HOW TO VOTE THE
COMPLEX BALLOT
Republicans Have the First Position
on Ballot While Progressives
Occupy the Last.
FIVE TICKETS ON THE BALLOT
Proqressives Must Cross Over in Or
der to Vote for Republican
County Candidates.

The official ballot to be used a
the election next Tuesday will b>
found on pages and 10 of this issue
There are five tickets represented OF
the ballot this year, and the position!
occupied by the different parties OF
the ballot are, republican first, demo
cratic second, prohibition third, social
ist fourth and progressive fifth. L
will thus be necessary for progress
live voter who wishes to vote for {
republican county candidate to come
clear across the ballot and mark the
square opposite the name he wishes
to vote for.
The national, state, district and
county tickets of both the republican
and democrats are complete with the
exception of two Offices on the re
publican county ticket, those of sher
iff and superintendent.
Under the existing laws, the names
of the different candidates for the
United States senatorship, like those
for the presidency, are not voted for
directly. The names of the different
candidates are not even printed on
the ballots, but voting must be done
for the candidates for the legislature.
Those voters who desire to cast a
ballot for the return of Senator Ken
yon to the senate may do so only by
voting for the republican candidates
for state senator and state represent
ative.
Voters who read the Review should
give the ballot careful consideration.
They should study it over in advance,
and determine how they are going to
vote. Responsibility for ones vote is
great indeed, for upon the choice Of
the people rests the destiny of the
nation. Upon it also rests the welfare
of the people, each and every one.
When you are looking over the ballot
consider it from the standpoint OF
real justice and equity. Don't consid-
er it from the standpoint of passion
and prejudice. Consider it from the
standpoint of your own personal well
fare If you do not vote in your own
interests no one else will do so for
you. Remembey what the republican
party has done for you in the past

Those interested in the Sabbath
school work of the county have been
pleased to hear that the English Sun
day schools recently inaugurated at
Ricketts, and Schleswig are in a most
flourishing condition. The attendance
at both is reported most satisfactory
and the teachers and officers enthus-
iastic. Rev. Nugent, the missionary

these schools were established, have
certainly shown zeal in this line of

LAWYER HARDING
LOSES LAND CASE
Supreme Court Of Idaho Reverses
Opinion Of Lower Court ami Es-
tabIishes Ownership Of Land
$50 ACRES OF LAND INVOLVED
Attorney Jacob Sims Represents the
Plaintiff and Judge EIwood Rep
resented Mr.. Harding.

The suit of Elnora e. Ainsworth
and her two sisters, Ida NJ. Mulheron
and Anna M. Adams, against P. W.
Harding, of this city, involving the
title to about $50 acres of land in the
state of Idaho, which has been pend
ing for several years, was determined
in the supreme court at Boise last
week in favor of the sisters. The
claim of the sisters in the case, as we
understand it, was that Caleb Squibb,
their father, who formerly resided in
Crawford county, living near Charter
Oak, but moved to Idaho several years
ago, died at GAINESVILLE, that state, in
the year 1905, leaving two sons, Jo-
seph and William, and these three sis
ters as his sole and only heirs at law.
The land involved in the action had
passed, by quit claim deed, from the
father to the son, Joseph, some two
months before the fathers death. The
sisters claim that in the summer of
1906 they employed Mr.. Harding to
go to Idaho to look after and recover
for them their interest in the estate
of their father, which they explained
consisted of both land and personal
property. He reported to them the
collection of little over $400 in cash,
and also obtained conveyance of this
land from the two brothers and took
the title in his own name, claiming to
have purchased it for himself. The
sisters, being dissatisfied, brought
action in the courts at BlackfOot, Ida
ho, and upon the trial thereof, some
two years ago, We're unsuccessful.
Upon appeal, however, to the supreme
court of that state an opinion was
handed down last week reversing the
Judgment of the lower court and estab-
fishing the ownership of the three
sisters in the land. Jacob Sims, of this
city, was attorney for the sisters, con-
Quoting the legislation on their behalf,
and Judge Elwood, of Sac City, repre-
sented Mr.. Harding.

