Crank Calls Roosevelt a Liar.

A rough, dirty looking man. wear
ing a battered derby hat, and with a
two days growth of beard on his face,
lammed his way through the crowd at
Island park, at Fargo n. D.. where
Mr.. Roosevelt spoke. and demanded
an audience.
It was just at the conclusion Of the
coloneps speech to the laboring men
Of the west On the platform from
which Mr.. Roosevelt had spoken were
fully 1900 persons. They didn't know
what it all meant

thinking that the stranger was a la
boring man who wished to make him
self clear on some point in the ad-
dress, asked him what he wanted
Who is paying for this trip of
yours? the stranger cried.
Who's paying for it?"
The colonel was very angry then.
and he glared iercely
That is a very impertinent ques-
ton replied Mr.. Roosevelt. "I don't
mind telling you, however, that the
Outlook Magazine, with which l am

The rough intruder stepped closer |
to Mr.. Roosevelt. while the crowd
stood and gasped. There were no po-
.icemen near.
ITS lie; tell you a lie, the man
shouted. The nation is paying for it,
The country is doing it,"
The colonel saw in a flash that the
nan was a socialist and probably a
lemented socialist He rushed towards

Jury Frees Lee Browne.

Lee ONeil Browne, charged with
bribery in connection with the election
of William Lorimer to the United
States senate, was found not guilty by
a jury in the criminal court at Chi
cagO. This was Browns second trial
This termination of a case that has
stirred the entire state and has at
tracted nationwide attention was all
the more sensational because of for
mer President Roosevelt's refusal to
attend the banquet of the Hamilton
club in his honor if Senator Lorimer
was to be present
The verdict was a surprise to the
many who had watched the progress
of the second trial and had feared
that a repetition Of the tedious dellb-
erations of the first jury, which was
out lis hours, would close the case.

T. R. WON'T Dine
WITH LORIMER
Wouldn't Attend Banquet Unless
Senator Was Excluded.
CLUB WITHDRAWS INVITATION

Former President Refuses to Associate
With Men Accused of Election 5rib-
cry In Illinois.
Mr.. Roosevelt didn't mince matters
in his speech before the Hamilton
club, of Chicago. He hit out straight
from the shoulder and told the men Of
Illinois that the four men who have
been indicted for bribing the legisla-
ture and the four who have confessed
have committed a most infamous trea-
son against American institutions.
The colonel told Chicago that they
ought to be ashamed to allow men Of
corrupt leanings to represent them in
the legislature He said that any sane
minded man who had read the reports
of the two district attorneys engaged
in the Lorimer case could arrice al
only one conclusion. He die =, men
ton names, but he made him . Il clear
on every point.
One OF the important points that
/ Colonel Roosevelt brought out was the
/ fact that it is not necessary to convict
man in court of law to be able to
drive him out OF public life
Law honesty isn't the only thing, he /
said. Ii you know he is crooked cinch I
him. The people have power in cleo /
tive Offices. he declared The admin I
istrative heads have the power Of re- (
mOval from appointiye offices.
Mr. Roosevelt refused to sit at the
same table with Lorimer AS soon as
he heard that the Illinois senator, who
has been in the limelight concerning
bribery charges Of his election, was
scheduled to appear at the Hamilton
club dinner Mr.. Roosevelt angrily de-
clared that in that case he wouldn't
attend. He was very emphatic in his
declarations, too.
Members Of the Hamilton club tried
to dissuade Mr. Roosevelt from nasty /
judgment. A large crowd pricked UP
their ears in order to catch every {
word. The colonel talked sufficiently
loud for every one to hear He had
made up his mind and nothing on {
earth could change it. he said
Judge John H. Batten told Mr.
Roosevelt that he would ask Senator S
Lorimer to withdraw. but the colonel
would hear of no such thing. He in
sisted that Lorimer be informed that I
had refused to associate
publicly with him and there wasn't b
room for the two of them at the din j,
ner. He could do that or leave the
colonel out Of it. Fl
After a conference that was mighty Il
brief. the Chicagoans decided to send h
this message to Senator LOrimer: d
Colonel Roosevelt positively declines o.
% sit at the same table with you Our
invitation to you is therefore with.
irawn."
The colonel was satisfied when he

The Mails subscribers should
be sure to vote for Judge Alex

Judge Carter took the Office
when the county farm was a dis

made it one of the best in the
State. If we give him another
term of four years he says he can
make it self supporting. We
ought to let him do it.

The AuXvaSSe Review never
rang out truer words than the fol-
lowing: owe believe the time is
here when the country schools
should be brought up to a higher
state of efficiency. Rural high
schools so situated that the pupils
from four districts can attend
them should be introduced where
ever possible. When a boy or girl
is compelled to go to the county
seat town for a high school edu-
cation 1t is an open invitation for
them to become disrleased with
country life, and the sooner this
state Of affairs is remedied thu
sooner the drift to the cities will
be arrested. Instruction in cuqln.
try schools should be so efficient
that boys and girls can step direct
from the rural high school int
the freshmanyear of any high elias,
collegiate institution, and wlier
this becomes possible the percen
tage Of those who acquire col
lege education will be doublec

To an American who is accustomed
TO select plows that win at plowing
contests because of doing the best
work with the lightest draft, these un-
calmly roofing machines look behind
the times But when you come to
think of it,, you begin to realize that
the most scientifically constructed
plow as to draft may do the most un-
scientific work, you begin to think
our American plows are not plowing
at all, but instead are just turning a
furrow of earth upside down with
hardly a break in it, The soil hardly
knows that anything has happened to
disturb it, Is this plowing? ask you
young gentlemen, to think this ques-
ton over carefully and perhaps you
