Mr.. F'olger in his address took the
position that The Sky Pilot, a term
that was at first used in a derisive
manner among the lumber men in the
north west and arose from the book
of that name by Conner, really meant
a man who would pilot mankind
through the wickedness of the world
into the higher life and at last land
the man in heaven. He said that
Jesus Christ was the really Sky Pilot.
Mr.. Folger at times was quite eloquent,
and his description of the engineer
who was running owe a new road
with a pilot was a mastery piece of
work. 1t was a fine address.

JOHN BURKEs PROGRAMME.
Gov. John Burke has a programme the people OF North pa
kota well know. They know the Burke programme 50 well that
they have voted for it at every opportunity. Governor Burke
handed his programme to Mr.. Hellstrom and is asking the peo-
pie of North Dakota to vote for Mr. HeHstrom it they wish the
Burke programme continued. The Burke programme has been to
have Frank O. Helstrom as one of the met important parts OF it.
The peoples governor guarantees that the peoples interests will
be safeguarded by the same programme in the hands OF Mr.
Helstrom as in the past six years.
Evidence in the form Of facts and figures shows that Mr..
Helstrom has saved the farmers hundreds Of thousands Of dollars
in the price of binder Irvine by placing the prison factory in
sharp competition with the Internationa Harvester company,
caused that big trust that is supporting Colonel Roosevelt to sell
Irvine in North Dakota at a great deal lower figure than in states
where it has no such competition.
HELLSTROM IA REFORMER.
The National Prison Reform association bears testimony
that Warden Hellstrom is foremost in the ranks of prison re-
formers, and besides that, has made the state prison a profitable
institution.
At no time has testimony been introduced against Mr..
Helstrom to show that he is not thoroughly qualified to admins
ter the public affairs of North Dakota.
At no time has testimony been introduced to show that the
programme of Governor Burke, which is the same programme
for Mr.. Hellstrom, has not been satisfactory to the people,
Mr.. Helstrom and the John Burke programme have not
been found wanting in any way.
And there are the other candidates on the democratic ticket
who stand for the same programme, they are intergral parts OF
UP II JURY.
Thus, testimony and evidence have been presented in state
and nation to the jury, the jury of the American people.
The jury now has the case IT will decide from the evidence
submitted which candidate and which programme is for the best
interests of the people. And the jury, being composed of the
great masses of the common people, after weighing all the evil
dence, can come to but one conclusion-the conclusion that the
men best qualified to serve their interests, the programme best
suited to their needs, are to be found in the democratic party, a
party of the common people, united and determined that justice
and right is the heritage of all mankind.
Having faith in the absolute fairness of the great masses
of the American people we submit our case, believing that the
verdict will be in our favor.

There has been a great deal of dis
satisfaction over the referee who has
been officiating at the matches in Sas-

ot1ctated when KilbHne fought Lucca
recently:
TT was the most unfair piece of
business ever perpetrated in the ring.
Tom Mortarity, 1T is a cinch, will never
referee any big goes here again."
he ts the same man who on more
thar one occasion handed Kossick a
lemon in decisions, making II appear as
though no American could get a square
deal in Saskatoon.
"Pard" continues: Blu wait. Tommy
kilbane is going to appear here again.
He n Leo Kossick, two of the most
gentlemanly boys in the ring, are to
exchange wallops next Wednesday

mouths of the boxing fans will be re-

ever boxed here and he Is certainly
admired for his tactics

the National Sporting club of Winni-
peg, has been engaged as matchmaker
Tor the Saskatoon club, and that he has
secured the services of Bun Foley TO

MR.. BUCKS TESTIMONY.

Robert N. Buck, a special investigator, introduced records
Of the state senate and mouse OF representatives TO prove that Mr..
Hanna, as a member of those Legislative bodies. ALWAYS stood
with special privilege interests, the Alex Mckenzie machine,
and against the people.
Former political associates and running mates with Mr.
Hanna have borne witness that he double crossed them. traded
them off for votes for himself.
Copies of anonymous circulars sent to hotel men through
out the state urging them to support Mr.. Hanna have been intro
duced as prima faca evidence that Mr.. Hanna, in return for
votes, promises to change the hotel inspection programme Of
Gov. John Burke SO as to nulhfy the hotel inspection law that
now protects the thousands of hotel patrons.
HANNA COULD MAKE MONEY.
Evidence has been introduced to show that Nj. Hanna. a. 4
banker-goyernor, could manipulate the deposit Of millions Of
state funds 50 that they would be placed in the banks in which he
is interested and thereby multiply his already great wealth with
interest on the peoples money.
AT every turn in the case before the jury Of voters MT. Hanna
and the Hanna press, which comprises 95 per cent Of publicity
organs in the state, have not even tried to combat the evidence
with SO much as q denial OF cross exanination. They have al

Of the savings device of the woman to I
which reference Is made.
Plans for making Washington a busI-
ness center of more Importance than
II now Is are engaging the attention Of
several local men OF finance. A year
ago or more local capitalists and others
perfected the Incorporation of the Com
merctal Fire Insurance Company as a
national institution, where II had hither-
to been only District of Columbia in
stitution. Its capital stock was raised
to N,000000, its charter was revised, and
the company started a general fire in
surance business outside of Washing
ton. The results were such as to war
rant similar operations on larger
scale, and the First National Fire In
surance Company of the United States
is now proposed, with central Offices
here and branches In all the States and
in the principal cities of the Union. At
present the proposed company is in the
formative stage, with several local
flnanclers interested. II the plans arc
carried out 1t will eventuate in a large
national fire insurance company with
affiliations throughout the nation and
standing with the largest fire insurance
concerns in the country. r.
The effect of such an institution upon
Washington would be to establish here
the central offices of a company like the
Aetna, of Hartford, with large and in
creasing premium list bringing big sums
of money to the Capital to seek invest
ment ana oil the machinery OF DuSl-
ness. 1t is really the first serious at
tempt made by Washington men to
make Washington a true financial CEN
ter. With such company in full ope-
ration many million dollars would come
here every year in the shape of pre-
miums on insurance, first for deposit In
the local banks and then for Investment
in real estate and such other ways as
are allowable with the funds of such
institutions. 1t would place Washington
at once in the commercial city class.
much larger volume of business than
has ever been possible under existing
conditions.
1t is intimated by observant financiers
that one Of the explanations of the re-
cent somewhat rapid rise of the
securities of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company is that
there will be open and formal
Virginia Electric Railway Company.
which owns and operates the Washing
ton, Alexandria and Mt. Vernon lines.
The same head conducts the affairs of
both now, and the financial arrange
ments necessary for the union of the
properties would not take long in the
making. The Washington company
would be strengthened, as would the
Virginia company, and the properties
offices as easily as from two.
The official heads of the two con-
Germs will not admit that such a plan
| is approaching elimination, but among
financial men some such scheme is de-
clared to be not only under consider
alton, but actually in process Of in
cubation.
