DO you SUFFER

When your kidneys are weak and

The Shoe Situation.

Dull and featureless conditions prevail in
foo twear, current orders being spasmodic and
confined mainly to small lots. AS result of
the sharp advance in leather, manufacturers
are discussing the question of higher prices for
shoes, it being expected that increases will be
named on spring samples. Retailers apparently
are carrying only moderate supplies. but as
vet these interests are not providing freely
for their fall and winter requirements. Dis
tinct frmness is manifest in all branches of
the leather market, with a further rise in
values noted in certain lines.-Dun's Review,

4 MISTAKEN idea

There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility. and who know that the pure,
unaduiterated nourishment in scott
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear 1t may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This is mistaken idea, because Scott's
Emulsion first strengthens the body before
making flesh. Its blood-formlng propel-
ties aid nature to throw OF sickness oy
building health from its very source ana
fesh is formed only by its continued use.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes tor SCOTI'S.

Speaking of man who refused to eat
because Col. Roosevelt was under the
same roof, the Boston Journal says:
Col. Roosevelt is not built that way,
and if he should discover while dining or
lunching in any hostelry that among those
present were William Barnes, the we'll
known boss of New York; Boise Pen
rose, the we'll known boss of fennsylva-
MIA, and other equally well-known bosses
ne would laugh cheerfully, exclaim Bully!

Yet we recall one instance in which
Roosevelt refused to attend public
banquet because one Of the guests had
opposed his nomination at Chicago in
1912.

COL Roosevelt's visit in Boston was a
frost and the chilling reception he met
there set his teeth on edge. On the train
to Maine he is said to have denounced the
management there with the petulance of
a spoiled child. But what could he ex-
pect? The Progressive party of Massa-
chusetts is confessedly bankrupt. Even
a woman stenographer employed at head
quarters is trying to find some one to sue
for her pay. Bird and his barrel have
pulled out. In three congressional dis
tricts in which Progressive nominations
were made two years ago there are no
candidates this year. The only daily
newspaper in Boston which championed
the Progressive cause in the last cam
paign hauled down the Roosevelt colors
some time ago. The Progressive party
of Massachusetts is dead, and Roosevelt
should not have expected very warm
reception from a corpse.

Col. Roosevelt in his public addresses
has singled out Senator Burleigh and Con-
gresham John A. Peters for denuncia-
ton as standpatters and obstructionists
inspired, no doubt, by the Maine sore
heads posing as Progressives who are
seeking to revenge themselves on the
party which had honored them in the past
beyond their deserts for not continuing
them in Office. AS to Senator Burleigh,
no man who has ever held office in Maine
has cleaner record or has given the
State more loyal service. AS State
treasurer, as Governor, as Representa-
tive and Senator, he has worked unre
mittingly for the interests of the State
and for the interests of his constituents,
individually and collectively. No one has
asked his aid in vain. These things may
! be said of him the more freely at this
time as he is not now and probably will
never again be a candidate for public
office; and this, with the knowledge that
he is just recovering from a very critical
illness, and has had Affections which en-
title him to heartfelt sympathy, makes
the mendacious and malicious attacks on
him the more despicable. Congressman
Peters is young man who has demon
strated his ability in the legal profession,
as member of the Maine Legislature
and as speaker of the House during the
stirring session of 1913. In the National
House, in which his party has only a
small minority, he has won unusual
prominence for new member, and his
record on all public questions shows that
he is progressive and stands for the best
interests of the State. The voters of
the Sd congressional district, recognizing
these qualifications, elected Mr.. Peters
to Congress at the special election last
September, with Democratic and Progress
sive candidates in the field against him,
and he was unopposed in the primary for
nomination. for full term. That he will
again be chosen to represent this district
in the National House is, we believe
assured.

