GOLDEN VALLEY CHRONICLE
New York World
and Hughes
Washington, Oct. 4. The Rep
ublican 'Publicity Association,
through its persistent, Hon. Jon
athan, Bourne, Jr., today gave put
the following statement at its
Washington Headquarters:
"Probably the most ardent sup
porter of Woodrow Wilson and
the most bitter opponent of
Hughes is the New. York World,
the leader of the Democratic
press. In view of its present
lycritizism pf Mr. Hughes, for
purely partisan reasons, every
American voter, of whatever
party, should read that paper's
estimate of Hughes and his work
in the past. The following are
excerpts from the columns of
that paper during the period of
its ownership and control by the
iate Mr. Pulitzer, who requested
:n
his will that Mr. Hughes serve
as a trustee of his estate, a posi
tion which Mr. Hughes declined:
Quotations from the New
:.f
be
at the Wolf Ranch on the -NW1-4 NE
1-4 of section 18 Township 13S, Range
103.
Williams Pecinct. comprising Town
ship 136. Range 105. The voting
place for said precinct to be at the
T. Knapp residence on section 10,
Township 136. Range 105.
Bull Run Township, comprising
Township 136. Range 106. The vot
ing place for said Township to be at
the Williams School House on section
14. Township 136. Range 106
The following is a list of officers
to he elected at said General Election
Congressional Officers Ares
nart
York
World.
"September 18, 1905—'Hughes'
Admirable Work,. 'His admira
ble work as counsel for the Gas
Investigating Committee justified
the people in accepting from him
equally meritorious service as
Counsel for the Insurance invest
igating Committee. The public
has not been disappointed in Mr.
Hughes. Ife has justified every
expectation. The World doubts
any legislative investigation in
the history of the State was ever
conducted with, more ability or
more actuely or more rationally|
is evident that Mr. Hughes is
^oing to the very bottom of in
surance corruption, and that
when he lias finished, the policy
holders and the people will know
for the first time how these great
corporations are managed.'
"October 7, 1905—'The Repub
lican Ticket'. 'The Republican
vote ticket is one to appeal to
the intelligence rather than to
the emotions. His (conduct of
the gas "investigation last spring
was masterly. Mr. Hughes con
duct of the legislative investiga
tion of insurance corruption is
of the history of the day
it has attracted the attention of
•lie entire country.
"October 8, 1905.—'Charles E.
Hughes'. 'His nomination for
Mayor, first suggested by the
World, reflects credit upon the
Republican City campaign. The
extroardinary service Mr. Hughes
has rendered to the cause of
truth, and justice in awakening
the moral sense of the nation
against crimes of cupidity and of
trust betrayed, must make a far
search for a parallel. He repre
sents opposition to the corruption
of bossism of enmity to one-man
rule in financial and commercial
chairs and of implacable hostil
ity to financial crimes. In the
interest of public and general
welfare the World hopes that "Sirf
Hughes will accept.'
"October 10. 1905.—'A Man
like Hughes.' "The sacrifice was
too great. The World regrets
that Mr. Hughes is not free to
make the race, but neither his re
fusal nor the brevity of the time
remaining alters by one iota the
basic fact. The Mayor of New
York ought to be of the Hughes
type. He would let light into all
the dark and secret and festering
places of loot and plunder. He
would drive grafters and para
sites from the City Hall. He
would destroy the alliance be
tween IV public-service corpor
"ons ."ivl the city government.
Thet would be no McAdoos
tlv" would be a better police
Derailment and better protection
to homes. New York needs such
a Mayor.'
"October 11, 1905.—'He still
Hughes to the line, let the chips
fall where they may.'
October 5, 1906—'Mr. Hughes
and the Independents'. (In re-ac
ceptance speech when nominated
for Governor )—'Mr. Hughes'
personal force shows in every
^ne of his speech. He is expli
cit and emphatic in what he says
shall be and shall not be done
after he is elected governor. He
deals in none of the Doliticians
over-promises of the demoggue's
cheap phrases. He has the pow
er to convince men that the bos
ses need expect nothing from
him. "No individuals," he de
clares, "or group of individuals
and no private interest will be
permitted to dictate my policy.
I shall decide and act according
to my conscience and as I believe
the public interest requires." Mr
Hughes' strength is in the ap
peal he makes to the intelligence
and common sense of independ
ent voters. For this appeal he is
well equipped by his character,
his training, and his record. The
World shares in his faith in ap
nealing to "the common sense of
the American people, which has
never failed to express itself de
cisively in a great crisis."
"October 6, 1906—'Mr. Hughes'
positive methods as a reformer
arc known to all men. He dealt
•villi insurance corruption and
high-finance crookedness as re
lentlessly as he now unmasks
office seeking demagogism. His
record is to be read in the sta
tutes passed at Albany.'
"October 8, 1906.—'Mr Hughes
on the Stump.' 'He has appealed
"ot as a partisan to partsisans
but as a citizen to citizens. The
addresses of the scholarly lawr
vsr have been simple and straight
forward, strong in sincerity, eff
ective in earnestness.'
"Oct. 11, 1906—'Mr. Hughes
said (in his Buffalo speech, Oct.
10, '06) he would endeavor to
have more money appropriated
to force labor laws. The laws
should be enforced cost what en
forcement may. Mr. Hughes
promises nothing that he cannot
nd will not perform.'
"October 12, 1906—'When Mr.
hughes promises to giveth peo
ple of New York a clean, honest
administration, ifree f)om boss
nile and corporation Jinfliioiiec,
they can accept his word. His
record is that of a man who
keeps his word faithfully and
scrupulously. When has he. ever
roken a public promise oi re
pudiated a public pledge?
"October 29, 1906—'Rooseve'.t
or Hughes,. 'No one who knows
how strong the President's
(Rosevelt's) great fight against
eorporaled abuse has made hi
•villi his countrymen, can (louSt
l!iat his manly declaration will
bt to Mr. Hughes also as a tower
strength.*
"June 3, 1907.—'Governor
Hughes has rendered a high'y
meritorious, service not only to
New York but to the nation. The
edit for the Utilities bill belongs
largely to him. He initiated the
measure and sketched the general
ulan of supervision. It was his
frank and convincing appeals to
ublic opinion tthat forced the
hands of a reluctant legislature
It was his unyielding couragc
that prevented a disastrous com.
1'iomise.. It is only five months
since Mr. Hughes became chief
executive of New York. The
World cannot' believe, in the light
of the events of those five months
that there are many voters left
•«i the State who would wish that
the issue of the election had re
sulted otherwise than it did.'
CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES
Information received by the
North Dakota Development
League* Press Bureau recently is
to the effect that California has a
extension svstem which lias found
that certified seed potatoes are
worth 50 to 80 cents more a bush

