HBLLSTR0M AFTER
FEDERAL JOB
Warden Of tho State Penitent,arv
Wants to be United States
Marshal.

Minot, Nov. 27.-petitions have
been received here ODE circula-
ted in behalf Of F. o. Hellstrom,
warden of the state penitentiary
at Bismarck, and addressed to
Woodrow Wilson, president-elect,
requesting that he appoint Mr..
Hellstrom Unite States Marshal
for North Dakota.
1t is understood Mr.. Hellstroms
candidacy will not be endorsed
by the local emocrats as a local
candidate will probably receive
their endorsement. 1t would ap-
pear from the wording of the Pc
tition that Mr.. Hellstrom's candi-
dacy has not yet received the en-
dorsement of the state organiza-
tion, as under ordinary conditions
a petition of this kind would have
been addressed to the state CEN
trail committee, the ntional COM
mitteeman an to Governor Burke,
instead Of directly to the presi-
dent. Hellstrom would make a
splendid man for the position,
and the Bismarck Times hopes
that he will get the job.-The Bis
marck Times.

COMMITTED SUICIDE

Joseph Moe, age 27 years, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. A. Moe, of
Colfax township, committed sui
eide in his room in the hotel at
Christine some time during We'd
nesday night Of last week, by
shooting himself in the head with
a .32 caliber revolver.
Mr.. Moe was a bright young
man and had held the position OF
assistant cashier in the First
State Bank of Christine for over
a year, and his sad death has
cast a shadow over the entire
community. There appears to
be no cause for the rash act un-
less the young mans mind was
unbalanced at the time.
The funeral was conducted
from Richland church Monday
afternoon, Rev. Lunde officiating.
Sincere sympathy is extended
to the bereaved parents and other
relatives.

WASHINGTON LETTER
Dy Clyde q. Tavenner

Washington, Now, 30.-Every.
body wants to know about the
distribution of patronage under
the new administration. Every
member Of congress of democrat
ic faith is receiving inquiries and
applications by the hundred.
I came on to Washington at
an earlier date than I intended, to
try to discover the prospects of
what will be done in a general
way, but have found out nothing
valuable or tangiable. There is
much guessing and newspaper
talk, but that is all. All things
concerning the distribution Of
patronage are up in the air, so
to speak. President-elect Wilson
who is resting at Bermuda, has
not, so far as is generally known,
given any information of his in
tention on this subject. Nothing
definite will be known until he
speaks.
The only things certain at this
writing are:
4. President Taft has by exc
cutive order placed all the fourth
class postmasters under the civil
service, that is all postmasters
drawing less than $4,000 per an
mum. This means that the pres
ent fourth class postmasters will
hold for life, or during good be-
havior, unless President Wilson
revokes President Taft's order.
Whether he will revoke it nobody
knows.
2. Most Of the places worth
having except those which have
to be confirmed by the senate
have been for some time under
civil service. This greatly les
sens the number Of positions
formerly available.
8. For twenty years the Gus
tom has been for federal officials
appointed for four years, such al
postmasters, U. s. marshals, etc.
to serve out their terms unless

Clitheral. The Junior member,
Mr.. A. E. Johnson, has been a
bank cashier at Clitheral for q

leadership Of Evangelist Ralph
Carleton of Winona are being

On Sunday night last when Mr..
Carleton spoke from the theme,
''The objectionable Sin" he was

under protestant auspices. At the
close Of the sermon five or six
converts were reported.
On Friday night of this week
Mr.. Carleton will deliver a SER

ATHLETICS IN Eng
LAND AND AMERICA
Extension Lecture BY Dean Robert
L. Henry Of tho North Dakota
University Law School.

Opinions may vary as to the
value of athletics in connection
with the work of our schols and in
stitutions, but one thing is very
apparent and that is that these
manly sports have come to stay.
Our real problem is how to make
use of them to the best advan-
tage, no VITO regulate them SO
that they will be productive Of
greater good. o 'nthis question,
the experience Of the English col
leges is very Illuminating, and the
comparisons that may be drawn
by one who has observed much
on both sides of the Atlantic will
be very instructive. In the course
of the lecture Athletics in Eng
land and America" Dean Robert
l.. Henry of the University of
North Dakota law school gives a
great deal of inside fcats regard
ing athletics at two great uni
versities, one American and one
English.
The lecture is to be given in
the high school auditorium We'd
nesday evening, December II, un-
er the auspices of the Wahpeton
Athletic association.
AS a leading athlete during the
student days at Chicago Universi-
ty, Dean Henry is we'll prepare to
discuss this question. During
the four years Of his course he
held place on the track team
that represented that institution
in the conference meets and won
fame and many points as a long
distance runner. AS cheer leader
at the university he proved a real
stimulator of enthusiasm. Dur
ing period o fthree years, 1905
1906 and 1907, as a Rhodes schol
ar at Oxford, he had an excellent
opportunity to observe all phases
Of student life at that institution
and to study conditions as they
are in all Englendane, ,asO Ocgkqyp
are in all England. Testimony on
matters pertaining to sports that
comes from the lips of an expert
is always worth listening to. Re-
member the place and date.