Maine sent a Roosevelt delegation to
the National Republican convention in
1912 and though the subsequent proceed
1ngs of their candidate alienated many of
his followers and made the judicious
grieve he retains worshippers enough
to assure him a welcome in this State
and his reception in Portland and Lewis
ton last week was all that he could have
expected or desired. His address, how
ever, must have been disappointing to
Progressives and Democrats alike. 1t
was not a stirring appeal for votes for
Gardner. Emerson, Pattangall, ct al,
but was mainly devoted to expounding
principles that the Republicans of this
State have been ready to support and
endorse at any time within the past two
years. The Colonel's visit to Maine
made only ripple on the political sea.

The Lewiston Sun is generally classed
as Democratic newspaper, but it cannot
swallow everything of that brand. Of
the condition of the Lewiston cotton
mills under the present tariff it says to
Congressman McGillicuddy:
You see what bad work your blessed
Underwood tariff is doing right here in
your own home city; what-wbat are you
going to do about it, Mr.. McGillicuddy?
1t also has a word to say to Hal P.
Gardner. the windy Progressive candi-
date for governor, as follows:
The Sun challenges you to take all
reasonable space in its columns to show
from the records of the Supreme Judicial
Court of Maine that Maine ought to have
recall of judicial decisions. You can't
do it.
That plank, recall of judicial decisions,
that plank is the one distinctive feature
of your State issue, and you can't make
good on it.
If you ignore it. you deserve to be
beaten-deserve to be distanced.

tional Importance, because Congressman
are to be elected, and the sending Of
Democrats to Washington would be an
endorsement of the administration poll
cies which have proved ruinous to New
England industries and particularly to
those of Maine. Of State Importance,
because it is for the interest of all that
the business-llke administration of Gov.
Haines should be continued. Locally it
IS squarely up to voters to decide whether
we shall have notification or the con-
tinuance of law and order under Sheriff
Cushman, who has lived up to his oath of
Office and in this and other relations has
the confidence and respect of all who
know him. Without disparagement of
the opposing candidates it may be said
that the Republican county ticket is an
exceptionally strong one, composed OF
men of influence and standing and in
every way qualified for the positions for
which they were nominated. Vote the
Republican ticket.

LAND EXCURSION
. EARLY IN June
MAJOR MURPHY, 500 IMMIGRA-
TON AGENT, HAS SET DATES
FOR FOUR LAND SEEKER EN-
CURSIONS TO STATE.

Major J. S. Murphy, immigration
agent of the 500, arrived in Minot
Sunday morning to spend the day with
his family. The Major, in an inter-
view with the Independent man, stat
ed that the immigration movement is
looking very bright, and stated that
North Dakota is being advertised as
this state has never been advertised
before. The Majors headquarters
have been established at Minneapolis.
II am spending on the average of
$500 week advertising North Dakota
in such papers as the Chicago Sun
day American, DEBORAH Poster, and
other journals of wide circulation. At
my office l am receiving 200 letters
daily from those interested in the
movement. am appointing agents in
the eastern states and have field men
out all of the time," Mr.. Murphy said.
"The excursion rates are effective
May II, and after that date l expect
quite large movement, tho the larg-
est number of land seekers may not
be expected until after harvest.
"The first excursion will be made to
Kensal, Darlington, Harvey and other
points in that section of the state; the
second up towards Minot; the third
along the Wheat Line and the fourth
will include Minot. The Minot excur-
sion will be on about the first week
in June, according to present plans,
and we will attempt to make this a
good one"

COMMISSIONERS WILLING TO
SERVE WITHOUT PAY,

An interesting meeting was held at
the Association rooms this evening,
the committee from the Association
meeting with the City Commissioners.
The question of the reduction of taxes
thru cut in the wages of the city
employees was considered. The COM
missioners said that if it be the wish
of the citizens of Minot that they
serve without pay, they would do so,
although it was generally conceded
that Pres. Rudd should have at least
$500 a year. According to the plan
worked out, Minot will likely save
about $25O0 in salaries. The City
Auditors stenographer will be dis
missed and some other expenses cut
out. As the total amount of taxes
paid in Minot for 1918 aggregated
1927 900, which included $4,000 in
special assessments, this will not
make much Of a reduction in each
ones taxes.
