speak despite the protests Of the pow
erS that be. The only excuse offered
was that Governor Burke was a dem
ocrat. But DR.. Creegan said he took
the bull by the horns and asked Gov
ernor Burke to speak regardless of
consequences"
A. T. Cole gave an excellent talk
on Good Citizenship, in which he spoke
Of the duty every man in North Da-
kota realized was his when he voted
for MI. Burke as governor three times.
He felt the combination Of Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo of New York
n Treasurer Burke of North Dakota
was a happy one and President Will
son was to be congratulated in making
such an able choice.
Melvin D, Hiidreth, son of Col. NJ.
A. Htldreth. spoke in place of his
father, who could not be present. His
subject was, Burke at Baltimore, and
the speaker told a number of inter-
esting incidents which took place at
the last democratic national conven-
ton in the monumental city when the
fickertail governors name was placed
in nomination for the vice presidency
of the United States.
HeIistrom Talked.
Warden Frank o. Hellstrom of the
state ~penitentiary, and democratic
nomtnee for governor in the last cleo
ton, was the next speaker. The warden
said he could not help but be impress
ed with Judge Pollock's word when
that gentleman had said, John Burke
would not have been elected governor
if it had not been for the republicans"
THAT is very true said the warden.
John Burke would not have been
elected governor if it had not been for
the republicans, and l would have been
elected governor If it had not been for
the republicans"
Mr.. Hellstrom congratulated the
president on his selection of John
Burke and wished him godspeed in his
new duties.
Burke the Man.
Walter L. Stockwell delivered one of
the best addresses of the evening on
Burke, the Man. His testimonial Of
the treasurer's home life was most
beautiful. He called such men as John
Burke an asset to the state Of North
Dakota, for a "commonwealth'S great
est treasures are it's men, he declar-
ed The distinction hat has come to
John Burke has brought distinction to
every citizen IN this state, concluded
Mr.. Stockwell.
Jones of Rock was The next speaker.
He brought an excellent testimonial
from the citizens of LaMoure county.
Judge c. F. Amidon followed with a
few well chosen remarks regarding
Governor Burke's three administra-
tfons in this state and what he hoped
he would do in Washington. r. NJ.
Pollock called attention to the fact
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1913-03-19

that Governor Burke was so we'll liked
that he might have been governor of
North Dakota indefinitely had he so
chosen or If q certain prominent news
paper in the state had not changed
proprietors, which brought a round Of
applause.
Sweet Was witty.
Mayor Sweet was exceptionally wit
ty. He provoked much laughter when
he said he had always voted for
Governor Burke and when that gentle
mar decided no longer to run for re-
election, ain order to continue the
publication of political conditions in
North Dakota, I found there was no
other alternative but to run my
self"
The mayor said, while defeated. he
was still able to smile cheerfully and
was glad TO G that so able a man
as the former governor had been SO
highly honored by the president OF
the United States as to be called to
preside over the treasury.
"You can see," said the mayor, chow
gracefully and in what a cOncilatory
spirit the vanquished can eat out OF
the hands OF the victor"
CiaPp and Mcdowell.
w. J. Clapp and Sen. Wesley c.
Mcdowell of Marion were the two last
speakers of the evening. MI. Clapp,
although a lifelong republican. had
voted three times for Governor Burke
and once for President Wilson, SO he
did not know what his future political
affiliations would be. He felt Cover
nor Burke might have been an &C
cident in the governors chair the first
time, but not the last two times.
Senator McDowelrs effort was one
Of the most touching of the evening.
He said he had always wanted to call
Governor Burke Dad" In his Iegisla-
tive experience, he said it was the
guiding hand of the governor which
he had very much felt. He used to
think all the great men like Washing
ton, Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln
were all gone, but he realized that he
had lived in the time when there were
some he felt were equally as great.
A president boom for Governor Burke
was even intimated by the senator,

TEAMS ARE TIED
in the Automobile Basketball
League at az"
Standing of Teams.

