News Of Especial Interest to

MICHAEL DORIAN IS DEAD
Former Leader of State Democratic
Organization Expires at St. Paul
at Age Of Eighty-seven.

Michael Doran, eighty-seven years
Of age, a power in Democratic state
politics for many years, is dead at st.
Paul of infirmities due to his ad-
vanced age.
Mr.. Doran was born in Ireland,
coming to America when nineteen
years of age. He reached Minnesota
in 1857, taking homestead near LIE
Sueur. Mr.. Doran entered politics in
LIE Seuer county, being elected county
treasurer three years after he took, up
homestead. In 1864 he was dele
gate to the national Democratic con-
vention, a position that he held until
1896. In 1870 he was elected a mem
Der of the Minnesota senate, failing of
ate seat again in 1875, serving four
more years. His last two terms in
the upper house were from 1888 to
1885. Then he ceased finally to rep
resent the Nineteenth district
About this time he began the man
agement of the affairs of the Demo
cratic party in the whole state. In the
first administration of Cleveland the
firm of 'Me and Mike" P. H. Kelly,
the wholesale grocer, and Mr.. Doran,
came into existence. Old politicians
assert that from 1885 to 1889 and from
1898 to 1897 Doran and Kelly handled
the patronage of the state. 1t is said
that during these years there was not
an appointment made that did not
bear the o. K. of one or both of these
men.

OUR CALENDAR Imperfect.
Under the Present System a Day Is
Lost Every $500 Years.


Many people are dissatisfied with the
calendar. They propose to take it back
and change it. They would have to go
back to an act Of the British parlia-
ment in 1751-that is, English speak
ing folk woodland then still farther
into the recesses Of time. 1t was that
statute which later led American
schoolboys into doubt as to whether
George Washington was born on Feb.
% or Feb. II. Eleven days were lost
between julius Caesar and George
Washington, but that hardly seems ap-
palling enough, after all to justify so
many preachments on the subject of
lost time, does it? The way things are
arranged now it will be $500 years or
more before we lose another day.
The scientist, however, is never salts
fed with anything less than accuracy,
! and he wants perfect calendar. He
has taken his ideas of reform into the
legislatures of several nations, but
nothing has happened yet. Reform is
sure to get into trouble, anyway, when
it gets into politics. But truth, crushed
to earth, shall rise again, and maybe
the dream of the scientist will come
true. The first day Of every month
will fall on the first day Of the week,
and so forth. The printed calendar
which comes from the insurance COM
pany or the grocery store will be just
as good one year as another. and the
months will be all alike Probably
more durable form will be invented, so
that it will last lifetime, be moved
from house to house with the rest Of
the furniture and be handed down to
future generations as an heirloom.
Time, with such calendar, wouldn't
seem so fighty.-Philadelph Ledger.

HAS FAITH IN CONSTITUTION
Minnesota House Kills Bills Provid
ing for Revision.

Faith in the state constitution, which
has weathered the storm of fifty eight
years, was expressed by the lower
house of the legislature when it de-
feated two bills proposing a conven
ton for the revision of the ancient
document. The vote came after near
ly four hours of debate.
The measure fathered by Represen
tative G. B. Bjornson of Minneota was
the first to meet defeat. The vote
was SO to SO, two-thirds majority be-
ing necessary to pass it. The Knee
land-Sawyer resolution went down to
defeat, 81 to Sc.
The Bjornson bill provided for sub
mission to the people at the next gen
eral election the question of whether
constitutional convention is desired
The Kneeland-Sawyer measure would
amend the section requiring a two
thirds vote by the legislature and
would authorize the legislature to
call constitutional convention once
in twenty years, or more often, by q
vote of the people.

BILL ASKS FOR 100000
Measure in Minnesota Legislature to
Provide for llnononlovad

Measure in Minnesota Legislature to
Provide for Unemployed.
A million-dollar bill has made
it's appearance in the state senate,
being sponsored by Senators R. S.
Jones of Duluth and w. A. Campbell
OF Minneapolis. The bill aims to pro-
vide work for the unemployed. This
is the first time that $1,OOO,OOO has
been asked for in a bill in the Mime
sofa legislature except for support of
the state institutions.
The Jones-Campbell bill provides
for a reclamation board consisting of
the governor, secretary of state, aud
itor, treasurer and attorney general.
The duties of this board will be to
select swamp, stump or cutover land
for reclamation and the lands to be
sold at public sale.
The measure is the outgrowth of a
meeting last week of 5000 unemploy-
ed in Minneapolis.

Holly Contested Election Results in
Victory for the Vets.

After the most spirited contest in
the history of Moorhead the vets
were victorious over the anti-liquor
forces at the local option election by
forty-fve votes, according to the un
official count
, The total vote was 1905, which is
275 more than cast at any previous
election.
One reason assigned for the large
vote is that every ballot that could
possibly be cast on either side was
brought out.
Bedridden men, who had not been
out of their homes for months, were
taken to the polls.
The drys charge that large mum
Der of illegal votes were cast.
Both sides had challengers at the
polls and the result of this was the
arrest of three men. It is asid that
one is a resident of Fargo and the
other two had not been in Moorhead
sufficient length of time.

TREAT CANCER QUICKLY.

IL 70 Not Surgery, but Delayed Sur
gerry, That Fails to Cure" B, -. ST
That cancer is at first local growth
and not general disease of the sys-
tenn is now clearly established. This
fact is Of the utmost importance, since
In holds out high hope of cure If the
malignant growth is removed before
1t has time to spread to other parts Of
the body. Cancer beginning in one spot
later appears elsewhere, because small
particles or cells are carried away
from the first site and start other
growths, not because there exists pre-
viously some poison in the blood which
causes the disease to break out in
different parts of the body. The great
hope Of cure, therefore, lies in remov-
ing cancer entirely from the system be-
fore it has a chance to spread from its
first foothold.
The reason why so many people
came, to believe that cancer was a
blood disease is doubtless because it
was observed to come again in the
same or other parts of the body after
having been apparently cut out. It
was natural to assume that when the
disease kept coming back in this man
ner there must be some cause or faint
In the blood which led to it's breaking
out in different places much like GER
tain skin Diseases
The trouble which started this falla-
cious reasoning was that in those
earlier days cancer was not so well
understood as it now is. Surgeons
then did the best they knew how, but
without the advantages Of modern
methods they were unable successfully
to exterminate the disease. The micro
scope has now shown us the paths by
which cancer cells start their invasion
of the body if the first and local ap-
pearance is neglected. Modern sur
geons are, therefore, repeatedly sue
cessful in removing the disease once
for all. AS an eminent American
doctor has we'll said, 1T is not surgery,
but delayed surgery, that fails to cure

Jesse headed band of eight outlaws
in an attempt to rob the Mortified
bank. The attempt was one of the
most desperate In the annals of crime
in Minnesota.
The gang rode into the town on
horseback. The brothers entered the
bank while the other six held back
the crowd. Jesse James ordered the
cashier, J. D. Haywood, to give him
the combination of the safe and shot
him dead when he refused.
The citizens, unawed by the bandits
on the steps of the bank, obtained
rifles and attacked the raiders. One
was killed and second wounded and
the others forced to flee. The James
brothers separated from their COM

gun battle that followed.
Bob, Cole and James Younger were
among those captured and were later
sentenced to life Imprisonment at Still

could not escape. Both were serious
