War Mothers Of Two Cities
Join in Petition to Com
missiOners

The six-milc concrete road con-
Meeting Bismarck and Mandan may
be dedicated to the soldiers of the
World War. Proposals have been
made to the boards Of county con-
missioncrs of Morton and Burlcigh
counties asking that the commits
sioners take joint action, and Chief
Engineer Black for the state high
way commission was visited by a
delegation urging the road be de-
clared memorial road.
Mrs. B. S. Nickerson of Mandan,
national memorial chairman; Mrs.
A. w. Schneider, president Of the
Bismarck chapter of the American
Legion Auxiliary and Mrs. +. H. Or
cutt, president of the Mandan chapt-
er, have represented the Auxiliary
in the negotiations.
The first step in connecting the
cities by modern road was the
building of the $1,5OO,OOO vehicular
bridge across the Missouri, COM
pleted three years ago. 1t was
named "North Dakota Liberty Men,
orial Bridge" Markers have been
erected at each end of the bridge
by the American War Mothers, COM
memorating the service of North
Dakota soldiers in the World War.
1t is now proposed to dedicate the
entire highway to them, and develop
plans for making it model, shaded
highway.
The road probably will be COM
pletely opened Wednesday. Dedica-
tion exercises, if any, will be held
Armistice Day.

FAMOUS PEACE
OFFICER DIES
Bill" Tilghman Brought Law
and Order to Oklahoma

Muskogee, Oklahoma, Nov. 3.-One
of the famous last gun fighters who
brought law and order into territor-
ial Oklahoma passed from the stage
Saturday when "Bill" Tilghmah was
shot down in front Of "Ma" Murphy's
dance hall in Cromwell, Oklahoma, an
oil boom town which until recently
was reliving some of the lurid chap
ters of early day border communities.
Tilghman died like most of the
pioneer peace officers of the South
west before him-with his boots on.
One Of Tilghman's brother officers
of the old days is left, "Uncle Bud"
Ledbetter and he is still in the har-
ness as sheriff of Muskogee county.
"Uncle Bud" recalled today how
he and his slain comrades had pa
trolIed the old territory as federal
officers. Ledbetter covered the In
dian Territory while "Bill" ranged
over Oklahoma territory, stamping
out lawlessness.

DECISION ON
CROSSINGS
is IMPORTANT
Supreme Court Upholds Au'
thOrity of State to Order
Separation

The decision of the supreme court,
rendered Saturday, upholding the law
giving the board of railroad commits
sioners authority to order separation
of grade crossings on primary high
ways when necessary to protect life,
is regarded as of much Importance
by that board in it's campaign to eli
inmate grade crossings in the state.
The crossing at issue was at Des
Lacs, where the Great Northern Rail-
way crosses the Theodore Roosevelt
highway.
The supreme court held that the
power delegated the board of railroad
commissioners was within the police
power of the state, and that it did
not interfere with interstate COM
merce and was not unconstitutional
because judicial power was delegated.
The court found, in the particular
case, that the traffic was heavy
enough to justify the board in or
dering the separation in that the
crossing was dangerous to life and
property.

Los Angeles, Nov. 3.-State and
federal health authorities today were
moving to the aid of Los Angeles in
it's grim battle to block the spread
Of an outbreak of pneumonia plague
that at last reports had claimed a
total of 81 victims in the Mexican
quarter of the city. Ten cases under
treatment at the General Hospital
are said to be critical today.
. DR.. w. H. Kellogg and DR.. c. H.
Halliday, state health department
experts, arrived from San Francisco
Yesterday and were to be joined to-
day by DR.. Walter Dickie, also of
the state health department..
Three squads of policemen, about

