THE HAITlEN MUDDLE.

The flight Of President Simon has
not ended the trouble in Haiti. Fir
min and Leconte, the rival leaders
of the successful revolt, have yet to
adjust their own differences. Mean
while the American, British and Ger
man warships are protecting the
capital and supporting the committee
of public safety charged with the
preservation of order pending the es-
tablishment of de facto govern
ment. With foreign interests thus
safe-guarded efforts are being made
to have the rival revolutionists get
together. Failing that it has been
suggested that the foreign interests
establish neutral zones around the
principal ports and let the rivals fight
it out outside.
Whatever the outcome there is lit
tie hope from the history of the re-
public that abiding peace can be ex-
pected owing to the century long dis
sensions between the negroes of the
north and the mulattoes of the south.
A further division of the island by
which each division and race would
have it's own territory, as Haiti and
San Domingo now exist. might be a
solution, but it is doubtful. Perhaps
the best that can be hoped is that
out Of the muddle some leader OF
stamina may raise who will give the
strife-torn country a few years of
peace before the next revolt chases
him off the island.

from whence the noise proceeded she
found a man. She asked him what
he was doing, at the same time To-
eating her husbands revolver, which
she pointed at the intruder.
She ordered him to back out Of the
house which he was not slow to do,
but on his way out he dropped some
thing on the floor which afterwards
proved to be Mrs. Coleman's watch.
The man was permitted to go, but the
police were notified and kept up an
unsuccessful search for him after

Early Saturday morning a stranger
called at her house and said he want
ed to rent room. Mrs. Coleman had
room to rent and terms were made
for the same. The fellow gave her
$40 check in payment for the room
and after remaining in the room for
some little time departed.
| After he had gone Mrs. Coleman
found that the gold watch was MISS
ing, as was also a valuable gold ring.
This was not all, for in addition $6.25
were also taken.
She gave the officers an excellent
description of the man and Detec-
tive overly and Sergeant Coleman
have been hunting for him ever since,
but without success, although they
went on both sides of the river in
their search.

THE CANADIAN ELECTION AND
RECIPROCITY.

The parliamentary election in Can
ada, the campaign for which is now
on, and in which the ratification or
rejection of the reciprocity agree
ment with the United States is the
sole issue, has more than passing in
terest for the people of this state
especially. The Canadian parliament
was dissolved because the Conserva-
tives, who were in the minority, were
able by filibustering to prevent the
ratification of the agreement, even
though the Liberals, who favored the
agreement had clear majority over
all of forty-fve, though five of this
number and the three Independents
were against the agreement. This
still left them a majority of thirty
six, but with that, an appeal to the
country was necessary.
An analysis of the political COM
plexion of the present parliament is
interesting as prediction study.

DAKOTA SHOTS ARE
HOPING FOR A
VICTORY
State Militia Team Leaves
Next sunday-o Officials All
Enthusiastic

Orders have been issued by Adult
ant General w. G.. Truemann for the
transportation of the North Dakota
team of the state militia that will
compete in the annual government
competitive shoot at Camp Perry, o.,
and these orders provide for the as
sembling of the members of the team
in Fargo next Sunday, from which
city they go to st. Paul, spending a
short time there Monday, August a.,
and continuing to Camp Douglas,
Wisconsin, where they will remain
for a week with the Wisconsin rife
team engaged in practice work. The
team leaves Camp Douglas August 20
and proceeds to Camp Perry, reach
ing there August 21.
Team officers have been designated
with Adjutant General Truemann as
captain; Edward C. Geary of Fargo
as coach; David S. Ritchie as range
officer, and Anthony M. Holt as spot
ter.
North Dakota is going into the
competitive shoots this year deter
mined to make an ever better show
ing than it did last year. The Flick
ertails now stand first in the division
of states having only one regiment
to draw from, and that fact has en-
couraged the officers to believe that
they will be enabled to retain the
place.
In making the practice stop at
Camp Douglas, the North Dakotans
will have better facilities for their
work. The Wisconsin range is bet
ter equipped than the Dakota range,
and the Flickertails will also have
the practice derived from shooting
against the Badger men.
Efficiency of rifle men in the North
Dakota national guard will be great
ly improved in the next two or three
years as a result of the establishment
of several new local ranges. Dickin-
son has shown the results of such
range in the fact that the company
there is recognized as one of the best
in the United States. A team from
the Dickinson company will enter
into the company competitive shoot
ing event, and the North Dakotans
already successful in many telegraph
ic contests, believes that it has q
good chance of pulling in near the
top in this division.
The North Dakota rifle team was
selected at the recent state encamp-
ment at Devils Lake, and for fort.
night following the breaking up OF
the camp, the members of the team
remained there engaged in practice
work. The members are First Lieu
tenant Leroy Raird. Co. K; Second

BACK FROM BISMARCK
City Assessor and County Auditor
Were Before State Board

County Auditor Hans Anderson and
City Assessor Sim Miller have re-
turned from Bismarck where they
had been attending meeting of the
state equalization board. Assessment
books from about eight counties have
not as yet been received at the state
capital and but little work was done
by the state board, beyond listening
to requests from the various city and
county officials. City Assessor Miller
asked the state equalizers for re-
duction on structures on town and
city lots and also asked for a mater
ial reduction on the assessed valua-
ton of automobiles. County Auditor
Anderson asked for reduction in the
assessment of farm lands.

