Dtogenes in his search for an hon
est man would have stopped short at
the door of Representative Wither-
spoon of Mississippi. 1t has been dis
covered that Mr.. Witherspoon is the
only man now on the rolls Of congress
who has ever refused to take his sal
airy for days in which he was engaged
IN business not connected with the
congress OF the United States.
The discovery was an accidental
one and is In no way traceable to
Mr. Witherspoon.
The fact is that Mr.. Witherspoon
was absent from Washington four
days on private business and when 1t
came time to draw his salary check
for the month he had the sergeant

duct the exact amount 10 cover the
four days. The sum turned back
amounted to 1920.

GEORGE M. YOUNG's SHORT TERM

Public men have often boasted
their long terms of office In some high

Union for the shortest space OF time
than any other man ever held that
exalted position-one hour, by the

The great event happened in the
summer of 1872" said Mr.. Young. Our
regular governor, John Burke, was
away building fences and stringing
wires in a convention hall down in
st. Louis. The next in succession was
Lieut.. Gov. R. s. Lewis, a banker of
Fargo.
'one slithering hot day touring
car full of friends ehugged up to the
bank. They reminded Lewis that it
was hot, that North Dakota was pro-

they stuffed him in among them,

he did not despair.
The children were placed temper
arily in home conducted by charit-
able people, while Joseph went to
work as a messenger boy. At eight
cen he was telegraph operator and
within a year he had gotten home,
placed his brothers and sisters in it
and begun to assume the responsible
ties of father.
Cary was once sheriff OF his coun-
ty, and while going about the farms,
soliciting the support Of the men,
was caught one afternoon in a vio-
lent storm. SO he drove hastily up
to the home OF an acquaintance, ask
ing shelter for the night.

the consumption was above the corre-
