From appearances about the
West hotel today, it would
seem that this city has been
decided upon as the head
quarters for the. campaign of
the insurgent republicans i'm
North Dakota, the new gan g
having apparently adopted the
method of holding their meet
ings out of the state. Three
very prominent in surg e n
leaders,, one. a very late con-
vert, are in the hotel, while a
fourth is expected to arrive this
evening.
Thomas MarshalI of Cakes,
candidate for United States
senator; H. Bendeke of Grand
Forks, candidate for lieutenant
governor and Austin Regan of
Fessenden, one of the i1lsurgent
leaders, are already at the. hotel
while Treadwell Twichell of
Cass county, t h e insurgent
nominee for the governorship,
is scheduled to arrive here this
evening.
It is understood that the
purpose of this meeting is to
.ay pIons IuI .ne Coming Cam
paign in North Dakota. Mr..
Bendeke is: on his way to
Europe ON a three months trip
and this is the last time he
will have an opportunity of
comforting with his fellow can
didates, before his return.
Marshall, it is now claimed,
has but two complaints to
make in regard to North
Dakota political conditions, the
first being that johnson refuses
to get out of the way, while the
second is that Col. G.. B. Little,
another candidate for senatorial
honors, has raised the ante.

home a few miles north of here,
was held at the Catholic Church

south of town. A wife and
two children are bereft.

him in partnership with Earl

have sole charge from now on,
and will doubtless serve the

manner as heretofore.
Louis Critics of Overly who
conducts the leading hotel of
that village was in town on
Tuesday shaking hands with
his old friends.
Miss Mabel Lund returned
from her spent at her home
on Monday and assumed her
duties as teacher in our school.
The Woodmen installed new
officers, initiated new members
and celebrated their silver
anniversary by giving a banquet
and having an all round good
time on Wednesday night,
assisted by the Royal Neigh
bOrs.
A large number of Willow
City people went to Barton
on Friday night to attend the
Woodmen dance. Willow City
orchestra furnished the music
and the Barton people are loud
in their praises of it, declaring
it to be as good, if not better
than any music ever furnished
them before on such occasions.
We were unable to obtain the
names of all who were in
attendance from here, but
among them we're Messrs. Phil
Halls and Andrew Rygg and
wives and Mrs. Nettie Hager.
A number of social affairs
took place during the last days
of vacation among the young
people here. On New Years
night Mr.. and Mrs. Robertson
entertained large party in
honor of their son Clarence
who left the fist of the week
to resume his studies at the
University. On Thursd day
night Miss Airline Shetland
was hostess to a party of about
forty friends which proved a
most delightful affair, and on
Saturday night Miss Muriel
Armstrong dispensed hospital
ity to a goodly number of her
young friends all of whom had
just the dandiest kind of a
time.

not lnclnded under the second class rate which is
made to publishers. This ruling became opera
tive on January 1st, 1908, 1t came so sudden
that few publishers had time to notify their sub
scribers of the change and as a consequence there
are few who are prepared for it. We wish to
call the attention of our readers to the ruling and
ask those who are behind in their account to
come in and settle at once as we do not wish to
take their names from our list We shall within
a short time mail to every subscriber statement
of his account and trust all will give the matter
prompt attention. The postoffce department
has given publishers limited time in which to
secure renewals of past due subscriptions but at
the expiration of this period those whose &C
counts have not been settled will of necessity be
taken from the mailing list in accordance with
the ruling of the postofice authorities. Please
give the matter your early attention.

liar and a man UNFIT to associate with

Not only can neither Mr.. Lilley nor
Mr.. Hill conscientlously vote for the

publican can who comes to the defense
OF Llllcy. a vote for Lilley Is neces-

The fact that man of Mr.. Hills dis

THE PRESIDENT.

The news from Washington is TO
the effect that President Roosevelt is
sharpening his quill pen In order to
answer Mr.. Bryan and to thus con-
tinue the controversy between them.
The friends and admirers of the
president must deplore deeply this In
reference on his part with the politi-
cal campaign. They understand his
impetuous nature and his love Of a
fight but they shrink from seeing him
ignore the great dignity Of the office
he occupies in order to take hand in
an cventful scrimmage.
The presidents conduct is neither
Just to himself, to the Office he holds,
to the country nor to Judge Taft. He
needs as nc never needed before the
counsel of cool head, the restraining
influence Of strong hand. Even he has
limitations set to his right to do as
he pleases. Even his extraordinary
popularity cannot be overcapitalzed.