The difference in the price will
be greater as time goes on and
"eople in general will find out
the value of certified seed. The

BAD LAND PAINTS MAY
REVOLUTIONIZE INDUSTRY
Slope (ounty N»\vs—AVIier.
James L. Tucker of St. Paul, Alt'
White of Dickinson and Fred
White of Amndon recently trav
eled through the Bad Lands of
North Dakota, they said that they
iocated something which was just
as good as a goldmine, but would
not tell the exact nature of their
find. A little while ago the News
stated that the Bad Lands were
just coming into their own. The
following 'article, clipped from
the St. Paul Dispatch and which
appeared in a number of other
'lalies the past week, will bear
the truth of this statement and
nerhaps throw a little light upon
I he "finds" made by the above
mentioned gentlemen.
A paint-grinding machine is in
operation at Dickinson already.
sample of the Bad Land paint
may be seen on the city hall in
New England, which was recently
given a coat of paint made from
the Bad Land pigments.
St. Paul. Sept. 15.—The discov
ery of vast pigment beds by sev
eral St. Paul business men, may
revolutionize the paint business
if the world. The pigment beds

National Bank building, has been
promised $2,000,000 backing by
bankers and wholesale houses in

If the samples prove to
be what is known as American
pigment, nothing will come of
the venture, as there is no mar
ket for that product among paint
Manufacturers.
The fields discovered by Mr,
Tucker, are the results of years
of burning of the lignite coal

to make paints of every color
the rainbow are in the fields
and some- excellent paint has
been made from the pigment
from mixing il with linseed oil,
it is said.
A thorough test and analysis
of the pigment is now being made
by the best chemists in the north
west to determine its value. If
it is valuable, a large factory will
be erected at once in St. Paul.
FALL PLANTED ONIONS.
Certain kinds of onions can be
planted in the fall, according to
a market gardner near Grand
Forks, that will be ready for use
ealy in Ihe spring. It is not gen
erally known that onions of the
rerennial variety may be planted
in the autumn, and will be ready
'"r use almost as soon as the
snow is off the pround in the
spring. In fact, they have been
found to make quite a start un
der the snow.
The sets of this variety grow
at the end of the seed stalks, r!
should be gathered as soon as
formed, and kept in a cool, dr*
place until September or Octob
er. A rich bed should be mode
and the sets planted and thev will
be ready for use before the or
rtinarj' onions are grown. Wh
these onions are perennial t.-.d
increase by roots and tin sets,
they are more tender when a new
bed is put out every year instinl
of allowing them to multiply in
thir own fashion.
These onions never grow lart*.-»
bulbs. In fact the bulb is little
'I any larger than the stem. But
is white and tender early in
the spring. It is slightly stronger
in flavor than ordinary oniois
but if this is disliked, soaking
ihe onion for an hour or two in
salt water iust before using will
dissipate some of the flavor.

NEW NORMAL SCHOOL
FOR DICKINSON.
Southwestern North Dakota
cities are giving this slate a
splendid exposition of the prin
ciple of community interest, in
their whole hearted support of
the proposed constitutional
amendment by which a new
state normal school would be lo
cated at Dickinson.
Every city in the district, and
it comprised nearly a fourth of
Ihe entire state, is united in favor
if Dickinson for the new school
—all local selfishness and local
ambition being abandoned that
the district may obtain the edu
cation facilities required to pro
perly maintain the state's edu
cational interests
Wrtyh. no /state !school .ploser
lhan Valley City on the east and
Minot on the north, Dickinson
is in the heart of a tremendous
territory that is now denied facil
ities for the proper education of
its young people The territory
includes all that section west and
south of the Missouri River, and
with the tremendous growth ex_
perienced during the past few
years, sponsers of the normal
school movement are possessed
with very forceful arguments in
favor of it.
The United front presented by
Ihe southwest has carried their
movement to marked successes
already. Twice the state legisla
ture has passed favorably on the
proposition of establishing the
new normal school: both great
•political parties in this state have
declared themselves favorable,
and the state board of rgents has
recommended the school.
It is because the people of the
southwest have recognized the
-ower of united action that they
'iave been able to advance their
"auses so satisfactorily up to the
present time. The normal school
intendment needs only favorable
mention in the coming general el
Uon to become law—and there is
every reason to believe that the
peonle of the state will approve
of the plan bcause of the gener
ally recognized need for the
school.
