STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES
BY Andrew A. Bruce

Candidate for Supreme Court Judge
The judge should be servant
rather than master and should
himself obey the law. He should
not attempt to change the work of
the centuries in a single day, nor
should he override the will of the
sovereign people. 1t is his duty
principally to interpret and to en-
force the law. 1t is for the people
themselves to change that law and
to legislate. Many reforms there
fore in the law must and should
come from the voters themselves.
Otherwise the judge would be put
ting himself above the legislature
and above the sovereign people. He
which the people themselves would
consider to be otherwise and to be
step backwards. AS an associate
editor of the Central Law Journal,
as a lecturer and as writer, as a
practising lawyer and as a judge, !
have always, and during many years
fought for the reformation of our
laws, the simplifcation of our prac-
ise and the lessening of the ex-
penses and delays of litigation.
have always sought to make the law
more democratic and more humane.
My record is open to the public. 1t
can be found in the printed pages of
the magazines and the newspapers,
in the. journals of the legislative as
semblies of Illinois, Wisconsin and
North Dakota, in the records OF
both the State and National Bar AS
sociaitons. in the reports of the Ma
ional Commission on Uniform State
Laws, and in the improved condi-
ton Of the lives of thousands OF
men and women and children.
will always work to these reforms
{ whether upon the bench or on of 1t.
I believe that these reforms can be
brought about by cooperation on
the part OF bob he courts and the
legislature. will work for them.
Respectfully yours,
51 $50 *5 ANDREW A.. BRUCE.

HORRIBLE DEATH
FOR THRESHER
Lives Only a Few Hours After
Being Horribly Mangled in
Cog Wheels

Bismarck, N. D., Oct. 28.-Anton
Germaine of Antelope was killed as
the result of an accident at a
threshing rig. His shoulder was
caught in the wheel and crushed.
The fireman, seeing the accident, re-
versed the engine and Germaine was
then caught by the hip, which was
horribly mangled. The victim only
lived a few hours after being taken
to a hospital at Dickinson.

r. F. Pommier of near Coteau
was in the city Wednesday after
noon on business and called on his
friend, The Tribune. He seemed
we'll satisfied with the way tho world
had used him this year with the ex-
ception of the weather that he has
been compelled to contend with.
The weather has put Mr.. Pommier
away behind in his work, and is
causing him much grief all around.
His entire crop with the exception
of barley was threshed some time
ago, but he has almost given up
hope of having all his grain put
sets in. In spite of the inconven-
fences Mr.. Pommier has been un-
dergoing he is still the jolly good
fellow that all people like to meet
and talk with.
VIM. stromberg of the H. M.
Rowe & Co. on Tuesday of this
week installed a gas lighting sys-
tenn in the blacksmith shop of AL
fred Harden, and also put in two
extra lights in the store of r. T.
Blenkner. During the past there
were no lights in the windows of
the Blenkner store which made it
impossible to make window dis
play that would show up at night
from the outside. Since these
lights were installed, one in each
window, the store in the evening
now compares very favorably with
the building of the Donaldson Glass
block in Minneapolis when properly
lit up.
Our friend Gus Swanson of north
east of the city was in town the fore
part of the week and was so we'll
pleased with the crop threshed
this season that he placed an order
with H. M. Rowe & Co. for COM
plete hot water system to be in
stalled in his farm residence. This
residence was built two years ago
and is one of the most modern in
the north end of the county. Gus
wants to keep warm during the
coming winter, hence the order for
the new heating plant. The plant
was ordered a few days ago by H.
M. Rowe & Co., and as soon as it
arrives it will be installed.
The Albert Corey residence near
the ball park which +: being con-
structed by Contractor r. R. Schu-
dar is now almost completed. We
learn that it will be ready for occu-
pancy probably the latter pat: of
mex week.

atiye, 10th District.
Mr.. Endreson won the nomina-
ton for the Office of representative
against big odds last June, the three
other candidates for the same Office
having formed an alliance to de-
feat him. His qualifications for
the place as we'll as his many friends
throughout the district made him a
winner at the time. His name will
again come before the voters at the
general election, and all who believe
in clean politics, in sending good men
to Bismarck to the next session of
the legislature, men that can be de-
pended upon to do the right thing
by our constituents should by all
means vote for Mr.. Endreson.s He
will do his work in way that will
be q credit to the district.

FAV0RS FEDERAL CONTROL
Cotton Man Would Have Govern

Washington, April Achievement super
vision OF grain and cotton exchanges as the
relief from violent fuctuation in prices OF
commodities and the safeguard against uni
versal speculation and gambling was pro-
posed by w. B. Thompson. eX-president Of
the New Orleans Stock Exchange, who ap-
peared to-day before tie House Committee
on Agriculture in opposition TO the anti
option bills.
II believe you should standardize the
business methods Of dealing in cotton as
well as the grades Of cotton" said Mr..
Thompson. IF the exchanges will not
adopt your cotton grades, believe this
would be proper field for legislation" He
contended that future buying and selling
afforded the cotton dealers the hedging"
facilities needed to protect the cotton mar
ket. He said this protection extended to
both grower and spinner, and he predicted
an absolute destruction OF the business If
the exchanges were closed by the bills now
pending.
Other representatives Of the large cotton
exchanges referred to an argument made
by Chief Justice White when a United
States Senator in 1892, opposing the Wash
burn anti-option bill. in which he declared
II was class legislation and unconsttu-
tional.

Quotations for dressed beef issued yes

been made In nearly all cuts during the
week. First quality ribs and loins adj
vanced a cent in seven days. while rounds
and chucks went up half that amount.
Second grade cuts OF the same variety
were also up a cent for ribs and loins and
half a cent for rounds and chucks. Third
quality ribs and loins figure in the one
cent rise. while rounds and chucks re
NAMED the same in price.
According TO the figures given. ribs are
now worth 1871, IA and III cents pound,
according 10 the quality. Ioins, in the
same order, are quoted at the same figures,
while rounds are marked at II, II and

In the retail markets the prices for
beef, veal. mutton and lamb are from one
10 four cents higher than they usually are
at this time Of the year. No adequate
reason why such is the case was advanced
by the dealers except that they had TO

p-oxinately 100000 over the February
