congress-. Elmer Adams is little
afraid OF the same thing, since his
partner holds the postoffice under Mr..
Steenerson and has been doing little
boosting for Ole, announcing him as
progressive populist" and urging
him as republican candidate for the
nomination for congressman-at-larg
This has not entirely relieved Mr..
Steenerson of his fear that Ole may
cease to follow the plow and start in
on run for congress. Mr.. Sageng's
espousal of the cause of La Toilette
has given a new impetus to the fear he
feels, and it is said that the Crooks
ton man carries about with him ter
rible picture of Ole, plow and all,
trotting about the prairies of the
Ninth, gaining on the Steenerson
stride at every bound. Naturally,
this is disturbing, and the congress-
man is having troubles all along the
line. To add to them, State Senator
F. b. Peterson of Moorhead is show
ing signs along the same line, and it
is rumored that the A. D. Stephens
crowd at Crookston may take a hand
in any kind of an old game that will
set Halvor to practicing law and re-
lieve him of the onerous duties of
craftsmanship.

There have been various sug-
gestions of candidates for governor
and for -at-large recently.
The latest suggestion for both Offices
was that of Cyrus Northrop, president
emeritus of the university. The presi-
dent emeritus has declined both
honors. The governorship proffer
came in letter from E. A. Rice of
Kandiyohi, who has a grievance
against the governor because of a
failure to appoint one of his candi-
dates to position as oil inspector.
It was designed not only to take the
president emeritus out of the race for
congressman-at-large, but to aid in
encompassing the governors defeat, a
consummation sought by one and
sundry. The outs are having their
turn against the ins, and seem to be
enjoying the exercise. The latest sug-
gestion for governor, not taken seri.
ously, is Alvah Eastman. This is
also a bait to get Eastman out of the
race for congressman-at-large, which
W. I. Nolan and others hope to
attain.
G. A. Lindbergh has also taken to
writing letters recently. Mr.. Lind
bergh wrote to the Mortified News
that he could not be oblivious to the
high honor involved in the mention of
his name for the governorship and, if
the progressives sought to urge it and
keep urging it, he couldn't stop them.
No one appears to be trying to stop
them, in fact they seem to welcome the
intrusion of Mr.. Lindbergh and other
radicals they apparently believing
that the more men of that shade of be-
lief there are in the game the better
the situation will be for the governor.

The Whittier decision is expected
this week. It will probably exonerate
Whittier by a majority vote of Messrs.
Ringdal and Vasaly, and a minority

THOSE GONE BEYOND.
Ward, Son of Mr.. and rlrs. Clarence
Hill, Dies From Appendicitis
on Thursday, Nov. 9.
Obituary of rlrs. Trask, Sister of rlrs
Wesley Page, Who Died Re-
Gently at Monticello.

Ward Hill, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence E. Hill, aged 8 years, who
was in precarious condition at the
Northwestern hospital when the
Union went to press last week, died
that evening, November 9. The
disease (appendicitis) from which the
little fellow died had advanced to a
point when he was taken to the hospit-
al where no medical or surgical skill
could save his life.
Funeral services we're conducted by
Rev. E. B. Service at the Methodist
church on Saturday morning at 1O
and were largely attended, many
of the children of the Whittier school
and their teachers being among those
in attendance. The school was closed
out of respect to the little boy who
had been one of it's pupils. Rev.
Service delivered an impressive SER
mon and a quartet composed of Mrs.
G. A. Galley, Mrs. L. S. Briggs, Guy
Ewing and Arthur Roos rendered
vocal selections. Mrs. Ewing was the
accompanist. The casket in which
reposed the remains of the child was
covered with pretty flowers. Six
classmates of Ward s at the Whittier
school acted in the capacity of pail
bearers. The interment was in Oak
Knoll cemetery.
Ward Hill was a bright, good
natured little fellow and his taking
away was heavy blow to his parents,
brothers and sisters, with whom the
community sympathizes in their hour
of sorrow. A father, mother,
two brothers and three sisters survive
him.

business"
He then asked what his punish
ment would be if he turned states
evidence. The officer replied that
he did not know.
Attorney Job Hartman, of coun-
sci for Mcnamara brothers and
McManigal, has announced that all
the men Would plead not guilty.

ARRESTS
ORDERED IN The
LORIMER PROBING
ILLINOIS SENATE TAKES ACTION
IN CASE OF BANKERS WHO
SHOW DISRESPECT.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 28.-
Edward Tilden, Chicago packer, and
William c. Cummings and George
M. Benedict, president and cashier
of the Drovers Trust and Savings
bank of Chicago, were ordered ar
rested on contempt charge by the
Illinois senate last night. The vote
was 40 to Z.
This action was taken on recon-
mendation of the senate bribery
investigation committee, after Til
den Cummings and Benedict
through their lawyers had refused
to produce Tildens personal bank
accounts for May, June, July and
August, 1909.
The committee believes these
bank accounts will show evidence
of the use of money in the cleo
tion of William Lorimer to the
United States senate. Tilden had
submitted an affidavit before the
committee saying these accounts
show nothing directly or indirectly
bearing upon the election of Sen
ator Lorimer.
He also had offered, in a letter
to the committee, to allow one
member of the committee to go
to Chicago and examine these bank
accounts. Tilden made the express
stipulation that he should be allow
ed to designate the member.
The committee took the position.
in which it was sustained by the
senate, that it could not allow Til
den to dictate the conditions upon
which the bank accounts had been
Investigated.
The committee also insisted that
the subpoena served upon Tilden,
asking for the banking record, was
sufficiently specific and was not a
so-called 'dragnet'' subpoena, as
was contended by his counsel.
Lieutenant Governor John G.
! Oglesby, Immediately following the
adoption of the committee recon-
mendations, announced he would not
assume responsibility of issuing the
warrants for the arrest of the three
| Chicago men, Senator Helm then
placed the responsibility upon the
body of the senate in a motion di-
recting Lieutenant Governor Ogles-
| by to issue a warrant for the ar
rest of Tilden.
| When this motion had been
adopted, the senate adopted similar
motions in relation to Cummings
and Benedict
Warrants for the three men were
placed in the hands of e. Hat
field assistant sergeant-at-arms, and
he was directed to go Immediately
to Chicago tomorrow morning.
The senate order for the arres
of the men filled an entire day
of argument by counsel for boil
sides and debate by members be
fore the body of the senate.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Wal-

1t is probable that the return

will be postponed until Sunday,
May 14th. This action will be taken
owing to the fact that a nmber of
the members who wish to take the

the previous Sunday; incidentally
they will be busy getting ready
the payroll for May 10. This ar

it will give the Elks down below

Absolutely no definite arrangements

saying that all matters pertaining
to the defense of the international
secretary and his confederates are
in the hands of Indianapolis law
yers.
There is almost an infinity of
things to be done at once" said
Attorney Hilton.
Although this is a struggle that
means much to union labor as well
as life or death to the accused,
there is no money in sight except
a fund aggregating $25O,OO0 pledg-
ed by President Meyer of the West
ern Federation of Miners.
The alleged conspirators arrived
