We have often been asked tosrecom-
mend some paper that would give the
Northwestern news, and the best in-
formation on the live issues of the day,
such a paper is the st. Paul GLOBE. Ii
S the very best paper published in the
Northwest; and while it is thoroughly
Democratic, it will not tolerate bose rule
in any form. In short, it is reliable,
newsy paper, and takes especial pains
to gather news, and urge measures that
will advance the interest of Dakota and
the whole Northwest.

FARGO, Sept. 1.-THE W. G. T. U.
territorial convention closed its. labors
last Monday evening after what APP
peared to be a very harmonious, in
structive and valuable session. Mrs. II.
NJ. Barker, of this city, was reelected
president, deserved compliment to an
ardent and self-sacrifcing labOrer.
Mrs. b. is a very modest. unassuming
lady, but earnest in her work, eloquent
in her addresses and possessed of that
magnetism which makes her leader in
the cause of Christian temperance. Miss
Addie Kinnear, who was elected cor
responding secretary, is also an earnest
and persistent worker for whatever she
believes
WILL BENEFIT MANKIND,
and especially the rising generation
Her education and past associations
peculiarly fit her for the position to
which she will do honor. She was the
candidate of the Central union of this
city and elected without opposition, a
well earned compliment to worthy
young lady. The resolutions adopted
by the convention were models of Eng
lish literature, clearly setting forth the
basis of their work, their hopes for the
future and ways and means necessary
to the accomplishment of the ends
desired. No doubt the result of the con
Vention

THEY DEPEND ON THE GLOBE

Good Democrat to the Legisla-



Special to the Globe.
MANDAN, Sept. 14.-POlitics in this
legislative district are looking interest
ing. Two years ago the Democrats
were successful in electing member of
the lower house, and they hope to be
able to do even more than that this
year. Unfortunately, there are no
Democratic papers in this section of the
country to preach good and wholesome
Democratic doctrine to the voters
in season and out of season, and we
have to depend upon the GLOBE en-
tirely. But there is some little good
Democratic sentiment here, and with
good men in the field something can be
done, especially in view of the dissen-
sions that exist in the Republican
ranks. Joseph Hare, of Bismarck, is
spoken of strongly for the council and
j. NJ. Quinn for the house, the second
member of the house to be chosen from
this side of the Missouri. This would
be strong ticket. +. Greene, the
Democratic nominee two years ago, has
gone over to the enemy, and therefore
IS not available.

MANDAN, OAK, Sept. 14.-While the
crops in this section of country are not
as heavy as was at one time looked for,
they are far superior to any that have
been reaped for several years. In view
of the increased prices that all produce
will bring, the farmers outlook is eX-
ceedingly reassuring. The frost that
did so much damage in the eastern part
of the territory did no damage here
whatever to the wheat, and the crop of
that cereal is large.
The readers of the GLOBE may pre-
pare themselves for reports of large and
destructive prairie fires in this region
shortly. The frost of the last day or
two will have done much to kill the
grass and rob it of its greenness, and
unless abundant rains come very
shortly the grass will almost get afire
from
SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION.
The ravines are fuller of grass and
the hills are clothed with greater abun-
dance than at any time within the
recollection of the Oldest settler.
While it is fact that there are thous-
ands of head of cattle that are consum-
ing the grass west of the river, what
they eat is as nothing to what is grown
such a year as this. Unfortunately the
farmers are not as careful as they
should be to pillow around their places
and burn off the grass. Many stacks
and farm houses will be burned in the
territory, which might be saved if their
owners would only take proper precau-
tions-precautions that mean simply
little labor and time.

The Suicide OF a Name,

What are you signing? A petit
ton to sell strong drink? Place
YOUR name to such a document!
Surely you forget its sacredness, the
company into which you introduce
it, and how certainly you will thus
nrofane it ! At this communicating
touch its glory will wlther; it will be
blasted with moral and social mil
dew. And so it ought; but spare
this suicide of your good name.
"Who gave you that name!" This
question from a certain well known
church catechism may call up many
q tender association. Your name
was given BY those whom love re-
members. They have passed, per-
haps. where terrestrial names give
place to the "new, new names" OF
a higher and holier sphere. Your
name was their selection. 1t was
not chosen at random. How they
thought, questioned and debated

lected again and again, only to try
another still. They were making
for YOU a choice for life, and hoped
to find name euphonious to the
ear, easy to the pen, pleasant to the
eve. and free from unfortunate sug-
oestion-a name for every good
place and for every good cause.
They searched the lists of ''proper
Names" and ran through the circle
of relatives and friends, but scarcely
any name seemed good enough for
| their little son. Whether at length
the name was borrowed from war
rior, statesman, philosopher, or phil
anthropist, from names historic,
apostolic, or inspired, we need not
inquire. The selection was made
at last, and with solemn, sprinklin9
of water, in the name of fine Holy
Trinity, by the reverent hands OF
the minister of God, amid tears
and prayers and smiles, the name
was given. 1t is written upon church
and family records, nestles between
the Testament" the old Bible
and you have answered to 1t eve
since. Your friends are not ASHAMED
of it. You have given it to your son
and it is passing down to posterlty

