SPREADING MONEY
Work Of Campaign hsadquar.
tsrs by marshaIPs
Manager.

Lisbon, N. D., June 15.-Sid Ad-
ans, the young..man who is going to
do for North Dakota what Roosevelt
did for New York In the way of pur-
flying politics, as Tom MarshalPs
campaign manager, does not seem to
be able to do any more with Ransom
county for the primaries than he did
in the caucuses to elect delegates to
the county convention which chose
the delegation to the Minot conven-
tion. The entire stalwart ticket is
going through a .whooplng. Little
for senator, Hanna and Gronna for
congress, while johnson for governor
and the other state candidates need
only figure on the s. ize .of their ma
jorities. E. II. Wright for Justice OF
the supreme court, is in favor with
the lawyers here. Fred e. Smith will
also lead Stockwell for superinten-
dent of public instruction with a
good malgin. While this may be the
! headquarters for the Marshall cam.
paien, there is nothing to Indicate
more than that Adams uses it as the
distributing point tor MarshaIl's
pamphlets and pictures. Marshal
seems to imagine that his photo
graphs create "a very favorable i'm
preston. He has had expensive pic
lures made which he sends out by
the thousands. This one item .alont
will amount to much more than man!
a candidate will spend. Marshall ha
not lacked for funds at any stag
of the game and just now is spread
ing his money about literally. AS n
is not noted .as prodigal when i
comes to giving away his. own..money
the superstition is that he has beel
able to persuade .some of the bil
eastern corporations that he will b
! a good man in the senate.

why spald1ng Should be Defeated

BY filing a petition for the .demo-
cratic nomination for Justice of the
Supreme court, Judge Spalding an
uounces in advance that he will not
abide by the result Of the republican
primaries, but IF he is defeated In
his efforts to obtain the republican
nomination he will run on the demo-
cratic ticket. His course will not
meet the approval of either repnbli-
cans or democrats. 1t forfeits what
ever claim be. may have to republican
support.
Since he became member on Feb
ruary I, 1907, Judge Spalding has on
ly done about one-third of the work
accomplished by either of his associ-
ates, the present figures showing 10
opinion written by Spalding 81 by
Fiske and about so by Morgan dur
ing the same period.
Edward H. Wright, Judge Spald-
ing's opponent for the republican
nomination is conceded in every
way fitted for the.otfice of Justice OF
the Supreme Court. He is a lawyer
and not a politician. His briefs are
models. His opinions on legal ques-
tions are respected by judges and
lawyers ..alike. lie has had a wide
experience 10 the practice. During
the campaign Of two years ago IL
was stated by the supporters of Judge
Fisk that that eminent jurist had
had twenty-six cases before the Su-
preme Court Of the state before he
went upon the bench, and the record
was considered unusual. Mr.. Wright
has prepared, briefed and argued over
fifty cases before that court. Folly
three -fourths Of the LAWYERS Of the
state will vote for Mr.. Wright. All
republicans should do likewise and
leave Judge Spalding to get such sup
port as he can from the democrats,
whose nominat tion he is nov seeking.

Chicago, June 17.-Upon the advice
of his physician former Governor John
F. Fill, national committeeman and
delegate to the national Republican

mittee brought on a condition which
it was feared might. become aggra-
waited by any further participation in

THE LEGISLATURE

In the field for state senator is one
of the strong men of Stutsman coun-
ty, William Kavanagh Of jamestown
He came to the county about six
years ago, from Minnesota, and he
began at once to do US good. He had
means and influence al home, which
he transferred together with his clear
judgment of land values aud his un-
firing industry and good sense to
Stutsman county. He purchased a
home in Jamestown, married one Of
the ctty's most charming girls. and
has taken quite an active part in So
ciaI and business life of the city,
making friends with all whom he
came in contract. Mr.. Kavanagh
has been the means of locating over
500 people within the domain OF
Stutsman county since he has been
resident, and has spent over $780,
600 in advertising the lands and the
advantages for business opportunities
in the county. He is not politi-
clan in any sense Of the word, but a
plain, straightforward business man
who is practical, has experience and
knows what people Of the new state
need, both in a legislative way
ard for material develop ment. Mr..
Kavanagh is here to stay, and his
interests are the interests of the
land owner and property investor
and business man in this county. He
is candidate of his own free will,
has not been nominated at any meet
ing. out sticks to the spirit and let
ter Of the primary election law. He
has worked with the laboring people
and has carried dinner pail: he
was raised on a farm ard he believes
that in the success of the farmer and
the prosperity of the farm home lie,
the success of the business and pro-
fes ional man and all others not
strictly connected with agriculture.
If Mr.. Kavanagh is chosen to repre-
sent this county in the state senate
every property owner and tax payer
can rely upon the fact that he will
have a friend at court, a hustler and
one of the men, who does things.

5 .NATOR LOSES
$4,000 IN GAME
Became "Saturated" and
Lost His "BundIe."

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. IA Sena-
tor elect, whose name cannot be men
toned publicly in this connection, is
said to have been trimmed for $4,000
in a poker game at one of the leading
hotels here last week. The story has
been kept as quiet as possible, and is
known only by a few besides those
who had their feet under the table.
He was accommodated, and the play
became exciting. More high balls are
said to have found their way into the
room, and he was saturated before the
game ended.
1t is declared that his friends, who
happened to be "well-to-do' business
men, were willing to gamble for as big
money as he wanted to bet, and that
when they cashed in he was just
Sc oser.
