On the Stars and Stripes.
There is only one flag that the sun
never sets on-the British But the
American flag is a close second. for
the sun during half the year never sets
on it either. That is to say, these two
are the only flags that the sun is con
tinuously shining over, no matter what

American eagle.
Perhaps nothing could make US real

Now, word about the primary,
I feel proud of the vote 1 received.
1t simply shows the people were sat-
isfied outside of Chelan precinct, and
they would have been satisfied if they
could have handled me.
l haven't much use for an aspi-
rant who will go into such COM
munity and trade man of, as some
of the republican candidates did me.
However, some of them were honest
and told me they could aot discuss
their own interests in behalf Of their
own candidacy without pledging
themselves first to support their can
didate for commissioner. Am pleased
to note that some of them would not
do so, and by looking over the pre-
cinct vote cast you can readily see
who they were.
| Aside from the stickers used on the
democratic ticket there were demo-
Gratis who voted the straight repub-
lican ticket at the primary in order
to defeat me, pledging themselves by
SO doing to support the republican
ticket at the November election.
| Now, l have had my say, and any,
thing the Leader may say in con-
tradiction you can put it down as
false. AS far as 1 am concerned,
lam through on this matter and this
paper until l make up my mind to
run for president of the United
United States. Then I will buy the
Leader for soc. and get it's support.
There is a good opening in Lake
side for paper that will be fair and
honest with it's neighbors. Come on,
brother, and you will get the support
of the good people on Lake Chelan.
Yours respectfully,

No Good

New York, N. Y. May So.Two
clergymen who arrived home today
on the Celtic from Liverpool, told Of
having been held up and robbed by
brigands while abroad. They were
Rev. Norman Macleod Of Brockville,
Ont, and Rev. George Bailey Of
Washington, D. G., who have spent
several months studying the ruins Of
Ephesus and other ancient cities un-
der the government of Turkey.
The bandits, who live in caves and
prey upon travellers. stopped the
clergymen on their way to Marsaba
on horseback.
It occurred to one Of the ministers
that the road was one on which many
famous journeys had been made,
Marsaba being on the route between
Jericho and Jerusalem and he
thought perhaps a sermon might
save the day, So he told the high
waymen Of the wrong the were
doing, but they did not understand
English and the sermon was unavail.

Hanna Made Fine Memorial
Day Address to Big
TOWnef Crowd

Towner, N. D., May 3O.-(Special to
the Tribune Hon. L. B. Hanna of
Fargo Republican candidate for con
gress, won many enthusiastic support
ers here today by the manner in which
he delivered the Memorial day ad-
dress. Towner contains many mem
bers of the G. A. R. and lengthy pro-
gram was prepared, in which the
school children were given a part.
Speeches were delivered during the
day by local people, and Senator
Hanna had been secured as orator of
the day. He laid aside his politics for
the day and became one of the COM
mon people in the observance of the
occasion. Instead of paying any at
tention to politics the senator paid a
glowing tribute to the honored dead
of the country as well as speaking in
a complimentary manner of the sur.
viving members of the g. AR,
Mr.. Hanna has but little need to
work in this locality or the supporters
OF his candidacy. He has about all
the votes now.
Towner was full Of people from all
parts of McHenry county during the
day. Special trains were run in over
the Great Northern railway, bringing
several hundred passengers.
While the observance of the day
was the principal object, 1t was not
possible for the several hundred farm
ers to get together without discussing
politics to some extent, and discussion
on the streets was pretty free. 1T was
freely conceded here that the regular
Republican state ticket will carry the
county and 1t is claimed by those il
close touch with affairs that Cola G. B
| Little will be the leading candidate
for United States senator, while the
regular Republican slate for congress
L. B. Hanna and A. ]. Gronna, are
given a wide margin over their com
petitors. ss
There is a well organized Taft clut

club are all for the regular Repub

Of good workers it is thought that Nc
Henry county will be regular strong
hold in June. The residents Of tht
rural districts are busy with work OF
the farms and get but little chance t
talk politics, but what expressions cal
be secured favor the regular ticket.
The result of the state convention
at Minot was great educator for ths
people of the county, and many VIII,

together in the right and the regular
altogether in the wrong, have changes

RIVER FREIGHT RATE
RAILROAD COMMISSION IS INvEs-
TTGATTNG RESULTS.


Chairman Charles Henderson. Of the
Alabama Railroad Commission. came to
MONTGOMERY yesterday to prepare his
report to, his associates on the COM
mission on the trafic conditions that
exist on the Alabama and Tombigbee
rivers in order to enable tnat nouy 70
pass on the freight tariffs recently nieo
by the steamboat managers.
In company with Secretary 8. p.
Kennedy. Of the Commission, Chairman
Henderson returned last week from an
extended tour of inspection on the Ala
hama and Bigbae Rivers. This trip
had been planned several weeks before
az being necessary to gain dnformatiof
about conditions In general that OBJ
tain on and along the waterways men
toned. Inasmuch as this is the nrst
year that the Alabama Railroad Com
mission has exercised jurisdiction over
the rates for freight Of steamboats,,
the matter of making tariffs Is rath-
err new thing with the members OF the
Commission. In the tariffs filed recent
ly to apply on the Alabama and Bigbee
there were q number of Increases In
These were on corn and few other
commodities.
Secretary Kennedy on his return to
1AQHtHOlNACty saw O0N ga AAfSh N-N'' -
which he pictured the loading and un-
loading facilities at the river landings
as primitive and imperfect. He allud-
ed particularly to the imperfect
wharves at Montgomery. Selma and
Demopolis. which are the three main
shipping points on the Alabama and
Tembigbee rivers.
There was never any criticism about
the condition in which freight is ul-
timately delivered and received by the
steamboat owners. Despite the unim-
proved wharf facilities the freight
has been delivered in good condition.
But it is believed that immediate I'M
provement in the wharves OF at least
Selma, Montgomery and Demopolis will
be urged by the commission as the
result of observations made by Pres
ident Henderson and seN'etary Ken
needy.
Chairman Henderson said yesterday
he had made practically the same OBJ
sarvations as had been made by Sec
rotary Kennedy. He would not add to
what had been already said on the
subject He will merely present to TN Q
associate commissioners at their reg
ular monthly meeting the first Monday
in April a resume OF conditions as they
were seen on the tour OF inspection
on this report 1t Is confidently expect
ed that final action viii be taken at
the next meeting on the tariffs filed
by the steamboat people.

bribery is an offence that IL so odious

mention Is enough to cause shudder 10
