Wants DeIberatiOn Before Legislation,

Another attempt OF the Democrats in
the House to rush through an import.
ant bill with scarcely any debate was
frustrated by Republican Represent
alive Edward f. Dennison OF Illinois,
The measure referred to relates to the
issuance Of securities by carriers, ard
agects the entire interstate commerce
OF the country. The Democratic chair
man Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mittee urged that it be considered i'm
mediately and put upon its passage,
bu, Mr., Denison obi j'cted. II do not
think said he, that question that
affects all the railroads Of the country
ought to be settled in an hour" The
bill being on the unanimous consent
calendar Mr.. Dennison's opposition
was sufficient to carry it over until
more propiiious time for its consider
alton.

Consumption is not only the most

the form which is most contagious.
In it the lung breaks down into ab

For this reason, it is important that all
cows giving milk for human use should

test is extremely accurate, and detects
the disease in very early stage when
it can not be found out by any other
means.
In human beings the disease is

"LlFE OF OUR SAVIOUR"

"A Dramatic Masterpiece in Z
Reels, Pathe Colored.
Some two thousand years ago
there was born at Nazareth, He
whose teachings have enlightened
the world. The events of Jesus
life, from the manger to the ascen
sion. make the most stirring story
of all time to all the races Of man
kind. The Pauhe Company, to
fill a long-felt want, organized a
company of the best actors and
produced THE LIFE OF OUR SAN-
IOUR, an accurate, superbly acted,
dramatic INSTALLATION Of Jesus
journey on earth. The compila-
tion of this chronology of Jesus is
truly an achievement worthy Of
the highest praise as it truthfully
and geographically portrays with
grace and dignity His sufferings
and final achievement. This work
represents a lifetime of careful
study and an immense financial
outlay, and because of its tre-
mendous subjects is The World S
Greatest Drama. The picture
is colored and exquisitely arrahg-
ed so as to bring to the vision a
graphic realization of the infinite
simplicity, yet monumental
strength of Jesus.
Mr.. GILES has arranged to show
this picture at the Grand Theat-
re, Breckenridge on Friday even-
ing, March 10th. :

Series of ol'atorical selection
by gifted orators of he H. s. were
given last week. They were pro-
longed thruout the week, two be-

Frank Bernard and Carl 5.
have been absent from school this
week.
The H. s. body is thankful for
the return of warm or at least
warmer weather, since by the new
rules the building is to remain
closed until 1915.
Last week the seniors decided
on "Nihil Sine Lahore" nothing
without labor, as their motto and
old rose and silver as their colors.
The flowers and class play will
be taken up at the next meeting.
There is faint rumor of an
other club i'm H. s. Some say it

rowwLEy SPEAKS nEkE
ON MARCH 27th

On March 27th, A. C. Townl7y,
president and chief organizer of
the Nonoartisan League will speak
at WaIllpeton.
Mr. Townley should prove an
unusual attraction as he is, with
out question, the most dominat-
ing influence in the political affa-
irs of North Dakota at the pre-
sent time. Both friends and en-
amies will agree on this.
Mr.. Townley will speak very
largely on the work of the recent
Legislature and will no doubt try
to show what the League memb-
ers have tried to do for the farm
ars of the State. At the same
time, he will show how the opposi
tion members of the Senate have
frustrated the plans of the Nom
partisan League.
Two years ago Mr.. Townlcy and
the Nonpartisan League were both
unknown quantities. in the State.
Today their Influence is to be re-
cknncd with in not only this
/! State, but thruout the Northwest.
The organization is now being
rapidly extended into Minnesota.
South Dakota and Montana and it
is reported THAT work will soon be
commenced in practically all the,
; agricultural states i'm the Union.
Mr.. Townley is at the head of the:
National organization as we'll as
at the head of the League in this
State and is the prime factor in
, bringing about a further develop
ment of this wonderful farmers
movement.
Whether one is a friend or foe
of the League he should come out
to hear Mr.. Townley. Come out
and see and hear the man who has
been largely instrumental i'm bring
ing about such Il remarkable ov-
cr-lura i'm the political affairs of
the State.

INDIAN SCHOOL NOTES

Through the efforts of Senator
McCumber, the Indian School
will hate for hhe next fiscal
year the largest appropriation
ever available for it's use, $8O,54O.
In addition to the regular sup
port fund which will be sufficient
to maintain two hundred and tw-
enty pupils there will be available
100000 for a new school build
ing, $4,000 for an assembly hall,
$1,000 for new cottages and S.
900 for the repair improvement
of other buildings. These addi-
tions to the Indian School plant
will make it quite we'll equipped
for the work that it should do. II
is probable that the School Build
ing and Assembly Hall will be
combined into one, thus making a
$4,000 building. 1t will probab-
ly face 9Th street, just south OF
the hospital. The cottages will
be erected just south and across
the street from the Gym. 1t is
hoped that the plans and specifica
tions for these buildings will be
prepared in short time so that
the contract may be let and the
work begun early in the summer.
Glen Bellanger, a former pup
il of, this school, has been visit
ing here for short time. He
has been on the Border with the
Minnesota regiment and has been
on leave of absence. Glen is a
good boy and we were pleased 30
see him again.
There will be a social for all
the pupils Saturday evening,
March 18th. This is the first OF
such occasions for some little
time and the pupils anticipate an
unusually good time.
1t is hoped that the inclement
weather us over and our regular
midweek and Sunday evening as
semblies will be resumed.
The farm boys are getting prac,
ical training by painting the farm
wagons.
