Negro Drowned
In Bullion Creek
Jones Attempted to Cross Turbu-
lent Creek on Horseback and
Was Drowned According to
the Sentinel Butte Republican.

''Nigger" Jones as he was COM
monty known in his locality, was
drowned in Bullion Creek near
Alpha, twenty miles south of here,
on Monday, last week. He was
seen to ride his horse into the
creek at about ten o clock a. M,
and when the animal started to
swim, the rider left the horse and
was washed down the stream,
while the animal swan ashore
and galloped off. At the time
it was not known who the man
was but the horse was found to
belong to Jones. and as he had
left home that morning and has
not been seen since, it is taken
for granted that he was drowned.
The Bullion is usually a small
stream, easily crossed at almost
any point, but at this time of the
year it becomes a turbulent river
and has an exceedingly swift cur
rent. About four years ago a
man was drowned in the same
vicinity while trying to cross with
team and wagon.

DR.. c. c. Creegan, President of
Fargo College, Gave An Ad-
dress at the High School Audi
torium Last Tuesday.

Dr.. Creegan dwelt on the nee.
essity for physical training in his
opening remarks. He believed
in a healthy body as we'll as a
sound mind. He said among
other things. Fifty years ago a
gymnasium would have been
looked upon as horrible depar.
ture from classical training. even
at a University like Harvard. To.
day no institution however small
can claim any standing among
educational institutions without
one"
He said that along with physi.
cal training must come mental
training. The quick decisions. the
alert eye, which comes with sci.
enti6c games are valuable assets
for practical life. A strong body
is prerequisite for intellectual
endurance.
He then spoke along the line.
Of intellectual training. He com.
pleSented the school on making
that training practical.
He closed with a magni6cen,
appeal for spiritual growth anc
development which is SO otter

The company has supplied the

These engines are in the 100
series and are the largest which
have ever been seen on this part
Of the road. They weigh about
80 tons more than the average
engine and will haul about 400
tons more than those now in use.
They are equipped with all the

Wilson Creates Precedent
By Reading Own Message

Washington. April 8.-Presi-
dent Wilson reverted to a custom
of a century ago in reviving a pre-
cedent by which congress heard
from the lips of the chief execu-
tive his message to the national
legislature.
Official Washington prepared
for the event with a feeling more
of curiosity than criticism. Sen
timent az to the political wisdom
of the move has hardly crystal
lized as the procedure of early
days is the only historical record
so far as modern legislature is
concerned.
The galleries were packed by
the wives. families and friends of
representatives and senators, two
hours before the president appear
ed.
Admiral Dewey was escorted
to a seat on the floor. He was
cheered as he entered the cham
Der.
President Wilson began his
message as follows:
Il am very glad. indeed to
have this opportunity to address
the two houses directly and YER
ify for myself the impression that
the president of the United States
is a person and not a mere de-
partment of government, hailing
congress from some isolated is
land of jealous power. sending
the message. not speaking natural
ly and with his own voice, that he
is a human being trying to CO.
operate with other human beings
in the common service. After
this pleasant experience, | shall
feel quite normal in all our deal
ings with one another"
The Formal Message.
To the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives:
| have called the congress to-
gether in extraordinary session
because duty was laid upon the
recent elections which it ought
to perform promptly, in order
that the burden carried by the
people under existing law may be
lightened as soon as possible and
in order. also, that the business
interests of the country may not
be kept too long in suspense as
to what the fiscal changes are
to be to which they will be re-
quired to adjust themselves. 1t
is clear to the whole country that
the tariff duties must be altered.
They must be changed to meet
the radical alteration in the condi-
tons of our economic life which
the country has witnessed within

week. employing freight brake
men. The freight traffic has in
creased so extensively the past
month that the crews now en-
ployed were unable to handle it
and get the large amount of ton

time.
The setting up of crews has
taken large number of men who
were braking. which naturally
leaves them short of men in this
capacity. Men are being started
to work every day and it is ru-

men out west. The local agent

Big Damage
At Glendive
One Man Drowned and Thou
sands Of Dollars in Property
Destroyed by Flood.

The flood at Glendive las,
week caused one death and the
loss of thousands of dollars in
property. Gabriel LELAND, a
young man employed on the
Charles krug ranch. was drown.
ed while attempting to drive cat.
tie out of the way Of the on-com.
ing flood. The proprietor Of the
ranch was among the heavy los.
ers. $50 head of cattle being
swept away by the water.
Landlord Berry. of the Jordan
Hotel, was probably the heaviest
individual loser. His ranch is 10.
Gated just across the river from
Glendive on the river bottom and
it is estimated that he lost in the
neighborhood Of $4,000 in hor-
ses. cattle. hogs and personal
property. and his foreman had a
narrow escape from drowning,
being picked out of the icy water
by boat sent to his rescue. Mr..
Berry was the owner of a lot Of
thoroughbred horses. blooded
stock and swine and his loss is a
heavy one being that the animals
cannot be replaced. All the live
stock on his ranch. with the excep.
ton of a bull and stallion. were
drowned. The stallion stood in
a box stall for ~ hours in from
three to FIVE foot of icy waite,
but was taken from the stall in ap.
parently good condition.
The streets of Glendive were
flooded and in some sections peo.
pie left their homes and went into
public buildings in the higher
part of the city. The water did
not get high enough on the Glen.
dive side Of the river to cause
any great property loss. OLD
timers say the water was thu

the last generation. While the
whole face and method of our in
dustrial and commercial life were
being changed beyond recogni-
ton the tariff schedules have re.
manned what they were before the
change began, or have moved in
the direction they were given
when no large circumstance oi
our industrial development was
what it is to-day. Our task is to
square them with. the actual facts.
The sooner that is done the soon.
er we shall escape from suffering
from the facts and the sooner ou1
men of business will be free to
thrive by the law of nature (the
nature of free business) instead
of by the law of legislation and
artificial arrangement.
We have seen tariff legislation
wander far a6eld in our day
very far indeed from the field in
which our prosperity might have
had a normal growth and stim-
ulation. No one who looks the
facts squarely in the face or
knows anything that lies beneath
the surface of action can fail to
perceive the principles upon
which recent tariff legislation has
been based. We long ago passed
beyond the modest notion of
protecting" the industries of the
country and moved boldly for
ward to the idea that they were
entitled to the direct patronage
of the government. For a long
time-a time so long that the
men now active in public policy
hardly remember the conditions
that preceded tive have
sought in our tariff schedules to
give each group of manufactur-
ers and producers what they
themselves thought that they
needed in order to maintain a
practically exclusive market as
against the rest of the world. Con-
sciously or unconsciously, we
have built up set of privileges
and exemptions from competi-

any, even the crudest, forms Of
combination to organize mono
