A. SULLIVAN QUITE SEVERELY
INJURED BYFALL DOWN STAIRS

very serious happened to J. A. Sullivan
a Great Northern brakeman, at the Col
onial hotel last evening. Mr.. Sullivan
was coming down the partially complete
ed stairway from the third floor of the
hotel and in some manner slipped and
fell over. the side of the stairs to the
hall below. distance of about six feet
He struck on his back and for some
time was unable to move. DR.. Dahl was
at once called and the unfortunate man
was made as comfortable as possible.
An examination revealed the fact that
his back had been badly wrenched bu
it is thought that he suffered no per-
manent injury and he will probably b
around again in few days.

Fargo, Oct 9-Fred Bartholomew, the
genial proprietor of the Frederick hotel
Of Grand Forks, is said to be slated for
the democratic nomination for congress
from the First congressional district in
place Of Former Mayor Lowell of Fargo,
who rendered his resignation from the
ticket about two weeks ago. Mr.. Bar
tholomew was in the city last evening
it is reported, comforting with the Off
Gals Of the democratic state committee.
Some time ago it was understood that
Mr.. Lowell desired to withdraw his can
didacy and rendered his resignation wit
the provision he would allow his name
to remain on the ticket provided no can
didate could be secured to fill his place.
His large volume of business demanded
his attention here in the city and he di
not feel he could give the time to a
campaign which he thought would be
necessary.
Mr. Bartholomew is popular with the
travelling public, especially with the
knights of the grip and the democratic
leaders feel he would make an admir-
able candidate on their ticket provided
Mr.. Lowell cannot be induced to continue
When asked about the matter today
State Chairman Macarthur said the
matter of Mr.. Bartholomew candidacy
was being considered but that nothing
definite had been done as the chairman
was not sure that after Oct. any name
could be placed on the ticket as all pc.
titions are illegal after that date. He
said the matter would probably be pre-.
scented to the attorney general when II
reached the secretary Of states Office.

The following expressions from, over
the state will be Of interest: +. -,
: George ". Wilson, one Of the Repub-
lican leaders Of the Northwestern part of
the state, writes Chairman Grey Of the
Republican state committee from Stanley
where he is editor Of the Sun: ''Moun-
trail county hasn't even a local Dem
ocratic ticket in the field. We are work
ing hard for the republican ticket and
can see no reason why the wao!e tick
ct should not have a large majority in
this county. hope you can pull the
grand old party through this time with
a united 'front.'
Oscar Herum Of Carpio writes repub-
lican headquarters that Mr.. Hanna is
strong candidate for governor there.
Henry Hall, the noted Washington
correspondent for the Pittsburgh Chron-
icle Telegraph, called at Republican
headquarters yesterday and paid glow
ing Commitment to Congressman Hanna,
whom he said was one of the most in
f1uential republican members Of the low
er house Of congress and that he was
one Of the hardest fighters against Can
adam reciprocity. Everybody In WASH
ington likes Hanna, regardless Of Party"
said Mr.. Hall.
G.. E. Boyden, editor Of the Lisbon
Free Press, writes Chairman Gray CT
the republican state committee: There
is no question but what Hanna will have
a good majority for governor in this
county,"
C. E. Davidson of Portal writes:
Cant find any Bull Moosers around
here. But really we do not care so
much about the presidential election as
we do about our state election. We want
to show them we have level headed
set Of men in North aDkota and not
a bunch Of B. Srs. We have as good
laws regarding elections as any state in
the union and we should abide by them. -
Alloys Wartner, one Of the leading at
torneys of Harvey, and well known all
over the state, writes: IT feel there will
be no question about Hanna's election.
am firmly convinced that Of the three
men who are now seeking the office OF
gov rnor that Mr. Hanna Is the best
man in every way and the only man of
the three to fill the governors chair
with honor to the state and himself.
feel that in the state we are Cling to
elect our ticket from tip to bottom and
not only that but after we have elected
our candidates that they can be elected
again. because they are going to make
giod.'
N. B. Pinkham Of Casse1ton visited
republican headquarters yesterday and
among other things said that there had
been some Roosevelt sentiment out there
until the third termers put up candi-
date against Hanna, but that now prac-
tically everyone was working hard fol-
the latter's election and republican sen
timent was growing stronger every
day for the ticket from top to bottom
