REPUBLICAN
CONSTRUCTIVE
LEGISLATION

Washington, July 10.-Special (cor-
respondence)-No other national leg
istion within the last quarter Of a cen
fury, has done more to protect and
promote the health of the American
people and prevent financial loss thru
fraud and deception than has the no.
tional pure food law, which was en-
acted in 1906 by a congress that was
Republican in both branches, and
signed by a Republican president.
This law was peculiarly a Republi-
can idea for it asserted the power of
the general government to enact leg
islation of this kind, a power which
was denied by Democrats who were
advocates Of the doctrine of states
rights. President Wilson apparently
overlooked this law when he said re-
Gently that hte Republican party had
not had a new idea in thirty years.
The only votes cast against the bill
were by Democrats, and n of those

was by Congressman A. S. Burleson,
of Texas, now Postmaster General, the
only member of that Congress spec
tally honored by President Wilson.
While commonly referred to as a
"pure food law" the act regulates the
manufacture and sale of not only food
but drugs, confectionery, medicines,
and liquors.; insures purity, prevents
misbranding, prohibits adulteration,
requires full weight and measure, and
forbids the use of poisonous and die
FERROUS substances.
The law requires that if certain
habit forming drugs be contained in a
medical preparation, that fact shall be
plainly stated on the label and that the
quantity of alcohol contained in medi-
cine be specified. 1t prohibits remov-
ing part or all of the contents of a re-
ceptical and substitution of another
article different from that indicated
on the package. In the case of foods
put up in packages, it requires that
the weight or measure be specified on
the label. Sale or packing of partly
decomposed meats is forbidden. All
these provisions ERE necessary for
the protection of public health and for
the prevention of fraud in the manu-
facture and sale of food and drugs.
The enactment of the pure food law
was largely due to the persistent re-
concentrations of a Republican presi-
dent. The bill which became a law
was introduced in the Senate by a
Republican Senator Hepburn, Of Ida
no, and although it had only four neg
ative votes in that branch of Con-
gress, those four votes were recorded
by Democrats.
The bill met more vigorous oppo-

SERIOUS CHARGES
AGAINST DANIELS

Ray, N. D., July 15.-Charles Dan
iels who has been employed at the An
derson restaurant for some time, was
arrested last Saturday night on a
charge of attempted rape, the victim
being Hazel lime, a 12-year old girl,
who had been working at the Daniels
home and the attempted assault took
place Saturday afternoon at about 6
o'clock according to the complaint
which was filled against him. A war
rant for the arrest Of Daniels was
made out late in the afternoon and
about 2 o'clock the next morning Po-
liceman Smith arrested the man and
lodged him in the city Jail.
Daniels was taken to Williston on
Tuesday evening to await a hearing.
The story Of the case is a most re-
voting n and if the charge is prov
en- the penalty will be a term in the
pen.

AMMUNITION IS
AWAITING NOW

If there is any peaceful people in
the United States whom the var is
hitting any harder than any body else
those people are the nimrods. The
great demand for powder in Europe
has sent the price of ammunition of all
kinds aeroplaning among the clouds
and the end is not yet in sight. Just
recently shot and shells have jumped
Is per cent in price and are now SELL
ing for Sc cents and more per box.
The hunters are rather on the anx-
ious seat just at present and many Of
them have laid in a big supply Of
shells for fall s and others are
thinking about it. They say there is
no telling when the war will end or
who is going to get into it and they
think it just as well to stock up for
any amount of hunting they intend to
do this coming fall.
There ase going to be ducks and
geese and chickens in plenty this fall
and hunting should be excellent in
almost all parts of the state, except,
perhaps in those portions of the state
where young chickens were drowned.
Fortunately this section is not Large
and the chicken crop is going to be a
bumper" one.
American powder factories are
working night and day on awr orders,
according to reports and the hunters
face the possibility of going back to

NORTH DAKOTA LEADS
IN CROP PROSPECTS


Dickinson, N. D., July 14.-There
will be the biggest yield of wheat and
other crops from this district that it
has ever been our privilege to record.
An automobile trip in any direction
for so miles from Dickinson tells the
same story. Wheat is in excellent
condition and should average at least
20 to rs bushels; oats, 80 to 60, with
corresponding yields from all other
grains.
The three days frost has hindered
corn crop though not destroyed it.
The winter rye also suffered from
frost, otherwise the prospects are fine.
A much larger acreage is in crop, pos
sibly rs per cent over last year.

FIRE AT Lorraine
CAUSES HEAVY LOSS

Sherwood, N. D., July 14.-Fire at
Lorraine completely destroyed F. ]. E.
Bottoms blacksmith shop and acety-
lene welding plant, and A. D. Ketch-
ANS barn and other small outbuild-
ings totalling a loss Of $500. Mr..
Bottoms loss was about $4,000.
How the fire started is a mystery,
and circumstances lead some to be-
lieve that it was of incendiary origin.
It was discovered a little after mid
night, but had gained such a Roadway
that only by strenuous efforts was it
possible to save the Ketcham house.
The loss is a heavy one for Mr. Boil
ton, who had built up a substantial
business since locating in Lorraine in
1908. He enjoyed a splendid patron
age and may rebuild in response to
the pressure being brought to bear on
him by his customers.

