SHANK QUITS.

The shallow-pated Shank is no
longer mayor of Indianapolis He
was a political accident hoist into
power as joke and his career In the
municipal executive chair has been a
joke ever since. All that can be said
for Lew Shank is that he is a good
fellow, but 1t takes more than good
fellowship to be mayor of a city like
Indianapolis.
Shank didn't even try to weather
the storm that is breaking over the
capital. He has quit like a yellow
dog and is running away with his tai
between his legs. Shank is to go on
the vaudeville stage but we predict
that he won't last long there. He is
just common ordinary clown.

BoSsISM IN INDIANA.

Another feeble effort is being made
in Indiana. The threat is made an
nually, but the effort is generally
half-hearted. "Taggart has such a
hold on the democrats of the state
that he is the personification of Hoos-
Ter democracy. It would seem that
those who believe the machine should
be smashed have been deceived by
Senator Kern, who was supposed to
stand for Wilson democracy and who
was expected to lead the fight against

MAY INCREASE
APPROPRIATION
LARGER BUILDING NEEDED FOR
PoSToFFIcE AT MAN DAN.
IT Is SAID.

Mandan, N. D., Feb. 13.-That the
appropriation Of $55, 900 for the erec-
tlon of a new postofice building in
this city, may be increased is highly
probable, according to advices which
come from Washington. Owing to
the parcel post business and the adj
ditional room needed for handling this
class of mail matter it will be neces-
sary to revise plans Of many public
buildings in which. postofices are To-
Gated and negotiations to this end al
ready have been instituted by Post
master General Hitchcock.
On Monday the postmaster gen
eral invited the supervising archi-
tect of the treasury and his assist
ants to cooperate in the matter with
the building committee of the post
office department and the special par
eel post committee.
At present IVA public buildings are
under contract and 233, including the
Mandan postoff1ce, have been appro-
priated for by congress. They ap-
proximate in cost $50, 900, 1000.
The plans for these buildings have
been prepared without regard for the
needs of the parcel post system, and
it now is essential that changes be
made in their construction in order
that the increased volume of mail
may be handled advantageously.
In 759 postoffices located in govern
ment buildings it will be necessary to
make alterations to meet the require
ments of the parcel post.

Three TAKEN TO
The P"ENI1ENTIARY
AMONG TRIO WAS CoLoREp MAN
TO SERVE THIRTY YEARS
FOR MURDER.

Bismarck, N. d. Feb. 13.-Sheriff
John Mclean of Devils Lake, accom-
panied by Harry Nicholson, of Crary
arrived in Bismarck this afternoon
with three prisoners from Ramsey
county, whom they consigned to the
penitentiary for ~safekeeping.
The principal of the trio is George
Taggert, sentenced to thirty years for
murder. 1t seems that he and another
colored man got into an alteration
because of the divided affections of a.
yellow GAL" w~hereupon Taggert shot
and killed his rival.
The second prisoner is James Ham
monds, another colored man, who was
sent UP from five to ten years for
highway robbery.
The third is Volney M. Baker, who
received one year for forgery.
There are probably not two more
popular boys in the central part of the
state than Sheriff Mclean and Harry
Nicholson, and they say that inasmuch
as they are on the ground they think
they will remain a day or two Just to
renew aCquaintances.

TUBERCULOSIS
AMONG Indians
FATHER eEEDE HOPES TO HAVE
LEGISLATURE URGE GOVERN
MENT HELP.

Bismarck, N. d, Feb. 13.-Dr. A.
Meg. Beede arrived in the city from
Cannon Ball, and expects to remain in
the city until Friday. While here
Father Beede hopes to get the legis-
lature to pass a resolution urging the
government to properly care for the
numerous consumptive Indians on the
Standing Rock Indian reservation.
Father Beede says this should be
done from the humanitarian standpoint
alone, but there is still another import
ant side, viz: the danger that tuber-
culosis will spread from the Indians
among white people. He mentions that
the government Is now paying great
attention to the determination of tub
erculosis amng domestic animals, and
he thinks that the same reason which
this work necessary, should
lead to see the Immediate neces-
sity among Indians.
While all Indians are subject to this
disease, it seems to make greater raw
ages among the Sioux than the other
Indians. He attributes this to the fact
that the Sioux formerly lived in the
open more than other Indians did. 1t
is only about forty years since the
first Sioux Chief, Two Bear, adopted
the white mans custom Of living In a
house.
Father Beede states that physicians
generally are In error in s%upposing that
the Indians got this disease from white
people. The Indians do not look at the
matter in this way. In the old times,
pulmonary consumption was known
among the Indians, and the medicine
men were carefully instructed by their
teachers in the method of treating pull
monary consumption. Under modern
conditions of living, pulmonary col
sumption, formerly %infrequent among
them, has become alarmingly prevail
ent. Indians even claim that Indian
consumption is not the same kind of
tuberculosis as the white people have.

HEALTH STATISTICS.
At The CAPITAL.
MEDICAL SOCIETY ADOPTS RES
.oLuTIoNS OF PROTEST AT
BISMARCK MEETING.

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 1S-Con-
siderable protest was manifest at the
regular monthly meeting Of the Sixth
District Medical society because he
state bureau of vital statistics is not
maintained at the state capitol, as
provided by law.
After some discussion the follow
ing resolution was adopted:
whereas, accurate vital statistics
are essential to the effective and sue
cessful administration of a public
health department and wherever such
statistics are wanting, sanitary ad-
m~inistration is defective; and as It
has been amply demonstrated that ap-
piled vital statistics tend to improve
the public health, encourage sanitary
reforms and diminish the death rates;
therefore.
BE 1t resolved, that we, as mem
bers Of the Sixth District Medical so
ciety, respectfully request Governor
Hanna, that he require the state
board of health to establish the Bu-
reau of Vital Statistics at the state
capitol. as provided for in chapter
go, session laws of 1907. and that the
secretary Of the state board OF health,
as state registrar, be required to
maintain his office there and file and
preserve all statistics received from
local registrars. that there may be q
permanent record of all births and
deaths in the state.
The meeting was held at the COM
merCial club rooms, and President
Kranz of Mandan presided.
DR.. ThaIen of Wilton read a paper
on Eclampsia, and a very interest
ing paper on Treatment of Pulmon-
airy Diseases had been prepared by
DR.. Cain of Underwood. DIR. Ramstad
of Bismarck read a paper on Treat
ment of the Diseases Of CHAMBER vi

The meeting was well attended.

CARBERRY TOLD
CONSISTENT STORY

Medora, N. D., Feb. 13.-Herbert
Glass, who is supposed to have been
implicated in the murder of Thomas
Corcoran, at Marmarth, in September,
1911, and for which murder Thomas
Carberry is now serving a thirty years
sentence, had his preliminary hearing
here today. He was held to the district
court. Glass did not take the stand In
his own behalf. Thomas Carberry was
brought from the penitentiary as a
witness against Glass. Carberry o
the same story as he did when on the
stand, in his own behalf, here one
year ago. The evidence given then
and now shows a remarkable
ness. If what Carberry tells is true
1t certainly points to his innocence.

DIVISION TALK IN
M'KENzIE COUNTY

Wtlliston, N. D., Feb. 13.-There is
considerable county division talk
in the adjoining county of Nc
Kenzie just at the present time. 1t
appears that this is due to the con-
s%truction of the Great Northern rail-
road through that county, south of
here, the building of which road Gre
ates a rather peculiar situation. Scha-
fer, the present county seat, will not
be exactly IN the line of the new road,
