DIR. EAVES RESENTS
 LANES STATEMENT
Says Tuberculosis Camp Has Never x Refused Patient Because He
 Was Unable to Pay
ro the Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 There's a good law saying Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neigh bor." Of later date Is many modern law along the same lines. But this morn ing The Age Herald has put in circula- tion the statement that this association refused to take a patient who had no money and who appealed in vain to the city commission. and that therefore the commission had decided to cut it's month- ly allowance.
 That statement I want to brand as a whole-cloth fabrication, calculated to do harm and only harm. Your representa- tive points to Judge Lane as its author. I cannot think 1t possible that Judge Lane intended to say what he seems to say. Whoever says that this associa- ton has rejected applicants because they were poor is slandering me personally, who am, fin the last analysis, responsi- ble for issuing certificates of admission; slandering the association. whose ser want I am proud to be. and slandering the executive committee, an honorable body to whom am most immediately responsible
 What are the facts?
 1. That we are constantly carrying more indisent patients than our county appro- priation covers.
 ?. That I challenge all the commission CTS. all the city. dnd all the world to produce the name or person of one man who has been refused admission to our sanatorium because he was unable to pay just one.
 g. That in August we had 2i on-paying and half-pay patients. while the ap- propriation designated for that purpose provided only for Is non-paying patients. and a like excess in September
 {. That the only. people we have kept waiting. except when the camp was over flowing. have been those who brought neney and socisI pressure to bear on

BIsMARcKER SECURED THE AZ
Att. P0INTMENT OF WATKINS
AS CONSTABLE,

BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. Be. G.
Patterson has joined hands with F. L.
Watkins, superintendent of the En-
forcement league, and will give the
latter every assistance in cleaning up
the gambling joints, the blind pigs
and the dives in this city and county.
On his motion the county commission
ers today unanimously appointed Wat
kins as constable with power to act
anywhere in Purleigh county.
It had been claimed that Patter-
son as commissioner and as a mem.
Der Of the city commission had not
been active in suppressing the pigs.
The county republican committee re-
Gently adoptd resolutions strongly in
favor of enforcing the law. Mr.. Pat
terson stated he wanted that platform
carried out and thought the best way
to have it done was by making Wat
kins constable. This will give the ell
forcer power to make his own arrests
and he can't be handicapped then
by alleged dilatory action on the part
Of either the police or other officials.
County Treasurer Kositzky knocked
Commissioner Patterson down yester-
day afternoon, as the latter was walk
ing in hall way. The friends of Pat
terson say he was walking alo with
his hands in his pockets when Koitz-
ky struck him from behind. The
friends Of the treasurer say he won
in general mix-up.

CAME TO TH1s COUNTY IN 1889
AND SETTLED ON HOMESTEAD,
= HIS HOME AT REATH.

Phil Manseau, who has resided in
Ramsey county for the past thirty
years, and is one Of the best known
pioneers Of this section, died this
morning at his home four miles south
Of Devils Lake, death coming rather
suddenly, Mr.. Manseau having paid a
visit to Devils Lake yesterday morn
ing, when he talked to friends in the
same happy manner that has marked
his career through life.
Mr.. Manseau recently suffered what
he thought was .umor and had just
returned from Rochester where he had
J been for treatment, while his health
was not the best he seemed to with.
stand the suffering and never finched
or betrayed his sturdy character until
called by the grim messenger this
morning. The end came suddenly and
if he had suffered prior to death, no
one knew what suffring he had, for
Mr.. Manseau was never known to com.
plain.
The deceased is one Of the prosper.
Gus farmers of Ramsey county, first
coming to this section in 1882, from
Montreal, Canada, and settling on a
homestead, where he lived during the
thirty years residence here, on one of
the best farms in Ramsey county.
Mr.. Manseau was friend of every.
body. None knew him who would not
speak a good word for him and CON
siderable sadness is cast over the
community by his death. He was
ffty-seven years old. Funeral arrange
ments were not completed today, but
will be announced later.
