Roosevelt should hang heads in shame because
we are not at WAR with Germany in behalf Of Belgium!
Roosevelt says that following the sinking Of the Lustana
he would have foregone diplomacy and seized every ship
ports flying the German flag. That would have meant WAR;
Hughes says He and Roosevelt are
in Complete Accord!
The Lesson is Plain!
IF You Want WAR
Vote for HUGHES!
If You Want Peace With Honor
and Continued Prosperity
VOTE FOR WILSON!

with arrest himself unless he did so.
he turned over 80 quarts of the
whiskey and the Buick roadster.
The officers did not bring: the Buick

Mr., Hopkins was unable to learn
very much about the shooting al
fair at Bottineau, but finally Sher.

and deputies were out looking for
whiskey runners and had secretet
themselves under culyert. At
three o'clock in the morning, lie

lights came slipping Quietly along.
Hennessy stepped out into the road
and ordered the driver to stop.
Rowan kept on, it is said and Hen

started firing. One shot punctured
the radiator and as the car darted
past, another charge was fired into
the car, striking Rowan from the
side and rear. Rowan, atlho fear
fully injured, kept, right on going
with the sheriff's car in pursuit.
Rowan drove for about >. fourteen

IS POISONED BY
ROTTEN WH|SKEY

Columbus Reporter: One Of the
most tragic deaths which We have
ever been called upon to chronicle
occurred on Sunday evening of this
week, when Nick Kohen, young
man of health and vigor, succumbed
from the effects of an over dose Of
Canadian ''rotgut" wahiskey. Co.
ing to bed Sunday evening under
the influence of this liquor, this
young man never regained con-
seriousness and the attending physi-
clan pronounced i. case of alco-
holic poisoning
Nick Kohen is quite we'll known
around Columbus. He is a broth
er of Mrs. Chas. Tyson of this place,
and recently came to this part of
North Dakota to go into the har-
vest fields. Some years ago his
father and mother lived just across
the line in Canada and it was AT
the old homestead where Nick
Kohen died
The circumstances surrounding
his death were as follows: On ac-
count of the bad weather Nick Ko-
hen and two other fellow compan-
ions were forced to lay off work and
took occasion to go to Canada and
purchase some whiskey. The boot
leggers in that country sold these
men unsealed, unbonded, etherized
Whiskey, using the majestic brand
label on the bottles. 1t is the Gus
tom among some of the wholesalers
in that country to distill their own
Whlskey and then use some favoritt,
brand labels as a selling induce
ment. The whiskey was typical
moonshine, rotgut whiskey, and il
used to any great extent serves to
paralyze the entire body and ner-
vous system. The men purchased
about twelve quarts of this whiskey
and returned home. Sunday even
ing they proceeded to drink very
heavily, Nick becoming very .intoxi-
Gated and before being put to bed
was in a very drunken condition
He was put in bed about midnight
Sunday night. and his death oc-
Cured some time during the night.
His companions arose as usual Mon
day morning and called Nick. He
did not answer and they upon in
vestigaing found him dead.
A coroner's inquest was held yes
terday. The death of this young
man should serve as warning to
others who are in the habit of going
to Canada and purchasing rotten
whiskey. Its effects are very dan
ger9us. &c Y! =, as Was, shown in. Mr., Ko~
nen s~ease. lS~-f ~

the deceased's relatives in mourning
the unfortunate death of this young
man.
