hands.
A degree of tenseness arose and
President Harding has made an ex-
traordinary demonstration of his
leadership by insisting that he shall
have a representative appointed by
him working with the Congress

of form must do the work The re-
organization Of the government will

Tariff and Taxatien.
The other two fields in which the
work of the present session, will lie
are tariff and taxation. The work
IN these ields is all ahead of us
and ,will begin during the coming
week. What has been done so far
around the emergency tariff bill is
in the nature of clearing the
ground. The emergency tariff bill
is merely to cover the period during
which a permanent tariff is to be
made.
In looking forward to the making
of his permanent bill, the most OBJ
vious feature is the fact that the
bulk of the work, and the best OF
the debating. will take. place In the
Senate. In the House, the leader
ship of both parties Is not such as
will be likely to compare with the
leadership in the Senate.
As RESPECTS the Democrats in the
House, both the leadership and the
rank and file were sadly weakened
by the landslide of the last election.
The Democrats have barely over a
fourth of the membership and their
leadership was deprived OF several
men who failed of reelection, the
best known of whom and perhaps
the ablest. as we'll was Henry T.
Rainey, of Illinois
Among the Democrats who re-
main in the House. the ofhclal lean
er will be Claude Kitehin. OF North
Carolina. But Kitchin's health Is
such that he cannot possibly endure
the gruelling of a session which Is
both a tariff one and a summer one
Last week, when the emergency
tariff was under consideration
Kitchin was unable to be present.
1t was intended, because oi
Kitchin's ill-health, that he should
turn the leadership over to another
but the man who was under discus
sion as his successor made the mis-
step in December OF supporting the
| original emergency tariff bill, ant
that heresy disqualified him.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR hAiR

Did it ever occur to you that
every movie actress you have seen
has lovely hair, while the most
popular count their curls as their
chief beauty? In fact. many are
leading ladies just because of their
attractive looks. Inquiry among
them discloses the fact that they
bring out all the natural beauty of
their hair by careful shampoing,
not with any soap or makeshift.
but with a simple mixture by put
ting teaspoonful of canthrox
(which they get from the drug
gist) in a cup of hot water and
applying this instead of soap. This
full cup Of shampo liquid Is enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. After its use. the hair dries
rapidly with uniform color. Dand-
ruff, excess oil and dirt are dis.
solved and entirely disappear. The
hair Is so fluffy that 1t looks much
heavier than II Is. its luster and
softness are deiightfui.--Adv.

Attorney General Lemke has been
injuncted by a Federal court sitting
at St. Paul from interfering with the
railroad rate grafters on June 10,
when the order Of the Interstate COM
nerce commission granting the roads
35 percent increase in freight rates
and 20 percent increase in passen-
ger fares goes into effect.
All the Iva bosses are undoubtedly
happy over this victory of the Cor
porations over the Commonwealth,
but they are not thru with the Attor-
ney General of North Dakota yet.
Lemke is still on the job, not Svein-
bjorn johnson.
Also by June 10, Lemke's fight for
just railroad rates will have saved
North Dakota shippers and travellers
the tidy sum of more than 81, 700, 900,
not one cent of which will go to the
Iva recall campaign fund or to buy
monkey dinners for the Hills and

HATFIELD BRINGS
TOO MUCH rain

Medicine Hat, May 18-Old Jupiter
Pluvius must be on friendly terms
with Charles M. Hatfield, the rain
maker.
After making rain for about a
month, prairie farmers have asked
Hatfield to turn off the moisture for
few days.
Tillers Of the soil who for years
have been experiencing drouts are sat
isfied that Hatfield can deliver the
rain as per contract and as Hatfield
has already made about $4,000 for his
months work, everybody is happy ex-
cept those who continue to sneer at
the rainmaker's scheme. u
Whether or not Hatfield's presence
in the district lis responsible, the fact
remains that rain has come since his
arrival. Old timers declare they have
never seen such heavy precipitation
or such a continuous presence OF so
many clouds. Z
Hatfield has erected his apparatus
on the eastern shore of Chappice Lake
substantial body Of water with sew
eral small lakes surrounding it. The
structure or tower is "a feet high, sup
porting wooden tank Ia feet square.
It is stated by Hatfield to be the
largest tank he has yet used. He says
it is in this that the chemicals are
placed which form the secret process.

HISTORY OF BOTTINEAu

Following are two stories on the
History Of Bottineau written by pu-.
pills Of the fourth grade.
Long ago before the white people
came td this country there lived y
tribe Of Indians called Chippewas, in
tl.is country. There were buffalo and
deer running wild. la
Then some white people came. Some
OF the first white peoples names were
Mr.. Griener, Mrs. Russell and Mr..
Cathro. Those men bought homesteads
because land was so cheap. All they
had to pay for an acre was from nine
ty cents q one dollar and twent give
cents.
After 4 Mnlle man started mill
in the hills. The farmers came with
their grain to get it ground up. Then
other men started stores until a town
started ia 1885. The company that
owned the railroad would not run a
railroad through because it was too
hilly. So they moved Bottineau in
1887 to where it is now.
Two Of the first houses were Koest-
erman's and Weaver's Undertaking
Parlors. One Of the stores was the
one standing now by Koesterman's
house.
The first school was the Catholic
church. The teacher was Mr.. Cathro.
The men that owned the land that
Bottineau stands on were Mr.. Brander
and Mr.. Sinclair.
Bottineau was named after a French
Indian surveyor named Bottineau. In
1888 there was a fire. It burnt most
all the stores. Elvin Mennie, 4th
Grade. y
This country before white pepole
came was unsettled and wild and
there were lots of buffaloes, deer,
wolves and other wild animals. The
Indians lived here then. They used to
make their living by fishing and hunt
ing buffalo and other game.
The first white people that settled
in this part of the country were Robt.
Brander B. Sinclair, Alex Mckay
and Alex lcR2 n. In the year of 1885
it opened up SO they could file on
homesteads Of 16O acres and it cost
them $14.OO TO prove up.
The first tOmnsite was laid out
along the creek below the foothills in
1883 and they named it Bottineau.
Our town is named after French
Indian by the name of Bottineau. The
man that our town was named after
died about two years ago in Duluth.
In moving Bottineau down here
they moved the buildings one by one.
They moved it here because when
they built the railroad track it was
too hilly to put it down up there.
The fl.bs store was Duil. by Bo0dy
and company from Devils Lake and
also another store by Chamberlain and
Stoughon and w. H. Mcintosh was
the manager Of it. The first house was
built by Robert Brander and that is
the house which Woodward's live in
now. The first church built was the
Baptist and the Catholic. The first
school house was built up at the other
townsite and after awhile it was
moved down here Fred Cathro was
the first teacher.
1888 they had a fire which burnt
down Boody and company, post office,
Pete Sfnlyss Hardware store and M.
O. Tibiletts Real Estate Office. Edna
Lien, 4th Grade.
