John Sport" Sullivan of Bost on,
against whom a true bill was voted

thing he knows about the gambling
plot when he appears before the grand

DALTON, Mass, Oct. 2.-Former
United States Senator w. Murray
Crane, who has been seriously i'll for
several weeks, died suddenly at his
home here early today.
While in attendance at the notifica-
ton ceremonies of Governor Calvin
Coolidge as Republican vice president
ial nominee at Northampton last sum-
mer Mr.. Crane was strikcn ILL., He re-
covered quickly, however and it was
announced that he was overcome by
the heat.
a few weeks ago his condition be-
came SO serious that he was confined
to his bed. He failed rapidly last
night and death occurred about A
O'Clock this morning
An outstanding characteristic of
Mr.. Crane, former governor Of Mass
achusettS and for two terms United
States senator from that state, was
the fact that he attained eminence in
public life without being an orator.
Although he served eight years in the
senate it was said of him that he
never made what really could be call
ed speech" in that body. The sue.
cessor of Senator Hoar, whose wit
and eloquence rang through the halls
of congress, Cranes chief claim to dis

Andrews hospital after an illness of
seven days with pneumonia.
Mr.. Christianson was born at julien,
Denmark, Dec 27, 1864 and came to
this country in 1880 locating near
Brownsdate, Mimi. In 1884 he was
united in marriage to Hannah, Thomp-
son They came to Bottineau in Sept.
1898, locating on a homestead in the
Turtle Mountains, where they resided

a kind and faithful father
A precious one from US has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.

The one his love has given,
And though the body slumbers here,
The soul is safe in heaven.-Contrib-

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Last Thursday the girls Glee Club
went to Grand Forks to take part in
the musical contest held at the Univer-
sity. There were eight Girls Glee Clubs
competing and altho Bottineau did not
succeed in getting first place very
creditable showing was made. James
town won first honors and Grand
Forks second, these two being the only
ones that were ranked. However ev-
eryone was convinced that the Botti-
neau girls ranked either third or
fourth. The girls, under the direction
of Miss Vessel have been working
hard for the past few months and
they can be congratulated upon the
good work done and the splendid
showing at the University. Other
events of interest during the high
school conference were the track meet,
the defamation contest and the de-
bate The honors in the debate were
taken by Rugby.
The Seniors are busy planning for
a full weeks program during the last
week of school, May 81 to June 4. At
least three of these events will be of
interest to the general public, the
class play, the class day exercises and
the commencement exercises. Only one
of these dates has been definitely set,
the commencement exercises on June
a. Dean Kennedy of the University
will give the address. The dates for
the others will be announced later.
The Seniors request that the public
keep this week open as much as pos
sible so as to be able to attend these
exercises.
The Freshmen are busy with their
play, which is a dramatization of
Booth Tarkington's Seventeen" AL
tho it is Freshman play, some of the
characters have been chosen from 9TH
er classes, the idea being to give pu-
pills, who have not been in any dram
atics this year, a chance to appear.
The cast is hard at work under the
direction of Miss Emge. The tenta-
tive date for this play is next Wednes
day evening May 26th.
In order that the pupils may not be
rushed with work the last week of
school, some of the final examinations
are being given. Regular recitations
will, however, be held, even after the
examinations are over and no credits
will be given until all required work
is completed in satisfactory manner.

