Of the Chicago association OF COM

Well, I haven't thought much
about gum-chewing as it applies di-5
rectly to our association. We do not
employ many young women ,steno-
graphers. But II have observed that
the gum-cheWer is never as neat in
appearance as the one who does not
indulge in the habit. I might also
apply this to capability, for would
imagine that the person who is con-
stantly absorbed in moving his or

Republicans should aid the Demo-
Gratis to build UP a Democratic ma
chine. There Is every reason why
they should not.
1t Is not necessary to initiate the:
tactics of the emocratsSih this cam
paign and charge every opposition
candidate with dereliction of duty.
1t is not necessary to carry out a
campaign of attack and rssroach and
charge and counter-charge. 1t is on
ly necessary to point out to Republi-
cans that the party has selected a
clean, capable and square candidate
for governor at primary of his own
party, and that he stands upon a
good platform. He will be in sym
pathy and work in accord with the
members of the administration and
with the: legislature. From every
standpoint of party and state policy
he should be supported and there is
mo good reason why he should lose
the vote of any Republican in the
'1
1t is very natural that the Demo
Gratis of the state should make a
desperate struggle to perpetuate
themselves in office. The control of
the various state educational, penal
and charitable institutions would
pass to the Democrats if they should
succeed again in eleeting a candidate
for governor. It would mean to them
a, permanent and formidable Demo
cratic machine, to use in future pres
idential j, and state campaigns. And
| the Democrats OF, the state have no
strength themselves to build up such
a machine. 1t is for that reason that
they find so many reasons why
Republicans, out of piquqe, dissatis-
faction or disappointed ambition,
should support Democratic candi-
dates. But the Republican party of
the state is well united, and the
election will dispose of the preten-
tons of the Democratic party to the
control of the state of North Dako-
ia. '~

ACQUISITION
THE STATE THROUGH THE Eff
FORTS OF DELEGATION in con-
GREss GETS VILLAGE.

The most desirable ancient Indian;
cite has been secured for the State
Historical Society of North Dakota, by
land grants obtained from the United
States government for the purpose of
exchanging these lands granted for
the lands of private owners, on which
that Indian village was located.
The site is located north Of the old
Fort Lincoln site. It is the second
Mandan Indian village found, (aban-
doned 90 years before their expdi-
tion) by Lewis and Clark, who had
their fourth camp in North Dakota, ON
a knoll directly south of the village
site. The village is in a very good
State of preservation, and is rich in
an abundance of deposits containing
valuable relics of a time, previous TO
their contact with white people, ex-
cepf a very few like the De la Veren-
drye brothers, and maybe a few of the
French trappers.
e. r. Steinbrueck was the father of
the idea to secure this valuable vii
lage site,aand thought and act is one
with him. He went right to work to
catch hold OF a good thing before it
was too late. Vice President Jewell
OF Bismarck was the first to endorse
Mr. Steinbraleck's letter to Senator
Hansbrough in regard to the land
grant desired, and the five trustees
of the society followed. Governor