All the tobacco manufacturers

During the Spanish American war
there was a tax on tobacco, but
the sales did not decrease to any
noticeable extent.
The bill provides for the tax Of
1879 to continue for five years.
At the expiration of that time the
government will not only have
enough to build the $4,000 mile
system, but a reserve fund which
will be used to buidl more roads
in each Of the five national parks.

a special representative of the
associated motor clubs and Cot
trell Morgan, a noted road engi-
neer, who is making q technical
stud yof highway work, in several
of the northwestern states, are
now in Fargo, in the interests Of
the good roads, and in speaking
Of road conditions in North Da-
kota, Mr.. Campbell said:
From the statistics at hand it
is shown that the roads in this
country are built too cheaply, and
that when signs of deterioration
become apparent the upkeep and
maintenance charges become ex-
cessive and eventually your high
way goes to pieces under the con-
slant pounding and pulling of the
haevy traffic, caused principally
by the motor car and motor
truck.
I'm this section you spend from
900 to $4,000 per mile to build
q road and three times that to
maintain it. In the east they build
roads costing from $4,000 to
ste, 900 per mile and practically
nothing to maintain them. The
New York state roads are built
of rock and natural lake asphalt
and the thought in mind in build
ing them is permanency. Your
roads do not even suffice for the
requirements of present day trav-
els, not to speak of the constan-
tly increasing traffic of the fu-
ture."- Bismarck Palladium.

SCIENCE SCHOOL MoTEe

The winter term enrolment
was made Tuesday and an unus-
ual number of new students pre-
sented themselves for the mechan
ical work.
A new piano has been placed
in the upper parlor of Burch Hall
to accommodate the girls who take
music. This makes four pianos
in all as the faculty ladies have
two in their rooms.
A good numebr of the students
are in the oratorio which has been
organized in the new conserva-
tory of music
Thanksgiving vacation was a
quiet one at the school. Only
three of the girls remained at
Burch Hall and about five boys
at their dormitory.
Professor Taylor was a visitor
to Fergus Falls Monday.
The band has received several
accessions TO the new enrolment
much to the qualification of Mr..
Warren, for he likes a large band.
A new Uhl Art Steel typewriter
table and cabinet has been added
to the library equipment, making
an improvement in both appear
ance and convenience.
President and Mrs. Smith spent
Thanksgiving with Mr.. Emerson
Smith in Fargo. On Friday Mr..
Smith met the committee on leg
islation at Fargo.
The board of trustees have a
meeting at the school on Thurs
day, December S, for routine
business and general plans of the
school.
New classes for this term are
to be organized in agriculture,
steam engineering, soils, civics,
commercial law, art needlework,
ornamental penmanship, physics,
and spherical trigonometry.
Mr.. B. F.. Hovind of Lacrosse,

The shorthand room has been
reseated an nine new desks ad-
ded. These places are all taken
and more than as many more
could be used.
The question of room for the
students who want to come to the
Science Schcool is becoming a ser
ious one. The people of the town
have been obliged to open their
homes to roomers and still the
demand seems to exceed the sup
ply. The dining room at Burch
Hall has been readjusted twice to
get in more tables and still sew
eral have been turned away. It
looks at present as though boys
dormitory of ample size was an
immediate necessity if we are to
take care of the young people who
are looking to the state for op-
portunities to secure an educa-
ton.

SMOKERS TO PAY
FOR HIGHWAY
u. . Blil introduced BY Congress
man vvarburton Of Tacoma
Becomes q Law.

Every cigar and cigarette smok
er in North Dakota will be COM
pelled to contribute toward a huge
fund for the building of a national
military system Of highways, if a
bill about to be introduced in
Washington by Congressman Stan
ton Warburton of Tacoma, be-
comes q law, and it is said there
is every likelihood that it will.
Congressman Warburton's bill
provides for the building of a six
teen foot natural lake asphaltic
highway connecting the capitol of
every state with the nations capi-
tol.
To raise the eomnyandl c,rcetw
To raise the money for such
q gigantic scheme the bill pro-
vides for the restoring Of the in
ternal revenue tax of 1879 on to-
bacco and snuff. This means the
smoker of North Dakota who now
pays ten cent sfor a cigar or If
teen cents for a box Of cigarettes
will be compelled to either pay
more money or else have the quail
ity of the goods lessened. The
paper pouch or tin of smoking or
cehcwing tobacco for which one
now pays ten or fifteen cents, will
undergo some change on the part
of the manufacturer which will
be apparent to the consumer.
Perhaps some of the fancy tin
foil or printing which now occu-
pies such a conspicuous place in
package sof cigarettes and tobac-
co will be lacking or else some
change will be affected by the man
ufacturer which will be noticeable
to the consumer.
The road will be built with the
idea of its permanency in mind,
and every effort will be made by
the government engineers to re-
duce the cost of maintenance that
is the greatest burden on the tax
payers today in the way Of high
way work.
The bill provides that the high
way cost between $4,000 and
S25, 200 per mile. This supposed
: ly high cost is due to the impor-
tation Of the natural asphalts
from Berumdez Lake in Venezu-
ella and from Trinidad Island in
the British West Indies; and also
: to the form of construction which
will be used to Withstand the con-
stantly increasing traffic, caused
principally by the motor car and
1 motor truck.
The building of this road will
be supervised by the engineers of
the United States government and
the standard eastern speciflca-
tions will probably be adopted
without modification.
The road will be uniform thru
out and will be able to withstand
the heaviest kind of traffic. To
meet these traffic requirements

