got up and stated that Mr.. Sparkman
was not there, and would not be able,
on account of his wifes sickness. to
speak any more before the primary ex-
cept possibly in Tampa.
on the night of the 18th, at Fort
Meade, Tom Palmer spoke for Mr..
Sparkman, and in a most pathetic
manner tried to play upon the sympa-
thies of the audience and prejudice
the people against me by claiming
that Mr.. Sparkman was with his wife.
While Mr.. Palmer was doing that, Mr.
Sparkman was in Tampa and Mrs
| Sparkman in Baltimore.
| notwithstanding the foregoing, Mr.
| Sparkman spoke at Williston on the
| nth and at Ocala on the night of the
18th. If I had known he was going
to speak l would have been at both
| places.
! on April goth. according to the re-
| port of the political speaking at
Brooksville on that day. Thomas
Palmer represented Mr.. Sparkman
and stated that he was there repre-
senting Mr.. Sparkman. who was pre-
vented from being present on account
of illness in his family, referring to
Mrs. Sparkman's sickness.
In another column. on the same
page, the Tribune gave a summary OF
/ the speech made by Mr. Sparkman or
the same day at Arcadia.
I want the public to know that II
Mr. Sparkman had not brought the
sickness of his wife into this cam
paign. by putting it in the papers
| throughout the district as paid adver-
| Using matter, I would never have re-
ferred TO it: and that l only reluc-
| family refer to it now because Mr.
| Sparkman and his workers are trying
| to make political capital of it for the
purpose of arousing sympathy in Mr.
| Sparkman's behalf and prejudicing the
people against me. In short it was
Mr.. Sparkman, acting through the in

which are absolutely false and untrue
Knowing the refined sensibilities and
retiring nature of Mrs Sparkman, as
I do, 10 not believe that she has any
knowledge of the fact that her sick
ness is being paraded before the pub
lie as it is.
If Mr.. Sparkman had wanted to be
| fair. he would have come to me as
soon as he received such a letter and
shown it to me, and given me the
name of the author, thereby giving me
an opportunity to investigate the char
acter of the man who wrote the letter
his motive for so doing, and whether
or not he was really present and heard
my speech. The fact that he has no.
done so ought to convince, and | be-
lieve will convince every fair mind &C

majority to defeat me. L call upon
my friends call upon all who are
opposed to sending attorneys for rail-
roads and express companies to Con-

die ground.
Do not let a Craftsmanship of a COM

amity Before civilization men took

The Economical Cooking Fat

There is both economy and SOLID satIs-
faction in cooking with Cottolene. Not
only is it more economical than either
butter or lard-one-third less being re-
quired-but it can be used in fine cakes
and pastry with every bit as good re-
suits as butter, and for frying it exceis
lard or other cooking fats.
Unlike lard, Cottolene makes food
wholesome, nourislling, digestible. 1t
is made from Cottonseed Oil, the use
of which, DR.. Wiley SO strongly has
commended.
Cottolene shortens your food-length-
ems your life, and saves you money at
the same time

Pigeon Flight
Is Attracting
Much Interest
Thirty Birds Will Race From Here
to st. Paul Against Time Next
Monday Morning.

No little interest is being taken in
the pigeon flight which will be made
by thirty racing birds Monday morn
ing from here to st. Paul provided. Of
course. that the weather is favorable.
h birds will arrive in this city to-
morrow morning from st. Paul and
will be taken care of by a member of
the Twin City Center club who resides
In the city. and an owner of q num-
Der OF fancy carrier and racing
pigeons.
The birds will be most likely liber-
ated from the windows of the Times
Herald Monday morning, according to
present plans.
These pigeons are sent out by a rae
ing association in st. Paul and the
birds who make the best showiny in
the flight between here and the Min
nesota city will be entered in a flight
from the Pacific coast some time this
fall.
When the birds are started on a
long flight the time is taken and sent
to the home city. The flyers are not
fed the morning they are going to race
50 that when they arrive at their
destination they will at once enter
their pens through little trap doors
that register the time of their arrival
on a clock. All other birds in the
loft are penned up. so that the flyers
are the only ones to enter through the
trap doors.
The place where the birds enter aft
er the fight is q frame construction
with aluminium sticks running down
the center about two inches apart
which are connected with an electric
battery attached to a clock. When
the birds enter the clock stops and the
exact time of their arrival is register
ed in that way.
The time keeper makes the rounds
Of each loft and takes the time from
the clocks and then announces the
winners.
The birds are fed very little when
they arrive home. Overlooking when
they are SO tired and overheated would
be fatal. After an all-night rest they
are given their regular rations.

OSCAR Hidden
ACC|OENTLY SHOT
Gun Discharged in Unac-
countable Manner-Victim
Died Thirty Minutes Later

While returning to his home at Os-
10, Mimi, early last night after a
hunting trip. Oscar Hidden, for MANY
years a resident of this city and Eas,
Grand Forks, was killed, when his
shotgun was accidentally discharged.
The charge entered the stomach, and
he died about thirty minutes later.
MIR. Hidden. together with Peter
Holen and Mr.. Whiteside, had spent
the day hunting. On the return trip,
Mr.. Holden sat in the front seat of
the rig and held his gun in front of
him. The weapon started to fall out
Of the vehicle and. as he reached over
to catch 1t, 1t was accidentally dis
charged.
The accident happened about five
miles southeast of Oslo.
Medical aid was summoned at once,
but the physician did not arrive on
the scene until after Mr.. Hidden had
passed away. 1t is said. however. that
the wound was of such a nature that
assistance would have been of no
avail. MI. Hilden's gun was an au-
tomato weapon, and there was but
one shell in it.
Mr.. Hidden was very we'll known on
both sides of the river. He was a
student in the Central high school
here for some time, and was later
employed at the Schlaberg & Griffin
drug store. He was a member of the
Bjarne chorus and Of the Grand
Forks lodge of knights Of Pythias.
For the past few years he was en-
gagged in the drug business at Oslo.
A. ]. Hidden, the father, resided in
both East Grand Forks and Grand
Forks. While here lie made his home
at PIT Cottonwood street. He was al
from the Second ward at one
time.

PRINCIPAL IN A
FIGHT

the university law school. is at present
entangled in n of the warmest poll
teal fights in the state. He is now
states. attorney of Emmons county
and is battling with George W.. Lynn.
father Of Harry Lynn. also a law
school student. for the states attor-
neyship.
The latest developments in the fight
are the starting of disbarment pro-
ceed!ngs against Mr.. Lynn and a
threat at criminal libel against d. B.
Streeter. a member of the legislature
and publisher of the Linton Record.
The libel case threat is made by Mr..
Cameron.
The fight against Lynn centers
around the purchase of certain tax
titles by him. which the Hackney
Bodnton Land company claim were
made in its behalf. Mr.. Lynn won
in the first round in the courts,
but the disbarment proceedings have
been brought against him. in which
unprofessional conduct in the matter
is charged.
The Linton Record charged Mr..
Cameron with not doing his duty as
states attorney in the matter, claim
ing hat he was in league with this
land company. Mr.. Cameron an
swered by demanding a retraction of
the charges and Editor Street has
refused to retract. In the meantime.
