Battleship--slster Ship Delaware
Almost Ready.

Quincy, Mass, Nov. 1l.--Larger
than any Leviathan Of history or
fable, the North Dakota, greatest Of
Uncle Sans battleships, took her
place Tuesday in the element for
which she was fashioned. The launch
ing at the yards of the Fore River
Ship Building company was Witnessed
by a distinguished gathering that
came from the state for which the
monster is named, and from Washing
ton and Boston.
At the stroke of noon Mics Mary
Benton of Fargo, N. D., drenched the
nose Of the battleship with champagne
and foam and gave It a name. In the
christening party were the sponsor,
Gov. John Burke Of North Dakota, and
his staff, a delegation of navy officers
and representatives Of the state Of
Massachusetts and the city of Quincy.
Record Is Established.
Work on the North Dakota was be-
gun Dec. 10, 1907, and she is now go
per cent finished This rapid work
marks a record in modern shipbuild-
ing. While the government has re-
fused to permit the publication Of de-
tails of the new battleship's design.
she is known to be $40 feet long at the
water line, sis feet inches over all,
with an extreme breadth OF IS feet 3
inches. The trial draft to the bottom
Of her keel is "a feet. and her displace-
ment 10000 tons.
She will be the hrst American bat
tleship to be propelled by turbine
engines. Her sister ship. the Delaware

MAKE THIS UP AT YOUR HOME
Nix II Yourself by Shaking ingredients
in Bottle.

What will appear very interesting
to many people here is the article
taken from New York daily pa
per, giving a simple prescription,
which is said to be positive RENE
dy for backache or bladder derange-
ment, If it is taken before the stage
of Brights disease:
Fluid Extract DandeliOn, one
half ounce; Compound KargOn, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
riIla, three ounces. Shake well in a
bottle and take teasepOonful doses
after each meal and at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this
prescription, stated that the ingre-
dients are all harmless and can be
obtained at small cost from any
good prescription pharmacy, or the
mixture would be put mp II asked TO
do 80. He further stated that
while this prescription is often pre-
scribed IN rheumatic Affections with
splindid results, he could see no
reoson why it would not be a
splendid remedy for kidney and
urinary troubles and backache, as
1t has a peculiar action upon the
kidney structure, cleaning these
most important organs and helping
them to sift and filter from the blood
the foul acids and waste matter
which cause sickness ana suffering.
Those OF our readers who suffer can
make no mistake in giving IL 4
trial.

THE OPEN FORUM


Editor Journal:
In his Sunday morning sermon
one OF our city ministers quoted Mr.
Debs as saying, Damn the Amerl
can Flag" When asked his author
ity for the allegation, the minister
named another minister as his infor.
mant.
Now, having some personal knowl.
edge OF Mr.. Debs, and being entirely
familiar with the spirit OF Socialism
as voiced by him, I am quite pre-.
pared TO challenge the statement.
The thing is unreasonable. II Is
neither good sense, good policy, nor
good Socialism; and Mr.. Debs is not
a fool.
Tell us. Mr.. Accusing Minister,
where, and when. and under what
circumstances Mr.. Debs cursed the
fiag--do this, or stand accused OF a
dastardly act.
Any cheap skate may circulate
campaign yarns for political effect.