The Dictionary in the Schoolroom

Being interested in all that pertains to
the success and usefulness of our public
schools, we would call the attention of
educators to the value of early training in
the use of language and the need of more
thorough instruction in the knowledge of
words. We mean the English language,
and for the most part, good old Anglo
Saxon words.
We are constrained to believe that in
far too many schools the ability to name
words rapidly as they occur in the read
ing lesson, in the geography or the histo-
nv is allowed to suffice as the full meas
ure of instruction in the department OF
language, and the pupils thus pass to 9th
er fields without the ability to either cor
rectly spell or properly pronounce the
words they have used, and with no knowl-
edge at all of their true signification or
wealth of meaning.
The derivation or history of a word as
most delightful field for study and inves-
tigation, and through this the learners
ambition TO attain greater power and f1u-
ency in the use of words might be melted.
| We believe that the learned man is most
clearly distinguished from the ignorant
| by his greater command of language and
wider knowledge Of the power of words.
What better field can there be, then, for
the development Of greater usefulness
on the part of our public schools than
through larger and more intelligent
study of our own vocabulary?
Fortunately we have standard author
ity for the meaning and use of English
words, recognized and universally con-
coded court Of last resort, an open "Web-
ster,'' where are recorded for the use OF
all, the decisions Of the best writer's and
speakers upon the correct usage of every
item that goes to make up the beautiful
whole of our mother tongue.
We believe that our public schools will
attain a greater usefulness, and be more
successful in teaching language just II
ratio that they send their pupils to the
dictionary with more frequency, teaching
them to study it's record more Intelligent
" and abide by its decisions more stead
tasty. 1t needs no argument to prov
that every schoolroom should be supplied
with copy of Webster's Unabridge'
Dictionary, as the foundation for lmprov
ed language work. AS further mean
to this desirable end, we can make n
better recommendation than that ever
pupil should acquire the habit of constan
reference to authority by having at hi
desk a copy OF an abridged edition
Webster, and that every teacher shoul
be competent to give instruction in it
proper use.
: Without disparaging the other abrlde
! ments, we regard Webster's Academl
: Dictionary as the best of all for the hour
Iy use of pupils, and when it is remen
bered that its usefulness will survive I'd
pupils school days, and in the absence
the unabridged, become the family dl'
tionary, it is not too much to say that
: should be found on the desk of ever
pupil in our schools above the most pr
mary grades.

have my doubts whether any one
ever uses it habltually without being
injured by it; but it is perfectly GER
tain-all the doctors agree on this
that it is always injurious for boys.
| Here, for instance. is the word OF
one doctor, who thinks it no harm
for men to use it. ITO young per-
sons" he says, "under Twenty-Five
yedrs or so, tobacco, even in small
quantities, is so apt to disorder
health in some way or other, that
for such it should be considered gen.
orally harmful"
For the same reason, if | were a
bov. | would not drink beer or wine,
or any kind of alcoholic liquor. Here
too, there is a dispute among the
doctors. some of them saying that
men may sometimes drink wine OIL
beer without harm but here, too,
they all perfectly agree that for boys
such drinks are harmful. A great
many boys in this country are learn
ing to drink beer. Some of them
think there is no harm in it; but in
thousands of cases it has brought
deadly train of misery along with it
It has crippled many a mans bes'

The World of To-day.

How often do we hear people ex-
alt the glories of the past, and talk
as if retrogression and not progress
was the order of the present. AS
we'll say that Time itself could go
back down the track it has covered,
that the sun could reverse its course,
as to say that the world could make
q retrograde movement. The glorles
of the past are a precious record
but the glories of the present can
never suffer, nay, they must be more
glorifed, in the comparison. The
world to-day is better than it ever
has been, because man is better and
nobler, and both are moving on to
higher perfection. The shallow
thinker, oppressed for the time by
gloom of some sudden and disagree
able contingency, Immediately de-
clares that the world is not what it
was but all such shallow conclusions
do not deserve to be noticed. We
have but to look at the condition of
man throughout the world, and COM
pare it with what his condition was
in the past, to see how UNNECESSARILY
humanity has been benefited by the
fruit of the years. There is not a
channel of human effort but has
broadened and extended its useful
ness. Time has gone forward un-
erringlv, and keeping step with time
man has gone forward and upward
The education of the masses is the
uplifting lever that has contributed
and is contributing so much to the
elevation Of mankind, aud the more
universally education becomes diff
fused throughout the world, the more
general will be mans uplifting tt
the plane of honor. Here in this
country education is doing marvels
In other countries it is making it
Influence felt, although its forward
movement is retarded by the feuda
barriers of governmental system
that are a stumbling block to prog
ress. The one-man idea of the Oh
World with its divine right Of kings
and all the other legacies of the past
being uprooted, slowly, it is true
but uprooted nevertheless, and tn
people whose ignorance was the great
est security of their taskmasters ar
breaking away from the letters
feudalism. Well might Lord Broug
ham deliver his famous tribute t
the schooImaster. The schoolmaste
is now the hand that is letting in tn
LIGHT of education and before tn
blaze of that light the mists of ignc
rance and the clouds of oppresslo
are retreating. All the world wa
never better than it is to-day, an
what has been achieved thus far
but an earnest of what is yet to b
accomplished. The glories of tn
past are by no means to be forgo
ten; they were the heralds of tn
glories of the present, and are worth
of due honor in the record of til
worlds progress. AS the past stand
to the present, SO the latter stano
: to the future. We witness to-da
!, the glories which are but the pr
5 cursers of brighter ones to follow
until earth shall have fulfilled
; completeness the mission which
took up at the beginning, and whl(
: it will carry forward with ever-l
!. creasing lustre till time gives pla
