WHO'LL HANG The PELTIERS?
Supreme Court Must Decide Between
Warden and Sheriff McKinnon.

Shall the warden of the pen
itentiary or the sheriff of the
county wherein a man is con.
victed of murder carry out the
law and hang the condemned
by the neck until he is dead:
This is the question which
Governor Burke has put up tC
the supreme court under a pro
vision of the statute long mOldy
with disuse.
Robert S. Noah, from Ward
county, and Joseph and Charles
Peltier, of Bottineau county,
are now in the penitent;ary
awaiting the dates of their exc
cution, but the steps taken by
the governor is of little interest
to these men, inasmuch as it
relates only to the question as
to whether the warden or the
sheriff of the above named
counties shall do the hanging.
In deciding the temperance
commissioner law unconstitu-
tional, the supreme court in
effect declared that county Of
ficers had certain duties inher-
ent in their office under the
constitution which could not
be delegated by the Legislature
to. another official. This has
aroused a question of doubt in
the mind of the penitentiary
warden as to whether he has
the right to hang anyone under
the present statute which is
comparatively recent and under
which one man, John Rooney,
has already paid the penalty at
the state institution. Governor
Burke has sent the transcript
of the Noah trial to the supreme
court under the provision of
section 10. 1865 of the statutes,
and asked an opinion on the
validity of the penitentiary
hanging law, which decision
will also eff fect the case of the
Peltiers.

Why the Republican Party Should
':st%s"'@ Be Successful in NODember
By FRANK HENDRICK
of New York City

/. The Party of Expansion:
The republican party was
founded upon the principle
that this government was es-
tablished to protect for all
times the rights and oppor-
tunities of every individual
from abridgment. That prin-
ciple it has successfully main
tanned. Through the civil war
it cOnsecrated reunited cOun-
try to free and equal American
citizenship. 1t has kept the
channels of interstate com
merce open fof all and, through
the national banking system,
the refunding of the national
debt, resumption of specie pay
ments, the gold standard and
the emergency currency law,
has sustained the life current
of national integrity.
AS trustee of the national
wealth, it has investigated
mineral regions, surveyed soils,
developed waterways, includ-
ing the Panama canal, irrigated
deserts, conserved watersheds,
and husbanded the public lands.
Protecting American labor by
regulating irnmi migration and by
taking at the custom house, tC
pay American taxes, foreign
capitals advantage from low
wages, it has preserved to
American industries the home
market of eighty millions OF
the worlds greatest consumers
and 50 laid the surest basis for
American competition in for
eign markets. Uniting capital
and labor, thus, in a common
prosperity and common source
of increased reward, it has
created opportunities, improved
conditions Of employment,
brought about a higher standard
of living, and more widespread
distribution of wealth and we'll.
being, and made expansion
moral as well as material.
Intrusted with insular pos.
sessions,tit has brought then

period. sounded the public
conscience, felt the national
pulse, framed it's policies in
response, and realized in law
the dominant American idea.
Its constructive past assures it's
constructive future. 1t is to-
day as it always has been,
The Party Fit to Govern. l."
4. The Party of Statesmen:
The party of craftsmanship, it
has been the training school of
statesmen. Its policies have
been forged in the heat of pub
lie discussion, tempered in the
deliberation and shaped in the
conflict of many trained minds,
and drawn and finally wrought
for the country's welfare.
Dominating it's members
through principles, it assures
unity in government; it's
staunchest partisans have made
the greatest contributions to
national progress. The roster
of it's leaders is the national
roll of honor of public service.
5. Taft and Sherman Con-
structive Candidates-A Con-
structive Platform: Republi-
canism stands to-day for pro-
gressive policies in safe hands.
BY solving the constructive
problems of world power in the
last two administrations, Will
liam H. Taft taught the world
our capacity and us his own.
In all constructive legislation
for twenty years James S.
Sherman has been a leader. In
the records of the republican
candidates as we'll as in the
platform are written the story
of the nations progress and
the reliance of the future.
A democratic president or a
democratic house would turn
back those pages; thereafter
Bryanism would record "Des-
truction." This the republican
senate could not prevent. Un-
der Taft and Sherman and a
republican congress the great
progress of the past will be
held and the greater progress
of the future will be assured.
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1908-08-28