BLOOM SOME
REPUBLICAN

No man in North Dakota appears
to take a greater interest in the af-
fairs of the Republican party of the
state than John Bloom, of the Devils
Lake Journal. To read Blooms sheet
one would think he was a super-sen-
sitive Republican and the sole keeper
of the party conscience. AS a matter
of fact Bloom is a Democrat-one of
the Democrats for revenue kind, and is
now holding the job of postmaster at
Devils Lake contrary to the provisions
of the federal constitution. The last
fact may be the reason for his great
interest in the Republican party and
Republican officials. He may feel that
in crying "stop thief at the top of his
voice he can distract the public gaze
from his own shortcomings. Bloom is
a great poser, a great reformer-of
other peoples failings.-Walsh Coun-
ty Record.

Men engaged in the feb business in Alaska, aud perhaps the mem bers of the Territorial legislature may be able to pick up a few points from the follow ing, printed in the Seattle P. l.: Fish traps, once considered the best and most reliable way of catching salmon, are doomed since the advent of the purse seiners and the law which per. mits the seines to blanket the traps, acc coarding to J. D. Carroll, an Anacortes canneryman, who is @ guest at the Se- attle. "There need be no Legislation to abolish traps to save the salmon" said Carroll yesterday The purse seiners have attended to that matter we'll and within a very short time traps will be scarce. The recent rulings permitting purse seiners to lay out from the lead of trap to the jigger means that the trap can be blanketed and lose it's value as 8 means of obtaining fish. The fact that a trap has been driven in any location serves as a notification that fish are expected to be found there and the purse seiners flock around accord
 inRly. The devices don't always pay, either. A trap may be driven at great expense aud then never catch a Ash. This season one man put in trap at cost of s6,5OO and he caught thirty eight salmon in it." Mir. Carroll de- slares that if a man is lucky he can make a success of the caunery business whether he be a business man or not. "It is all gamble" he said. "If you have lnck and get your traps where the Ash are, you will make a winning. Then again if you are lucky in getting a good crew or are able to make a satis- factory deal in buying your fish you will make a success of the business. It is not matter of great mental power or effort nor an industry that calls for man of giant mental calibre."

Tin Concentrates Are
 Shipped from Nome

About thirty tons of tin concentrates brought down from the Buck creek dredge by the silver wave, were shipped Outside on the Victoria. This is the second consignment of tin shipped to the Outside during the present season. The Victoria also took out shipment of thirty tons of antimony ore from the He'd mine, in addition to one hundred tons of the same kind of ore taken on at St. Michael from the mines of the interior. Reliable information indi- cates that the antimony minee in the Fairbanks district are preparing to make extensive shipments of the min. eral during the coming summer. The anthony mine owners of the interior were quick to realize the possibilities incident to the increase of price during the war period and several large ship ments have since been forwarded to the states long ago. A total of nearly hf- teen hundred tons have been shipped so far, the first of which came down on the first steamer down the Yukon last spring. The most striking feature of this matter is that, until very recently, the owners of antimoDy lodges around Nome made little or no effort to do any thing with their ores, although the news that the interior was shipping the mineral down the Yukon reached Nome several months ago. With the most valuable deposits in the whole territory lying within das's walk of the city, but a pitiful shipment of thirty tons have left this port to date Why this should be is a matter for wonder Nome Nugget.

New York.-AlteruatiVe proposals to it's shareholders were announced to- night by the Guggenheim Exploration Company as to the methods which the company may follow in disposiug of it's holding of shares of the Utah Copper Company to the Kennecott Copper Corporation. Embodied in the an- uouncement was the information that the Kennecott is planning the acquis
 ition of the Copper River & Northwest ern railroad, tbe largest railroad iu AL aska, with indications that control of the Alaska Steamship Company is to be similarly taken over by the Kenne. colt. The announcement stated that the directors deemed it impracticable to dispose of the 5O4,5O4 shares of the capital stock of the Utah Copper Com pany in the open market and consider
 ed it unwise to distribute it among the stockholders under conditions likely to result in a substantial shrinkage in value. Shareholders of the Guggen
 helm Exploration are, therefore, given the choice of either accepting cash at the rate of 70 per share for'the stock ot the Utah Copper, to be sold to the Ken. necott, or to accepting shares of the Kenuecott. In explaining advantages  of the shareholders of the Guggeuheim Exploration Company accepting shares of Kenuecott on the sale of Utah Cop per, it is stated that the Kennecott in- tends to purchase from the Alaska syndicate the entire capital stock and all the outstanding bonds of the Cop
 per River and Northwestern railroad and 13,OO0 shares of the capital stock of the Alaska Steamship Company.
