COUNTY
BOND SALE

Mott Pioneer Press: The Hettinger
county bonds were sold Tuesday of
this week to the Board of University
and School Lands at percent. On
account of the financial stringency the
county had experienced considerable
trouble in disposing Of the bond is
sue hence the above will be welcome
news. The fact that the bonds sold
at 4 percent will also be a great
source of satisfaction as the county
had expected to pay at least per
cent. Much credit is due County Au.
ditir Berry in bring about the sale.
At the meeting of the county cons
missioners last week Auditor Beery
and States Attorney Stone were ap.
pointed a committee to wait upon
the Board of University and School
Lands relative to the disposition OF
the bonds. The board was reluct-
ant in accepting them, but was fl
nally prevailed upon to do so. In dis
posing Of the bonds at 4 percent
County Auditor Berry has saved the
county in the neighborhood of $4,000
The bonds were originally issued al
5 percent, but buyers went begging
at that figure, sa at meeting of the
county commissioners some time ago
the rate was increased to s percent
lie is easily discernable that the say
ing of 2 percent on the $4,000 bono
issue for ten years, interest payable
semi annually, will amount to quite

al the popularity of the republican
president has come from the adoption
Of democratic principles and reform.
We cannot rely much on republican
senator's. We may get the house, but
1t will require an Overwhelming vic
tory to get the senate. I am hopeful
we may make enough gains to secure
the senate forsdemocratic reform. On
one vote in the senate may rest the
fate of democratic principle. For a
generation we have had the govern
ment under corporate control. This
government was sold to the highest
bidder and since that time saturnal-
ian feast has existed in Washington.
The only relief is a democratic tri-
umph this fall, not only the White
House, but also the house and senate
the legislature of Kentucky faces
a great responsibility and should
arise to the occasion and elect DEM
ocratic senator on whose vote deliv-
erance may rest
He said personalities should not be
allowed to figure in politics. He said
it was wrong for democrats to refuse
to support men just because they did
not want them. He said in 1904 he
took his medicine in Parker. Parker
was the man above all others he did
not want, "but," declraed Bryan, ahe
stood for more democracy than the
republicans did, and accepted him
and did what I could for him. Give
me bitter enemy and IL he stands
for the same things ! stand for, will
do more for him than his best friends -
At the conclusion Of Bryan's speech
Senator Wheeler Campbell, an anti
Beckham democrat, arose and said he
would refrain from making public his
reasons why he would not vote for
Beckham for senator, but he would
give Bryan his reasons in private and
he felt sure Mr.. Bryan would shake
hands with him and say:
well done, good and faithful DEM
ocrat."
He was greeted with Kisses.

IN The HOUSE

Washington, D. c., Jan. 21.-At the
close of a day of excitement in the
house of representatives, an amend
ment was added to the penal code
bill making it criminal offense for
any officer or employe of the gov.
eminent to give out advance informa-
ton regarding any crop statistics au-
thorized by law to be prepared. TIL"
original amendment was by Mr.. Bur-
Lesson of Texas, who made strong
plea for it's passage, but a substitute
by Mr.. Sherley of eKntucky, with a
brief addition by Mr.. Olmstead of
Pennsylvania, was accepted. The
necessity for its adoption was con-
ceded by nearly every member who
addressed the house.
Earlier in the day interest attached
to a tilt between Mr.. Dalzell of Penn
sylvania, and Mr.. Ransdell of Texas,
over the latter's amendment prohibit
ing the senator's or members from
being employed by public service cor
porations. Believing that Mr.. Rams
dell had insinuated that he repre-
sented such corporations at this time,
Mr.. Dalzell grew indignant and de-
clared that he had not been employed
in such capacity for twenty years.
The climax of the debate came when
Mr.. Clark of Missouri, announced,
amid thunderous democratic ap-
plause. that Bryan would be nomi-
mated at the Denver convention,
while Mr.. Boutell of Illinois, aroused
the members on his side Of the house
to enthusiasm by. stating that Speak
er Cannon would be the republican
nominee.

