coWAR's ADDRESS
FAV0RABlY RECEIVED

The prosecution in the Judge owan
impeachment case was practically
finished Thursday afternoon. Judge
Cowan presented his cas- to the senate
and according to the Bismarck Tribune
made a favorable impression. He said
that SO out of every 100 impeachment
cases were due to politics and that was
his case. He further stated that he was
making the fight for his honor, for his
wife, his two boys and his two girls.
He reviewed briefly much of the testi-
mony given against him.
Before referring to the Scott Rex Incl
dent Cowan referred to the board of,
MANAGERS as q mountain laboring to
bring forth a mouse and stated that evil
dence of witnesses, that he was awful
drunk" must be so if he really hugged
Rex. This caused a roar of laughter
from the senate and audience. He told
of his goings and comings on the day
in question and stated he would bring
witnesses to prove that he. was not
intoxicated and was in full possession of
his faculties and transacted a large
amount of business during the morning
and afternoon.
Specifications 9 and 10 which were
testified to by George Hancock of Fargo
were explained by stating that at the
time of the case alleged to have been
postponed-on account of the drunkenness
of the judge the druggists convention
was in Devils Lake and court was adj
journed to allow of visiting by judge,
jurors and attorneys with delegates.
The judge gave as cause for the animus
of Hancock the fact that a case in
COwan's court had gone. against him.
He charged Traynor and Hancock with
having fixed up the testimony before
Hancock went on the stand. He had a
lots of fun with the ''dribbling"
incident.

letter carrier on route No. l. For
seven consecutive years Mack has
been faithful servant of Uncle SAM
during which time he has not been
on duty except on national holidays
and during his owners annual vaca-
ton Of fifteen days.
There are S13 working days in each
year; deducting from this number the
yearly vacation of fifteen days and six
holidays. Mack has carried his mas
ter 1914 trips over route No. /. The
length of the daily trip being approx
imately twenty miles, it is readily seen
that ne has Travelled distance OF 49,
$50 miles. Mr.. Bartlett carries about
twenty-five pounds OF mail matter
daily. and little figuring i'll disclose
the fact that he has carried 4s,5oo
pounds Of mail on thl schsrger during
the last seven years.
Mack is a bright bay gelding. six
teen hands high. weighs 1900 pounds
and Is now about thirteen years old.
With the exception Of the loss OF his
right eye. he is sound as a dollar. /"
and shows no signs Of growing weary
OF his long and continuous service in
the postotice department.
1t is often, joeularly remarked by
patrons on Mr.. Bsrtletts route that
Aack lost the sight Of his eye by keep
Ing too constant a lookout for the
little red nag on rural letter boxes,
and that with only one eye he could
make his daily trip without the aid OF
his efficient rider.
Although Mack could doubtless
continue in the mail service for an
other period OF seven years without
losing much of his beauty and mettie.
we think Uncle Sam should in the
near future place him on the super
animated list with full pay the re
mainder OF his days.

HISTORY
OF the Red Cross Seal, OF
of the Popular Christ
mas Sucker.

Red Cross Christmas Seals date
back in their origin 10 charity
stamps frst used for the soldiers
relief funds in Boston in 1862, during
the Civil war. After the war. this
method of raising money was dlscoa-
tinued in this country for genera
ton. although it found vogue in Por-
tugal, Switzerland. Australia, France,
Spain, Denmark. Norway, Russia,
Sweden and other European coun-
tries. There are now several hun
dred different types OF charity stamps
used in all parts OF the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the anti-tuberculosis
crusade in Norway and Sweden in
1904. After being used in these coun-
tries for three years, as direct re-
suit of the interest of Jacob RIis in
this movement, the Delaware Anti
tuberculosis Association, headed by
Miss Emily p Bissell, and the Red
Cross Society Of Delaware combined
in Issuing a tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly $4,000 was realized, and the
next year. in 1905, the American Red
Cross was induced TO issue National
Red Cross tuberculosis Stamp.
From this sale, slS5,OoO was realized,
that amount being almost doubled IN
1909. This year, for the first time,
the sale is organized on comprehen-
siye basis, taking in all parts of the
United States A million for tuber-
culosis work is confidently expected.
