Milwaukee, Oct. 17.-Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevlt was shot and slightly
wounded Sunday night as he was
leaving the Gilpatric hotel for the
auditorium to make a speech. The
wound was superficial and the COL
onel went on to make his speech af-
ter seeing the assailant arrested and
taken to the police station. Henry F.
Cochems seized the would-be assassin
and held him until policemen came.
Mobs surged around the man, who
apparently is radical on the subject
of Roosevelt running for a third term.
The police succeeded in protecting
the assailant from the mob. The as.
sassin, who is small of stature, ad-
mitted firing the shot, saying "any
man looking for third term ought to
be shot,"
Went to Doctors After Speech.
In notes found in the mans pockets
at the station were statements that
the man had been visited in dream
by the spirit Of William Mckinley,
who had said, indicating Roosevelt,
'"This is my murderer, avenge my
DEATH"
Roosevelt completed his speech at
9:45 and was taken to Emergency
hospital, where six physicians examin-
ed the wound and decided to take an
Gray photograph. Roosevelt's life
was probably saved by manuscript
of his speech. The bullet struck the
manuscript. The assailant, who after
an hours examination told the police
that his name is John Schrank, $40
East Tenth street, New York, was pre-
vented from firing the second shot by
Albert H. Martin, one Of Roosevelt's
secretaries. Roosevelt had just step
ped into an automobile when the as
sailant fired. Martin who was stand
ing nearby, leaped onto the mans
shoulders bearing him to the ground.

the second time. The next man was

Lewis knocked a sacrifice fly to the
outer garden and Yerkes raced home
ahead of the throw-in with the score
that won the game and the champion
ship of the world. w
Game Heart-breaker.
Today's game, the deciding contest
Of the world series, was a heart
breaker. Bedient, who held New York
to three hits the first and only other
time he pitched against the giants,
was opposed to the crafty veteran,
Mathewson. For inning after inning
the game was the fiercest, most stub
bornly contested pitcheds' battle of
the series. #@
New York drew first blood. In the
third inning Devore walked. He stole
second, was sacrificed to third and
trotted home when Merkle slammed
out a two-bagger, making the score
l to Q for New York. #s
u Boston Scores in Seventh.
I. Neither side could. do anything
more until the seventh when Boston
tied it up. %a
Stahl was on second and Wagner
on first in the seventh when Bedient
came to bat. Stahl wigwagged him
back and called out Hendrickson to
bat in the pinch. AS has been done
several times before in the series,
the pinch hitter made good. He slam
med out two-bagger, scoring Stahl.
That ended the scoring, and at the
end Of the ninth the game was still
tied up. :
Wood, who was batted out OF the
box yesterday, replaced Bedient.

Barnes County Display

EQUALLY SECOND AND THIRD

The Commercial club OF Valley

as one half of the second and third
premium from the bismarck Indus
trial Exhibit The second and third
premiums were equally devided be-
tween Barnes and Richland counties
the amount OF the second premium
was $500, and of the third $500, so
that the $3.50 covered the half Of
both. The expense of gathering to-
gether the material for the exhibit
and other expenses in connection with
It cost the club about $500 50 there is
balance OF $50 in cash over and
above expenses, in payment for the
effort, besides the valuable advertis-
ing which the display gave the coun-
ty, which cannot be estimated. Un-
fortunately no organized movement
was made toward an exhibit until
about ten days before the opening of
the fair, and as a result the showing
was very much less attractive than it
might have been had the CONNER
cial club began the gathering to-
gether of the farm products at date
considerably earlier in the season.
Eddy county again carried off first

nice thing for that little county. New

Bad Train Smash
Sunday Near 0riSkd
N. p. FLYER CRASHES INTO
: FREIGHT CARS-NONE SER
iOUSLY HURT-PRAlsE
FOR ENGINEER

Travelling at the rate of forty-five
miles an hour, Northern Pacific pas
isenger train Ma. 4, eastbound, ran into
an open switch at Oriska Sunday
afternoon, took the siding and
crashed into a string of freight cars
Engine and baggage car left the rails
and toppled over on their sides,
every coach was badly damaged, one
car being carried clear OF it's trucks !;
the freight cars were reduced to kind
ling wood, and, because cool-headed
engineer was at the throttle, Of the
$50 passengers aboard, not one life
was lost
T. The cause of the accident was at
tributed to the fact that the switch
was left open by a construction crew.
Making Up Lost Time
Shortly before the accident No. 4
had been running at high rate of
speed, according to the story told by
passengers, to make up lost time, but
as the train approached Oriska the
speed was reduced to As miles an
hour, although no stop was contem-
plated. Apparently Engineer Dalzer
observed the open switch just before
the big engine 1eaped upon it, for the
passengers realized that the air was
being spilled Immediately before the
heavy engine bounded on the main
line.
= Succession Of Jerks
There was a succession of sharp
jerks, and the whels fairly screamed
as the breaks were applied. AS the
train swung onto the siding those
near the windows saw the fireman
leap from the engine cab. The engine
then appeared to advance by great
bounds though it was evident thatev-
cry effort was being exerted to bring
it to halt. Passenbers were jerked
from their seats and then the crash
came, as the locomotive drove into the
freight cars.
No Serious injuries
AS nearly as has been determined
there were no serious injuries, prob
ably the most unfortunate case being
the experience OF a woman who was
convalescing from an illness. She
was severely shaken, up and it was
impossible for her to proceed when
several OF the passenger coaches were
hooked onto a freight engine and
hauled to Fargo.

The Subsidized Press
And Col. Roosevelt
Communication


the Press upon public opinion more
than. the MONEY TRUST, and its of
spring. They have found it worth
while to obtain control of the big
newspapers of the land. Most large
papers must have an unlimited credit
and the advertising Of big concerns to
insure success. By coloring the news
for q considerable time and actual
misrepresentation they are able to
create such an impression OF men and
issues as will best serve their pur-
poses Of election. These papers COM
prise a vast majority of the New
York dailies and those Of other large
cities OF the United States including
the Twin Cities, and some In this
state. These are the papers that
have always opposed such progressive
legislation as the primaries, the d.
rect election Of senator's, the commits
sion plan Of government tor cities,
the initiative and referendum, the
right Of recall.
In the three campaigns made by
Bryan these Same papers not only
criticised him for being . man with
. multitude Of untried theories. but
they used every artince known to the
newspapers to make the public be.
1ieyer that he was . dishonest. danger
ous. ambitious politician.
Now Mr.. Reader these same char
acter assassins that were trying to
take from Bryan his good name are
now engaged In the same despicable
work against Mr.. Roosevelt. 1s it
not suspicious circumstance that
the same papers that have always op-
posed progressive legislation, that
used such foul tactics in previous
campaigns against Mr.. Bryan, are
now referring to him as the Grand
Old Man, and applying to Roosevelt
the epithets and the adjectives for.
merqy used against the Nebraskan.
P. S.-Since the above was written
word has been received of Roosevelt's
attempted assassination. No one can
possibly blame Wilson for this out
rage. The blame lies with the sub
sidized press before referred to, that
has so pictured Roosevelt that such
half baked persons as John Shrank
believe they are doing their country
q service In this way. The Money
Trust and other Trusts are back Of
the subsidized press, and they direct
~ or indirectly are back OF Wilson,
not because he wishes their support,
but because they fear him less than
Roosevelt.
