SAYS The TRUSTS
CAN'T Be CURBED

THE trusts cannot be busted said
Mrs. Mia upper MAYNARD before an
audience which practically filed Turner
hall last night. and the efforts Of the
reformers &c dissolve them are bound
to be futile. Trusts are a natural out
come of competition, and it is too late
now to go back to the old days of COM
petition" The speaker, brought here
under the auspices Of local socialists.
nificant puppy dog running behind the
trust train in an effort to catch il,
ard inquired as to what the pup would
DO when il caught the train. She said
that Oh the back platform of the train
was Roosevelt, being carried right
along with the trusts.
She denounced Roosevelt, and said
he knew it was impossible to dissolve
the trusts, and ali he had done was to
make a grandstand play. She said
that ". J. Bryan's idea was to make
the trusts smaller and go back to the
days of competition, but stated that
this was impossible; that after some

PEOPLE SHOULD OWN.
She brought out the fact that the
watchword of today is combination
and that there are no legal efforts be-
ing made to stop it, Because of COM
petition people of a certain occupation
have been driven to unite with others
in their line of business as a matter
of protection. Political platforms have
in the past promised to bust" the
trusts, but this has not been done in
a single instance, and cannot be done.
The socialists are in favor of having
the trusts owned collectively by the
people, and of eliminating exploita-
ton, but in her opinion this would
never come to pass until socialism
rules.

you place upon the ground Climb TO
the top of the ladder and then pull it
slowly up toward you. stepping down
ward upon the rungs until you reach
the bottom of it. Mount to the top
again and repeat the process, thus rails

scend to the lowest rung. and continu-
ing alternately to ascend and descend

Come down In the same manner, and

Mrs. Burke, the widow of Veteran
John Burke. died at her home in this
city on Saturday afternoon, the end com
ing quite unexpectedly to the deceased S
relatives and friends, as she had been up
and around. apparently in her usual
health up to a couple of days before she
died. Mrs. Burke, whose husband was
a highly respected veteran of the civil
war, who died here about ten years ago,
was one of the few remaining old pioneer
residents of Langdon back in the early
days and in her passing from this life
many will miss one whose neighborly
kindness will not soon be forgotten. The
funeral was no held until Tuesday fore
noon in order to enable her daughter
Mrs. E. A. McCay, to reach here from
Upton, Sask. The deceased was a de-
voute Catholic and was in attendance
at church the Sunday before she died.
) D. G. Mcintyre, father of Attorney w
A. Mcintyre, died Monday at the Fargo
hospital, where be was under treatment
SINCE being seized with an attack of
heart trouble about a week ago.. The
end came with alarming suddenness as
Attorney Mcintyre had been to Fargo,
an oyer Sunday visitor at the bedside of
his father. leaving on the early morning
train for Langdon with a full assurance
that his father would be we'll enough to
return home in g few days. Mr.. McIn-
tyre left his wife and their little boy IN
Fargo with his father, they being at the
bedside when the final came.
The remains we're brought to Langdon
on Tuesdays train but the funeral from
the M. b. church was deferred d,ill
yesterday afternoon at three u'cio.% ia
order to allow relatives from a distance
reaching here. The deceased had for
several years made his home here, was
in his seventy-fifth year and left the
city two weeks ago to attend the wedding
of a daughter of an old friend living in
the vicinity of Fargo.
