MAKE final PLEA TO
KEEP OLD SHIP HERE
District Heads Ask Secretary Dan.
ie]s to Retain Constel-
lation Here.

Secretary Daniels, who has just re-
turned from a visit to his home in
Raleigh. expects to visit the historic
frigate Constellation at the Washing
ton navy yard tomorrow He Will be
accompanied by his sons, who, like
their father. have a strong patriotic
interest in the old man-of- war
Rear admiral Victor Blue. chief of
the naval bureau of navigation, also
will make Il visit to the old ship in a
day or TWO He made his first cruise
on it over thirty years ago, when he
was midshipman at the Naval Acad-
envy and had his first and only expert
ence of seasickness.
Final effort to have the Navy Depart
ment retain the old frigate ConStella-
ton permanently in this port was made
today through the District Commits
SionerS.
Complying with requests from large
number OF citizens and civic OrganiZa-
tions. the local government heads adj
dressed Il letter TO Secretary of the
Navy Daniels. stating that they would
be gratified if il should be found con-
sistent and agreeable to retain the
famous old war vessel here.

No Change in Plans for Ship.

AS Secretary Daniels already has an
nounced that there will be no change in
the plans to convert the ship into d re-
ceiving station. little hope is held that
the presence of the Constellation may be
added TO the permanent attractions of
the National Capital
Were Congress in session ii is con-
sidered probable that efforts would be
made to obtain from this source au-
thority for keeping the historic frigate
at the local navy yard. Washington,
il is urged, should have at least one
of the ships that went to make up the
first American navy. and il is believed
that Congress would have been dis
posed to take this view of the matter

the NEW POPE

Benedict XIV, the new pope, is
a young man for the exalted hon
ors of the papacy, since he will
not be 60 years old until the 2ist
of November. He was born at Pc
gil. in the diocese of Genoa. in
1854 and was ordained to the
priesthood in 1878. Only last May
was he elected to wear the red
hat as a cardinal. and yet his ele-
vatim to the papacy cannot be
considered a surprise.
The family name of the new
pope is hailed by devout Roman
Catholic throughout the world as
good augury for successful
and happy reign for the new pom
tiff. Having taken the name of
Benedict XIV. he assumes the title
of one of the most learned and
greatest of all popes, Benedict
XIV, who was born in 1915 and
was elevated to the throne in
174O. The new pope enjoys a great
reputation for learning and
churchliness and his high Off
cial career is full of great prom
Use.

REGENERATION OF AUNT MARY

All OF Lne dQJectlVeS IN NeD-
ster's unabridged dictionary, des-
cribing a vivacious farce comedy
are applicable to "The Rejuve-
nation of Aunt Mary" written by
Anne Warner which will be pre-
sented at the Wahpeton Opera
House. The Reiuvenation of Aunt
Mary is as perfect a piece of
comedy minus horse play as has,
ever been presented in a decade. 1t,
is not a one person comedy, far
from that. but it fairly breathes
the brand of humor. What could
be more delightful and at the
same time more beautiful than
the youthfulness of "Aunt Mary"
and her love for her nephew. who
is young man. the kind that is
full of Old Nick, yet. who we must
forgive because of his love for
his aunt. This young man must
have found her all ideal chum to
have permitted her to go along on
their risque outing.
''Aunt Mary" is a delightful old
lady who decides that she will
not let herself grow old-whose
one ambition is to remain Young
F'ltll Ine last 1all or the curtain
of life.
''The Reiuvenation of Aunt
Mary" has more laughs than a
dozen alleged comedies. The hu-
NOR and repartee is so rapid that
the auditor has only half recov-
cred from one laugh spasm before
another is in order. The company
is exceptionally strong and the
scenes and presentation of the
comedy are admirable and throw
great credit upon those respon-
sible. Will he at the Wahpeton

REV. aErcnELL. EDITOR
Resigns as Pastor at Hankinson
For q Tripod at Valley

Rev. E. p. Getchell, pastor of
the CONGREGATIONAL church at
HankinsOn. has resigned that po-
sition and associated himself with
three other parties and the firm
has leased the Valley City Patriot
with privilege of purchasing the
same at a later date. The firm al
SO secures the subscription list of
the North Dakota Standard. a tenn
perance paper heretofore publish
ed at Lisbon. and they will issue
it hereafter from Valley City.
The Hankinson News says that
the Patriot will continue to be
published as a local newspaper at
Valley City and the North Dakota
Standard will be enlarged and de-
voted to temperance work with the
entire state as a field. The Pa
triOt is one Of Barnes county's

published by Mr.. Vallandigham
for thirty years. The North Dako-
ia Standard is just entering on it's
second year of publication but has
a large circulation over the state.
Rev. Getchell will tender his
resignation as local pastor this
week and will remove to Valley
City as soon as his successor here
has been named. He expects to

cd to %
PREPARING FOR BIG BATTLE
Conflicting News from the Aus.
trtan-0erman Field Of 0p.
orationS In East