Only n game was played in the
Automobile Basketball league at the
Young Mems Christian association last
night. This contest was between the
Cases and the Fords and was one
of the hottest games that has been
staged in this league. At no time was
switching back and forth until the
spectators were fairly wild with ex-
element. At the end of the first half
the score stood II to 10 in favor Of
the Fords, that aggregation which had
never lost a game. Instead of holding
the Cases back. this seemed only to
spur them on and they shut their OPP
ponents out in the second half, made
three field goals and won by the score
Of 16 to IA.
The ~Studebakers and the Overlands
were scheduled to play in the second
game, but owing to an over dose Of
hard luck Captain Bayard was unable
to get his warriors out and the game
was forfeited to the Overlands.

which was received enthusiastically.
Governor Burke.

Governor Burke did not speak ut
length, when Mr.. Lowell introduced
him at the conclusion of the program
me. He spoke feelingly and showed
he had been greatly affected by the
sentiments of his old friends and
neighboFs in the state.
He granted he had made mistakes
in the governors chair, which at
times had been criticised, but he was
only human and he knew that in Civ
ing his best conscientious effort to his
duties every day the public would
make allowances for what errors he
might have made.
In the heat of some of his cam
paigns he declared he may have said
things against his adversaries which
on sober second thought he might nor
have uttered and he regretted that
those episodes in life were necessary,
in the careers OF public men. But he
said he went away from North Da-
kota to assume his new duties in
Washington with the kindliest feeling
toward everyone and everybody in the
state. He paid a. number of compli-
ments 10 some of the speakers of the
evening.
Presented a Diamond.
On behalf of the citizens of Fargo,
Mr.. Lowell presented the treasurer a
beautiful diamond stickpiu, valued at
$3.50, as a parting token Of their re-
spect and admiration.
One of the great hits of the even
ing was the vocal number of Frank
V. Steele which was in the nature of a
specially arranged sons about Governor
Burke set to the air of an Irish ballad.
Mr.. Steele scored a great hit and was
compelled to respond to an encore.
The committee in charge of the ban
quet deserves much credit for the
splendid banquet which was served
and the fine programme arranged.
Manager Leimbacher of the Gardner
received many compliments on the
delectable menu served.
The committee comprised States
Chairman Macarthur, Col. George w.
Wilkinson, Chief Game Warden Me-
Lean. c. H. Anheier and Rep. r. b.
Blakemore.

and wit that spoke well for the high
grade of public men in the state of
North Dakota.
i Judge Charles A. Pollock of the dis
trict court was the first speaker of
the evening. The jurist was never
heard to better advantage. Eulogiz-
ing the new treasurer he congratulated
the new president of the United States
on his endea.yer to secure for the coun
try the service Of such reliable men
as John Burke.
Judge Pollock also called attention
to the fact that Governor Burke, Mayor
Lowell and himself were all alumni
of the same institution, Iowa college,
and as graduates OF the same school,
he could say their alma mater was
proud of producing a man who should
rise to control the currency of the
United States. The speaker assured
the distinguished guest he would new
er have been governor if it had not
been for the republicans OF North Da-
kota and Mr.. Wilson would never have
been president If lit had not been for
the republicans OF the nation, so that
it was natural for the republicans to
take a pride in his career.
Creegan's Testimonial.

of his personal friend, Governor Burke,
In terms most glowing. He r~efreghen-

FOOD VALUE OF BuTTERMILK
According to Bulletin Of Department.
Of Agriculture It 10 Extremely
High. .

An ordinary glass OF buttermilk con-
tains about as much nutriment as two
ounces of bread, good sized potato
or a half pint Of oysters, says a re.
cent bulletin of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. 1t thus con-
tains about the same food constituents
as skim milk, but it has an added n.y.
gienic value because the protein is
more easily digested than the protein
In skim milk, and therefore is often
prescribed by physicians for children
and iavalids, especially those suffering
from intestinal trouble.
Protein, being tho most costly or
food ingredients, is the one most like
ly to be lacking in inexpensive meals,
end this is the nutrient which both
skim milk and buttermilk supply in a
cheap and useful form, and when TAX
en- with bread or used in cooking they
form a very nutritious addition to
the diet. Two and one-half quarts OF
skim milk or buttermilk contains
about the same amount of protein as
one pound of round steak, and costs
about one-quarter as much. Two
quarts of milk has greater nutrient
value than one quart of oysters. The
nutriment in the form OF oysters
would cost 80 to SO cents, while the
skin milk Or buttermiik would have
q value on the farm of from two to
four cents.
