had derived from the use of Doan' s

their testimonials. They say time
has completed the test.

THE HoLDuP.

No item OF news since the creation
OF The World has caused quite so much
comment in the city as did the expose
OF the methods used by J. NJ. Kelly in
holding up the 500 road and practically
preventing their entrance into this city.
weak, half hearted response to our
article was attempted by the Journal
with the publication Of some CORE
spondcnce dated last year and showing
beyond any question of doubt why the
yards over which there has been so
much discussion were built Since then
the Kelly and Kerlin gang have been
securing aftidavits and letters galore
showing that it was the poor crops and
not the hold-up methods of Mr.. Kelly
that prevented the 500 from entering.
We have no doubt but what these can
be secured. We have no doubt but
what even a letter from the 500 road
might be secured to that effect as it
would indeed be poor policy for them to
interfere with any possible settlement
that will undoubtedly be offered to
them now that the unlocked for light
OF publicity has been east upon the
"booster 81 methods. The World
learns from good authority that it may
be mistaken about the prices quoted
on the property owned by the Sisters
of Mercy and wishes to assure it's
readers that at no time was any re
Election cast upon that order. We un-
derstood that an option had been giVen
and then revoked but we find it isSp0s-
sihle that the first option was given on
another proposed right of way.
At all events some developments are
expected within the next week or two
and another series Of correspondence
is being prepared to show that Kelly had
only the best interests of Devils Lake
at heart when he hurriedly threw his
yards across a city street and across
the only available entrance that he
knew would do for the 500 and then
wanted 100000 for the right to cross.
Some day, during real "busy sea-
son,'' it might be interesting to count
the ears handled in these yards and
see if they approached from "seventy-
five to one hundred cars day. Tt is
to laugh.

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE
WHILE DEsPONDENr
Otto ohlin Ended His Life at Lonely
Spot on Public Road Near Lankin.

Lankin, N. D., April 3.-Otto Oklin,
a recent arrival from the Minnesota
woods, committed suicide near IIaukin
by cutting his throat and wrists with
a piece of glass from bottle, which
wounds caused his death.
The place which the suicide close
to end his existence was a spot on the
public road two miles south Of y.ankin
His body was found partly submerged
in water in the roadside ditch, where he
had apparently crawled in his last az.
onies. Nearby was sharp piece Of
glass which bore the gruesome evidence
Of it's recent use.
The body was brought to Lankin and
Coroner Dave Pohnson summoned to
hold an inquest. At the hearing il
developed that the deceased hail ber,,
excess vely addicted to the use of liouo,
since his arrival in Lankin and he'd at
times acted a little 4.queer.'' The yer.
dict of the jury was that he came to
his death by his own hand in fit OF
dependency.
No relatives of the deceased could b.
located. He was about 80 years -
age, and last fall had worked on the
Drake farm near Lankin, leaving 70,
the lumber camps in the fall.

SITUATION NOT ALARMING.

The World sees no cause for the
connection that is being raised in some
parts Of the city over the election OF
three Socialists to the City Council
Though their politics are in some par
ticulars dangerous, though radicalism is
liable to appear in their actions if they
follow out their party platform, yet as
men and citizens the Socialists are or.
dinarily as good material for the well
fare of the city as could be selected.
They are primarily in favor of por
ular representation, they are not in
favor of rule by special interests ~
they are strong advocates Of municipal
ownership.
If the local men who have been clert-
ed as aldermen show tendency to
force their politics too strongly in the
affairs of the city they must rra37
the fate that is in store for them. In
Minot, where two years ago Arthur
LeSueur was elected President of the
Board of City Commissioners on nom
political platform he was repudiated at
the last election, not because he had
neglected the work of the administra-
ton but because he had forced Social
ism into his administration of the city s
affairs In Milwaukee, the town to
which all Socialists look with anxious
eye the administration was turned
down by the people, while in several
Montana towns and many in this state
Socialists were elected to office for the
first time in the history OF the munich
pality,
The result simply shows organza-
ton. The Socialists have organized
into party that cannot be split by
opposing tickets, nor can any compro-
mise be effected with them. They be-
lieve their theories are right and event
portunity to test them out with the
same result that has been reached by
other experimental administrations but
simply because two or three may have
been placed in aldermanic chairs there
is no need to fear that a division of
property will be necessary.

murders in the history of the state,
the perpetrator of the dastardly
deed making good his escape after
taking the lives Of five members of

crime, as nearly as we could got

on farm a few miles south of

SAUNDERS, an unknown man, armed

near their residence, and as each
emerged thru the open doorway
shot them down in cold blood and
not content with taking the lives
of the parents, he entered this
home, secured the younger mem
bers of the family and beat their

state, and the man was alert ear

Anything that savors of fairness in
the Cowan impeachment trial seems to
worry the Grand Forks Herald and the
Devils Lake Journal. These two papers
seem to want conviction before the
evidence is given. Like the old judge
in the south they would convict on
general principles and then hear the
testimony afterwards. They seem to
have their ear to the ground listening
all the time to see if they can't hear
something to roar about. They seem tc
think this is about the time to pay of
political debt. However, we pre-.
sumo that the senate will be able tc
listen to the evidence and render ?
verdict in accordance without the aid
of these two democratic papers.-Ed

have been cast at the five men that

appeal to the parents of the city and it

note how many are published.

the candidates and no particular issues
were at stake. Without any exception
every man who was elected is against
the mulching Of the city by private
interests and corporations, as has been
