BREWSTER WILL Be
REBUILT
LITTLE CITY UP THE RIVER
WILL RISE FROM THE ASHES
ONE BUILDING TO COST
$4,000.

At meeting of the citizens of our
little city in the Hotel Gamble Of
flee Tuesday afternoon it was decided
to put up large stone and concrete
building, says the Brewster Herald.
A stock company was formed and
a committee appointed to have plans
and specifications drawn to secure
bide from contractors for the con-
struction of the block. The building
as proposed will be two stories with
full basement, of stone ana cement
brick front, an absolutely fire proof
building 200 feet long by so feet
deed. 1t is roughly estimated that
the cost of such a building will be
about $4,000.
The following have subscribed for
stock in the enterprise: A. c. Gill
lespie & Son, ]. F. Courtway, Smith
& Moore, w. NJ. Boggs & Son, c. r.
Mckinley, d. l.. Gillespie, d. s. Gam
BILE, ]. w. Gessler Leventon & Saw
yer, ]. E. Bassett, A. Anderson and
E. r. Tyler.
The building bewhen completed
will be occupied by the following
business:
A. C.. Gillespie & Son, post office
and drug store, meat market, Leven-
ton & Sawyer. Brewster Hardware
company, w. NJ. BOggs & Son, Brews-
ter Herald and Smith & Moore. This
will leave the entire upper story for
Office rooms, lodge AMI opera house
$4,000 of the required amount
has already been raised in cash and
as soon as satisfactory bids upon the
construction work have been received
work will be pushed to an early COM
pletion.
1t is a good move and a thoroughly
safe one. The people of Brewster
are getting tired of burning out and
do not intend to go through the ex-
perience again if fire-proof building
will prevent it.
Work will no doubt commence on
the excavating for the basement as
soon as insurance adjusters have al
lowed claims, which will be in a very
short time.

vote against, any one of which is
good enough to sway your vote. I
will enumerate six: First, because
prohibition has always failed wher-
ever is has been tried. (Applause).
Second, because for the evils of the
liquor traffic there is a much better
and more adequate remedy than pro-
hibition. Third, because prohibition
is unAmerican and contrary to the
Declaration of independence. Cap
plause). Fourth, because it breeds
hypocrisy and crime. (Applause).
Fifth, because it destroys property
honestly acquired without due pro-
cess of law Sixth, because it de-
prives the government, national,
state and city, of revenue which is
necessary to carry on the great work
that lies before. (Applause).
Now we will take these six Ques-
tions up in order. l don't like to
use notes in speaking upon these is
sues, but I have found, after a num-
ber of years experience on the polit-
ical platform, that it is wise to have
notes when you are fighting certain
classes of enemies, because they do
not always tell the truth as to what
you say, and when you have your
notes you can always tell exactly
what you have said The first prop
osition, Prohibition has always failed
wherever tried This is a broad as
sertion, but l expect to substantiate
it upon this platform tonight. This
is not a new wave This wave of
prohibition that is now seeking to en-
gulf us here in the state of Washing
ton is nothing new, it is not 1909
fad, or, as they would say in auto
mobile parlance, 1909 model; it is
old, this same battle was thrashed
out years ago and before was born;
before the Civil war of 1860 when
there were but thirty-seven states,
II of them were absolutely pro-
hibition: Maine, Vermont, Connec-
ticut, Rhode Island, New YORK, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ohio,
Michigan, Iowa, Kansas, were all
prohibition from one end to the
other, and how many of those same
states are prohibition today, and have
remained so ever since? Two, Maine
and Kansas. Ohio had a prohibition
constitution, prohibition was made a
constitutional provision in that state
and it has always remained so. The
statutes of Ohio say today and have
always said, since 1860, that no Ii
quor license shall be issued in the
state; but they have been issuing
them since 1860, not as liquor
licenses, but as taxes for selling IL
quor.
''They began to be hypocrites in
Ohio away back there and have been
those same hypocrites ever since; the
same prohibition statutes are there
today the same as in 1860, and it has
enacted one law after another to per-
NIT the sale of liquor in the state, Of
Ohio, because they found out in the
early history they could not stop it,
and the blind-pigging and bootleg
ging was worse than the legalizing
Of the traffic in some way. We all
know what has been the history of
Maine and Kansas. 1t is positively
laughable when we study the results
of prohibition in those states. The
first time l ever had personal exper-
ience with the prohibition laws of
Maine was during the year 1902,
when l went to Portland to try a law