Dickinson Press: Chief Of Police
Corbett made tour of inspection in
South Dickinson Tuesday morning
and located the boy who confiscated
the overcoats beonging to All Ellian
and Clarence Working. The coats,
which were taken from post south
of the brick plant near the river, had
been missing for eight days and Mr..
Corbett had no real clue to work upon.
He made several trips to the south
side and the shyness of one lad at
tracted his attention. On Tuesday he
called to the lad, who Immediately
had business at home, where he went
without delay. Mr.. Corbett reached
the house at the same time and in less
than five minutes was on the return
trip with the coats. As Messrs FL
liam and Working received their
coats in time for cold weather, no
action will be brought against the
young man, who claims to have
found 'em."

Time is tending to demonstrate that
Troy really has copper mine. Min
ing men who have investigated the
showing pronounce it simply marvellous,
and predict great future. The lower
tunnel has tapped the shaft in
the upper workings, showing fine
lot Of rich ore. 1t is the intention of
the company to ship car or more as
soon as the roads will permit, demon
strating by actual test Of large quantity
the wonderful richness of the mine.
The company has decided to place
$4,000 shares on the local market.
having authorized the secretary to dis
pose of that amount. This, with the
funds being raised in the east, will en-
able the company to make such a
showing that the stock will find ready
sale at a much advanced figure over
present quotations. A plant suitable
for the handling of the ore is to be
erected this summer or early fall, and
another tunnel run. This will give
total depth of between four and five
hundred feet, and prove conclusively
the real value Of one Of the greatest
copper showings ever found in any
country. The ore runs from $50 to
$50 per ton, according to assays made
oy five prominent assayers, and picked
iamples have gone even higher.
Enough is now shown to demonstrate
hat the ore body is sufficiently large

that anything was wrong was when the

WHAT WE SAID.

The Moscow Post says that Peter
LaDow circuit was in Moscow Saturday
and predicted the nomination and
election OF James H. Brady for gov
ernor." The Post should also have
quoted Peter LaDow Orcutt' a little
further. Mr.. Fields should nave men
toned the fact that Peter based his
prediction upon the fact, as he
C'Peter" } told Mr.. Fields, that there
are today in Idaho too many republic
can editors who are too cowardly, or
too dishonest, or too much owned to
oppose the work of machine politicians.
The Post should have said that Peter"
plainly intimated right to the face
of the Post editor that we believed the
Moscow Post was OF the class referred
to. If Mr.. Fields failed to catch the
force Of our predictions" we will re-
peat them here. If Brady is nominated
and elected it will be because Idaho
has few republican papers with the in
dependence and self-respect necessary
to stand up for decent politics, and too
many editors who have sold themselves
body and soul to the party bosses. If
Brady is nominated it will be because
the Moscow Post and other republican
papers have gone out OF their way to
endorse the candidacy Of an unfit man,
and have, at the command OF unscrup-
ulous and designing political tricksters,
fairly smothered Notorious Bill Brady
with their silly, sickening soft soap. If
Brady is elected it will be because
men like George Fields stand ready to
excuse republican treachery, and go
out Of their way to apologize for re-
publican Reputation. The Troy News
has said that it would be impossible
for the republican party of this state to
sink so low, or nominate a ticket so
rotten, that George Fields
would not get down on his Bonded
knees and beg the privilege of sup
porting it. He would wallow in the
putrid mess of party gangrene to his
ears, and for vote stultify his man
hood at the feet of rank and rotten
politics. Is he not doing it? Is he
not already aligned with the forces of
republican depravity and dishonor?
Is he not using his influence in behalf
OF republican machine that less than
two years ago lied to the people Of
Idaho, and brazenly deceived them?
Nor has Mr.. Fields ever written one
word in protest. If so, when and
where7 Rather has he signified
willingness to defend, apologize and
deceive the people, even though his
cowardly conduct cost his state ten
thousand dollars Of ill-gotten gain
dishonesty taken from the pockets
OF the common herd who are COM
PEELED to pay an unjust tax that rich
and lawless corporate greed may go
untaxed.