The Battle OF the Marne," tho
greatest battle of modern ti,ues
is ended. and it ended with ad-
vantage to the allies. The Ger
mans have fallen back over much
OF the distance they had gained,
but only to make a more deter
mined stand. and another great
battle is pending: and indeed, may
be already on. It's result is ex-
pccted to be more decisive than
anv other battle yet fought.
The news from the eastern nart
of Germany and Austria, where
the Russians have been claiming
great victories and the capture Of
many thousands of the enemy
brings denial of their story by
the Germans. and the counter
claim by them that the Russians
have been worsted and that many
thousands of them have been cap
tured. The news from there is so
contradictory, that it is impossi-
BILE to decide which army is get
ting the worst of it. but there is
little doubt that by virtue of their
overwhelming numbers the Rus
slams have. on the whole, made
some pretty decided gains.
The Beers i'm southern Africa,
who are now British subjects. are
reported to have won an import
ant victory over the Germans in
that faraway country, and the
Japs report their first encounter
and victory over the Germans in
China. Turkey. Italy, Bulgaria and
Greece still remain neutral.
Meanwhile the war goes ''mer-
rilv" (sadly) on. and the end is
not yet in sight. On the whole.
the past week seems to have been
a much better one for the allies
and n"ssians than it has for the
Germans. who have had to fall
back many miles all along the
line. But it may be only strong
er position and the next news may
be more favorable for the Ger
mans again.

ANEW FARoo VIEW

Inc editor OF the Fargo COur-
ier-News last week gave vent to
the following sensible editorial:
Truly no one can tell what a
war may do. Among its bypro-
ducts is the complete change it
has wrought in American politics.
The most promising Republican
issues have been shot away at
Belgrade. Lemberg and Liege. Six
weeks ago the Republican nation
al leaders were ioyously, enthus-
aggressive: now they are
reticently defensive.
Up to the Austrian ultimatum
the chief arraigment Of the Will
son administration was its for
eign policy. The ablest of its op-
ponents. Col. Roosevelt. foreshad-
owed this as his main line of at
tack as soon as he returned from
South America. and the lesser
men in both the opposition parties
made similar preparations. He
displayed his unerring political
instinct when he was the first to
abandon this line of attack. He an
nOunced the moment the war
broke out that it would be unDa-
triotic to attack the Administra-
tiOn's FOREIGN policy in time of
stress. and none of the other an
administration spokesmen has
had word to say about it since.
On the tariff issue he would be
a brave fellow who would under
take to make political capital of
it at the present time. while the
trust bills are so generally accept
ed that they present no possibility
of a successful issue at present.
I there were to be an election this
November Mr.. Wilson would be
elected by majority which would
dwarf his former vote.
1t is hard luck for the Repub-
licans. With all their major issues
demolished inside of month.
they are reduced to making a cam
.paign of general opposition with
out having a single important
thing to view with alarm. 1t is al
ready evident that they will con-
fine themselves chiefly to local
issues i'm each State. There is
else for them to do. Like
the Allies. they have been driven
inside their second line of de-
fense. The Democrats. no longer
on the defensive. are able to point
to their record. ask what the Re-
Dublicans have to offer in place of
it. and receive no reply. The war
has not only changed the prospect
of Democratic defeat to Democra-
tic victory: it has obliterated the
issues on which Democratic de-
feat was assumed.

the MEXICAN SITUATION

The great European war has
drawn attention away from Mex
leo to such an extent that the sit
uation there has almost been
lost sight Of. However. every
thing in Mexico is quiet and sat-
isfactory. General Carranza. the
Constitutionalist leader. is provi-
sional president and Gen. Villa
and the entire country is acduies-
cling.
A president is soon to be elected
who is not military man, and it
seems that our southern neigh
hor is to enjoy real liberty for the
first time i'm many years. "Watch-
full waiting" accomplished much
more for Mexico than interven-
tion could possibly have done. and
saved lot of hloOdshed and many
millions of money besides.

SHOOTING ARRAY
ON ADAMS FARM
One Of the Employee Puts q Dul.
let Through the 0hest Of An.
other One
BOTH WERE INTOXICATED
One OF Them Placed In the County
jail and tho Other 10 In. q. -.
Hospital

There was a serious shooting
affray out on the Adams farm
last Friday evening in which one
Of :. the employees was shot
through the back and chest by an
other employee, who is now in the
county Jail. and boarding at the
Hotel de Budack. The man who
was shot is in st. Francis hospi-
tai. Just what the outcome of the
affair will be. may depend large
ly upon the result of the wound.
The shooting occurred at what
is known as the bunk house, on
the farm and appears to have been
the result of drunken row. both
parties to the affair having been
intoxicated at the time. Fred Ea-
ton, who did the shooting. claims
to have Just come down from the
elevator when some one struck
him blackin" his eye. This so en-
ragged him that he procured re-
volver and loading it with the
one cartridge he had he
shot his friend Paul Fireman
through the body. the ball enter
ing one side, and little in the
rear, and came out of the other
side. a little in front.
Sheriff Budack was notified by
teleDhone and went out to the
farm and placed the shootist un-
der arrest and brought him to the
county Jail. while the man who
was shot was taken to st. Francis
hospital. where he was able to
walk into the building, and it is
generally believed that he may re-
cover.
The two parties to the affair
had been employees on the Adams
farm for a considerable time and
had been the best of friends. Ea-
ton says whiskey did it. and he
claims to have no recollection OF
the affray whatever. This. how
ever, may only be feigned. The
preliminary hearing will take
place as soon as possible after
the physicians are able to deter
mine to greater certainty wheth-
er or not the injured man will re-
cover.
