in Missouri where he has generally

Speakership His Goal.

Champ Clark is national figure be
cause he long ago chose the national
field In politics and craftsmanship. He
has been tempted by the governorship
of his state. by the senatorship, which
in Missouri means almost a life posi-
ton. but he put aside both because il
had been bis ambition to be speaker
of the national house of representa-
tives.
Great as either position seems to the
average man. Mr. Clark said that he
would rather be speaker one term
than to have a guaranteed life posi-
ton in the senate. No doubt he
shrewdly fcresaw that If he could sue

afterward unite his party when in
power in the house the Inevitable re-
suit must open the door to any ambi-
ton that might lead him to seek high

has been given Mr.. Clark's course as
leAsr of the minority and since as
speaker shows the wisdom of his
choice.

SIGNED NOTES AT REQUEST OF
DIRECTOR WITHOUT KNOWING
WHAT HE WAS DOING.

New Orleans, La, April 22.-In fur.
Their investigation of the failure of the
Teutonia Bank 8; Trust company, it
developed today that P. A. Brue, SIS
week clerk in a concern operated BY
Joseph Gomila, director of the bank,
owed the bank 100000 secured by
notes. He was dumbfounded today
when apprised Of the debt and told the
district attorney he had nothing with
which to secure the notes. He was or
dered held on 81, 1000 bond.
When asked why he signed the notes
he said:
"Well, Mr.. Gomila asked me to do
it, and I didn't think anything of it.
He said he would take care of them
and not to worry.''
Closing of the bank resulted in the
arrest of President Eugene F. Buehler
and Director Gomila on the charges of
embezzlement and making false state
ments, and former Cashier Frank J.
Braud, charged with embezzling $780,
900. The latter is still in Jail. The
others are out on bonds of $4,000 each.
It is now estimated that $75O,OOO
worth of worthless paper is held by the
bank. The exact amount Of the short
age cannot be determined until the
bank examiners finish their work.

MINOT DOCTOR MISSED DEATH
BY NOT WAITING FOR T1TANI,

Minot, N. D., April 22-Dr. Archie
MCDANIEL of this city, who was book
ed for passage on the Titanic, the fatal
steamer which sank with 1,4oo souls,
probably owes his life to the fact that
he was anxious to return to the magic
city and decided not to wait until the
Titanic sailed.
DR.. MCDANIEL first took reservation
on the Titanic, which was scheduled to
sail April 10. The doctor and Mrs.
Mcdaniel, however, became anxious to
return to North Dakota, and decided
to cancel their engagement on the Ii
tanic and take the Laurentian, which
sailed five days earlier. This they did
and arrived in New York last Sunday.
They will return to Minot today.
When the doctor 81 friends heard that
they were planning on returning on
the Titanic, they were exceedingly wor.
ried. Yesterday letter was received
stating that they had arrived safely in
New York. Today there is much re-
joicing among the Doctors many

Bismarck, N. D., April 19-Some
weeks ago it was announced that new
democratic weekly would soon be issued
from the capital city. Col. Benjamin
G. Whitehead, editor and publisher Of
the Williston Weekly State, announced
that he would publish the "Jackson-
ian," a democratic weekly of state
wide Importance, from this city. Later
he announced that the name of the
paper would be the CROUCH WRITER
and that it's initial number would make
its appearance some time in April.
However, since Roosevelt booted his
bonnet back into the ring and jumped
on it to keep it down, Colonel Ben has
decided that rough riding and rough
writing are somewhat monopolized by
Colonel Teddy, and therefore has de-
cided to stick to the standard of the
State.
The State will hereafter be edited
and published at Bismarck. Its first
appearance from its new headquarters

Devils Lake will be the meeting
place of the next convention of the
Great Northern passenger and ticket
agents on the Dakota division which
will be held during the Chautauqua
session and to Agent Keaveny of this
city must be given the credit for being
a booster for his home town when away
from home the same as at home. While
only forty members were present at
Grand Forks yesterday when they met
in their first session to organize, the
fact that Devils Lake has been chosen
for the next meeting place will throw
the session in the center of the division
and bring approximately 100 agents
here during the coming convention.
Agent Keaveny brought out the fact
that the Chautauqua would be in ses-
sion at the time for the next meeting
and showed them the object, it would
be to the agents to meet in Devils Lake
at this time. he received the coopera.
ton Of many of the prominent members
of the convention and all were glad to
have the opportunity to visit this city.
At the meeting held yesterday Of the
agents Of the Dakota division, o. I.
Thomas Of Hillsboro was elected presi-
dent, W. B. Sinclair of Grand Forks,
was chosen as the vice president,
and secretary and treasurer, s. NJ. But
Ter of Brocket. Mr.. Keaveny of this
city tied the Grand Forks man for
votes on vice president but graciously
declined the honor, it being evident
that Mr.. Sinclair's services would be of
much more value as he would be in
closer touch with the division superin-
tendent.
Messrs. Keaveny of this city, Chas.
Taylor of Grand Forks and John L. Ro.
han of Fargo were appointed on COM
mittee for bylaws, this being the only
committee appointed.
"The first meeting was success in
every way" said Mr.. Keaveny, "and
the meeting here this summer is bound
to be much bigger and better.'
Those eligible to join the association
are agents, chief clerks, cashiers, opera
tors, warehousemen, baggage men and

4 KING YEAR OF BE.
4 AkY OLD, 10 IN CITY
Or WORD FROM HIS
.1FTER MANY TRYING
1NCEs IN WEST.

II s. Morrison of Grand Rapids,
a., is Devils Lake visitor for a
~ days, not from choice, although he
Ills well pleased, but because his money
ran out on account of having his peck.
cts picked while in Chicago. he has
been away from home about ten days
and in that time has had enough ex-
perience to fill book. Although he
is 80 years old, he is still hale and hear
ty.
Starting out ten days ago from his
home at Grand Rapids, he purchased a
ticket for Butte, Mont, where he was
going to surprise son with visit.
While changing cars in Chicago, a hold
up artist relieved him of $500 which
he had in his pocket and had it not
been for a little surplus he carried in
the other pocket he would have been
embarrassed financially, earlier in the
game.
When he arrived at Butte, he took a
stage to the ranch, only to find that
the younger Morrison had sold out and
had passed him going east on the train.
"The surprise was on me-" said the
old gentleman. From Butte he wrote
home for more money to be sent to
Devils Lake, having enough to carry
him this far. To date the money has
not yet arrived and it is with the ex-
pectation of receiving it any train that
he is building his hopes of returning
to his home in Michigan.
He has been resident of Michigan
since the close of the Mexican war,
when he was released from the army.
He was born in 1913 and next year will
be century old. When asked if he
did not hesitate at travelling alone, be.
ing so aged, he said, "when you stop
to consider that I am not half as old
in feeling as am in years you will
understand that would not mind it,
even being under a tritle handicapped
condition. I have been around the
world considerable and thought I was
pretty shrewd but some 'geiser' in
Chicago was just a triflle sharper than
was for I didn't even miss the mon
ey until I needed it badly"
Since coming to Devils Lake he has
found friends and is today entertaining
them with stories of even earlier dates
than they can remember when they
were actual residents of the lake state.
