SIMPSON AS

Was Every Bit Man; Worked
in the Ranks, Wouldn't Ac-
cept Any Special
Privileges.

In the Lennon herald of February y
appeared the following very compliment
tary notice Of Senator L. A. Simpson.
candidate for the nomination OF Con-
gresham in the Third Congress sional
district:
Col. Chas. E. Showers, of Wheatland.
N. D., was visitor to his children for
few days, and on his return Wednes-
day. made the Herald a pleasant call.
Col. Showers is an enthusiastic admirer
of Leslie A. Simpson, the we'll known
and popular confessional candidate for
western North Dakota district, of Dick
inson. Mr.. Showers expressed himself as
follows:
"Yes, have known the Senator for
some time, but my more intimate ac-
quaintance with him. and my appre-
citation of his high worth as a man
dates from the time of the Spanish
American war when he and we're COM
rades in the Grigsby Rough Riders. Un-
der Capt. Nugent. We were members of
the troop enlisted at Fargo. On leav-
ing Fargo, we commissioned officers.
six of us. had q whole Pullman to our
selves. the rest of the troop BEING
crowded into two cars. Capt. Nugent
Immediately put in force the West
Point principle of the officers isola-
tion from the rank and file, although we
felt deeply that many a fine man was
serving in the ranks, who had follow
ed tie country's call from the very high
est social business or official positions.
Among these had in mind Private Les
lie Simpson, the bright scholarly and
capable lawyer and statesman from
Stark county. We prevailed on Capt.
Nueent to allow him and one or two
others little privacy by having them
occupy berths in our sleeper during the
night. When Simpson was told of this,
he said, mo sir, thank you. have
enlisted as prsvate, and as private
stay in the place consistent with my
rank. have not come in tU take ad-
vantage over the heads of the Others,
and am going TO be as good private
as can be. but ready to do what am
expected to do, whatever it is. AS to
special privileges. want none; and if
they are offered me. cannot and shall
not accept them. If l receive any pro-
motions, shall feel that have earned
them for merit strictly from the SOL
dier's veiw points" And he was true to
this high minded statement from first
to last Many time have seen him
do the most repugnant work of the
camp. digging in bitches, disposine of
the reek and offal of large camp, and
always as cheerful, as devoted and
conscientious about it as if in all'his life
he knew no higher aim, no end more
ideal. He went in as a private. and
no wonder he came out sergeant
and the idol of his troop. In all his
walk and conversation he was inspira-
tion to good soldiesship, and a daily
factor in tightening the burde ms of
others.
Mr.. Simpson is The ideal western gen.
tleman, and as 10 his statesmanly
ability. that speaks for itself. He is
the only logical candidate for Congress
in the west part of the state ind be-
lieve the people are going to give him
the rousing majority which he de-
serves.

A MEMORABLE DATE

Chicago, May 4.-veterans Of the
Chicago police force today joined in
the customary observance of the an
niversary of the two most memorable
events in the history of the depart
ment. Twenty-six years ago today
occurred the Haymarket riot, in which
six policemen met death and so others
were MANNED by bombs thrown by
anarchists Three years later, on May
4, 1889, DR.. Patrick H. Cronin, the
Irish nationalist agitators, was lured
to hte Carlson cottage in North Ash
land avenue, and murdered. Deaths
of those connected with the trials
subsequent to these tragedies have
been numerous, most of them unnat-
ural -
