Rev. A. O. Birchenough of St. Thom- as, “The Fighting Parson” and enemy SUrninued on Page Seven) i 1 Koes “Let us now praise men of re- | nown, and our fathers in their | generation. : | Such as have borne rule in their | dominions, men of greater power, | and embued with their wisdom, | showing forth in the prophets the | dignity of prophets. | And ruling over his presant {| people and by the strength of wis- | dom, instructing the people in | most holy words. 1 Their bodies are buried in | peace, and their name liveth unto generation and generation.” | (Ecclesiasticus 44: 1-3-4-14.) “I knew not what thoughts to ex-| press, or, words to clothe them in. on this solemn occasion, as we group; around this mound of sorrow, to bidj a last farewell to our father and our! friend,” said Archbishop Glennon. | “Words of protest, some may say,} since it is nature’s way to protest against death, to treat it as any en-| things, the Master, of Life and Death, | holding the living and the dead equal- he hig children, can only bow in low- liest reverence to His Supreme de- cree, j “Though modest man, he knows not why He thinks he was not made to die And thou hast made him—Thou ‘are just.” “But if we may not protest, may we not at least voice our regrets? Ought we not to sorrow and speak, that sor- row so deep and widespread today, for the prophet also is silent—for the prince who has fallen—for the man who is gone? “Beyond our own hearts’ promp- tings we have for it as examples the noblest names in history. ‘Jacob mourned for his son many days, the congregation mourned for Aaron; and amuel for Saul; while David’s plaints and tears were his daily offer- ing to the memory of his son Ab- salom. And of the Blessed Master, too, when they brought him news that Lazarus, His Friend, was dead, St. John records the love and the tears of Christ—‘And Jesus wept.” “With these Examples before us, of friend sorrowing for friends, and if again sorrow is to be measured by the merits of the dead and the extent of loss, then difficult must it be for us fo suppress our emotions as we ponder over the life, the love, the service, the sacrifice of James Car- dinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Balti- more. These are high sounding titles you will say, meaning such of dignity and power; but just now our thoughts do rather turn to the kindly gentle old man, whose coming was joy— whose presence was a benediction. (Continued on Page Seven) | Vehicular bridge may not be obtained NOW OUTLINED Ninety Men are Employed in Work on Missouri River Structure i 90 MEN. ARE EMPLOYED) A good idea of the way in which the approach will be made to the Bismarck on the east side of the river, The construction force is working on the east approach to the bridge Proper, and the curved course of, the approach is outlined by the expansion pits, beginnings of the approach sup- ports and wood forms for concrete. The approach on the Bismarck side will have a 28-foot paved roadway. From the high bank it will span the riverside railroad track. The en- trance to the bridge proper will be 14ft higher than the level of the road now, and there will be a 10 1-2 foot grade on the pavement, The paving will be banked, making a fairly wide curve in reaching the bridge, The approach roadway will have all the elements of a motor speedway. On the Mandan side the approach will curve an op- posite direction, and while the bridge will be straight, the general effect will be that of a half figure eight. The county, Bismack,|Mandan and the state may vie for the priv}lege-oi, policing for the bridge. A temptation; to the motor speeder will be offered by the smooth pavement and banked: roadway and a speed cop ought to be a lively revenue producer. May Get Idea of Height Persons {viewing the bridge site now may also obtain a good idea of the height of the bridge trom the riv~ er’s surface. Pier No. 1 on the east side, will be 60.3 above low water. At the present time steel reinforcing rods reach to about the height of the bridge level, or about 54 feet above the water as it was today) The total width of the bridge will be 40 feet, and the horizontal length, about 2,000 feet. 90 Men Employed Since the temporary bridge and ma- chinery was pulled out of the river) in the expectation that the ice would) go out very shortly, the construcifion force has devoted all its time to the construction of the approaches, and the work is getting well under way, About 90 men now are employed on the bridge. An example of how to move a garage; quickly was given at the bridge site this morning when the steel cable of a great derrick was hooked to ropes around a garage large enough to hold one car and set it upon the road, about |, 30 feet above its previous resting’ place. vention began its second day of de- liberation at 9 a, m. today. Caucus on Plan This program-was decided on at a coucus held early this morning by several groups of Independent forces and was to be submitted to the con- vention. No vote on the recall until afternoon was forecast by Theo. G. Nelson Secretary of the Independent voters Association. All plans to attempt to recall all non partisan officials, including three su- preme court justices, appeared to have been abandoned, but the pro- posed initiative measures on opera- | tion of the state owned industries and to make impossible the sale of more bonds by the present Nonpartisan‘ administration before a recall likely will bessubmitted as well as a con- stitutional amendment to make th bonds of \North Dakota direct obliga- tions on the credit of the entire state instead of on the industries as at pres- ent’ It is thought such an amend- ment would make the state bonds marketable and would give the inde- pendents control. Anti-recall advocates tell us should let the Non-partisans fry their own fat”, Treadwell Twichell of Fargo, said in a plea for a recall. “However we are in that fat and on that same fire with them and will lose our grease along with them. North Dakota is ill, mentally and physically and I see the recall as the succa3stul instrument for ’&n operation to remove the source of that trouble.’ S. J. Doyle of Fargo summed up the charges against the Non-partisan ad- ministration. The Non-partisan of- ficials have betrayed the trust of the atate and have robbed our institutions, Doyle asserted. Speculation Under Ban While speculation is under the ban as to the probable choice of cane didates to be nominated by the Inde- pendent voters of the state in case the recall is ordered, R. A, Nestos, of Minot, appeared to be. in greatest favor among Independent voters’ as- sociation leaders as the choice for candidate of the Independent forces. Tom Hall, Sec’y of State also J. Gronna, of Lakota, who was defeated for re-election as United States Senat or by Dr. E. F. Ladd, of Fargo; J. F. T. Oconnor of Grand Forks, candi- date of the Independents for governor last fall and who was defeated by overnor Frazier by less than 5,000 votes, and former Judge W. C. Craw- ford, of Dickinson, were mentioned as other possibilities for the nomination as governor. George Schafer of Watford City, who is secretary of the present c vention; Charles Fisk,of Minot, Ju W.
