WHY BLAISDELL IS SUPPORTED

Minot Independent: While this pa
per is supporting Alfred Blaisdell fol
congress. we first favored the candi
dacy of James Johnson, who is now a
candidate for the state senate. But
We always were anxious to unite with
others on some one candidate from
Minot and many months ago tried to
get the various candidates to get to-
gether and all drop out but one. Mr..
Blaisdell as we'll as Mr.. johnson were
very agreeable, as neither OF them
said they desired to run unless the
citizens were really backing them, Mr.
Devine and Mr.. Davis at that time re-
fused to consider any proposition to-
wards a compromise, suggested by
Minot business men.
We can support Mr.. Blaisdell loyal
ly Notwithstanding he was not our
Original choice because for the past
10 years we have known him as a
good.hearted neighbor and an honest
and hard working business man.
As a public man and state ocial for
four years he made record which
was a brilliant one in comparison to
certain state officials, who brought
disgrace upon our state.
But in addition to other qualifica-
tions, candidate to win must be a
hard worker and never give up. Blais-
deM will surely make a hard fight and
that is what we want.

Taken to Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON May 17.-On the
eve of the straw-hat season, the De-
partment of Justice today put Pan
ANA hat question up to the Supreme

fraudulently undertakes it, may the

SOME OF HANFORD'S
DECISIONS CONE UP

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 9.-Arguments
on the Eli Melovich case, to which con
siderable reference was made during
the impeachment investigation Of ex-
Judge Hanford, are being made today
before the circuit court OF appeals,
which convened here today.
In this case, Meloyich, a laborer, re-
ceived a $4,000 jury verdict against
the stone-Webster corporation repre-
sented by Kerr e McCord, corporation
lawyers, whom Hanford favored. On
motion for a new trial, Hanford vol
unfairly made the startling discovery
that he had used enormously the lit
tie word ANY" in one OF his instruc-
tlons, and gave that as his principal
excuse for granting a new trial. He
also added that $4,000 was about five
times too much for such an injury.
The Leonard OLSON disfranchlse-
ment case will also be reviewed by the
circuit court this week. As the gov
ernment will not contest the appeal
from Judge Hanford's decision, 1t is
practically certain that Hanford will
be reversed and Olsson's citizenship
rights will be restored.

YOUR CHlLD'S HEALTH
YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

II you have children, naturally
your first thoughts are for their
health. You certainly want them to
develop strong healthy constitutions
The most careful attention must be
given when children show the first
symptoms of the many common all
ments. Perhaps they are weakly and
thin, or grow too fast, thus sacrific-
ing strength These and other APP
parently minor ailments may be the
forerunner to a weak constitution for
life.
Such children nee,l Jayne's Tonic
Vermifuge which is essentially a
children's tonic. First OF all, 1t will
properly care for the child's stom-
ach, 1t will also improve the appe-
lite, and will add strength to the
other organs OF the body In cases
Of thin or impure blood, 1t increases
the number Of red corpuscles enab-
ling the enriched blood to keep the
body healthy and strong.
Among the most common ailments
that children develop is that of
disordered stomach, leading to an
impaired digestion. In many cases
this trouble is due to parasites in
the intestinal tract. To correct such
trouble, Jayne's Tonic vermifuge is
unsurpassed
For more than so years millions Of
children have been restored to health
through the use Of this tonic. In
sist upon Jayne's; accept no other.

today averaged 1861 miles an hour in
the Gordon Bennett aviation cup races.
The general opinion is that vedrlnes

American machine was able to do bet
ter than rs miles an hour, and in the
competition against time each contes-
tant must fly 124 miles. They can fly
at any time during the day.
Vedrines time was hour, 10 min
utes and Sc seconds. The fastest lap
was the 18th, when he flew Ala miles
In 2.1S.
American avlators declare there is
no use Of them flying, as they admit
they cannot beat Vedrine's time.
Provost, Vedrine's team mate, and
Thompso nand Beck, Americans, will
fly later.