Seattle addressed a large audience
last night in the Elk hall on the sub
ject of local option, taking the view
that such prohibition as comes from
this law is a menace to the free in
stitutions of this nation.
Judge Cornell was introduced by
Ira Thomas and said as follows:
Tonight is the close of a cam
paign Of much Importance in this
city. When I was invited to come
here / hesitated some time before ac
cepting that invitation. In the first
place I was suffering from terrible
cold, as you will observe from my
voice; but in the second place, and
the more important one, because /
felt that it was not right perhaps
for one of Seattle to come to Wenat-
chez to discuss a question of this
character before you; but when l was
advised that the other side had in
vited gentlemen from Seattle to come
here and speak to you upon this ques-
ton, had no further hesitancy about
accepting the invitation. And l am
here, and / am glad that / am here
and am proud to be here in the ad-
vocacy of a cause which l advocate
tonight. I have nothing to apologize
for in appearing before an audience
of American citizens in defense of
the cause of liberty. (Applause).
Tomorrow's battle will have it's
heroes, it's heroes in civil life. Hero
ism of everyday life is just as great,
just as magnificent, just as self-sac-
rificing as the heroism of the battle
field.
1--WE are oftentimes called upon
in the daily routine to take risks
which are just as great as the risks
of the battlefield, of life and death
upon the battlefield; and those risks
some of you men will have to take
tomorrow, the risk of villification,
which will brand you as heroes when
you have won the fight, as in my
judgment you will win by this time
tomorrow night. (Applause.)
"It has always taken courage to
fight the battle of liberty; liberty was
never won in this country without
sacrifice, without bloodshed, without
loss, and it never will be; and the
battle tomorrow will carry with it its
sacrifices, and yet they are worthily
bestowed. Tonight I would speak
upon this subject plainly, frankly.
honestly, and I hope without de-
scending to mud-slinging, without de-
scending to vilify any of our aiver-
saries' names, or calling them names
they ought not to be called, or of CIV
ing illustrations that are not fair, or
making representations that are false.
"An issue of this character, sit
uation of this kind reminds me of the
story of the little girl who came into
the courtroom to apologize for her
fathers not appearing as juryman.
When her fathers name was called
she arose and said to the judge. II

can not be here" why can't he be
here, little girl7" There are three
reasons, your honor; one of them is
that he is dead, and another reason
is -" "Never mind, little girf,"
the court said, never mind the other
two"
"Now, there are many reasons
why, in answering this question
which will be up to you tomorrow,
and the answer is this: Shall you
vote for or against prohibition? There

SHORT Sketch OF
MADAM SEMBR|CH

Valley City, Dec. MADAME Sem
brich said yesterday that it had been
the happiest day she had spent on
her tour. The weather. she has en-
countered has been very bad and she
was delighted when she stepped
fro mthe sleeper to find the air so
bracing and cle,T. Nine. Sembrich is
a great pedestrian and Yesterday she
took two long walks. In the morn
ing, accompanied by President Nc
Farland and her manager, she Wis
tied the Normal school and expressed
great pleasure at the prospect of
singing in the beautiful auditorium.
In the afternoon she walked out
Fifth avenue to the high line to get
the view of the city.
Nine Sembrich's first appearance
before any audience occurred many
years ago in little church in place
about the size of Valley City. She
was only IA years old and one Sunday
morning, at the request Of the organ
list (who had heard her sing in her
own home) She stole quietly into the
organ loft and during the offertory
sang solo. To hear such wonder
full voice in this little church caused
great surprise among the congrega-
ton and at the close of the service
everyone fastened to find the singer,
but she had flown. Many years later,
after winning the greatest success
ever had by a young singer, she re-
turned to this little church and again
sang for them. At this time she was
one of the great prima donnas of the
world. Yesterday when passing All
Saints church it reminded her Of the
little church in far off Poland, and
she was greatly interested in the chill
dren. Had a regular service been in
progress it is more than likely that
the congregation would have heard
the greatest living soprano.