peace and progress and provided
for the extension and protection
of American trade, for the
national defense, and for the
honorable discharge of the re-
sponsibilities of world great
ness. Maintaining peace at
home, with foreign nations and
among them, it has given
American rights and American
opportunities new meaning
throughout the nation and
throu ghout the world.
2. The Party of Progress
and Prosperity: Promising pro-
gress and prosperity, it has
been politically sincere. 1t has
never had a candidate of a
section, prejudice, or class, nor
a platform of negation, scheme
of reputation, program of
scuttle, or doctrine of despair.
1t has never lent itself to a
demand for revolution, to be
followed by reaction and retro
gression, it has stood firm for
evolution by constant, steady
and enduring progress. Find
ing trusts, giant-born, flourish
ing under supposed conflict of
state and national law, the
double prohibition of existence
serving but to foster the de-
velopment, it has never, in an
attempt to destroy trusts, with
drawn, in state or nation, the
protection of law from property,
but has, through executive
investigation and resort to the
courts, resolved the conflict
which had silenced law and
given trust existence.
1t has never proposed to
advance American working
men and American institutions
by banishing American in
dustries and building up those
of other lands, and scorned to
insult labor with an illusory
promise of immunity from
law. Yet it passed the pure
food law and the employers
liability law, secured equal
accommodations on railroads,
aided agriculture, created the
civil service, established free

rural delivery, reduced foreign
postage, and increased pen
sions. Continuing naturally
marked-out progress, it will
keep it's pledges of tariff read
justment, currency reform and
development of the merchant
marine, and make the United
States the financial centre as it
has made it the industrial
centre of the world.
3. The Constructive Party
1t Organizes the National Will:
In the evolution by which party
government has become the
extra constitutional method of
securing responsibility to the
people, the republican party
has become their traditional
representative and the demo-
cratic party the organized as
piration of individuals for
power without responsibility.
Fairly tried, from 1893 to 1895,
the two democratic houses and
the democratic president were
a wild team" and a helpless
driver. Democracy agitates
local differences, republicanism
organizes the national idea.
In 1868 the people were COM
mitted to the cause of human
liberty; the idea of liberty
and union' expanded for the
first time into the reality of the
American nation.
In 1879 money was committed
to a specie basis: specie was at
once, until 1893, no longer
sought, and government bonds
went to a premium at the
reduced rate of interest. In
1896 business men were again
committed to confidence: before
a single statute was enacted
prosperity set in and in ten
years bank deposits almost
trebled-a permanent gain
which the recent panic, a
state of mind" now completely
dispelled, scarcely touched.
In 1905 business was commit
ted to fair methods; without
compulsion violations largely
Leased.

twenty. Each one has all the
way from quarter to section
of land worth from $50 to $40 an
acre. But why talk about all
this wealth when there is no
one to do the cooking. What
Russell needs is girls. About
twenty-five young marriageable
girls. Girls that will bring JOY
to the hearts of these lonely
young bachelors. Come on girls

Russell is noted for opportun-
tiles and the time has come for
the girls to have their opportun-
ity. Do it now.

Hon. c. A. johnson for Governor.

Bismarck Palladium: Among
the distinguished visitors in
the city Tuesday was Hon. G..
A. Johnson of Minot who was
nominated for governor by the
republicans at the primary
election with such a sweeping
majority over his opponent.
This was Mr.. Johnson first
visit to Bismarck since the
primaries were held, and it is
needless to state that during
his sojourn at the capital city
his time was fully occupied
receiving congratulations from
his numerous friends in this
city. He said he was keeping
in close touch with political
conditions all over the state,
and judging from the sentiment
as he was able to ascertain it,
he was fully confident that
there would be big majority
of votes cast for the entire re-
publican ticket in North Dakota
this fall. Mr.. Johnson feels
grateful, indeed, to the people
of the state for the handsome
and substantial endorsement
he received, and feels assured
that he will be elected at the
general election this fall. He
said that he expected to make
another visit to Bismarck soon,
and that about the first of next
January he expected to move
to the capital city and make
this his home for at least four
years.
