POLLOCK HAS PRAISE
FOR JOHN MARSHALL

Grand Forks, N. D., April ~4.-~Judge
Charles A. Pollock yesterday delivered
a splendid lecture at the law school on
John Marshall. The speaker declared
that this great man was the judicial
pilot during the formative period OF
the American government. He was
y vean + he easa" his service tAi sn e lis ks q u y
try in the revolutionary war. He was
not only. 2 soldier, but was as well a
lawyer, Legislator, Diplomat and chief
justice. He began the practice Of law
at Richmond, ~. in 1850, and at ones
obtained a large practice. Justice
Marshall was recognized as a great
lawyer from the time he began prac-
tice.
He was on the supreme bench for a
period of thirty -four years, During
that time l,2I5 s were decided.
Fifteen Of these cases were prepared
by the court and no Judge was nam
ed. and of the remaining 1,1o!6 eases.
Marshall wrote the opinions for 51a.
During the same neriod ne wrote also
OF these cases involved constitutional
questions Of the greatest Importance
and Justice Marshall wrote t~hiFty-six
of these opinions himself.
In speaking Of the great justice,
alonG W1i llOL make men great, IL Eney
do not have the spirit 10 seize upon
and help to develop passing events.
Justice Marshall vas a member Of
congress and served In the Virginia
legislature for six years, while he was
also a member OF the presidents cab

century.
In private life Justice Marshall was
also n big and a, SpIendid man Ha

Commercial Travellers has also taken
note of the decision of the railway
companies to cease the sale of excess
baggage coupon books and has asked
the commission to give a hearing on
this matter, which will probably be
done in the near future.

company has violated one of the car

would not be surprising it it was re-
CURED to reinstate the agent and then
make application to close, the COM
mission being very jealous Of it's right
to decide such matters, and objects to
any action of that kind without first
giving the people of the place cen-

InstaHment
Policies

Life insurance policies by which
the beneficiary is paid a certain
amount each month for 10 or 20
years are becoming the most popu-
lar kind of insurance. Your wife
is not bothered about loaping the
money and there is no possible
chance OF her losing it. We only
charge for the cash value of this
policy, discounting it. at the rate
of 3h per cent interest. In addition
to this, we agree to share any
interest earned over this amount,
and we are earning over. 7 per
cent. This will, no doubt, give her
as good a rate as she could get
most anywhere and she will re-
ceive her check each month with
out eve asking for it. AS an ex-
ample, one beneficiary who would
this year receive 81, 000.0 90, will ac-
tually receive $~1,162.45.> Another
who has $4,000 will receive
$307.15. Three and oale+halRt per
cent interest is included in q the
first payment, so the additional
payment is just that much more
than 3k per cent interest. Give
us your age. and let us tell you
what this policy will cost YOU.

NINOT WILL HAVE.
BEAUTIFUL WATERWAY

Minot, N. D., April A scheme,
whereby Minot ma be afforded one
Of the most beautiful systems of park
waterways in the entire northwest, is
being advocated by a large share of
the citizens of this city. 1t is pro-
posed that two railroad dams in the
Mouse river will be torn away, and a
substantial concrete dam placed be-
low the city, backing up the water
for about seven miles of tortuous
channel and affording the finest of
advantages for boating and bathing.
The three large natural parks en-
ioyed by this city would benefit by
the damming of the stream in this
manner and multiply their beauty, ten
fold, AS this is directly in line with
other plans advocated and endorsed
by the new association of commerce,
it is probable that some action will be
taken in the matter officially. in the
near future.

coast of Sinaloa, fell into the hands
of Carranza's forces today, according
to information received in Nogales,
Sonora, from rebel sources.
The capture OF MaZatian gives the
rebels their first seaport. For months
the Carranzistas have battled for
Guaymas, Sonora's most important
seaport, but without avail. They had
been investing Mazatlan for some
time. The federals had sent the
larger portion of their troops to the
defense OF Guaymas. This weakened
the garrison SO the rebel victory was
comparatively easy. NIazatlan is the
home of many rich Spaniards and