he City of Minot in which William
Langer was burned in effigy in 1917
was the scene of his nomination for
governor by the wing of the Republic
! can party which is opposed to the
farner-labor program and which set
the match in 1917. LANCER and his
friends forced that section of the re-
dictionaries which distrusted him be-
cause of his betrayal of the farmer
movement to accept him as their can
didate. The hackers of r. A. Nestos
made vigorous fight for him but
when LANCER was decisively elected
they moved that the nomination be
unanimous. The other traitors to the
voters who elected them, Thomas Hall
and Carl Kositzky were named to sue
ceed themselves by the men who two
years ago denounced them in bitter
terms.
LANCER had accepted the nomination
before he had read the platform but
said that the very fact that it had
been adopted by the I. v. A. conven-
ton was sufficient guarantee that it
was sound. The platform consists Of
diatribes against Socialism" and some
rather inocuous phrases. In one Sec
ton public ownership Of marketing ia
cilities and utilities is condemned. In
another the platform favors the state
going into the milling business to the
extent of expending $2,000,000. Labor
is handed the harmless piece of taffy
ian honest days wage for an honest
days work." How much they favor
labor may be inferred from the fact
that they condemn the anti-injunction
bill and ask it's repeal as we'll as ad-
vocate amendments to the workmen's
compensation law
"Fress Love" Burtness was named
congressional candidate from the first
district George M. Young, from the
second and George P Homness from
the third. The matter of endorsing
candidate for the u. S. Senate was
left to the anti-farmer minority of the
Republican state committee, Frank
Streeter is down for lieutenant COVER
nor; John Steen for state treasurer;
R. F. Gallager for attorney general;
L. p Sandstrom for commissioner Of
agriculture and labor; Fl. T. Guam
beck for commissioner of insurance
and Minnie J. Nelson for superinten-
dent of public instruction. W. H. Stuts-
man Jack Williams and e. J. Kreuger
are slated for railroad commissioners.
The platforms attacks the absent
voters law, the hail insurance law,
the Homebuilders act and the Bank of
North Dakota. In fact the general at
titude of the delegates was that things
are out of joint. In this spirit A. w.
Fowler, corporation attorney of Fargo,
said "the primary system is wrong.
Give US back the old honestly conduct
ed nomination convention. The ''hon-
estly conducted" touch brought
quaint smile to the faces of some of
the old guard.

LIFE OF LINCOLN To BE
SHOWN ON SCREEN

In "The Land of Opportunity" a
Selznick super-feature which comes to
the Grand Theatre next Saturday, a
Water in a New York club relates
three incidents in the life of Abraham
Lincoln, which conveys the lesson that
the United States is the land Of op-
portunity and that Lincoln grasped
it early in his youth, with the result
that he laid down loyalty as the rock
upon which to build success.
In this screen play Ralph Ince, the
noted director, is said to portray Lin
coin as no other actor ever has por-
trayed him. Not only does he express
all the lovable traits of man, but he
has made such a close study Of his
subject that all the little mannerisms,
expressions and attitudes of the Civil
War President are interpreted faith
fully.
Back in 1923 Lincoln was given a
sound bit Of advice, to the effect that
opportunity was all about him and
that he had only to open his eyes. He
never forgot that advice. In q later
year 1863, when he was campaigning
against Stephen A. Douglas, he drop
ped everything to go to the aid Of the
woman who had thus advised him. It
is around these two Incidents that
''The Land Of Opportunity" is written.

farmer AND FRIENDS

I notice in last weeks Farmers Ad-
syocate (sic), this it's so-called editor
has started out to be smart and show
off the college education he is at so
much pains to have US understand he
received. You know of course that Will
lies mamma sent him to school and
college, yes sir to college, and us poor
ignorant, benighted farmers who new
er went to college, and never had the
wonderful ability to put our thoughts
and ideas into good English, and have
them printed, are losing the one great
opportunity of our lives in not read
ing and thus acquiring this great
knowledge and wisdom. What do we
know anyway about what is good for
US, or who are our friends? How in
thunder could we be expected to know
that all knowledge and wisdom is kept
bottled up in colleges, and you must
go there and get it or do without? {?
Robert Burns, in one of his poems,
aptly describes the result when such
egotistical specimens are sent to col
lege. He says, "They gang in stairks
and cam cot asses" After all, wisdom
is mostly gained by experience, knowl-
edge MAY be gotten in colleges, but
without wisdom, or in other words
good, plain horse sense, is of little
use and often makes bigger fools Of
men who might have been Of some use
without it. Most of us read lots of
magazines, books, and papers these
days and are often better informed
than the college graduate or the COL
lege professor, either as to what is
going on in the world and the various
problems of life.
Willie seems to have gotten the idea
into his little head that calling the
public officials elected by their farm
er friends, ward d-healing, carpet bag
bing, pap-sucking, buccaneering, hy-
phenated leeches who are soaking up
tribute under and by virtue Of the so
called farmers movement" is smart
and that because some Of these men
have earned their daily bread at some
time in their lives outside Of the farm
ing business they are Of necessity not
farmers friends nor in sympathy with
the farmers movement. We do not
claim or expect all or any Of our pub
lie officials to be perfect or to be
college bred and as wise as Willie,
but we do claim that they are at
least conscientiously trying to fulfill
their official duties as well IS any Of
Willie's /. ". "A. crowd could do, and