county was the first county in the
state to send in her full apportion-
ment of the battleship silver service
fund. Now Rolette and Stark come
in as close seconds and in each in
stance their subscription lists run
considerably over the apportionment
made by the silver service committee
for them to raise. A number Of
other counties are coming we'll to the
front, among them Williams, Nc
Kenzie and Mountrail. John Brueg-
ger, of Williston, sent in check for
$12S.25 a few days ago as part of the
apportionment of Williams county,
with the promise the rest would be in
shortly. Grand Forks and Cass coun-
ties are we'll to the front, and will
have no trouble in showing up their
full apportionment when it is need.
ed
Walsh county is coming in little
slow, as are few of the other coun'
ties, but undoubtedly they will have
their sums ready when needed.
The secretary urges those in charge
of the different county apportionment
to send in all they have at as early
date as possible. In a few days
meeting will be called of the commit
tee, to place the order for the SER
vice, and it is quite imperative they
are given a fair idea of what has been
raised, and what effort it will take to
to raise anything that falls short.
Judging from lists published in diff
ferent state exchanges, the secretary
believes two-thirds or over of the
fund has already been raised and will
be sent in shortly.
The people are very liberal in re-
gard to the subscriptions and in in
stances seem anxious to give more
than the usual $1.O0 that is being sub
scribed. The committee have been
anxious that as many citizens of the
state as possible have the privilege
of subscribing and have advocated
the sum of $1.O0 or less in every in
stance While many are perfectly
willing to give, there are only few
who voluntarily bring in their sub
scriptions. There is great deal OF
work in just the clerical part of TAX
ing care of all these subscriptions
and much assistance would be given
if those who care to give would
bring or send in their checks to the
secretary or to any of the members
of the soliciting committees In the
dierent counties where they belong.

OPTICAL OPERATION
PROVES A SUCCESS

Philadelphia, Nov. 30.-(Specia)-
An operation performed only a few
times by the greatest eye specialist
of the world was successfully COM
pleted in hospital clinic on Friday
before the senior class of the Medico-
Chirurgical college by DR.. L. w. Web
ster Fox, who occupies the chair of
ophthalmology in the college.
BY the use of six needles, India ink
and a vegetable dye, the doctor sue
ceeded in tattooing the perfect sem
blance of an eye on girls blind eye
ball, which was covered by an ugly
white blemish the size of a five-cent
piece.
The girl asked DR.. Fox to put a
glass eye in place of the diseased
tissues, which made her face repul-
sive. The doctor, upon examination,
found that the growth over the cor

LOOKS FOR SPOUSE

Spokane, Wash, Nov. 3O.-Deeds
for a half interest in city and coun'
try property, appraised at $3.50, 1000,
will be presented on her wedding day
to the woman selected as wife by
William B. Niedermeyer, wealthy
widower, with Offices at 528 Rookery
building, Spokane, He was born in
Newark, N. j., January 21, 1851, NOV
ed to Nebraska in 1869 and came to
Spokane in 1898. He wears full
beard and boasts that his face has
never felt the edge of razor.
Niedermeyer believes in advertis-
ing and he is using that means to
find a life-partner. Regarding the
qualifications of the bride-to-be he
says among other things:
1.-The woman I marry must be a
member of the Catholic church and
good Christian; age not to exceed 50
years. She ought to have at least
as much money as I possess, though
the financial standing Of the appll-
cant does not mean as much to me
as the term might suggest. Perhaps
T will choose a woman who hasn't
change of clothing, or I may get one
who has $3.50, 900 or a good portion
of it.
IT have four children, but they are
all we'll cared for, and they have
nothing to say as to what I shall DO.
7 run my own business. I gave them
each an equal amount of my prop
ertv before I left Nebraska, and
have made what I own today since
coming to Spokane, II years ago.
"I expect to start on a tour or the
world next spring, and, as l have
plenty of money, it will be much
more pleasant to have good company
am pretty hard to please for an
old fellow, but dashlng woo"
stands as much chance as a young
woman with real blonde hair and
pink cheeks, even though she has not
a penny to her name.
