James Scott
Passes Away,

Died, at his home at Ashtabula,
Barnes Co., N. D., Wednesday
morning at 4:30, July 9th 1908,
James Scott, aged seventy-two
years three months and fourteen
days.
The deceased was a man high
ly esteemed and respected by all
who knew him and was found
walking in the well beaten path
of righteousness and when con-
scious that he was nearing the
end of his earthly life he more
fully realized, and as the final
summons came, he was deeply
impressed with the fact that at
the end of time eternity began,
and that the same faith which
sustains all christian loving peo-
pie was with him during those
trying hours of suffering and
was only growing brighter and
brighter as he journeyed toward
the infinite, and the final gloom
of death be dispelled by the love
of his Maker.
The deceased has been a con
slant sufferer with throat trouble
during the past year and it was
but last Saturday that he re-
turned to his home from Valley.
City, where he has been under
the care of a specialist for some
time.
The funeral services will be
held from the Baldwin Presby-
terrain church tomorrow and will
be conducted by the pastor, Rev.
Robertson. ALL that is mortal
of our friend and neighbor will
be laid at peaceful rest in our
silent city.
James Scott was born at Ian
AYRSHIRE, Scotland, March oath
1886. He was converted at an
early age and was Of Presbyter-
ian faith. He was united in
marriage to Harriet q. Wilson,
March 10th 1864, unto which

Adj. McRae, Regina, Saak., Mrs.
Hector Mckay, Hope. N. D
Janet Lousin Scott, Ashtabula,
N. D., S. D. Scott, Hope, N. D.
On October 22nd 1879 his beloved

You'd. In October 1880 he and
his children came to America and
resided in WabaSha Co.. Mimi,
! till April of 1891, when they

KENNlSH AND RUCKER DEBATE
The Assistant Attorney General and Congress-
man Here Wednesday Night.

The people of Laclede and vicin
ity were treated to a real politica
circus at the opera house last Wed
nesday evening in which Hon. Johr
Kennish, assistant attorney gener.
al, was the ringmaster and the hero
of the evening, while Congressman
Rucker was the clown. The re-
publicans were billed for meeting
at G.. A. R. hall to be addressed by
Mr.. Kennish and the democratic
candidates with Congressman Ruck-
er as chief speaker were billed for
meeting at the opera house. On
arriving in town Mr.. Rucker chal-
lenged Mr.. Kennish for joint de-
bate. The challenge was promptly
accepted, the opera house filled to
standing room and the meeting
opened with J. Paul Jones chair
man. Mr.. Rucker was the first
speaker and as usual devoted his
time to abusing the republicans
and charged the party with every
crime and calamity from the Egypt
ian famine to the San Francisco
earthquake, neglecting to mention
single thing he had done for his
constituency during his years in
congress or to even allude to the
fact that his party was in control
of every branch of the federal gov
ernment from 1913 to '97 and the
conditions that prevailed at that
time. The only doctrine he advo-
Gated was that of free trade, max
ing but one specific charge where
protection was unjust. He charged
that the railroad corporations were
paying So per ton more for steel
rails than the same rails We're sold
for in foreign markets. With tears
in his eyes he pleaded with his
audience to vote for Bryan and
democratic congress that this
burden might be lifted from the
railroad corporations.
Mr.. Fuckers remarks were so
scattering that Mr.. Kennish did
not have time to cover them all in
the plain, honest and convincing
way in which he speaks, taking up
only the questions that are peril
nent to the present campaign. He
proved that Bryan was false
prophet by reading some of his
prophecies made in 1896; he prov
ed that the democrats were insin-
cere in their demand for publicity
of campaign contributions lnasmuch
as we had a law of that kind in this
state when the democratic state
committee collected funds from
trusts and corporations and used it
to debauch the legislature and pre-
vent legislation hostile to the cor
porations and trusts so contribut-
ing, and many other things we
might mention if we had space.
The democrats claim to be pleas
ed with the debate and we know
the republicans are and would be
delighted to have it repeated in
every precinct in the county.

Rummell's store doesn't claim
the earth; neither does it claim to
have all the business in Brookfeld,
but the decided increase in business
justifes the remark that something
surely must be pleasing the trade.
