A KNOCK THAT WILL BOOST

A brief Telegram in the Minneapolis
Journal, emanating from Grand Forks,
is to the effect that c. B. Little of
Bismarck will withdraw from the race
for the United States senatorship in
favor of Senator Hansbrough Mr.
Little, so the Tribune is advised, has
not withdrawn and has no intention
to withdraw from the race, although
without doubt some of the other can
didates i'm the race would be pleased
if he should transftr the large and
growing support he has gained through
all parts of the state,
Since Mr.. Titles first announce
ment of his candidacy, which is on
his own behalf and in the interests
of all the people of the state, and
not because Of or in behalf of any spe-
cial influence or interests, as has been
suggested by those who would profit
by misrepresenting his candidacy, he
has received assurances of support
from all parts of the state which
have been flattering and encourag-

North Dakota. He has been in the
state senate for twenty years, has
kept closely in touch with state and
national issues, is a level headed pub
lie man and eminently qualified for
the position to which he aspires. He
has the same right to his candidacy

 ON STATEMENTS
Insurance President Objects to
 Certain Reports
LOANS ALL WELL SECURED
Mir, Peabody Declares That Loans Made By the Mutual Life Were All Regular and On
 Good Security.

New York, February s-Charles A. Peabody, presiednt of the Mutual Life Insurance company made public to- night a letter he has sent to Governor Hughes, protesting against certain comments upon the Mutual Life Insur- ance company, made by Matthew c. Fleming in the report of his examina- tion of the office of State Superintend- dent of Insurance Kelsey.
 Mr. Peabody declares that substan- tially all the comments made concern ing the company by MT. Fleming are entirely erroneous, and, "the impression produced on the ordinary reader of this report would be that this company. dur ing MT. Kelsey's administration. has been guilty of repeated violations of the Insurance law which he failed to detect, although upon careful reading or the report, it cannot be discovered that MT. Fleming takes the responsi- pliity. of charging a single instance where the law has been in fact yio- lated"
 MT. Peabody calls attention in his
 
 Mutual Life Insurance company, which MT. Fleming mentions in his report, Concerning these loans, MT. Peabody says:
 More than half of a newspaper col umn Is taken up with the subject of various loans on collateral security made by the Mutual Life. Of those made during the years 1906 and 1907, i've are mentioned. Why they are men, toned does not appear, for of those loans only one is selected for particu- lar comment and that is a loan made with the unanimous approval of the finance committee of $1,600,000 to the Northern New York Development com pany. This particular loan was guar anteed by the Delaware and Hudson company and was secured by first mortgage bonds of the Hudson Valley Railroad company having a par value or $l9200O0. At the time the loan was made, the net earnings of the Hud- son Valley Railroad company largely exceeded the interest on those bonds. It Is difficult to conceive of a safer or more suitable investment Concerning the statement made by MT. Fleming that in 1904 and prior thereto, the accounting officers of the Mutual Life Insurance company had omitted to report certain profits made during the year by the sale of securi- ties, President Peabody states that the custom had grown up of disregarding those profits on the ground that they were offset by the depreciation in real estate. MT. Peabody, in concluding, says:
 With the controversy now pending as to wh ether or not MT. Kelsey sh ould be retained in office, this company has no concern, but in view of the in- justice that has been done to it in the course of the controversy, I feel im- pelled to protest against the use which has been made of insinuation and with no specific charge, against the trans actions of the company

 Troops.
DOUMA APPROVES HEARTILY

St. Petersburg, February S.-The Russo Turkish relations have entered upon a menacing phase. Alarmed at the un- checked Turkish penetration of Bersia and mobilization in Armenia the Rus sian government has decided to execute formidable military demonstration in reply on the Turko-Persia frontier dis patching there a compact expedition of 60,O00 selected troops from Russia with full war equipment and Is acting with uncommon rapidity with a view to over awe the Turks by decisive expedition of force.
 The war office has drawn up plans of the expedition and submitted them [ hurriedly for legislative enactment to the Douma Friday. The committee on national defense assembled in virtually a closed session. A report of the war office briefly and impressively outlined the Turkish preparations on which Rus sia is fully informer and asked for an open credit for the maintenance of an army of 60,000. He met the possible argument of economy by saying that Russia expended blood treasure in Man churia in vain owing to the initial back wardness in armament. The empire s prestige in the middle east, he said, is now also in the balance and Russia must be prepared to defend 1t.
 M. Guckeff, leader of the octoberist party in a speech said that the majority in the Douma were Russoan patriots and willing, to part with their Hast shirt to defend the fatherland.
 The committee in high pitch of patri- otism passed the appropriation unan- imously.

Washington, February S.-Secretary Taft today ordered that none but Americans shall be put on the "gold rolls' of the isthmian canal commission. The effect of this order will be that skilled labor on the isthmus hereafter will be American cit izens. Such foreigners as may be among those now so employed, and whose num- bers include a dozen or more nationali- ties, will not be disturbed; but as fast as any vacancies occur these will be filled by Americans. The order Is the outcome of representations made to the secretary by American machinists, who objected to the employment in responsible places at good salaries of citizens of foreign coun- tries.