At large meeting in New Haven
Friday evening A. Heaton Robertson
was formally notified OF his nomina-
ton as the democratic candidate for
governor OF Connecticut, Mr. Robert
son Endorsed unquellnedly the platform
adopted at the state convention He
spoke AZ some length and with consld-
cradle specification. The speech is that
OF patriotic citizen who has definite
Ideas Of government by the people and
clear conception Of the way In which
that government has been perverted.
and Ap % s PSnt he 'aa ar fam% iY
wards those same principles Of ollgar-
chy or government by few, which
have destroyed the vital principles of
free government In every country. in
the world More important even than
and practices was the closing passage
In which he said
II nave lived In Connecticut for more
than fifty years. as my. fathers did be-
fore me It Is small state and you
ness. II by their suffrages the people
of Connecticut deem me worthy to hold
the highest Office within the gift OF my
native state, an Office held by 80 many
distinguished sons Of Connecticut, with
am, | shall accept the Office, and in
the administration OF the laws Of the
state Of Connecticut shall know
neither rich nor poor, but shall do my
duty without fear OF any man, and my
highest ambition will be that when I
lay the duties OF my Office down, ] may
leave It with the respect and best
wishes OF my fellow citizens as q herl-
tage to my children and my children's
children"
Those are the words Of a capa BILE,
honorable man, who feels his respon-
slbllty and means to live up to II 10
the best in his power. They are worth
much protestation, and all who know
him are assured that they are seriously
spoken, and mean absolutely what they
say.

Mr.. Fornker's statement.

We do not sec that It does him any
good except to let him openly attack
the president and Mr.. Taft. There is
no getting around the checks which
have been exposed or the letters which
read as nationally as any Of the others
and which he has no copies Of. AS
for setting up at this day that he was
not on the moor Of the senate the lead
Ing corporation man." It indicates
that lie was not aware OF his own repu-
taton and standing. The cold fact Is
indisputable that while senator he
was receiving big fees from a great
monopoly which evidently was med
ding with legislation wherever II
thought advisable. II could hardly ex-
pect man to be a friend In Ohio and
critic In Washington. and as rule
senators know what each OF their
hands Is doing. n he cannot see any
improperly In what he has done. that ia
In Itself a pitlable confession and suf-
flces.

THE MORNING NEWSPAPER.

For several months now II has been
daily demonstrated how essential to a
working knowledge OF current events
a publication like The Journal Courier
Is. and what is true OF this morning
newspaper in this community Is true
OF every morning newspaper In its
community. The false notion that has
been encouraged that the evening is
the time 20 acquaint oneself with the
news Of the day Is slowly but surely
being overcome,
The time to read the news OF the
day Is when the record of the day
has been written and that Is the
morning after. We do not say that
the afternoon newspaper is without a
place in a community. 1t obviously
has an important place and It fills
that place acceptably, but as recorder
OF the news II cannot be compared
with its morning contemporary, Take
for one single example the present
lively campaign, which is being car
ried on in the country by number
OF political organizations. To learn
OF the news of 1t the interested citizen
must search the columns of the morn
ing newspaper for it is in the columns
OF that newspaper that 1t can alone be
found In all of its freshness and en-
ergy The afternoon newspaper
necessarily boils 1t down for inside
publication In order to care for the
happenings Of the half day. 1t Is this
difference in the business OF the af-
ternoon and the morning newspaper
which Is more and more making Of
the former bulletin publication and
Of the latter the complete newspaper
giving the full record Of the day.
1t Is this difference in outlook, too,
which has brought the admirable
penny afternoon bulletins into service
and kept them practically out of the
morning field The we'll informed men
must start the day with knowledge
Of what the day before brought forth,
for It Is upon his knowledge Of world
wide conditions that business success
or failure depends To deny the
superior usefulness of the morning
newspaper over the afternoon, both
4 for news and advertising purposes, is
to put the cart before the horse
and to misdirect the energy Of days
work The citizen must look to the
morning newspaper for the character
Of local government for the reason
that the large part Of Its business Is
/ done In the evening and is alone
4 treated exhaustively by the morning
newspaper. In whatever direction, in
| fact, one turns, one Is confronted with
the impressive fact that the morning
Is the time to learn of the world s
record for a day, and that while even
Ing reading has Its peculiar fascna-
ton 1t cannot deal with record
which at the moment Is in the MAX
ins.
Finally such a newspaper as The
Journal Courier, with the full asso-
ciated press news Its special news
service and It's corps of reporters, is
better newspaper for local service
than a morning newspaper printed
elsewhere and compelled by its dis
lance from the local field to go to
press earlier, For single illustra-

OF the teetotal party that the camel
was the original water wagon will do
for iocose explanation as to why the
animal was chosen. II can. further
more, be fairly claimed that II is as re-
spectacle choice as the elephant OF
