PHRASE MAKING OF DEMOCRATS IS ORITICIZED Harding Contrasts ‘it With Re- ‘publican Performance in Ohio Speech Jackson, 0., Oct. 20.—Democratic “phrase-making” and Republican “performance” “were contrasted by Sendtor Harding in a speech here to- day lauding the protective tariff as an example of Republican accomplish- ment. \, i “The truth is,” he said, “that with all the progressive tongues and all fthe literary idealism of our nents it stiil is the Republican party, not only as to tariff protection but as to every other kind of protection which~stands as the safeguard of America. -It is’ a’simple matter to make phrases; it is much more difti- cult to ‘perform, but it is on their re- spective records as phrase-makers sand performers that the Democratic: forces of this campaign and the Re- publican party opposed each other.” i aia JUDGE POLLOCK, STATE ‘PIONEER, DIES IN FARGO \ (Continued irom page one) . convention committee on temperance, headed by Arne P. ‘Haugen, which/ committee framed the prohibition clause. North Dakota’s ‘first -so-called_pro hibitory liquor law was in the nature by the Dakota territorial assembly in 1887. Several counties adopted the provisions of the ‘aw, voting the saloons out. Prior to that~time two ‘or three cities in the territory had prohibition under special charters. At the time the constitutional ,as- sembly ‘convened there were 166 saloons in Cass, Traill and Steele ‘counties, which'at thattime were in- cluded in a singfe judicial district. Shortly after the county option law was passed, congress passed the act by “which the territory was divided. and the states of North and South Dakota created. \ Leaders Baéked Him North Dakota temperance workers were not slow to realize the opening afforded them, and they backed the election of R. M. Pollock to the con- stitutional assembly from Cass county. ae While constitutional conyention members?Were being clected, the con-! victions of the candidates on the pro- hibition question were thoroughly scanned, and at a convention of about a hundred representatives, held Grand Forks, ft was soe mined te frame ‘the prohibition constitution for a separate vote of the people. In the assembly, an effort was made to have the prohibition clause made a-part of the state constitution by a single vote, this move being op- posed by Mr. Pollock. . Speaking before tiie constitutional assembly, in support of an indepen- dent vote on the liquor issue, Mr. Pollock said; “It may as well be conceded that no advantage would be gained by our putting this into the ‘body of ‘the constitutional unles:: a majority of the people are in favor of it, for the incorporation of a pro- hibitory clause in the constitution, if we dd not have a majority of the peo- ple in favor of it, will be useless.” In the campaign that followed the constitutional convention, R. M. Pol-- lock took an active part. The vote was 18,552 for prohibition, and 17,393 against prohibition.

The city commission, taking part in the controversy’ of the justness | ot the bill, demands that power bej Turnished for the booster pump, as @| matter of public interest, in case of | fire. The letter of President Lucas, ‘of | the commission, under which City At- torney O'Hare is to act, is as fol-} lows: “Should the Hughes Electric com- pany as per their-petition of Monday night, shut, off ‘the power from the booster pump and thereby endanger ; the property. and lives ‘of the citizens of Bismarck, I command you to pro- ceed at once'to take such steps as are necessary and lawful to protect the rights -of the citizens of Bismarck, | !their property and their lives.
