OCTOBER 1 4 TO 13, 1912. TAFT AND ROOSEVELT The contest in New Jersey today is one of national interest. Three can didates for the republican nomination for 4he presidency have been disturb ing the echoes, and the voters are casting their ballots. The result, it is admitted, will be close. One of itihe 'interesting features of the whole presidential campaign 'has been 'the little (figure cut by iLa lette, who was set forth by some of the real "insurgents" of the north west as the one and only presidential candidate. He is 'hardly in the "also ran" class. The Tribune has all the time taken the view that La Follette was (not seriously viewed by the voters of the whole country as presidential material. And so the contest has nar rowed down .to Taft and Roosevelt. Both are strong men, but in a dif ferent way. Mr. Taft is judicial, sane, conservative, anxious that all the peo ple of the United States sihall profit equally by its daws. We do not be lieve any president of the United States was ever actuated by a finer desire to administer affairs of the country for the benefit of the wlhole people. 'Mr. Roosevelt is energetic, impul sive, ambitious, fiery and magnetic. He appeals strongly to the red blooded mass of the people, as is proven by Ibis tremendous campaign. Of the two candidates we believe the country 'would thrive longest, fare best and in the end round out its destiny as a ire public better with men of ithe Taft kind' than witih such impulsive lead ers as Mr. Roosevelt. iBut whatever we may say of Roose velt, ihe draws to Mm always a great following, and lie lie one of the 'cen tury's most remarkable public men. But we think the country is now in need, more of constructive legislation, following Mr. Roosevelt's activities in bis former terms, than of more dis turbance. We already know what the problems are before One 'people. The thing to do is to work them out. THE COMMI6SIONER8HIP The decision of the supreme court in the matter of the county commis sionersbtps in Burleigh county is in teresting, and shows again the wis dom of refraining from hasty judg ment and noisy declamation because of political bias. The supreme court has decided that the old board of county commissioners acted legally In filling the vacancies that existed after the voters' had declared for new dis triots and created them. Because of ithe anxiety of political partisans to make capital for them selves and their factions, the county any many of its citizens have been put to expeiiee and inconvenience, and many have been the declarations that wrong was being done and the peo ple's rights disregarded. Now it seems that the people's rights were safe guarded by the action of the board, that the appointments were legal and that tine partisans of faction and dis order were the ones who placed an un necessary inconvenience and burden, both upon the board and the citizens of the county. We think it would be well in the future if Che voters of the county would beware when noto riously interested partisans and poli ticians cry "wolf." as was done In this commissionership case. Judge Winchester's decision of this case was upheld by the supreme court, whose descislon the Tribune published yesterday It will be important 'that the voters of the county keep tine facte of tlhis case in mind' in the campaign now tin progress It will enable them to "size up" the judgment and capac ity of some of those w!ho were instru mental, in bringiing this case and W'ho are now candidates) for office. ENTITLED TO SUPPORT The report received from Washing ton that the Borah bill would be re ported favorably out of the (house and senate conference ds of special inter est to 'North Dakotans, especially those who are now residiing upon '(homesteads in the state. The Borah bill provides that a homesteader may prove up on his claim after three years of actual residence instead, of five as formerly. Attinetime Senator iBorah introduced his biil'l in the sen ate iCongressiman L. B. Hanna intro duced a like measure in the bouse of representatives. Mr. Hanna has been leading ithe fight for the enactment of the bill in the 'house, and latest re ports would indicate tihat Ms efforts will meet with success. Mr. Hanna has always been inter ested in the welfare of the Ihomestead era and farmers of North Dakota, and ibis interest is shown by the good leg islation of practical value to North Dakotans that has resulted from hiis work in congress. iLouds B. Hanna comes, before the people of iNorth Dakota and asks them to elect him their governor. He is cer tainly entitled to tlheir support. His capability ihas been proven. He is a slhrewd, ef&Lcent business man with years of practical experience to guide him. This state needs a business ad ministration and Mr. Hanna is the 'logical candidate. The insurgents no doubt saw the necessity of calling an elimination banquet at Bismarck early in the 'pri mary campaign. Not only are. Dheir forces dangerously divided over con gressional candidates in the 'Second but the repeated' reports that Tom Marshall is supporting Buchan an for governor, while 'Senator Gron na is supporting the candidacy of C. A. Johnson, probably