place that was as dirty as a pig
pen.',
Prof. Ladd said that he did not
doubt these statements but said that
there was no way of reaching this
man under the law as there was no
sanitary measure in the statute
However, there is one under the
course of drafting which may be pre-
sented to the next legislature.
Another thing which want in
corporated in the sanitary law" said
the professor, sis an article covering
the displaying of fruits and vegeta-
bles on the sidewalks in front OF

and 1t is especially dangerous to the
children who purchase fruits from

ABOUT THE NEW TUNe.
@ STEM LAMP.

3 The. new Tungsten incandescent
electric lamp, which has lately caused
SO much attention in illuminating cir
cles, is one Of the greatest discover
les of this progressive age, because
it means a saving Of millions of dol
lars to all users of electricity, for
Illuminating purposes. Tungsten
lamps have completely reyolutionized
fncandescent lighting by consuming
so little electrical current in proper
stion to the candle power that the cost
of burning the common incandsscen.
lamps is wicked extravaganza in
comparison.
It appears that the new Tungsten
lamps differ but little from the ordi-
nary incandescent lamps. The glass
bulb and base remain practically the
same. It Is the little "hair pin" where
the magical change takes place. The
filament or hair pin" Is the ordinary
lamp is made Of carbon and Ioopsd
but once, but in the tungsten lamp
it is made Of the rare tungsten" and
is looped several times.
The tungsten lamps will stand high
er temperatures and live longer than
any other lamp.
1t will give the customer three
times as much light for the same
money as he. is paying for the COM
mon electric lamps or the same light
for one-third OF the cost.
It gives pure light instead OF the
slightly yellow light.
Although the initial cost OF the
tungsten lamps are a trifle more, be-
cause Of the rarity OF the metal, the
lamp will burn just as long as the
| common incandescent kind and will
give much better light. !.
The tungsten lamps can be safely
made in such sizes that they can be
used In clusters in place OF the ars
Elamps and large gas lamps for light
/ ing stores or large buildings Already
they are being utilized for 3gtreei
lighting in small cities and villages
at wonderful economy over othel
lamps. I'M i u t!ti

LUDWIG'S LIBEL SUIT
Secretary of State Has $50, ,000 Suit Against Western Methodist for
 Editorial Publication.

Little Rock, Nov. 4.-Date has been set for presenting the de- nurer to be argued by attorneys for the editors of the Western Methodist, who were sued by Q. ;. Ludwig, secretary of state, charging that they had publish ed, editorially, certain articles Ii5eling him, and for which he asked S50,000 as a damage judg- ment.

The defense will demur to the charge of libel ou the dual ground that the suit does not indicate

EMPLOYER LIABLE
Employers Liability Act Is Held to Be Constitutional by Highest Court
 of State.

Little Rock, Nov. 4.-The state supreme court has handed down an important opinion sustaining the constitutionality of the Em- ployers' Liability Act passed by the general assembly in 1907. The case involved was that of the Ozan Lumber Company vs. Frank Biddie, appealed from the Nevada circuit court.
 Riddle was employed by the lumber company in connection with the operation of the carnage in the sawmill at Prescott and received injuries to his right hand through the alleged negli- gence of the sawyer, who, in en' deavoring to turn big log on the carriage, threw it over the carriage guards, striking Biddie, He sued the company for $l,000 claiming it was liable for the negligence of it's employees, under the late legislative act.

|DONAGHEY TALKS OF THE ELECTION
Thinks Bryan Did as Much as Any Other Democrat Could Have Done -Ap- proves Action of Railroad Com
 mission on } Cent Rate.

Little Rock, Nov. 5.-"I be- lieve Bryan made the finest fight that could have been made by any Democrat, and that the de- feat of the party was in no wise due to the fact that he was the standard-be earer."
 In discussing the past election and political conditions yesterday afternoon, Governor.Elect Don a. ghey said:
 In fact, 1 believe" he added, "that ouly through the splendid personality and unquestionable integrity of the man were we able to present so united a front to the political enemy. No other man in the party could so thor. oughly have harmonized all party interests. We were simply con- fronted with a set of conditions that made the people fearful of any change at all. Not that they have not been experiencing any thing but good times under the so-called Republican prosperity, but because of the very fact that business has been depressed for twelve months. Even then we made gains that are thoroughly encouraging.'
 Incidentally Mr. Donaghey ex- pressed himself as highly satis- fled with the stand the railroad commission has taken on the pas. senger and frieght rate situation. "As for the Scent rate, or the question of the commission ap- proving anything but 2-cent rate, the commissioners have act ed right in refusing to recognize the 5 cent rate. They had nc poper to set any rate other than that fixed by the statute, so far as passenger traffic is concerned, except 10 lower the rate. The maximum was set by the legisla' ture, and the commission recog- nized the fact that it did not have the right, even if it had been in clined to exercise it, to approve any rate higher than two cents per mile, on trunk line traffic Yes, heartily endorse the stand taken by the commission"

POLL TAX RECEIPT
State of Arkansas Holds her Last Wide Open Election Poll Tax and
 Negro Vote.

Little Rock, Nov. 4.-The man without poll tax receipt may congratulate the good fortune that befell him in being allowed to vote in the election yes terday, for certain 1t is that this will not happen again in many a day, and perhaps never again in the history of the state. That question was settled in the last state election, when the poll tax amendment was carried with out any question this time as to the validity of the majority.
 The feeling that perhaps some question might arise that would result in contest in congress over the refusal of election judges to allow a citizen to vote because he had no poll tax receipt, this qualification was set aside, at the last moment, and the political door thrown wide open. The only requirement be that he be a uaturalized citizen of voting age.
 There are counties in the state where the negro vote is al- most five times as great as the white vote, leaving out the poll lax qualification. In Desha country, for instance, the number negro males of voting age is i~ over 4,700, while the numbsr of wbite males of voting age IS only l0l2. In Chicot county the pro- portion is 930 to 3, 400 in favor f the negro.
 In Jefferson county the unquali- jed negro vote would double the ghite vote. and so with numerous ,gher counties. These figures
 re taken from the state auditors ecords as to the number of m les assessed as of voting age,
 From these figures it is easy to ee hat msssing of votes n he congressional district affected might have serious results. Indeed, it is expected that the complete returns will show he largest vote, by far, in the his. ry of the state, when the issue was merely national.

HEROIC WORK BY BOY
Chester Davis. 10 Years Old. by Prompt Work Saves the Life of His
 Little Brother.

Master Chester Davis shows presence of mind and courage Tn time of need. Wednesday morn ing Chester and his brother, "Skee," sons of Mir. and Mrs. I. NJ. Davis, were standing in if, n, of an open fireplace when "Skee's' clothes suddenly caught fire. "Skee" is only four years old and immediately started on a run around the room, which of course made the flames blaze fercely. Right here is where ten-year-old Chester showed both presence of mind and courage, for instead of going after papa or mamma, who were both out of the room, he caught ''Skee" and began rolling him on the floor, at the same time rubbing the fire out with his hands and by the time the parents, who had heard the noise, arrived on the scene the fire was practically out. "Skee's' clothes were badly burned, Chester has a few blisters on his hands. and the parents feel that a terrible mis- hap was narrowly averted, for one moment lost at the starr would have proved serious, if not fatal.
