for Fickert at the polls with the eX-
ception of Morris Oppenheim of the
forty-second district who started the
movement to capture the democratic
nomination for Fickert and whose ac-
tivity was attributed to a college in
timacy with F,ickert. McNab declared
that the organization had decided early

district attorney fight and he expressed
the opinion that the returns indicated
that this policy had been strictly ad-
hered to.

District Attorney Langdon started yes

navy PROUD OF
NORTH DAKOTA
GREAT 5ATTLESHlP NAMED AF.
TER FLIcKERTAIL STATE
WILL HOLD SPEED REC
ORD FOR YEARS.

Washington, Nov. s.-Oficials Of the
navy department continue to manifest
the greatest interest in the magnifi-
cent performances Of the battleship
North Dakota on her trial trip. While
the American navy is not equal to the
British in numbers, it's quality is sec
ond to that of no navy IN the world
and the splendid showing of the North
Dakota has helped increase this quail
ity between us and the other naval
powers.
1t is pointed out in this connection
by naval officers That comparatively
few years ago battleships were not
built for speed, but wholly built for
speed, but wholly with reference to
concentrating the maximum Of missile
throwing power and simultaneously Of
short resistance Now, however, as
the North Dakota shows, the battle
ship is also an ocean greyhound. The
North Dakota in service, 1t is said
could inflict as heavy damage as any
other vessel afloat and outstrip any
antagonist either in pursuit or retreat
All the naval powers look upon speed
as Of the utmost Importance in the
heavy ships OF the navy. In the en-
counter of the ships of Japan and Rus
STA in the Strait of Tsushima, it is
said, victory was with the Japs largely
because Of their superior maneuvering
ability.
1t is predicted with absolute certain
ty that the North Dakota will not in
definitely be the fastest battleship
afloat Great Britain is now building
several ships of that type, and is maxi
ing special efforts to have them swift
The German 'dreadnaughts" are also
to be speedy. But the process of dis
tancing the present champion of the
seas will not be easy. Her engines of
the turbine type are the very best that
American ingenuity and skill can pro-
duce. with present processes. 1t may
be That the actual operations Of both
the Delaware and the North Dakota
at sea-they are sister ships-will lead
to improvements, and It is assumed Of
course that in the construction of the
ships now on the ways, advantage viii
be taken of every possible chance of
beneficial changes But 1t is certain
that for several years at least the
"flickertail state" will have the honor
of having given its name to the fast
est battleship ever built.

Notwithstanding the testimony to the
contrary given by the doctors who
made the autopsies and the expert ex-

DR.. Archary testified that Adolph
