Kentucky Horses

Kentucky horses may be used
to equip the cavalry for service
in Mexico. The house has adop-
ted the joint conference report
on the military bill making an
appropriation of 100000 to buy
cavalry horses, to be Immediately
available.
Representative Helm says that
he will call on Secretary of War
Garrison and definitely ask that
all or a large part of this money
be used to buy Kentucky horses.
Kentucky has the best horses
in the world, and they are admir-
ably suited for the climate in
Mexico, he said.

MAY THE BEST MAN WIN

Hon. Shelton Saufey, Editor of
the Interior Journal, of Stanford,
has announced that he will enter
the Democratic contest for the
nomination for Congress from
the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict, which district is now rep
resented by Hon. Harry Helm.
Both candidates are from Stan
ford, and Mr.. Saufey has hereto
fore been an ardent supporter of
Mr.. Helm. Now things are not
so pleasant between them as
they once were, and Mr.. Saufey
is going in to win. Therefore we
may expect the woods to be thor
oughly shelled and all votes sent
to the polls.
Mr.. Saufey starts out in the
campaign adhering closely to
President Wilson and his teach
ings. Mr.. Helm adheres to the
Democratic party and its teach
ings. Mr.. Saufley is an exceed
ingly pleasant gentleman of fine
qualifications and gave our office
a call. Happily, we are absolved
in this race from a choice by rea-
son of profession or avocation,
because brother Saufey is one of
the editorial family and brother
Helm is one of the legal frater-
nifty.
May the best man win.

PRIZES

We have always contended
that running prize contests in
newspapers was a violation of
law and now comes the post
office department with an order
prohibiting such publications
from the use of the mails.
This is clearly against the
state law and is punishable by
confinement in the penitentiary.
However, many newspapers
are doing this in utter disregard
of both the state and the nation
al law.
The question is very pertinent.
How are the ones who want to
respect and obey the law to get
protection from this wrongful
use of the mails unless the de-
partments and courts enforce the
law?

President Wilson expressed
his sorrow over the Americans
killed at Vera Cruz, and he and
Secretary Daniels wrote letters to
the parents of the eight sailors
that were killed.
He used the words of Lincoln
as follows: Il feel how weak
and fruitless must be any words
OF mine which should attempt to
beguile you from a loss so over
whelming. But / cannot refrain
from rendering to you the consc-
lation that may be found in the
thanks of the republic they died
to save. / pray that our Heavenly
Father may assuage the anguish
of your bereavement and leave
you only the cherished memory oil
the loved and lost and the solemn
pride that must be yours to have
laid SO costly a sacrifice upon the
altar Of freedom.

When Ships Put Out To Sea

From the Courier-Journal
It's Sweet, sood-bye| when remnants fly
And ships put out to sea;
It's loving kiss, and tear or two
In an eye of brown or an eye of blue
And you'll remember me,
Sweetheart
And you'll remember me.
It's Friend or foe?" when signals blow
And ships sight ships at sea:
It's %Clear for action and man the guns p
AS the battle nears or the battle runs
And you'll remember me,
Sweetheart,
And you'll remember me-
It's deck to deck and wrath and wreck
When the ships go down at sea;
It's stream of shot and shrek of shell,
And hull and turret roaring hell
And you'll remember me,
Sweetheart,
And you'll remember me.
".
It's doom and death and pause breath
While ships go down at sea;
It's hate is over and love begins,
And war is cruel whoever wins
And you'll remember me,
Sweetheart,
And you'll remember me.

in the color of the complexion, according
to DR.. Mary Crawford, of New York, who
makes physical examinations of women
applicants for civil service positions.
Women who wear low-heeled, comfor-
table shoes are healthier, have better COM
plexions and are happier than those who
wear high-heeled shoes" she avows.
'When woman's feet feel comfortable
she dosen't hesitate to walk. Walking

ATTORNEY c. 1. YOUNG GIVES
OPINION ON ANIL ASSESS
MEN1.

That the state board of equalization
has limited levying taxation to tn
amount of four mills on the taxabl
property of the state, for all purpose
and enough additional only to pay in
terest on the states indebtedness, il
the opinion handed down by Attorne!
C. L. Young of Bismarck. Attorney
Young has been requested by the com
mittee appointed at the meeting hello
in this city yesterday by the heads Of
the state educational institutions tt
look into the legality OF the present
tax levy, by which the appropriations
for these institutions were materially
cut down.
Attorney Young admits that there
is some question as to the constitu
tionality of legislative enactments for
special taxation, but states that he be-
lieves that such laws would be up
held by the supreme court. The levy
by the present board of equalization
this year, he believes, is illegal as in
his opinion they have levied for fu-
ture appropriations and needs, which
is expressly against the constitution,
he finds. A reading of Attorney
Young's opinion gives the impression
that the levy this year could have been
kept within the strict constitutional
limits and the educational institutions
still be amply provided for if the
board had not set aside money for fu-
ture appropriations.
The opinion does not specify what
counsel considers future needs Of the
items provided for by the equalization
board, but he recommends that man.
1amus proceedings be instituted
against the state auditor for a recerti-
ication of the items provided for by
he levy, demanding that certain items
oe eliminated and more funds be pro-
vided for the educational institutions
affected.
The heads Of the state institutions
With several members of the boards Of
trustees met in this city short time
ag0 and decided to- engage legal aid
md ascertain the best methods to use
% get the full appropriations provid-
ID by the legislature for these insti-
utions. They complained that the &C.
ion of the board of equalization is UNI
awful and has deprived these institu.
ions of necessary funds to carry on
he work and meet the obligations en-
cred into, thus causing much hard
hip Among them. A future meeting
will be held at which it will be deter:
mined what further steps to take, it
s said.