The ratification of the agreement

The ratification of the agreement
will practically destroy both Toronto
and Quebec as transatlantic ship
ping ports SO far as grain is con-
cerned. If reciprocity is finally rat
ified the grain carrying trade will
turn to the Hill lines in the United
States and the Canadian railroads
east of Winnipeg will rust and rot,
because their largest traffic in the
future must be the grain from the
western provinces. The railroads of
Canada have an immense power in
politics and when their future pros
perity is at stake as it is now they
will fight to the last ditch. Their
influence, combined with the danger
of the destruction of the two great
est seaports, will probably change
many Liberal to Conservative seats
in both Quebec and Ontario where
the Liberals are now strong.
1t will depend on these two pro-
vinces to overcome the present Lib
eral majority as we'll as offset the
certain Liberals gains elsewhere
The influences are strong, but they
hardly seem strong enough to ac-
cOmnliSh tha end

AN EPOCHAL EVENT.

August 8, 1911, will be a golden
day in history. 1t was the date of
an epochal event, the signing of the
first general arbitration treaties by
the representatives Of three great
nations, from which it expected to
develop the ultimate and inevitable
era of peace.
Important as was the first Hague
conference, it becomes secondary in
comparison with the achievement of
Thursday. The recognition by three
of the leading nations that, as Presi-
dent Taft argued in his famous
speech of last December 1s, no inter-
national controversy is insusceptible
of arbitration, not even those involv-
ing national honor, and that it is pos
sible for nations to establish between
themselves the same due process of
law that exists between individuals
under a government, is concrete
advance toward the creation of an
International court of arbitral jus-
tice, as urged by Secretary Knox,
that promises the most far-reaching
results. The conclusion of such a
treaty between the United States and
Great Britain and between the Unit
ed States and France will probably
be followed by treaties between this
country and Germany and Japan. AL
ready Russia has suggested similar
treaty with Great Britain. Eventu-
ally it is reasonable to hope that
such treaties will bind the nations
together in a series of pacts that
will make resort to war remote, il
not impossible The logical outcome
will be the establishment of the court
of arbitral justice proposed by Mr.
Knox. whose tact and ability in the
negotiation of the treaties signed las
Thursday was so handsomely &C
knowledged by the president.
Whether this desirable result ii
realized soon or late, the event will
! mark the starting point of the mos
practical movement toward peace ev
er inaugurated.

LAY FINAL PLANS
Automobile Club Meets Tuesday Night
to Complete Preparations

The executive committee of the
hold a meeting on Tuesday evening
in the Offices of A. l. Widlund for the
purpose of making final preparations
for the coming tour Of the organi-
zation, which will start from this
city Tuesday morning, August Is.
The club is showing a great deal
of interest in the tour and it will
be Of benefit not only to those who
make he trip. bu to the city, as much
advertising. is received by the tour
and from a trade standpoint closer
relations are established with the
merchants of the state. 1t is expect
ed that fully twenty-five machines
will participate.
The evening times., 1911-08-07

The Liberals have a large majority,
and if they hold their own in the
coming election, the agreement will
be ratified. If they lose in the elec-
ton, it will not be. Should the five
Liberals who now oppose the agree
ment and the three Independents be
returned, it will give basis of nine
ty-three against one hundred twenty
eight for ratification. The Conserva-
tives must overcome this majority in
order to defeat reciprocity.
The agricultural provinces-Mani-
toba, Alberta and saskatchewan
are strongly in favor of reciprocity,
and will naturally increase their
Liberal representation. But should
these three provinces elect solid Lib
eral delegations, they would only add
twelve to the present Liberal party.
Even il the five Conservatives from
oIAIA60 SO1uuO4d S1Ou4U Us IepldCeu
by Liberals, it would only make a
total of seventeen seats to the Liber-
ais. This is all that can be hoped
for in the way of gains for the Lib
erals, in the west at the hest, and
British Columbia is not By any
means ono sided in favor of reciproc-
ity and her present representation
will probably be maintained. In the
maritime provinces, the provision for
admitting fish into the United States
free may gain few seats, but as the
people there are beginning to realize
that our own fisheries supply our
market, they will probably not be
caught with the humbug of larger
fish market.
1t is evident from the analysis that
the Conservatives, in order to win
must gain enough seats to overcome
the present Liberal majority and al
the same time carry enough to offset
what they will lose in the agricul-
tural provinces. Evidentally these
must be gained in Ontario and Que.
bee. with a bare chance in New
Brunswick and Nova Scotia. In On
tario and Quebec the Liberals are
strong, and in both these provinces
the dominating influences are against
reciprocity.

AMERICANS UNITED
FOR THEIR TICKET
Know That Federal Bunch
Does Not Represent Pro-
greSsive Sentiment.

The most gratifying result Of the re-
cent primary election is the absolute
union of the American party. y small
portion OF the American party went
away before the primary TO support the
Leathcrwood ticket because some Amer
leans were given places on the ticket.
Now these Americans are back in line,
Several appeared al the American head
quarters yesterday. They admitted That
they had been mistaken in believing that
the federal bunch was capable OF giving
them anything but the worst OF il, and
they are now willing To get out and
work hard for the American ticket,
There was never any real hard feel
ing between the two branches OF the
American party. Some of the boiling
Americans felt that they represented the
American sentiment OF the community
and were willing to permit the primary
election TO Lc the test. The test proved
that the Americans OF the city were be-
hind the regular American ticket. The
Americans on the federal bunch ticket
were knitted by those. who named them
aud received only the complimentary
votes of their American friends. The
manner in which these Americans were
treated by the federal bunch has con-
WINGED them more than ever of the need
of the American party and certainly OF
the necessity OF electine the American
party ticket at the coming city elec-
tion.
