An army Of 5000 or 10000 Atheni-
ans and 1000 Plataeans entirely de-
feated and drove back to their ships
Persian army of over 100000 men,
The Greeks were commanded by Mil
tiades, the Persians by Datis and Ar
taphernes, the latter being a nephew
of King Darius, who had sent this
great host for the conquest of Greece.
The battle has always been consider
ed one of the decisive events of his
tory, checking as it did for many years
the aggressive policy of Persia toward
Greece. It was the more important
because there was reason to believe
that some of the Greek tribes we're
ready to welcome the invaders. Mil
tiades buried 1872 of his men upon the
field, where a vast tumulus was aft
erward reared in their honor; the
Persian dead were 64OO. The City Of
Athens awaited the outcome in fever
ish excitement, and the story is told
that a soldier whose name is un-
known ran the whole distance from
the battlefield to the city to bear the
news of the victory, falling dead from
fatigue as the message left his lips.
Herodotus does not mention this
story, but the French historian Duruy
points out that Herodotus omitted
many incidents that have been of com
mon knowledge, handed down from
generation to generation. The Grecian
government accepts its truth and in
1896 established the Marathon race
over the old road on which the name
less hero ran, to perpetuate the
worlds admiration of his self-sacrific-
ing deed.

CIRCULATED" PRIZE
FIGHTING IN NEW YORK,
IN NEW YORK

Nv w" VIM
The scandalous happenings in and
around the Madison Square Garden
show that we are again in for an era
of prize fighting such as the decent
Ieople of this state ended with the
Horton law. The whole subterfuge of
a boxing commission to regulate" the
sport now appears for what it is
worth, and apparently the law is all
on the side of the fighters and their
hackers, who think they see millions
in it. The character of the contests
we are likely to have is apparent from
the unfair treatment, not to say swim
ding, of the crowds that attended. So
far as every sign goes, we shall quick
ly revert to the old condition of fake"
fights and all the other forms of swim
ding that marked the period before
the Horton law. Inspector McClusky
is reported as saying that it is already
the same old game" For this the re-
sponsibility is squarely on the shoui.

WE WON" WRITES MAINE DRY
Tells Judge Pollock Corrected Re-
turns Will Show Prohibition Victory

The prohibition cause won in
Maine There has been a great deal
of uncertain and contradictory infor-
nation regarding the late liquor fight
in Maine Judge Pollock of Fargo,
yesterday morning received letter
from Rev. Wilbur F. Berry, the su-
perintendent- of the Christian Civic
league of Maine, "a man in full touch
with the situation there and fully
qualified as an authority on the cleo
ton. -
Waterville, Me-, Sept. 25.-Judge
Charles A. Pollock, Fargo. N. D.: My
Dear Judge Pollock 49, The battle in
Maine is over and victory has been
won by the No side. When the re-
turns are corrected, constitutional
prohibition will be retained in Maine
by majority of 700 at least. Ger
tain errors crept into the returns
which have occasioned good deal OF
unrest and uneasiness throu ghout the
state and the nation. Clerks of GER
tain towns reversed in their official
report the vote given, giving NO vote
for Yes and the Yes vote for No
While the count was properly made
on the day of election and the rec.
ords properly recorded, the clerk il
sending in the official record tc the
governor and council and the secre'
tary of state, gave the Yes for the NJ
and the No for the Yes. This was
done in four towns.
1t is unfortunate that so large
number of our rural voters remained
at home on election day. At least
$4,000 of our voters who voted il
September, 1910, refrained from vot.
ing this September and at least IT,
600 of this number were in the ru.
raj sections of our state. Had they
come to the polls, doubtless the ma
iority for constitl tional prohibition
would have been from 10000 to 12,.
900.
AS it is. we have won decided vic
tory for everything that could be
done by the liquor forces was done
and they mustered the largest pos
sible number for their side. Very
truly yours.

his arrangement, also how he had

he declared was ordered "by high

was frequent reference to some sort
of an electrical machine which Jo-
hansen imagined was being used to
torture him.

committed to the hospital at Fergus

yesterday by Marshal L. J. Miles of

by the barb wire, Johansen's clothes

a detected looking character when
taken into probate court. In his torn
pockets was found more than $500.
He had a check for $500 and more