leads them to believe that the struggle for superior ity among their party leaders is al ready showing signs of damaging ef fect. Fol-district, Members of congress must feel that there is no use of trying to compete for public attention with the men who are toon to assemble in national con ventions. NAILED THE WRON MAN. The Reporter Didn't Get an Interview, but DidGet a Story. The late Representative Bingham of Philadelphia, who was for many years the "father of the bouse." served In congress with the late General Meyer, who for years represented a New Or leans district In the bouse. The two generals, one a Yankee, the other a Confederate, were not only good friends, but bore a strong resemblance to each other, each being short, chesty looking, nattily dressed and having a pink bald bead. One day the correspondent of a Philadelphia paper was called away from Washington and left a Baltimore man to do bis work. The substitute received a telegram from Philadelphia to interview General Bingham on what congress would do with a bill, then pending, vitally affecting the Phil adelphia mint Hurrying through Statuary ball, the "sub," who was new to Washington, ran into General Meyer. The Louisi ana statesman was a little grouchy and when asked for an interview about the Philadelphia mint exploded. The reporter insisted. "I don't care a about the Phila delphia mint, I tell you!" shouted General Meyer and tore himself away. The story the correspondent sent to Philadelphia that night sizzled, and the Philadelphia paper the next morning on the front page heralded to the world how profanely Indifferent to the Philadelphia mint General Bingham was. It took Bingham a month to square himself with his constituents. —New TorkSvorld. Two of Them. His companions bent over bun with pitiful earnestness and stared beseech ingly Into his waxen features. Again came the flutter of the eyelids, but this time his will mastered approaching death.

Zimmerly, as Clerk of the Dist rict Court of Sheridan County, and S. L. Nuchols, as Presiding Judge thereof, Respondents. On an application for writ of cer tiorari to review proceedings of the district court of Sheridan County, and an alleged excess of jurisdiction of said court concerning a proceeding there pending for removal of petition er as a county commissioner of said county, it is HELD: 1. The appearance by defendant in said removal proceedings at the time fixed in the notice of hearing therein, and the filing with the clerk by the defendant in said proceedings of written objections challenging the sufficiency of the accusations to con stitute grounds for removal under the statute, Sec. 9646, R. C. 1905, all made under a purported special ap pearance, is the equivalent of a gen eral appearance and the filing of a de murrer to said written accusations, and thereby confers jurisdiction In said proceedings even though no jur isdiction over the person existed pri or thereto: 2. Without determining whether an order continuing said proceeddngs and holding defendants to have waiv ed the right to trial by jury is void able or void, the portion of the order holding the right to trial by jury to have been waived is contrary to the fact and premature in that the time has not yet. arrived when defendants may be asked to enter plea to said accusations for the reason that a de murrer in substance is pending In said proceedings and not ruled upon or disposed of and at least such por tion of the order should be vacated. 3. The time 'within which the tri al provided by Sec. 9646 s'hould have been had on the accusations in the proceedings below having expired, pending hearing herein, therefor, on the state's application, a thirty day extension of the time within which to try and determine the issues there involved in said removal proceedings is granted the same to be calculated from the date of the filing of the re mittitur 'herein in the lower court. 4. No excuse of jurisdiction ap pearing the writ is denied with no costs taxed. (Syllabus by the court.) On application for writ of certior ari an order to show cause was is sued, on petitioner's application, re turnable before this court, and on hearing Is quashed and the writ de nied.

Plaintiff and Respondent, vs. The German Alliance Insurance Co., Defendant and Appellant. 1. The local pgent of the defend ant insurance ompany was fairly and fully informed of tbe plaintiffs' title to the property Insured, and accepted the premium and issued the policy thereafter. HELD that the knowl edge of the agent was the knowledge of the company, and the company is therefore estopped to set up. as a de fense to a loss, facts of which they had knowledge before the issuance of the policy. Leisen v. Ins. Co., 20 N. D. 316, 127 N. W*.. 837, 30 L. R. A. .. S.) 539 followed. 2. Evidence examined and found that plaintiffs became the owners of the building insured, either upon a parol contract or upon a written contract of very similar terms, but whether the title was obtained either way was immaterial in this case wherein it appears that the title was in fact obtained either way and the company was fully informed of its nature before the policy was issued.
