State Superintendent stockwell Calls
the Attention Of the Teachers Of
North Dakota to the Work Done
by Representative Streeter for tho
Teacherss Wages BAH.

To the Teachers of North Dakota:
The provision establishing mini
mum wage of $45 for teachers holding
second-grade certificates has passed
both houses This bill met with bitter OPP
position in the house of representa-
tives OH the plea of class legisla-
.tion,'' lack of qualification for and
interest in the work on the part of
the teachers" the plea that teachers
are getting all they are worth now, !"
and other similar arguments.
We have supreme faith that you
will prove to the people of the state
that you are worthy of a living wage.
We trust you will redouble your eff
forts for the children of North Da-
kota. We hope you will be stimulat-
ed to improve your qualifications. To
those of you who are holding third
grade certificates there is large in
centive to raise the standard OF your
qualifications and we know you will
embrace every opportunity to do so.
This provision will not go into effect
until July 1, 1905, and will not affect
contracts made prior to that date.
In closing we wish to state that the
strong plea for the provision was
made by an old soldier and an editor,
Hon. ID. R. Streeter of Linton. We
hope some of you, at least, will take
occasion to express your appreciation
of his efforts. Cordially yours,
w. L. STOCKWELL.

Editor Wood, Of the Steele Ozone,
Has Kind Words for the Emmous
County representative.

Steele Ozone, Feb. II, '05: 1t is
learned that Representative Streeter.
of this district, who is the Emmons
county house member, fills his post
with marked ability, which is not a
surprise to those of us who know him.
When Editor Streeter gets up to ad-
dress the house, we are informed by
those who are impartial, he has the
close attention of all the members,
among whom are some excellent
speakers who can get close to any
subject they have in hand. Mr..
Streeter stands second to none In
this matter, and is said to handle any
question he takes UP in manner
which commands the respect and at
tention of all. His argument on life
membership of the Soldiers Home
board was acknowledged to be ex-
tremely calm and able, and is cred
tied with having defeated a measure
which had many supporters.

While Mr.. Herolx is sending
out circulars denying things" after
the Record had gone to press why

Record editor-and which he stands
ready to prove
First, that Immediately after the
primary election you said: "Streeter
made a clean campaign" And. again.
regarding the futile circular: II
don't approve Of that circular. 1t
was dirty politics.
And yet you have not denied that
you procured that circular.
Second. You do not deny that you
have been defender Of the bridge

Third. You do not deny that you
used the county's currency in cashing
wheat checks.
Fourth. You do not deny that you
secured your republican nomination
chiefly through the efforts Of p. C.
Rocks. chairman Of the democratic
county committee.
Fifth. You do not deny-you admit
loaning some hundreds Of dollars Of the
county's money.
Sixth. You do not deny that when
the states attorney. during the panic Of
year ago. accused you Of loanint the
county's money and told you il was en-
bezzlemcnt. you did not contradict him.
Seventh. You do not deny that you
have failed to inform the county board
that for more than year the average
amount of money in bank At 9 per cent
has been nearly ten thousand dollars
all Of which above 81 100 should have
been loaned At per cent and taxes re-
duced so that surplus above $l.iOO

have sought support from some voters
as resubmissionist. while you have
led others to believe that you are the
opposite.
Tenth. You have not denied that you

discussions. and let the people we wish

Their Plan Went lame.

The Patterson. Herolz- Rocks combi-
nation are telling the voters that
Streeter is democrat, because the
latter received enough of a scattering
democratic vote at the primaries to
place his name on the ticket. Mr..
Rocks was out through the county
working for Herolz during that cam
paign, as he works for him in every
campaign, although Mr.. Rocks is the
chairman OF the democratic county
committee. He had seen to IL that
there was vacancy on the democratic
legislative ticket from this county, so
that he could more easily get Ger
man democratic votes for Mr.. Hayes,
the democratic nominee, and for MI.
HerUlz.
The Rocks. Herolz's plan went lame,
however.
Under the law, where there are two
or more offices of the same kind, and
two or more candidates for such Of
ices, the two highest are the nomi-
nees.
Streeter received but IL democratic
votes ID both counties Of the district.
Mr.. Hayes. Of kldder county, tlas
regular democratic nominee. received
moro than $50; 7o7 In Emmoas
county alone.

him Ct the primaries.

The zoos Leglslature Sized Up BY
On Editor Who Was There.