their terms. Whether this custom
will be continued it is impossible
I'd say.
"a. President Taft is said to
have declared his intention to flll
Ian vacancies as soon as they oc-
cur. But whether the senate will
confirm his appointees, or hold
up their nominations, it is iru-
possible to even guess.
S. The custom has been for
the patronage Of any particular
state to be distributed through
the senator's and representatives
thereof who are of the same po-
litical persuasion as the admin
istration, if any such there be,
and if none such, then through
the national committeeman OF
some dependable friend or friends
Under that arrangement represen
tatives are depended upon to rec
ommend postmasters in their own
districts while senator's are de-
pended upon to recommend post
masters in congressional districts
not represented by congressman
Of the same political faith as the
president. Senators are also de-
pended upon to recommend for
marshalships and Offices of that
kind, including departmental po-
sitions and places in the consul
Tar and diplomatic service, and
in fact all Offices not local. OF
course, as a rule, the senators
consult with representatives in
these matters, all trying to do the
most possible for their constitu-
ents.
6. What scheme for selecting
postmasters, etc., President Will
son and his cabinet may adopt
is wholly conjectural. Some ad-
vocate one plan and some anoth-
er. Consequently it might be the
best for those intending to be ap-
plicants to let matters rest until
the situation clears up somewhat;
but where one or more aspirants
for = particular place start in to
secure signers to petitions, recon
mendations, etc., it might be wise
for all aspirants to do so too.
It has been figured out by some
of the newspaper correspondents
in the national capitol that Mr..
Wilson, when he enters the White
House on March 4, will find that
he has the power to fill directly
1O,839 government positions.
They declare the appointive
places requiring confirmation are
divided as follows:
Departments: State, All; the
treasury, 1856; war Excluding ar
N.Y. g.; justice, 3s3; postofflce,
1888; navy Excluding officers)
IL; interior, 272; agriculture
8; commerce and labor, (exclud-
ing census) 20; civic service COM
mission, 4; government printing
office, 4; interstate commerce com
mission, Z, and library of con-
|gress, 4.
The places not requiring con-
flrmation by the senate are thus
divided:
Departments: State, %; JUS
tice, $40; interior, a.; commerce,
8: civil service commission, 4.

ing been honored by the House by being appoint

to it. AS result Of this, the most important in

structive legislation would doubtless be enacted at

these people have not under the law to-day right
to sue to recover it. The Committee has recon-
mended for passage the Bill of Mr. Byrnes grant
ing the rightful owners the right to recover and
this Bill is now On the calendar. In the Omnibus
Claims Bill he has succeeded in having included
appropriation of thousands of dollars to pay judg
ments secured by Churches in the Second Dis
trct during the past ten years for the occupancy
of their buildings by Federal troops during the
war. For number of Confederate veterans,

rendered. he has secured payment MIR. Byrnes'
stated he has assisted in securing many new R.
F. D. routes in the District, and was now work
ing on several petitions in which hewas interested.
Believing that economy like charity should be-
gin at home he voted to cut down the expenses
of the House, which resulted in saving of
S1Soooo year, and had voted with his party as
sociates, for economies in all the appropriation
bills, as result of which, when the session ended
it would be shown that the appropriations were
millions less than the last Congress.

they will be responsible to the people instead OF
to the corporations; because last year the people

appears elsewhere asking us to allow them to
vote on this question: because the Democratic
platform of 1908 demanded the election Of Sena-

ate as principle of the party the direct election
Of Senators by the people and commend the ac-

Before man can ruin for Congress in the
Democratic Primary in this State he must sign
pledge as follows: Il also pledge myself to
support the political principles and policies of the
party during tile term Of office for which | may
be elected and work in accord with my Demo-
cratic associates in Congress on all party ques-
tons" This being in the platform, it was party
question, and as the overwhelming majority OF
nv Democratic associates voted for it, under my
party pledge | had to vote for it. Mr. Calhoun
bv implication tells you he would not trust you to
vote on such matter; that he prefers that the
Legislatures and not the people shall say who the
Senators shall be: that he would desert the Demo-
cratic platform, violate the solemn pledge he has
signed within the past few weeks, and disregard
and dsobey the instructions of the people of his
