will not soon forget. He was going

no signal placed there that the road
was dangerous and before the machine
could be stopped 1t had gone over the

BILE OF eight feet. The occupants of

as to knock him unconscious and it
was some time before he could be
brought to- He was finally brought
around all right bur viii be out of

injuries he received.

gence to leave the approach to the
broken bridge without some warning
Of the danger to be encountered at
that point.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas

suit ID the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-

food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as 1t
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest Of
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company

81 delegation at washington. but at
thiS point the Ferris or Heath faction
filed charges against Brinton's char
acter with the postoffice department,
and his appointment was held UP
while an Inspector went to Beach TO
look the matter up The inspectors
report indicated Brinton who was
appointed, the appointment confirmed,
and ne took charge Of the office.
1t was predicted that this would
settle the trouble, but II now seems
that it was only the cause of more.
AT least, things seem to be getting
hotter there since Brinton became
postmaster. His contemporary, The
Beach Advance. made some anti Brin-
ton comment on the appointment
which renewed the war between the
two papers, Later, a farmer, Mr..
Stockwell. entered the newspaper
fight as champion of the Ferris fac
tion. and published an open letter"
in The Beach Advance to Mr.. Brin-
ton. which was OF very personal ma
ture. This was answered by The
Chronicle editor in a still more per-
sonal strain. which lead up to fistic
encounter on the street between
Stockwell and Brinton. The latter
seems to have got the best of the
physical argument, and now Stock
well. and mis- hackers, have resorted
to the courts. and Brinton is held to
the district court, under bonds, on
two charges, that of criminal libeF'
and assault with intent to kill" on
top Of this Brinton is sued for $780,
600 damages. Stockwell wants $4,000
for personal injuries, and another
party, who had Brinton arrested for
libel wants $4,000 for damage to his
character.
Brinton threatens to retaliate by
bringing criminal and civil actions
against his prosecutors, and the fight
goes merrily on, while Beach gets the
advertising, whether it be good or
bad.
At any rate, no one denies but what
Beach will be a lively town next
spring when the primary campaign
opens.

The little lad was standing on the de-

form, where he was asked to write
where he came from and what his
name was, and whether he had any
relatives here. He gave his name and
said he was from Hankinson, N. D., but
to the latter question he answered in
the negative. Finally he was asked IL
he had any papers in his pocket and
written on a little piece of yellow
scrap paper was Instructions to the

DOVE OF PEACE
NEEDED AT BEACH
LITTLE TOWN SPLIT WIDE OPEN
WITH BITTER FRACTIONAL
FIGHT GROWING OUT
Ell or POLITICS.

Medora, N. D., Sept. 1.-THE fued.
which started at Beach during the last
campaign, is apparently going to be
kept up indefinitely. Recent develop
ments In that prosperous little city
give evidence that the dove of peace
is sadly needed there.
During the last campaign Beach
split politically. The principal fight
was on the state senatorship, between
j A. Ferris, OF Medora, and A. l..
Martin, of Sentinel Butte. Ferris
expected and In fact, wes promised
the support Of Beach About the time
the candidates announced themselves.
J. W. Brinton purchased The Beach
Chronicle, at that time the only paper
at Beach, which was to have support
ed Ferris, but under the new owner
ship threw it's support TO A. l.. Mar
tin. This was an unexpected move,
and one night later, in the absence of
the new proprietor, The Chronicle
once was taken possession of by a
number of Ferris supporters, who
claimed the deal was not a bona fide
one After an all night dispute, in
which AL the lawyers and citizens Of
the town, as well as the sheriff and
his deputies, took part, the newspa-
per was again turned over to Editor
Brinton. This trouble resulted in Fer
ris and his supporters starting another
paper. The Beach Advance, Wnen the
votes were counted, after heated
newspaper war and campaign, II was
found that the Ferris faction were. or
had been, unable to deliver the votes.
and Martin was elected. This was the
cause of much soreness and bitter
feeling among the losing faction.
The PostoFfiee Appointment.
The next disturbance was the post
Office appointment. Beach had been
rapidly growing into a thriving town
and the postofflce had been raised to
o third class office at a salary of
$1,000 per year. To start the ball roll
ing, Editor Brinton became a candi-
date for the Office and had the sup
port OF the winning faction, while F.
r. Heath, a Ferris supporter, was a
candidate for re-appointment and had
the support OF the Ferris faction. In
the meantime Brinton secured the
support OF the u. S. senator's and con-
gressmen and the republican central
committee, but Ferris taking advan-
tage of the fact that he hunted buff
falo with President Roosevelt some
twenty odd years ago, recommended
Heath, whom Roosevelt appointed. II
is not supposed for a moment that
Ferris informed Roosevelt that Brinton
had worked agaist him in the senator
ial campaign and help in his defeat
and that revenge was sweet. The ap-
continent of Heath was held up in
n.
of Office. Shortly after President Taft
went into office Brinton's appointment
was recommended by the congression-
