Fear Pope Is
Near Death

Rome, April 16.-Once again there
has been a sudden change in the con.
dition of Pope Plus X. 1t is changes
such as this that have repeatedly
transformed the feeling Of optimism
regarding the Pope's recovery into
one Of grave anxiety. In the knowl-
edge that each recurrence withdraws
something from the vital forces Of the
holy father.
Notwithstanding the reassurances of
Prof. Marchiafava, a careful watch is
being kept on the vatican and Their is
some doubt that the satisfactory gen.

doctors reported, is borne out by the

Grand Forks Man
Ground to Death

= Grand Forks, N. D., April 12.-Jo.
seph Lobsinger met an accidental
death at Crookston yesterday at $40
He was run over by train coming
from the west while he was returning
from fruitless endeavor to catch a
freight train bound for Grand Forks.
He was found about a. m. by Tom
Hunt, engineer on special from East
Grand Forks running into Crookston.
His body is badly mangled. Both legs
were crushed and broken and his
head is cut at eleven different places.
His jaw is broken.
Mr.. Lobsinger went to Crookston
with w. E. Handy, the Northern Pact
ic agent in this city, to audit some
1910 accounts. The work had not been
completed so both decided to stay
over. Mr.. Lobsinger, however, later
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1913-04-17

decided to catch freight train leav
ing Crookston for Grand Forks at
lis. He desired to get to Grand
Forks as soon as possible on account
of his wife being sick with pleurisy.
The theory advanced is that he went
to the hill west of Crookston to catch
the freight and went to sleep waiting
for it. When he woke up he found
that he had missed the train, and
started back to the city In the out
skirts Of the city he was struck by a
train coming from the west. He was
dragged about sixteen feet. When
found by the crew of the special train
at 5:55 his body was still warm and
he was still bleeding. His watch had
stopped at Sal, that evidently being
the time he was struck by the train.

THE GROSS OF GOLD"

Announcement that "Coin' Harvey pro- poses to run for congress in Arkansas is interesting chiefly as recalling flood of memories of perhaps the mos, exciting na- tional campaign in the nut!cns history, the contest of 1896 when Ccl,ncl Bryan secured the Democratic presidential nomination by his "crown of thorns and cross of goid' speech at the Chicago conveHgIcn and the entire country was torn by political Gissen- sions.
 Coin Haryey'S Financial Schoor vas practically the campaign text beck of the Democrats and Populsts and Free Silver Republicans and the other parties and parts of parties that were carried away by the Is to craze The Populists, checred by their success in many Western states in 1892 and 1894, joined the Democrats, and national prominence to ''Sockless' Jerry Simpson, Peffer with his whiskers, General Coxey, Buffalo" Jones, Mary Ellen Lease, Anna Dggs, David Loucks, Bloody Bri- Gles' Waite, George Fred Williams, Tom Watson, Ign2tius DonneIIy, Honest John" Powers. Crazy Horse Van Wyck, "Wiady Bill" Allen, and all the glad and merry comrades who joined in the crusade of '96, many of whom were men and women of the highest ability, with integrity unsues- tioned, but who were as unreasonable as dervighes in their fanatical devotion to sil yer and their peerless leader"
 It is generally admitted now that if the electcn in 1896 had been held in Septem- Der MT Bryan would have been elected by 8 big majority over Major Mckinley. He had invaded the enemys country and aroused an enthusiasm among the people of New England that struck terror to the hearts of the business interests of the coun- try, welded to high protection and the gold standard. and developed Mark Hanna, unquestionably the wlsest political leader the country had seen at that time. It is probable that MT. Bryan would have been elected. in spite of the concerted action of the business interests, had he not attacked the supreme court of the, United States. The country was not then ready for criti cism of the courts, the recall of judges and judicial decisions The farmers and the old fashioned folks began to find their enthusi- asm for MT Bryan tinged with fear of his radicalism, and upon this point Mr Hanna pounded the way to Republican victory.
 That's all over and history now, but is recalled by Coin" Harveys announcement of his desire to return to the lmellght. It is interesting in this connection to note that practically every plank of the Populst plat forms of 1892 and 1926, with the exception of free silver, has since been enacted into legislation or is being urged by one or both of the big political parties of today,-Ta- coma Tribune.

FROM TEXAS.

AS to the peculiarities of Texas
they are quite numerous interesting
and sometimes enjoyable (but not al
ways.) to one born and raised in the
mountains of Eastern Kentucky. The
lands in this part OF Texas consists
of low hills rolling and flat praries
and bottom lands well drained by
branches and creeks into Red riv-
er. The creek banks are generally
high and the channelsdeep and boggy
making bridges indispensable to the
travelling public.
There has been about $150000 ap-
propriated by county bonds for grad

itants about 10 miles northeast of
Sherman on Red river. And many

The climate seems hard for me
to describe. To me there seems to
be but two long seasons winter and
summer. So gradual Is the change
from one to another winter seems
to begin at about the list of Nov.
at leaf fall and summer the 1st Of
May at full leafing. The winds In
winter are more intolerable than the
cold. The gentle breezes in sum-
mer are very pleasant and cooling.
There is but little real sultry wealth