Editor George Weatherhead, of the
Kindred Tribune. bright younk
Cass county man who was present dur
ing the 1905 session of the Legislature, had
the following to say in his paper regard
ing the membership of that session:
THE ninth legislative session has
accomplished its work and adjourned.
In marked contrast to the close Of
some other legislatures, the session
closed with the best of good feeling
between the two houses, as was
shown when the senate returned the
call made by the house. Each body
cheered the other, and in every way
possible expressed kindly sentiment
for the other. AS body the personnel
of the late legislature averaged up
we'll with those which have gone be-
fore. 1t was a more sedate body Of
men than many of its predecessors,
and there was at all times tendency
to give earnest consideration to meas
ures before it. Individually the men,
bers were of high order of intelli-
gence and of capacity to safeguard
the interests of the state. No bad
legislation has been enacted. On the
other hand, many important bills de-
manded by the people have been put
upon the statute books. The state in
situations have been we'll cared for,
particularly those pertaining to edu-
cation; farmers Institutes have been
aided; the dairy interests cared for;
a good primary election law passed;
provision made for better illuminat-
ing oil. with reversion of the in
spectOr's fees to the state after next
year; reconstruction of the capitol
building on scale commensurate
with the needs OF a great state ar
ranged for; good irrigation law
passed. with provisions for prosecut-
ing the work; equal taxation OF rail-
roads and Of grain in elevators pro-
vided for; pure food and pure drugs
assured the people, and many other
meritorious measures passed. The
members will return to their constit-
uents with the consciousness of duty
we'll performed. Bismarck will miss
the genial legislators, but, in parting.
wishes them God-speed and prosper.

follows:
80 the bill passed and the title
was agreed to-
MIR. Regan moved
That the vote by which House
Bill No. Is passed be reconsidered.
Which motion prevailed.
Mr.. Regan moved
That further consideration of
House Bill No. Is go over until to-
morrow.
Which motion prevailed"
"To-morrow" was the last day Of the
session. and of course House Bill No. u
never came up again. II was too late.
And thus was the measure, after
passing both houses. assassinated.
II would have been saved had the
senator from this county done his duty.
We have given the vote on this
bill In detail for the reason that 1t
has been the practice OF the senator
from this district and his political
friends of the Armstrong Patterson
Herolz-Rooks combine to refer to the
writer as Corporation man." In
printing the above roll call and show
ing the exact course taken with the
bill in the Senate we wish TO show
First That Senator Mcdonald
failed to vote ON House Bill No. Is,
although he was as much In duty
bound to to support measure In
the interest of his Twenty-sixth dis
trict constituents as was the rcprcsen-
tative from the same district who pro-
cured the passage of the bill through
the House.
Second. That where bill passes
either House, 1t is usual to put what
Is known as 1.-The clincher motion,
which is motion Ito reconsider and
that the motion to reconsider be
laid upon the table" Had the senator
made that motion after the passage
OF the bill 1t could not have been
stabbed In the back" after 1t was
passed by being postponed to the
next day--which was the last day of
the session-when there was not one
chance in thousand of its again
being reached. And 1t was not
reached.
Third. 1t should be remarked that
the Senator Regain who assassinated
the bill by motion to reconsider
and another to postpone was and is
a warm personal friend of the SEN
ator from this county and district.
Senate Regan's motions killed Street
er's House Bill No. Is too dead to
skin" as the Senate Journal record,
given above, clearly shows.
Don't understand the writer as init
mating that Senator Macdonald was
what Representative Storey terms
'.kaarpration man." for both he and l
voted identically the same on EVERY
ONE of the bills which passed for the
regulation Of railroads. That wasn't
the trouble. The real cause Of the sena-
tor dumping his job" was that he didn't
want the man he SO greatly disliked
to receive the credit Of having House
Bill No. Is enacted into law.
Respectfully,
ID. II. STREETER.

Granting that Mr.. Campbell's indorse-

for the 1905 session, let us see what
another prominent former Emmons
county man thought Of our conduct
At the 1907 session, the session during
which Representative Storey, Of Kid
der county, sat beside US, and since
which he has been telling the Kidder
people that Streeter was "a corporation
man." Mr.. Worst WAS . neighbof Of
the writer for many years, AS we both
came to the county soon after 1t was
organized. He was the first county
superintendent of schools, and held
that office until be was elected to rep
resent the Kidder- Emmons (then
Joined with Mcintosh and Logan
district in the state senate. After
ward he was elected lieutenant COVER
ror. Then, = dozen or % years ago,
he was appointed by Governor Roger
Allin to the position Of president Of
the agricultural college, which he now
holds. He is an orator Of more than
statewide reputation, and probably
no public man In North Dakota has
fewer enemies. In . letter to the
editor Of the Record, dated Jan. 30,
last, the gentleman says:
II am proud Of my old friends in
Emmons county, and shall always be
at their service. sincerely hope that
you will have easy sailing back to the
legislative assembly. The state needs
few men able and willing to cham
pion laws that are for the best interests
Of the people and to nail to the cross
those that are introduced for special
or personal interests. +"
In another letter to the editor, un.
der date Of March IL, 1908. our old
friend and neighbor says:
II hope no one will succeed in In
terfering With your election to the
Legislature. I was y pretty close OBJ
server last winter, as we'll as at the
1905 session, and was not only delight
ed, but proud, OF your position on
about every public question that
came up, and your ability tocope with
those who we're In the wrong"
And yet Messrs. Herolz and Storey
say that although he voted
for ere,.v nseasss'e for the regula-
tion Of railroads. is . corporation
man.
Which leads US to remark that II
there is y ''closer corporation" in the
state than the illegal bridge building
board Of county commissioners of EN-.
mons county-eyery one Of whom is
for Herolz-we don't know where to
find such corporation.