zone day and night. Food and other
necessaries are sent through the po-
lice Gordon under strict supervision
while within the lines and in hospi-
tai wards surgeons, doctors and or
derles 60 about wearing masks to
ward off infection. =
Squirrels Blamed
Ground squirrels probably carried
the disease to Los Angeles and COM
municated it TO rats, who in turn
transmitted it TO the first human
victim through the intermediary
agency of a flee, DR.. Kellogg said in
discussing the history of the plague
in the United States.
The Los Angeles outbreak of pncu-
monte plague, according to DR.. Kel-
logg, is a direct heritage from the
Oakland plague of 1919. 1t was in
Oakland where Is cases, all fatal,
were reported, that the pneumonia
form of plague first appeared in
this country, the Doctor explained.
Heretofore there have been cases Of
bubonic plague, an allied malady,
which reached San Francisco from
the Orient in 1900 and years later
appeared in New Orleans and Gal
weston.
The bubonc plague, though stamp
ed out among humans in San Fran
cisco, was communicated to ground
squirrels, probably through rats
from the city and since then it has
been to certain extent prevalent
among ground squirrels in several
counties in California.
Predicted Outbreak
Because Of this fact, DR.. Kellogg
and other authorities have frequent
ly predicted that unless the disease
could be eXterminated among the
ground squirrels there would some
time be an outbreak among humans.
An extensive rat determination cam
paign is feature of the campaign
DR.. Kellogg and his aids are planning
to wage. Los Angeles is the only
part of the United States where the
pneumonic-plague has appeared, ac-
cording to DR.. Kellogg, although it
has claimed thousands of victims in
the Orient in the last few years.
1t is distinguished from bubonic
plague, in that it attacks the lungs,
whereas the bubonic form attacks the
glands. It symptoms are close to
pneumonia although its progress is
more rapid and it's vitality is much
higher.

Two Vice-Prcsidential Candi-

ALL SIDES CONFIDENT
Coolidge Forces Claim a Land
Slide for President in
National Battle

Washington. Nov. 3.-(By the A.
P.)-The campaign of 1924 is pass
ing through it's final hours in a
swirl of activities destined to make
political history.
For the first time two presidential
candidates, President Coolidge and
John w. Davis, are preparing to ad-
dress an election eve message to the
same audience-a radio audience that
will extent the country over.
Two candidates for the Vice-presi-
dency, likewise are upsetting prece-
dent by continuing through pre>elec-
tion Monday their speaking cam
paigns. Governor Bryan is COM
pleting a swing through his home
state of Nebraska and Senator Wheel
er is winding up his :oast to coast
speech making tour in Baltimore.
LaFollette to Home
Senator LaFollette, having laid his
case finally before the people in q
Saturday night address at Cleveland
has returned to his home in Madi.
= son, Wisconsin, and Charles G
: Dawes is awaiting in Evanston the
verdict in tomorrow's balloting.
Managers for all three of the pre-
sideptial tickets, after. making the
usual prediction claims to victory
devoted much of today to perfecting
machinery to get out the vote. A
fair weather prospect for most of the
country fitted in with these efforts
and appeared to presage record
vote.
Besides making a decision among
the three presidential candidates, the
voters will choose complete men,
bership among the House of Repre-
sentatives, "a Senators, "a Governors
of states and host of local officials.
ku klux Issue
In several states the local cam
paigns have made almost complete
obliteration Of party lines. The La
Toilette movement, seeking strength
from both of the old parties and
Aelping Democrats in some localities
and Republicans in others, has turn
ed topsy turvy the established order
in more than one political communi-
ty in the west. In other localities
the Ku Klux Klan issue has operated
with equal force to tear down party
alignments and cloud the outcome
with uncertainty
The Republican claim to national
victory is based on an assumption
that Coolidge and Dawes will sweep
both the east and the west and cut
into the bordcrland of the solid
south.
~ The Democrats declared Davis and
Bryan will take the border states as
we'll as the south and will nose out
victory by combination of doubt
full states in the east and west.
The major strength of the LaFol-
lette and Wheeler is conceded to be
in the Northwest, with Wisconsin as
its corner stone.