SECURED The
BASIC PATENTS
AMERICAN GAS MACHINE co CON-
Trolls THE TWENTY-EleHT
BASIC PATENTS GOVERNING
ALL KINDS or GASOLINE
LIGHTING.

Albert Lea, Mimi, Evening Tribune:
The American Gas Machine Co. of this
city announces that it has acquired
control Of twenty eight basic patents,
all of vital ome to the gasoline
lighting manufacture OF the country,
as 1t Is understood that these patents
cover every principle embodied in gas
oline lighting in general. 1t is said
that there is no single lamp or piece
OF gasoline lighting apparatus that
does not infringe on one or more OF
these twenty-eight patents, and, there
fore, every manufacturer, seller and
user OF such Infringing apparatus is
held to be personally liable for dam
ages.
The company its inten-
tions of proceeding Immediately In the
courts against all the infringing con-
Germs, and will claim damages to the
full amount,
The patents secured are not Of the
ordinary kind, not relating to i'm
provements, ETC., in gasoline lighting,
but are said to be the underlying or
basic patents, covering the entire his
tory of the development of gasoline
lighting down to the present time. The
American Gas Machine Co. will not
only claim infringement by practically
every company now in the business,
but will ask full repayment for all APP
paratus manufactured and sold by
such companies in the past. Patent
attorneys and others who have exam
med these basic patents seem to agree
that h company has indisputable
control of the entire gasoline lighting
industry Of the United States.
1t is learned that the company will
be satisfied to allow any manufac-
turer of gasoline lighting apparatus
to continue in business except upon
certain terms. with a few exceptions,
The present companies doing business
in this line will be allowed to continue,
providing they pay the proper royal
ties to the owners of the basic letters
patents of the American Gas Machine
Co.
Pretended ownership by other com.
panies Of vital patents, which did not
in any way govern the principles of
gasoline lighting, together with the
persistent copying of its styles Of
lamps and apparatus, finally led the
American Gas Machine Co. to acquire
these patents and induced them to take
action in the courts, according to the
company's officials.
The American Gas Machine Co. is
admitted to be the practical pioneer in
the present day development of gaso-
line lighting, and it is the leading in
%stitution of the kind in the world. The
entire gasoline lighting business Of the
whole country will be henceforth con-
trolled from this city.

.STIMMEL TALKED
OF LINC0LN'S LIFE
WELL KNOWN FARGO ATTORNEY
WHO IS LAST SPEAKER ON LIN.
COINS LIFE FROM PERSONAL
OBSERVATION, DREW CROWD
AT FINeAL WEDNESDAY.

Smith Stimmel of Fargo and Cassel.
ton delivered an address Wednesday
night at Fingal on The Life Of Lin
coin from Personal Observation. He
drew a large crowd and was royalty
entertained while there. A large part
Of his audience was composed OF school
children who, by listening to Mr. Slim
mel, gained their information and inn
pressions of President Lincoln, first
hand from one who was closely assoc
ciated with the martyred president
through the greatest years Of his life,
Mr.. Stimmel Is perhaps the last
speaker on the American lecture plat
form who tells of Abraham Lincoln
from his own personal observation of
the rail splitter while he was in the
White House. The Fargo attorney,
whose home was in Grove City, o., a
suburb of Columbus, is the only sur
viving member of President Lincoln's
body guard and was with the presi-
dent all through the period of the
war. Mr.. Stimmel was by Lincoln's
side soon after the latter was assas-
sinated and helped to remove him to
the house where he died a few hours
later.
The Fargo attorney is deyoting his
time during the winter evenings to
speaking to the school children over
the state and telling them of Lincoln
and his life. This is something all
children cannot enjoy-a personal ac-
count of Lincoln's life and his man
nerisms and personality by one who
knew n saw him and spent four
years in his company. The school
children of North Dakota who avail
themselves of this opportunity to hear
Mr.. Stimmel have much that others
do not, in the way Of an educational
advantage.
